Word had gone round during the day that old Major, the prize Middle White pig, had had a strange dream on the previous night and wished to communicate it to the other animals. It had been agreed that they should all meet in the big barn(谷仓) as soon as Mr.Jones was safely out of the way.At one end of the big barn, Major lay on his bed of straw comfortably. He was twelve years old and had lately grown rather heavy, but he was still a nicelooking pig, with a wise and easygoing appearance. Before long the other animals began toarrive and make themselves comfortable after their different fashions. First came the three dogs, Bluebell, Jessie, and Pincher, and then the pigs, who settled down in the straw immediately beside Major. The two carthorses, Boxer and Clover, came in together, walking very slowly and setting down their vast hairy hoofs(蹄子) with great care for fear that there should be some small animals hidden in the straw. Clover was a motherly big horse approaching middle life, who had never quite got her figure back after her fourth kid.Boxer was an enormous beast, nearly eighteen hands high, and as strong as any two ordinary horses put together. A white stripe down his nose gave him a somewhat stupid appearance, and in fact he was not of firstrate intelligence, but he was well respected for his steadiness of character and extraordinary abilities. After the horses came Benjamin, the donkey, Benjamin got angry easily. He seldom talked, and when he did, it was usually to make all such remarks—for instance, he would say that God had given him a tail to keep the flies off, but that he would rather have had no tail and no flies. Alone among the animals on the farm he never laughed. If asked why, he would say that he saw nothing to laugh at.16．All the animals came to the barn to ________．A．vote for a farm masterB．listen to Major's strange dreamC．discuss how to win a prizeD．share how to drive Mr. Jones away17．According to the passage, Clover was ________．A．considerate and in good shapeB．oldaged and out of shapeC．a fat horse with a gentle heartD．a pretty horse with a nice character18．What earned Boxer high respect?A．His strong build and great wisdom.B．His calm character and great powers of work.C．His good temper and strong build.D．His steady character and quick mind.19．Which remark could be to Benjamin's taste?A．Life is like a box of sweets.B．Life is an interesting journey.C．Life is a battle.D．There is nothing exciting in life.B[2012·福建卷]Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it's because we have mirror neurons(神经元)in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate(模仿)it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not onlyappear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language.A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to(for example：“The hand took hold of the ball”), the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed(in this example, actually taking hold of a ball)．Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact(互动)．Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent(相等物)for neuroscience of what Einstein's theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does—well, perhaps you'll understand why.20．Mirror neurons can explain ________．A．why we cry when we are hurtB．why we cough when we suffer from a coldC．why we smile when we see someone else smileD．why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late21．The underlined word “triggered” in the third paragraph probably means “________”．A．set off B．cut offC．built up D．broken up22．We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons ________．A．relate to human behavior and interactionB．control human physical actions and feelingsC．result in bad behavior and social disordersD．determine our knowledge and language abilities23．What is the passage mainly about?A．Ways to find mirror neurons.B．Problems of mirror neurons.C．Existence of mirror neurons.D．Functions of mirror neurons.Ⅲ.短文改错Nowadays more and more people are concerning about their health, but how to keep health? First, it is necessary to take any exercise every day.Research shows that get plenty of exercise makes the heart beat fast and the lungs work harder.Second, eat more fruits, vegetable and less meat.Third, getting rid of bad habits as smoking and drinking is also important way to keep healthy. Smoking and alcohol drinking injures one's health a great deal,and therefore should be given up. If people follow these three ways of keeping fit, they'll great improve their health.课时作业(二十三)Ⅰ.1.C 考查非谓语动词。

There's no excuse for not trying.”This was not the first presidential speech to students.Ronald Reagan spoke from the White House in 1988.And George H．W.Bush spoke from a school in Washington in 1991.But many conservatives(保守者) criticized plans for the speech.Some called it“socialized education”or federal interference(干预) in local schools.Others feared it would be too political. Some schools decided not to show the speech.But the White House released (发布)the text on Monday，and that calmed a lot of critics.On Sunday，on the CBS program“Face the Nation”，Untied States Secretary of Education Arne Duncan said 30 percent of students do not graduate from high school.He called the dropout rate“staggering(令人吃惊的)”．It represents more than a million students every year who entered ninth grade but did not complete 12th grade.语篇导读：本文是一篇新闻报道，主要介绍了美国总统奥巴马发表电视演讲，呼吁学生们克服困难，继续学业，人们对演讲有不同的评价。

