The one I am thinking of particularly is entered by a Gothic - arched gateway of aged brick and stone. You pass from the heat and glare of a big, open square into a cool, dark cavernwhich extends as far as the eye can see, losing itself in the shadowy distance. Little donkeys with harmoniously tinkling bells thread their way among the throngsof people entering and leaving the bazaar. The roadway is about twelve feet wide, but it is narrowed every few yards by little stalls where goods of every conceivable kind are sold. The din of the stall-holder; crying their wares, of donkey-boys and porters clearing a way for themselves by shouting vigorously, and of would-be purchasers arguing and bargaining is continuous and makes you dizzy.Then as you penetrate deeper into the bazaar, the noise of the entrance fades away, and you come to the muted cloth-market. The earthen floor, beaten hard by countless feet, deadens the sound of footsteps, and the vaulted mud-brick walls and roof have hardly any sounds to echo. The shop-keepers speak in slow, measured tones, and the buyers, overwhelmed by the sepulchral atmosphere, follow suit .One of the peculiarities of the Eastern bazaar is that shopkeepers dealing in the same kind of goods do not scatter themselves over the bazaar, in order to avoid competition, but collect in the same area, so that purchasers can know where to find them, and so that they can form a closely knit guild against injustice or persecution . In the cloth-market, for instance, all the sellers of material for clothes, curtains, chair covers and so on linethe roadway on both sides, each open-fronted shop having a trestle trestle table for display and shelves for storage. Bargaining is the order of the cay, and veiled women move at a leisurely pace from shop to shop, selecting, pricing and doing a little preliminary bargaining before they narrow down their choice and begin the really serious business of beating the price down.It is a point of honour with the customer not to let the shopkeeper guess what it is she really likes and wants until the last moment. If he does guess correctly, he will price the item high, and yield little in the bargaining. The seller, on the other hand, makes a point of protesting that the price he is charging is depriving him of all profit, and that he is sacrificing this because of his personal regard for the customer. Bargaining can go on the whole day, or even several days, with the customer coming and going at intervals .One of the most picturesque and impressive parts of the bazaar is the copper-smiths' market. As you approach it, a tinkling and banging and clashing begins to impinge on your ear. It grows louder and more distinct, until you round a corner and see a fairyland of dancing flashes, as the burnished copper catches the light of innumerable lamps and braziers . In each shop sit the apprentices –boys and youths, some of them incredibly young –hammering away at copper vessels of all shapes and sizes, while the shop-owner instructs, and sometimes takes a hand with a hammer himself. In the background, a tiny apprentice blows a bi-, charcoal fir e with a huge leather bellowsworked by a string attached to his big toe -- the red of the live coals glowing, bright and then dimming rhythmicallyto the strokes of the bellows.Here you can find beautiful pots and bowls engrave with delicate and intricate traditional designs, or the simple, everyday kitchenware used in this country, pleasing in form, but undecorated and strictly functional. Elsewhere there is the carpet-market, with its profusion of rich colours, varied textures and regional designs -- some bold and simple, others unbelievably detailed and yet harmonious. Then there is the spice-market, with its pungentand exotic smells; and the food-market, where you can buy everything you need for the most sumptuous dinner, or sit in a tiny restaurant with porters and apprentices and eat your humble bread and cheese. The dye-market, the pottery-market and the carpenters' market lie elsewhere in the maze of vaulted streets which honeycomb this bazaar. Every here and there, a doorway gives a glimpse of a sunlit courtyard, perhaps before a mosque or a caravanserai , where camels lie disdainfully chewing their hay, while the great bales of merchandise they have carried hundreds of miles across the desert lie beside them.Perhaps the most unforgettable thing in the bazaar, apart from its general atmosphere, is the place where they make linseed oil. It is a vast, sombre cavern of a room, some thirty feet high and sixty feet square, and so thick with the dust of centuries that the mudbrick walls and vaulted roof are only dimly visible. In this cavern are three massive stone wheels, each with a huge pole through its centre as an axle. The pole is attached at the one end to an upright post, around which it can revolve, and at the other to a blind-folded camel, which walks constantly in a circle, providing the motive power to turn the stone wheel. This revolves in a circular stone channel, into which an attendant feeds linseed.The stone wheel crushes it to a pulp, which is then pressed to extract the oil .The camels are the largest and finest I have ever seen, and in superb condition – muscular, massive and stately.The pressing of the linseed pulp to extract the oil is done by a vast ramshackle apparatus of beams and ropes and pulleys which towers to the vaulted ceiling and dwarfs the camels and their stone wheels. The machine is operated by one man, who shovels the linseed pulp into a stone vat, climbs up nimbly to a dizzy height to fasten ropes, and then throws his weight on to a great beam made out of a tree trunk to set the ropes and pulleys in motion. Ancient girders girders creak and groan , ropes tighten and then a trickle of oil oozes oozes down a stone runnel into a used petrol can. Quickly the trickle becomes a flood of glistening linseed oil as the beam sinks earthwards, taut and protesting, its creaks blending with the squeaking and rumbling of the grinding-wheels and the occasional grunts and sighs of the camels.(from Advanced Comprehension and Appreciation pieces, 1962 )________________________________________NOTES1) This piece is taken from Advanced Comprehension and Appreciation Pieces, compiled for overseas students by L.

