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。

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'sfourth 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 tr ade relations are at a crossroads.

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 interfe rence(干预) in local schools.Others feared it would be too political. Some schools decided notto 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 plete 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。

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.

课时作业24 Making the newsⅠ.阅读理解A fellow speaker from California named Geri flew to Japan, in her favourite jeans and a casual jacket, to give her first speech. Fourteen hours later, four perfectly dressed Japanese gentlemen greeted her at Narita Airport. Smiling and bowing low, they handed her their business cards. With her bag in one hand, Geri took their cards with the other. She thanked them, glanced briefly at the cards, and put them into her jeans pocket quickly.When the five of them arrived at the hotel, they invited Geri to tea in the lobby (大厅). While sipping tea, the gentlemen presented her with a small gift which she eagerly opened. She was thrilled with the gift and shouted excitedly, “Oh, it's beautiful！”At this point, the four Japanese gentlemen stood up and, bowing only very slightly, said “Sayonara” and left immediately. Poor Geri was left astonished. What did she do wrong?Everything! Her jeans were the first gaffe. Even if you're coming off a bicycle in Japan, you do not meet clients (客人) casually dressed. The second mistake was Geri's handling of their business cards rudely. In Japan, the business card is one of the most important communicative tools. It is always presented and accepted respectfully with both hands. However, Geri put their cards away much too quickly. In Japan, people use business cards as a conversation starter. You chat about each other's cards and work and do not put theirs away until they gently and respectfully place yours in safe keeping. Putting it carelessly into her jeans pocket was the ultimate disrespect.Then, the fourth horror of horrors was that Geri should not have opened the gift in front of her clients. In a land where saving face is critical, it would be embarrassing to discover the gift they gave was not as nice as the one they received. What is worse, Geri hadn't even given them a gift!1．In the four Japanese gentlemen's eyes, Geri took their cards ________.A．excitedly B．embarrassinglyC．politely D．disrespectfully2．Why did the four Japanese gentlemen leave Geri suddenly?A．Because they couldn't bear Geri's behaviour any longer.B．Because they had finished the task.C．Because Geri had something more important to do.D．Because Geri felt embarrassed.3．What does the underlined word “gaffe” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Ignorance. B．Sadness.C．Mistake. D．Carelessness.4．The third mistake Geri made was that she ________.A．used her own card as a conversation starterB．took her clients' cards with one handC．kept her clients' cards in a wrong placeD．met her clients in jeans答案与解析本文介绍了 Geri 在与日本人交往中所犯的几个礼仪上的错误。

The frequency with which it is borrowed mirrors a heated debate on environmental protection: whether to place wilderness at the heart of what is to be preserved.As John Sauven of Greenpeace UK points out, there is a strong appeal in images of the wild, the untouched; more than anything else, they speak of the nature that many people value most dearly. The urge to leave the subject of such images untouched is strong, and the danger exploitation(开发)brings to such landscapes(景观)is real. Some of these wildernesses also perform functions that humans need—the rainforests, for example, store carbon in vast quantities. To Mr. Sauven, these “ecosystem services” far outweigh the gains from exploitation.Lee Lane, a visiting fellow at the Hudson Institute, takes the opposing view. He acknowledges that wildernesses do provide useful services, such as water conservation. But that is not, he argues, a reason to avoid all human presence, or indeed commercial and industrial exploitation. There are ever more people on the Earth, and they reasonably and rightfully want to have better lives, rather than merelystruggle for survival. While the ways of using resources have improved, there is still a growing need for raw materials, and some wildernesses contain them in abundance. If they can be tapped without reducing the services those wildernesses provide, the argument goes, there is no further reason not to do so. Being untouched is not, in itself, a characteristic worth valuing above all others.I look forward to seeing these views taken further, and to their being challenged by the other participants. One challenge that suggests itself to me is that both cases need to take on the question of spiritual value a little more directly. And there is a practical question as to whether wildernesses can be exploited without harm.This is a topic that calls for not only free expression of feelings, but also the guidance of reason.

B．Disapproving.C．Sceptical. D．Optimistic.19．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?CP：Central Point P：Point Sp：Subpoint(次要点)C：ConclusionB[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, apparentlyit'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 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.参考答案课时作业(二十四)Ⅰ.1.C 考查倒装句。

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.