Organizers said the voyage was made to protect Taiwanese fishing rightsin nearby waters and to protest Japan's “purchase” of part of the Diaoyu Islands.The Japanese government announced a plan to “purchase” part of the islands earlier this month despite repeated protests from the Chinese government. The action aroused demonstrations across China as well as consumers' boycott of Japanese products in recent weeks. Local authorities in Taiwan have also protested the move.“Japan's purchase and nationalization of China's Diaoyu Islands is putting ChinaJapan economic and trade ties at risk due to manmade factors.” An official spokesman from Beijing warned.ChinaJapan economic and trade relations were back on track in 1952 when the two countries signed their first nongovernmental trade agreement. Currently, China has been Japan's largest trade partner since 2007 while Japan is China's fourth largest trade partner, after the EU，U.S. and the ASEAN. Meanwhile, Chinais the biggest destination for Japanese exports and biggest source of imports. In the first half of 2012, Japan's exports to China totaled 73.54 billion U．S.dollars, down 6.2 percent from the same period last year, while its import from China was 91.29 billion U．S. dollars, up 7 percent from the same period last year.Now, ChinaJapan economic and trade relations are at a crossroads. Negotiation could be the way out of the rift.11．Where can you probably find this passage?A．A magazine.B．A scientific report.C．A newspaper.D．A textbook.12．Which of the following is NOT the result of Japan's move to purchase the islands?A．Opposition from Chinese government.B．Nationwide demonstrations were carried out in China.C．Fishing boats organized by Taiwan government sailed to the islands to protest.D．Chinese consumers refused to buy products imported from Japan.13．Why are ChinaJapan economic and trade relations at a crossroads?A．Because Taiwan fishing boats sailed to the islands to protest Japan.B．Because Taiwanese are deprived of their fishing right.C．Because Japan is not China's largest trade partner.D．Because Japan announced to purchase China's Diaoyu Islands.14．We can infer from the passage that ________.A．about 100 boats joined the original team laterB．negotiation will bring both countries out of the conflictC．Japan's exports to China totaled 78 billion U．S. dollars in 2011D．Japan's purchase of Diaoyu Islands will probably have a negative effect on its export and import with China15．What is the main idea of this passage?A．Japan declared to purchase China's Diaoyu Islands.B．Japan's purchase of Diaoyu Islands aroused nationwide protest.C．The Diaoyu Islands belong to China!D．China plays an important part in Japan's economy development.Ⅲ.信息匹配阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

B．4.C．5. D．6.6．It seems that the writer________.A．is familiar with the education system of high schools in KoreaB．is fond of Korean students’ appearanceC．prefers the high school life of America to the one of KoreaD．feels it common to have lessons on weekends7．What does the underlined word “setup” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A．Arrangement. B．Size.C．Number. D．Outline.8．According to the rules，the students of Korea can________.A．go to different high schools without examsB．wear any clothes except uniforms at schoolC．attend different classes as they likeD．have different hair styles答案：课时作业(二十四)Ⅰ.单项填空1．解析：考查交际用语。

After helping pro basketball gain a foothold in the world’s most populous market, Chinese star Yao Ming has retired.Yao made it official Wednesday, telling a news conference that a series of foot and leg injuries forced him to end his playing career at the age of 30.“I will formally end my career，”said Yao, who became a household name in China before starting his NBA career with the Houston Rockets in 2002. Yao played eight seasons in the NBA.“Today is an important day for me and holds a special meaning for both my basketball career and my future，” Yao said. “I had to leave the court since I suffered a stress fracture(断裂) in my left foot for the third time at the end of last year. My past six months were a painful wait. I have been thinking about my future over and over. Today I am announcing a personal decision, ending my career as a basketball player and officially retire. But_one_door_is_closing_and_another_one_is_opening.”Yao said he would return to work with his former Chinese team, the Shanghai Sharks, with the possibility of becoming general manager. He already owns the club and wants to contribute more.“My playing career started with the club. I hope I can do something for it，” Yao said.He later appeared with his family on the stage to the applause and cheers of the crowd. He thanked a lot of people—his family, former coaches, even players like Shaquille O’Neal—“For making me a better player, I will be always with you. T hank you.”Rockets general manager Daryl Morey was among those attending the farewell(告别) conference Wednesday. Morey made the long trip from Houston. Morey said 20 hours on planes was tiring but “I would be sorry if I wasn’t here.”“It’s a big moment，” Morey added. “Yao had a sense of humor, a great attitude and sense of responsibility. I hope we can continue his culture in the NBA.”Yao had played six years with the Chinese national team before joining the Rockets, and was already a star in his home country. He carried the Olympic torch through Tian’anmen Square and his country’s flag during the opening ceremonies at the Beijing Olympics in 2008. He also donated 2 million dollars and set up a foundation to rebuild schools in the wake of the 2008 earthquake in Sichuan.36．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A．Yao Ming：a household nameB．Yao Ming retires from basketballC．A farewell conferenceD．Yao Ming’s personal decision37．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?A.