The vegetables were overcooked and the meat was tough and flavorless. Additionally, the service we received was slow and inattentive. We had to wait a long time for our food to arrive, and even longer for our drinks to be refilled.Overall, my experience at your restaurant was very unpleasant.

《高级英语》试题册模拟试卷第一部分译文及答案
单元综合测试一(L10)(上)P142Some men drew the first slip which touched their fingers; others seemed to suspect that fate was trying to force on them a particular slip and when they bad drawn one a little way from the shoe would let it drop again and choose another. Time passed with incredible slowness, and the man called Voisin sat against the wall with the unlighted cigarette in his mouth paying them no attention at all.有些人抽自己手指头碰到的第一个纸了。
另一些人似乎怀疑是命运在试图强迫他们抽某一特定的纸条,因此当他们刚把一个纸条从鞋里抽出一点,又扔回去,再选另一张。
时间过得令人难以置信地缓慢。
叫瓦赞的那个人背靠着墙坐着,嘴上叼着未点燃的烟,丝毫没注意他人。
(L11)(上)P159I imagined the picture on the wall without difficulty, and gave it a few deft touches, but this set me thinking of pictures in general, and then I remembered an art exhibition I had attended with my friend T. and what he said, and what I said, and I wondered how T. was faring these days, and whether his son was still at school. And so it went on, until I found myself meditating on cheese, or spiritualism, or the Rocky Mountains—but no sleep!我想象挂在墙上的画倒是没有问题,然后我熟练地去扶正它。
高级英语第一册第1课译文及课后答案
高级英语第一册第1课译文及课后答案中东的集市中东的集市仿佛把你带回到了几百年、甚至几千年前的时代。
此时此刻显现在我脑海中的这个中东集市,其入口处是一座古老的砖石结构的哥特式拱门。
你首先要穿过一个赤日耀眼、灼热逼人的大型露天广场,然后走进一个凉爽、幽暗的洞穴。
这市场一直向前延伸,一眼望不到尽头,消失在远处的阴影里。
赶集的人们络绎不绝地进出市场,一些挂着铃铛的小毛驴穿行于这熙熙攘攘的人群中,边走边发出和谐悦耳的叮当叮当的响声。
市场的路面约有十二英尺宽,但每隔几码远就会因为设在路边的小货摊的挤占而变窄;那儿出售的货物各种各样,应有尽有。
你一走进市场,就可以听到摊贩们的叫卖声,赶毛驴的小伙计和脚夫们大着嗓门叫人让道的吆喝声,还有那些想买东西的人们与摊主讨价还价的争吵声。
各种各样的噪声此伏彼起,不绝于耳,简直叫人头晕。
随后,当往市场深处走去时,人口处的喧闹声渐渐消失,眼前便是清静的布市了。
这里的泥土地面,被无数双脚板踩踏得硬邦邦的,人走在上面几乎听不到脚步声了,而拱形的泥砖屋顶和墙壁也难得产生什么回音效果。
布店的店主们一个个都是轻声轻气、慢条斯理的样子;买布的顾客们在这种沉闷压抑的气氛感染下,自然而然地也学着店主们的榜样,变得低声细语起来。
中东集市的特点之一是经销同类商品的店家,为避免相互间的竞争,不是分散在集市各处,而是都集中在一块儿,这样既便于让买主知道上哪儿找他们,同时他们自己也可以紧密地联合起来,结成同盟,以便保护自己不受欺侮和刁难。
例如,在布市上,所有那 1些卖衣料、窗帘布、椅套布等的商贩都把货摊一个接一个地排设在马路两边,每一个店铺门面前都摆有一张陈列商品的搁板桌和一些存放货物的货架。
讨价还价是人们习以为常的事。
头戴面纱的妇女们迈着悠闲的步子从一个店铺逛到另一个店铺,一边挑选一边问价;在她们缩小选择范围并开始正儿八经杀价之前,往往总要先同店主谈论几句,探探价底。
对于顾客来说,至关重要的一点是,不到最后一刻是不能让店主猜到她心里究竟中意哪样东西、想买哪样东西的。

"We are trying out 3D paintings used as virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary requirements of speed breakers," India's transport minister Nitin Gadkari wrote.The optical illusions(视觉错觉) are supposed to encourage drivers to slow down automatically. Earlier, India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways, which are considered to be a safety hazard for high-speed vehicles. India has the highest number of road accident deaths in the world. According to the World Health Organisation, over 200,000 people are killed by road accidents.The use of optical illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American city of Philadelphia in 2008, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings. In India, cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai have already experimented with 3D zebra crossings in the last one year. In Ahmedabad for instance, a mother and her daughter, both artists, have painted 3D crosswalks in the first few months of 2016. The artists say their motto is "to increase the attention of drivers", and that the concept has been successfully tested in accident-prone zones on a highway.However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India's decision does not consider the safety of a large number of pedestrians. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.【1】Why are 3D paintings used on main highways and roads?A.To make the surroundings more beautiful.B.To attract the attention of tourists.C.To reduce the rate of traffic accidents.D.To show the advanced technology.【2】Which of the following words is closest to the meaning of “hazard” in paragraph 2?A.Reminder B.ThreatC.Regulation D.Theory【3】What can we learn from Paragraph 3 and 4?A.Philadelphia, the U.S.A is th second place to use virtual speed breakers in the world.B.The idea tested in Ahmedabad recently has been a failure.C.The new policy of 3D zebra crossings must be carried out smoothly.D.The use of optical illusions as speed breakers is controversial in India.【4】What do we know about 3D zebra crossings from the passage?A.They can vastly lower the death rate in India.B.They have been widely used in India so far.C.They are designed to increase drivers’ attention.D.They are welcomed by both drivers and pedestrians.4.I used to believe courtesy was a thing of the past. Very seldom have I encountered a courteous human beingin this modern era.Recently, I had to change my thinking, when I came face to face with just such a human being in a coffee place, with my two daughters. The place was crowded as usual and we had to climb steep stairs in order to find an empty table. After enjoying coffee and snacks, we went down the narrow stairs, where there was hardly any space for another person to either climb up or come down.Just as I was in the middle of the stairs, a gentleman entered the main entrance of the restaurant which was right in front of the staircase. I was sure I would be pushed roughly by this man going up. I kept coming down as fast as I could. My daughters were already down, looking up at me worriedly, hoping I would reach them before the stranger started walking up the stairs, knowing I was a nervous sort.Nearly reaching them, I noticed the man still standing near the door. I reached my daughters and passed the stranger at the entrance door which he kept holding open. I looked back thinking he was still at the door, deciding whether to go in or find another less crowded place. I saw him going up the stairs, two at a time. I told my daughters about it and all three of us felt bad that we did not even thank the courteous gentleman who was actually holding the door open for us ladies to pass through before going up.Such well mannered people are hard to find these days, when pushing is very common in our advanced but aggressive society. We applauded for his chivalry(骑士精神).【1】What did the author think of the man at the first sight of him?A.He was in a hurry.B.He would wait for her.C.He would cross her rudely.D.He was a man with good manners.【2】Why did the author’s daughters worry about her?A.She was too old to walk fast.B.She was easy to be disturbed.C.She took up too much space.D.She focused too much on the man.【3】What can we learn about the man from Paragraph 4?A.He might be a waiter of the café.B.He might have an urgent business to do.C.He fell in love with one of the author’s daughters.D.He would hold the door open for all.5.Steep Rock Skills $100 per person.