We were ordinary people taking the bus every day that summer.During the early morning rides，we sat sleepily on our seats.One of the passengers was a small grey man to the center for senior citizens.He walked with a stoop(驼背) and a sad look on his face.We paid little attention to him.Then one July morning he said good morning to the driver and smiled to us before sitting down.The driver nodded politely，the rest of us being silent.The next day，the old man boarded the bus energetically，smiled and said loud，“Good morning！”Some of us looked up，amazed，and murmured“Good morning”．The following weeks we were more surprised.Our friend was dressed in a nice old suit with the thin hair carefully combed.He said good morning to us every day and we gradually began to nod and talk to each other.One morning he had a bunch of wild flowers in his hand.The driver smilingly asked，“Have you got yourself a girlfriend？”He nodded shyly，“She lives at the center.”The other passengers whistled and clapped at him.Charlie bowed before sitting down.Every morning after that Charlie always brought a flower.Some regular passengers began bringing him flowers for his bunch.Everyone smiled and joked about it.But one morning he didn’t turn up.When he wasn’t there the following days，we started wondering if he was sick or...We stopped at the center for senior citizens.The staff told us he was fine，but he hadn’t been coming that week.One of his very close friends had died at the weekend.They expected him back on Monday.How silent we were on the rest of the way to work!The next Monday he was waiting at the stop，stooping a bit more and a bit more grey.Inside the bus was a silence，all of us sitting with our eyes filled with tears and wild flowers in our hands.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。

课时作业二十四必修 5 Unit 4 Making the news班级: 姓名:建议时间/ 30 分钟I阅读理解A词数:325 话题:新闻业的未来文体:说明文When people find out that I am a journalist , they often ask me : What doyou think about the future of newspapers ?I tell them that I think the future of communications is moving online. People expect me to be fearful for the future of print. After all, in some people s minds I wouldn t be able to build a career in journalism if it all moves online. However , strangely enough , I m actually comforted by the fact that online journalism is becoming usual. I am a blogger who has always been able to find a home for my writing online.Since I began writing blogs , I have become aware of how many people you can reach with online writing. Compare this to the newspapers circulation base , and you will have a strong reason for online journalism.In her successful blog post titled The job I have spent the last year learning is not the one I will have, author Jenny Surane states , “Print is an expensive product to love. And general managers , publishers and editors must now figure out a profitable way to get their news into readers heads. ”She goes on to state that people don t feel like picking up a newspaper now and would rather scroll （滚屏）through their Twitter feed , and get news from many differe ntsources.If print is dying, the n a new form of com muni cati ng in formatio n is being born. The n eed for in formati on has not died. If anything , it has in creased. What has died , rather, is the way in which information is presented.Now more than ever , in this age of information , there is a desire for stories on the same topic from differe nt points of view. The prin ti ng in dustry can keep pace with the need of providing a variety of sources , if it chooses to.Is the future of print grim? Maybe. But is the future of journalism of com muni cat ing in formatio n to people grim as well ? Defi nitely not.1 .According to Paragraph2 , the author feels ________ .A. c on fide nt about the future of his careerB. worried about the future of printC. tired of being a n ewspaper jour nalistD. embarrassed about on li ne writ ing2. What information is conveyed in Jenny s blog post ?A. Twitter is not very popular.B. It is hard to man age on li ne jour nalism.C. Print still has its advantages.D. People have more choices to get in formatio n.3. What does the underlined word “rim ” in the last paragraph probably mean ?A. Promisi ng.B.Depress ing.C.Unforgiving.D.Encouraging.4. What is the author s purpose in writing the text ?A. To explore the future of journalism.B. To analyse the cause of print decline.C. To explain the bright future of a journalist.D. To introduce a successful blog post about print.B词数:298 话题:洋葱报文体:说明文On Aug. 29th, 1988, the University of Wisconsin-Madison juniors Tim Keck and Christopher Johnson published the first-ever issue of The Onion . The two founders claimed it was the “finest news source ” in the US. Twenty-five years later , the news outlet has become one of the most established media presences in the US. But don t expect accuracy and timeliness from it , because The Onion only publishes fake news or news satire （讽刺）. Its aim is to make readers laugh and see things from a different angle.Will Tracy , The Onion s editor-in-chief , told the NPR in an interview , “The stories are presented in that sort of news voice which improves the news to a certain level of importance. The news isn t actually understandable but it has an ability to elegantly locate a problem with concise and plain words. ”For example , when George W. Bush became the US president in 2001 , The Onion published a satire piece predicting massive debt and a huge growth in military spending. The headline said it all—Bush: “Our long national nightmare of peace and prosperity is finally over.Traditional media outlets are cautious when reporting sensitive topics such as religion and race. Tracy says Nothing is off-limits for The Onion,no matter how uncomfortable they may make some readers. ” But editors at The Onion do tread a fine line, as Tracy explains: What you have to be really careful about is what the target of the joke is. If the target of the joke is wrong , then it doesn t feel right and it also doesn t feel funny. ” The Onion madethe public outrageous whe n earlier this year , it tried to make fun of a 9-year-old Oscar-nominated （奥斯卡提名的）actress by using highly impolite Ianguage. It later apologized.5. What do we know about The Onion from Paragraph 1 ?A. Its news materials are all timely and accurate.B. It ofte n makes fun of the public based on the real n ews.C. It aims at making readers feel relaxed and see problems from different poi nts.D. Its first articles on Aug. 29th , 1988 were written by Tim Keck and Christopher Joh nson.6. What can be in ferred from the example in Paragraph 2 ?A. The Onion ofte n scolded the US former preside nt Bush.B. The Onion s editors were very familiar with their news.C. The On io n could put their satire into effect in simple and clear words.D. The America ns would face lots of difficulties whe n Bush became preside nt.7. What does the underlined word outrageous ” in Paragraph 3 mean ?A.A ngry.B.Glad.C.Ambitious.D.lm polite.8. What can we learn about The Onion from the text ?A. It has n ever apologized for what it published.B. lt n eeds to be cautious about the target of the joke.C. It enjoys treati ng childre n as the targets of the joke.D. It avoids report ing n ews about politics , religi on and race.U语法填空词数:208 话题:京都念慈庵文体:新闻报道The Chinese traditional cough syrup, called Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa, is beco ming eve n 9. ________________ (popular) among New Yorkers in this flu seas on, followi ng a US n ews report.According to an article published by The Wall Street Journal last week,Alex Schweder , 10. ______ architect and professor of design at Pratt Institute11. _______ (suffer) a cough for about ten days , felt better only in 15 minu tesafter he drank a bottle of Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa , which 12. _________ (recommend ) by his girlfrie nd.Here is a selection of the 13. ________ (comment) online :This cough syrup is effective to me.