课时作业24 Making the newsⅠ.阅读理解(辽宁大连检测)French writer Frantz Fanon once said, “To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture.” Since the world changes every day, so does our language.More than 300 new words and phrases have recently made it into the online Oxford Dictionary, and in one way or another they are all reflections of today's changing world.After a year that was politically unstable, it's not hard to understand the fact that people's political views are one of the main drives of our expanding vocabulary. One example is “clicktivism”， a compound of “click” and “activism”. It refers to “armchair activists” —people who support a political or social cause, but only show their support from behind a computer or smartphone. And “otherize” is a verb for “other” that means to alienate (使疏远) people who are different from ourselves —whether that be different skin color, religious belief or sexuality.Lifestyle is also changing our language. For example, “fitspiration” — a compound of fit and inspiration — refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy.The phrase “climate refugee” —someone who is forced to leave their home due to climate change — reflects people's concern for the environment.According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions. “People feel much freer to coin their own words these days，” he said.But still, not all newlyinvented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream (主流的) dictionary. If you want to create your own hit words, Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, suggests that you should not only make sure that they are expressive (有表现力的) and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.本篇文章主要讲述了语言与社会生活的联系，世界每天都在变化，语言也在变化。

Unit 4 Making the newsⅠ.阅读理解(2018·宁波九校联考)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 14－year－old students in 2005 and 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) andemotionaldevelopment，”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 self－control.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.【语篇导读】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。

题型组合课时练(二十四)Ⅰ.阅读理解【导学号：47562215】It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams，the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life，but manners on the road are becoming horrible.Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel.It is all right to have a tiger in a cage，but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter.Road politeness is not only good manners，but a good sense.It takes the most coolheaded drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving.On the other hand，a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting.A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions.But such behavior of politeness is by no means enough.Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.However，misplaced politeness can also be dangerous.A typical example is the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time.The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.An experienced driver，whose manners are faultless，told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in a traffic stream without causing total blockages ，modern drivers can't even learn to drive，let alone master the roadmanship(公路驾车技能)．Years ago，experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more giveandtake(互谅互让)from all road users.It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。

手惰市安逸阳光实验学校【快乐考生】高考英语一轮总复习 Unit 4 Making the news课时作业新人教版必修5Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2013·浙江卷)The baby monkey is much more developed at birth than the human baby.Almost from the moment it is born，the baby monkey can move around and hold tightly to its mother.During the first few days of its life the baby will approach and hold onto almost any large，warm，and soft object in its envionment，particularly if that object also gives it milk.After a week or so，however，the baby monkey begins to avoid newcomers and focuses its attentions on“mother”—the real mother or the mother－substitute(母亲替代物)．During the first two weeks of its life warmth is perhaps the most important psychological(心理的)thing that a monkey mother has to give to its baby.The Harlows，a couple who are both psychologists，discovered this fact by offering baby monkeys a choice of two types of mother－substitutes—one covered with cloth and one made of bare wire.If the two artificial mothers were both the same temperature，the little monkeys always preferred the cloth mother.However，if the wire model was heated，while the cloth model was cool，for the first two weeks after birth the baby monkeys picked the warm wire mother－substitutes as their favorites.Thereafter they switched and spent most of their time on the more comfortable cloth mother.Why is cloth preferable to bare wire？Something that the Harlows called contact(接触)comfort seems to be the answer，and a most powerful influence it is.Baby monkeys spend much of their time rubbing against their mothers' skins，putting themselves in as close contact with the parent as they can.Whenever the young animal is frightened，disturbed，or annoyed，it typically rushes to its mother and rubs itself against her body.Wire doesn't“rub”as well as does soft cloth.Prolonged(长时间的)“contact comfort”with a cloth mother appears to give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is either warmth or milk.According to the Harlows，the basic quality of a baby's love for its mother is trust.If the baby is put into an unfamiliar playroom withoutits mother，the baby ignores the toys no matter how interesting they might be.It screams in terror and curls up into a furry little ball.If its cloth mother is now introduced into the playroom，the baby rushes to it and holds onto it for dear life.After a few minutes of contact comfort，it obviously begins to feel more secure.It then climbs down from the mother－substitute and begins to explore the toys，but often rushes back for a deep embrace(拥抱)as if to make sure that its mother is still there and that all is well.Bit by bit its fears of the new environment are gone and it spends more and more time playing with the toys and less and less time holding onto its “mother”．[文章大意]这是一篇说明文，作者在文章中主要向读者阐述了一个关于幼猴的试验研究发现。