But for pets new to Marlborough, help is at hand.Marlborough SPCA and the Railway Café, in Blenheim, have joined forces to help welcome pets and their peopleto the region with a fortnightly morning tea. They hope the morning teas will get tails and tongues wagging as well as giving advice on how to make the move smoother.Railway Café owner Leanne Harris came up with the innovative plan as a way to help welcome people to the area. Leanne moved to Marlborough from Auckland two years ago and said she initially struggled to find friends and feel part of the community. “Coming from Auckland I thought people would open their doors and that there would be neighbours calling round with cake. I expected people to come to me and, of course, it wasn’t like that.I did get lonely. “I hope to save newcomers having to wait as long as I did to feel part of it all. I wo uld like to welcome them to the town.”Free platters of sandwiches, cakes and other goodies will be on offer, for the people, while there will be special handmade yoghurt and banana treats for the dogs. The morning teas will take place in the covered area at the back of the popular café beside the railway station off Grove Rd.Leanne said she was happy to devote both her time and effort into giving back to the community and felt the venture was a great fit with the SPCA.“Volunteering is such an amazing thi ng to do and it changed things for me completely, and I met some amazing people with similar interests.”SPCA Op Shop manager Karina Greenall, originally from the United Kingdom, said she also wanted to help. “I can give advice on how to resettle pets, the best parks to go to , where the best walks are and where the vet centers are in town.” There will be volunteering opportunities too for people where they can help out and hopefully make friends too.”【1】How will Marlborough SPCA and the Railway Café help new pets?A.By offering morning teas.B.By giving advice to them.C.By communication with them.D.By providing accommodation to them.【2】What was Leanne’s plan originally intended for?A.Saving animals.B.Helping newcomers.C.Making more friends.D.Expanding her business.【3】What had Leanne expected when she first came to Marlborough?A.To be left alone.B.To struggle for a living.C.To be invited to dinner.D.To feel part of the community.【4】What can be learnt about SPCA Op Shop manager Karina Greenall?A.She often misses the United Kingdom.B.She takes interest in the Railway Café.C.She is enthusiastic about resettling pets.D.She has organized the voluntary events.3.In 1917 Orville Wright predicted that "the aeroplane will help peace in many ways –in particular I think it will have a tendency to make war impossible.” Earlier in 1904, American journalist John Walker declared, “As a peace machine, the value of the aerop lane to the world will be beyond computation.” This wasn’t the first grand promise of technology. In that same year Jules Verne announced, “The submarine(潜艇)may be the cause of bringing battle to a stoppage.”Alfred Nobel, sincerely believe his dynamite(火药) would be a war obstacle: “My dynamite will sooner lead to peace than a thousand world conventions(公约).” Similarly, when Hiran Maxim, inventor of the machine gun, was asked in 1893, “Will this gun not make war more terrible?” he answered, “No, it will make war impossible.” Gugliemo Mareconi, inventor of the radio, told the world in 1912. “The coming of the wireless time will make war impossible, because it will make war ridiculous.” General James Harbord, chairman of the board of RCA in 1925,believed, “Radio will serve to make the concept of Peace on Earth, Good Will Toward Men a reality.”David Nye, a historian of technology, adds to the list of inventions imagined as abolishing war forever and leading to universal peace the hot-air balloon, poison gas, land mines and laser guns.It is not that all these inventions are without benefits—even benefits toward democracy. Rather, it’s the case that each new technology creates more problems than it solves. “Problems are the answers to solutions,” says Brian Arthur.Most of the new problems in the world are problems created by previous technology. These problems are nearly invisible to us. Every year 1.2 million people die in automobile accidents. The technological transportation system kills more people than cancer. Global warming, environmental poisons, nuclear terrorism, and species loss, are only a few of the many other serious problems troubling people.If we embrace(拥抱) technology we need to face its costs.【1】What will new inventions do according to the first two paragraphs?A.They will increase wars.B.They will lead to peace.C.They will serve people.D.They will break conventions.