Unit 4 Making the newsⅠ.阅读理解ANowadays there are many new cars on the road.Some new models are flashy and others are fuel efficient，and embedded technology(嵌入式系统技术) is at the heart of all of them.The new Ford Escape has a radar enabled adaptive cruise control(巡航车速控制装置) to avoid collisions，with sensors on the front and side of the car.Ford's Mark Schirmer says the electronic system can be accessed through the dashboard or a smartphone.“I am from Michigan.If it is a cold morning，I can have it start up right before I am scheduled to leave to go to the airport or go to work.You can find your car or if one of your family members borrows the car，it will show you exactly where it is，”said Schirmer.Third party products now in development，like this emergency warning system，help drivers who fail to hear an approaching siren.A near miss with an ambulance inspired the product from the Chicago start up HAAS，co founded by Cory Hohs.“It scared me enough that I started looking for a product that would alert me when they are coming，”said Hohs.A sobriety detector(清醒度检测器) from a Canadian company called Sober Steering is sold to companies with fleets of vehicles，such as buses.Chief OperatingOfficer Catherine Carroll says a sensor on the steering wheel can detect alcohol vapors emitted from the skin.“If I am drinking and I have levels above a preset limit，it immobilizes the vehicle，so you cannot move the vehicle that you are driving，”said Carroll.One company founder says the connected technology is playing an important role in people's daily life.He says，“You can buy a washing machine，you can buy a microwave that has Wi Fi and connects to a router.Also the connected technology of the cars has become as important as performance and styling.”[语篇解读] 本文为一篇说明文。