Word had gone round during the day that old Major, the prize Middle White pig, had had a strange dream on the previous night and wished to communicate it to the other animals. It had been agreed that they should all meet in the big barn(谷仓) as soon as Mr.Jones was safely out of the way.At one end of the big barn, Major lay on his bed of straw comfortably. He was twelve years old and had lately grown rather heavy, but he was still anicelooking pig, with a wise and easygoing appearance. Before long the other animals began to arrive and make themselves comfortable after their different fashions. First came the three dogs, Bluebell, Jessie, and Pincher, and then the pigs, who settled down in the straw immediately beside Major. The two carthorses, Boxer and Clover, came in together, walking very slowly and setting down their vast hairy hoofs(蹄子) with great care for fear that there should be some smallanimals hidden in the straw. Clover was a motherly big horse approaching middle life, who had never quite got her figure back after her fourth kid.Boxer was an enormous beast, nearly eighteen hands high, and as strong as any two ordinary horses put together. A white stripe down his nose gave him a somewhat stupid appearance, and in fact he was not of firstrate intelligence, but he was well respected for his steadiness of character and extraordinary abilities. After the horses came Benjamin, the donkey, Benjamin got angry easily. He seldom talked, and when he did, it was usually to make all such remarks—for instance, he would say that God had given him a tail to keep the flies off, but that he would rather have had no tail and no flies. Alone among the animals on the farm he never laughed. If asked why, he would say that he saw nothing to laugh at.16．All the animals came to the barn to ________．A．vote for a farm masterB．listen to Major's strange dreamC．discuss how to win a prizeD．share how to drive Mr. Jones away17．According to the passage, Clover was ________．A．considerate and in good shapeB．oldaged and out of shapeC．a fat horse with a gentle heartD．a pretty horse with a nice character18．What earned Boxer high respect?A．His strong build and great wisdom.B．His calm character and great powers of work.C．His good temper and strong build.D．His steady character and quick mind.19．Which remark could be to Benjamin's taste?A．Life is like a box of sweets.B．Life is an interesting journey.C．Life is a battle.D．There is nothing exciting in life.B[2012·福建卷]Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it's because we have mirror neurons(神经元)in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate(模仿)it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to(for example：“The hand took hold of the ball”), the same mirrorneurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed(in this example, actually taking hold of a ball)．Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact(互动)．Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent(相等物)for neuroscience of what Einstein's theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does—well, perhaps you'll understand why.20．Mirror neurons can explain ________．A．why we cry when we are hurtB．why we cough when we suffer from a coldC．why we smile when we see someone else smileD．why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late21．The underlined word “triggered” in the third paragraph probably means “________”．A．set off B．cut offC．built up D．broken up22．We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons ________．A．relate to human behavior and interactionB．control human physical actions and feelingsC．result in bad behavior and social disordersD．determine our knowledge and language abilities23．What is the passage mainly about?A．Ways to find mirror neurons.B．Problems of mirror neurons.C．Existence of mirror neurons.D．Functions of mirror neurons.课时作业(二十四)Ⅰ.1.C 考查倒装句。