【2】What does the author list so many inventions?A.To show people’s creativity.B.To appreciate their benefits.C.To contradict the original ideas.D.To prove grand promises.【3】What does the author hope to tell us about new technology through the text?A.It will experience many tests.B.It will bring about huge costs in the world.C.It provides answers to many problems.D.It presents more problems than it solves.4.Cyclist Alain Such has been dropped from the Ingotel cycling team for two years after a positive drug test at the Institute of drug Free Sport. “ I was flabbergasted.” Said Didier Garcia, from Team Ingotel. “Alain joined our team last month and we had no idea that he was being examined.”It’s a story that has become more and more familiar in recent years. Dr. Mohammad Farnood, a leading sports scientist from Cairo, Egypt, said, “ It is thought t hat some athletes will look for other ways to improve performance in addition to using drugs.”However, it has not always been against the law. In the Olympics in 1904, Thomas Hicks won the marathon after using drugs in the middle of the race. In fact, the first one didn’t make him feel better for long, so he was given another and, as a result, he fell down soon after finishing and knew nothing. Another one may well have killed him.Things are very different today. Some scientists are considering the possibilities of using genetic engineering to further develop athletes’ abilities. “If it works with no risk of discovering,” said Dr Farnood, “ then it’s likely to become common practice for athletes.”Researchers are looking at the possibility of identifying “athletic” genes and correcting weak ones. Put into practice, this would make a person healthier and stronger. Once scientists understand what genes of top athletes look like , it might even become possible to identify “athletic” genes in young people, and then money could be spent on children who have the most promising genes.“People are beginning to recognize that genetics can in many ways do good to our society, for example in saving lives and in creating better quality food for people.” Dr Farnood says.“ So, is it fair to use genetic engineering in sport? You could ask if it’s fair for some runners to use the latest scientifically developed footwear. The key question is whether it’s available to everyone.”【1】What does the underlined word “ flabbergasted” in Paragraph 1 mean ?A.Shy .B.Proud.C.Excited.D.Surprised.【2】What happened to Thomas Hicks in 1904 ?A.He was badly hurt in training.B.He broke the law when running in a race.C.He took drugs and almost got killed.D.He lost the match in the Olympic Games.【3】Who may show the greatest concern about using genetic engineering in sport ?A.Didier Garcia .B.Thomas Hicks.C.Cyclist Alain Such .D.Dr Mohammad Farnood.【4】What can we learn from Paragraph 5 and 6 ?A.The possibility of identifying “athletic” genes has become available .B.It’s not clear whether it is fair to use genetic engineering in sport.C.The practice of using drugs in sport has a long history.D.It’s dangerous to use drugs in sport.二、其他Tired of traditional running? Well, maybe it’s time to try using your hands instead. That’s what Shaun McCarty and other Australians are doing — running on all fours. 【1】McCarthy, who comes from Melbourne, Australia, said he’s the one behind the term “crunning.” “It’s not crawling, it’s not running.” he said. “Crunning is a better workout than running. It puts more of an emphasis(着重)on the body than traditional running does.【2】”McCarthy thinks that he gets much more exhausted after crunning, so he believes it must burn more calories than running.【3】 Some believe crunning could result in bad shoulder injuries or broken noses.But McCarthy is not worried. Many Melbourne residents have been seen running around on all fours.【4】In the Chinese city of Zhengzhou, crawling, a much slower version of crunning, has been a favourite activity for many years. According to some people there, the exercise is believed to date back two thousand years to the Han Dynasty.【5】 Then McCarthy advises you to buy some good shoes, hand gloves and most important of all, a face mask! A.Ready to give crunning a try?B.As it turns out, they are not the only ones.C.Crunning seems more difficult than traditional running.D.It really exercises your legs and shoulders at the same time.E. It’s part of the Internet’s latest fitness activities: “Crunning.”F. However, many are not sure if it is the right exercise for humans.G. He warns, howev er, that he can’t say whether crunning is potentially harmful.三、完形填空Falling off a box car and landing on my head, I lost my sight when I was four years old. Now I am thirty-two.

全国高三高中英语高考模拟带答案解析
全国高三高中英语高考模拟班级:___________ 姓名:___________ 分数:___________一、阅读理解1.More cycling, better public transport and car bans… Places all over the world are taking a range of measures to lower traffic pollution.ParisParis bans cars in many historic central districts on weekends, places odd-even(单双日制的) bans on vehicles, makes public transport free during major pollution events and encourages car-sharing programs. A long section of the right bank of the river. Seine is now car-free and a monthly ban on cars has come into force along the Champs-Elysees.The NetherlandsPoliticians want to ban the sale of all petrol cars from 2025, allowing only electric of hydrogen vehicles. The new law will allow anyone who already owns a petrol car to continue using it. Most cities encourage bicycle use. FreiburgFreiburg in Germany has 500km of bike routes and a cheap and efficient public transport system. One town, Vauban, forbids people to park near homes and makes car-owners pay 18,000 for a space on the edge of town. In return for living without a car, people are offered cheaper housing, free public transport, and plentiful bicycle spaces.CuritibaThe southern Brazilian city of two million people has one of the biggest and lowest-cost bus systems in the world. Nearly 70% of its people go to work by public transport and the result is pollution-free air and traffic-free streets. CopenhagenCopenhagen prioritizes(优先考虑) bikes over cars and now has more cycles than people. The city calculates that one mile on a bike is worth $0.42 to society, while one mile in a car is a $0.2 loss. Large parts of the Danish capital have been closed to vehicles for decades.【1】What will happen in Paris during major pollution events?A.Historic central dist ricts won’t allow cars in.B.People can take public transport free of charge.C.Car-sharing programs will raise money publicly.D.People must obey the old-even traffic restrictions.【2】From 2025, the Netherlands will ________.A.put 500km of bike routes into full useB.completely forbid the use of petrol carsC.only allow the sale of electric or hydrogen vehiclesD.own the biggest and lowest-cost bus system in the world【3】What does Vauban forbid its people to do?A.Park their cars around their homes.B.Sell or buy parking spaces.C.Occupy bicycle spaces.D.Go to work by car.【4】Which of the following cities attach great importance to cycling?A.Park and Curitiba.B.Paris and Freiburg.C.Curitiba and Copenhagen.D.Freiburg and Copenhagen.2.“A room without books is like a body without a soul,” observed the Roman philosopher, Cicero. It can also be a sign of financial problems to come. New research has uncovered a strong connection between the earning of adults and whether they grew up surrounded by books as children.Three economists at the University of Padua—Giorgio Brunello, Guglielmo Weber and Christoph Weiss—studied 6000 men born in nine European countries and concluded that children with access to books could expect to earn more money than those who grew up with few or no books.They studied the period from 1920 to 1956, when school reforms saw the minimum school leaving age raised across Europe. They booked at whether, at the age of 10, a child lived in a house with fewer than 10 books, a shelf of books, a bookcase with up to 100 books, two bookcases, or more than two bookcases.Over the period studied, the research, published in The Economic Journal, found that an additional year of education increased a man’s average lifetime earnings by 9%. Men brought up in houses with less than a shelfof books earned only 5% more as a result of the extra year’s education, compared with 21% more for those who had access to a lot of books. And those who had access to books were more likely to move to the better-earning opportunities in cities than those without books. The men’s first job was also much more likely to be a white-collar job.The economists offer a num ber of theories for the results. “Perhaps books matter because they encourage children to read more and reading can have positive effects on school performance,” they said.The number of books in children’s homes can effectively predict their cognitive(认知的) test scores. This may indicate a home that encourages cognitive skills, which are important for economic success in life.【1】Why did author mention Cicero’s words in the first paragraph?A.To make an argument.B.To introduce the topic.C.To express his own views.D.To arouse readers’ interest.【2】What can we learn about the people studied by the researchers?A.They were tracked by researchers since age 10.B.They all left school because of school reforms.C.They came from several different countries.D.They are now white-collar professionals.【3】How does the author show the results of the research?A.By listing numbers.B.By providing examples.C.By following the order of time.D.By following the order of importance.【4】What is the main conclusion to the research?A.Homes without books are vulnerable(脆弱)to financial problems.B.Families that can afford books raise successful children.C.Boy who love reading books earn more than girls.D.Children who live with books earn more as adults.3.While music has value all by itself, researchers have long noticed that musicians also tend to be better at learning languages and show other improved reading and math abilities. Now a new study from the University of Washington by Christina Zhao shows that rhythm is an important bridge between music and speech as early as nine months of age.Researchers randomly placed babies into two groups of 20 each, and each group played at the lab with their parents for a dozen 15-minute sessions over a month.In one group, researchers played recordings of songs with a waltz rhythm and showed the parents how to help their babies tap out that 1-2-3 beat in time with the music on boy drums or with their feet. In the other group, children played with typical toys and no music.The babies in the music group were better able to detect random mistakes in that rhythm when they heard it within two weeks of the last session. They also showed a stronger brain response to disruptions in the rhythm. For example, researchers would sometimes alter the timing of syllables(音节) by slightly shortening the middle sound of a word like bibbi to make it bibi—and the babies with music training were more likely to notice it.In other words, music training not only improved the babies’ ability to notice when a musical rhythm skipped a beat, but also improved their ability to notice when the rhythms of speech changed unexpectedly, an important skill for learning to talk.The study reflects Zh ao’s personal experiences as a pianist who music in college, and as someone who speaks both Mandarin and English. She noticed that a lot of her fellow musicians were also good at learning other languages. “That really got me wondering how these two are related, “Zhao said.【1】What can we learn about the new study?A.It included twenty babies.B.The babies were grouped by age.C.It was carried out in form of lab tests.D.The two groups were offered different types of music.【2】According to the last paragraph, Christina Zhao ________.A.will carry on with this studyB.is good at discovering hidden connectionsC.is willing to share her personal experiencesD.began learning different languages during childhood【3】Which is the best title for the text?A.Music Learners’ Advantages Over Language LearnersB.An Important Bridge Between Music and BabiesC.Researchers Prove Music’s Influence on BabiesD.Music Skills May Help Babies Learn Languages4.Americans always attach great weight to the business of the country. President Coolidge’s statement, “the business of America is business.” Still points to an important truth today—that business institutions have more prestige(威望) in American society than any other kind of organization, including the government. Why do business institutions possess this great prestige?One reason is that Americans view business as being more firmly based on the ideal of competition than other institutions in society. Since competition is seen as the major source of progress and prosperity by most Americans, competitive business institutions are respected. Competition is not only good in itself, it is the means by which other basic American values such as individual freedom, equality of opportunity, and hard work are protected.Competition protects the freedom of the individual by ensuring that there is no monopoly (垄断、垄断者) of power. In contrast to one, all-powerful government, many businesses compete against each other for profits. Theoretically, if one business tries to take unfair advantage of its customers, it will lose to competing business which treats its customers more fairly. Where many businesses compete for the customers’ dollar, they cannot afford to treat them like inferiors(下属) or slaves.A contrast is often made between business, which is competitive, and government, which is a monopoly. Because is competitive, many Americans believe that it is more supportive of freedom than government, even though government leaders are elected by the people and business leaders are not.

单元综合测试一(L10)(上)P142Some men drew the first slip which touched their fingers; others seemed to suspect that fate was trying to force on them a particular slip and when they bad drawn one a little way from the shoe would let it drop again and choose another. Time passed with incredible slowness, and the man called Voisin sat against the wall with the unlighted cigarette in his mouth paying them no attention at all.有些人抽自己手指头碰到的第一个纸了。
另一些人似乎怀疑是命运在试图强迫他们抽某一特定的纸条,因此当他们刚把一个纸条从鞋里抽出一点,又扔回去,再选另一张。
时间过得令人难以置信地缓慢。
叫瓦赞的那个人背靠着墙坐着,嘴上叼着未点燃的烟,丝毫没注意他人。
(L11)(上)P159I imagined the picture on the wall without difficulty, and gave it a few deft touches, but this set me thinking of pictures in general, and then I remembered an art exhibition I had attended with my friend T. and what he said, and what I said, and I wondered how T. was faring these days, and whether his son was still at school. And so it went on, until I found myself meditating on cheese, or spiritualism, or the Rocky Mountains—but no sleep!我想象挂在墙上的画倒是没有问题,然后我熟练地去扶正它。
这会使我想到通常见到的画,然后我想起一个艺术展,那是和我的朋友T一起去的。
我记得他说过什么话,然后我又说了什么话,然后我开始想T这一段时间会怎么样了,他的儿子是否还在念书。
就这样继续下去,直到我不知不觉地想到奶酪或是唯灵论,或者落基山脉——就是睡不着!(L6)(上)P76When she saw that I didn’t like her reference to “people like you”, she stopped for a moment and then put he r hand on my arm. “Listen,” she said, “Magpie is happynew, finally. He is in good spirits, handsome and free and strong. He sits at the drum and sings with his brothers: he’s okay now. When he was saying all those things against the government and against the council, he became more and more ugly and embittered and I used to be afraid for him. But I’m not now. Please, why don’t you just leave it alone now”当她发现我不喜欢她提到“像你这样的人”时,她停了一下,然后把手放到我的胳膊上,说:“听我说,现在喜鹊终于高兴起来了。
他情绪很好,很英俊、很自由、也很健壮。
他和兄弟们一起坐在皮鼓前唱歌,他现在很正常。
他总是说那些反对政府.反对印第安人事务委员会的话,说那些话时他就变得越来越可怕,越来越恼怒。
我过去常因此而为他担忧,可是我现在不那样了。
哦,我们还是顺其自然吧。
”(L9)(上)P 124The viewer is on a perpetual guided tour: 30 t the museum, 30 at the cathedral, 30 for a drink, then back on the bus to the next attraction—-except on television., typically, the spans allotted arc on the order of minutes or seconds, and the chosen delights are more often car crashes and people killing one another. In short, a lot of television usurps one of the most precious of all human gifts, the ability to focus your attention yourself, rather than just passively surrender it.观众被领着进行无限期的游览:30分钟看博物馆,30分钟看大教堂,30分钟喝饮料,然后又回到车上,到下一个参观点。
但是电视的时间是按分秒来计算的,而且所选的欣赏内容多是车祸和人与人之间的相互残杀。
总之,许多电视节目剥夺了人类才能中最可贵的一面。
即能够主动地集中自己的注意力,而不只是被动地放弃。
(L7)(上)P94It was exactly like a play. Who could believe the sky at the back wasn’t painted But it wasn’t till a little brown dog trotted on solemnly and then slowly trotted off, like a little “theatre” dog, a little dog that had been drugged, that Miss Brill discovered what it was that made it so exciting. They were all on the stage.They weren’t only the audience, not only looking on; they were acting.就像是一出戏。
简直就像一出戏。
谁能说远处的天空不是画出来的布景呢但她一时还没弄清楚是什么使这一切如此令人神往。
后来,有一条棕色的小狗一本正经地跑来,又缓缓地跑开,活像一个“戏台上”的狗,一个吃了蒙药的狗。
这时布里尔小姐才领悟出个中奥妙。
原来大家全在舞台上。
他们不仅是观众,不仅是看戏的,也都是演戏的。
单元综合测试二(下)(L16)P285They began diving again and again from a high point into a well of blue sea between rough, pointed rocks. After they had dived and come up, they swam round, hauled themselves up, and waited their turn to dive again. They were big boys - men to Jerry. He dived, and they watched him, and when he swam round to take his place, they made way for him. He felt he was accepted, and he dived again, carefully, proud of himself.他们开始一次接一次地跳水,从高处跳进了被尖而粗糙的岩石包围着的蓝色的像井一样的一片海中,他们跳入水中又浮出水面,然后在周围游着。
再爬上岩石等着自己的下一次跳水机会。
他们都是大男孩——在杰里看来他们都是大人。
杰里跳时,他们都看着他。
当杰里游了一圈,爬上岩石准备再跳时,他们赶快给他让地方,杰里感觉到自己已经被他们接纳了。
他小心翼翼地再次跳入水中,心里充满了自豪。
(下)(L7)P 110In her crib, Bonnie whimpered at the sight of her mother being seized. Ace fitted his hand into the natural place on Evey’s back and she shuffled stiffly into his lead. When, with a sudden injection of saxophones, the tempo quickened, he spun her out carefully, keeping the beat with his shoulders .在她的小床里,邦尼看见妈妈被抓住就呜呜地哭了。
埃斯将手放在埃维背上该放的地方,埃维僵硬地脚拖着地跟他跳着舞。
当音乐中突然加入了萨克斯管,节奏变快时,他小心地将她旋转起来,耸动着双肩打着拍子。
(下)(L5)P 68When it dropped below zero last night I thought I ‘d better send Frank out this morning to make a fire for us ----no use getting pneumonia with a big case on , but I told him not to touch anything except the stove ----and you know Frank .昨晚温度降到零度以下时,我想最好派弗兰克今早来给我们生上火,——在办大案时得肺炎可没有什么好处,可我告诉他除了炉子之外什么也别动——你是认识弗兰克的。
