While fighting world hunger continues to be the matter of vital importance according to a recent report from the World Health Organization (WHO), more people now die from being overweight, or say, from being extremely fat, than from being underweight. It's the good life that's more likely to kill us these days.Worse, nearly 18 million children under the age of five around the world are estimated to be overweight. What's going on?We really don't have many excuses for our weight problems. The dangers of the problem have been drilled into us by public-health campaigns since 2001 and the message is getting through—up to a point.In the 1970s, Finland, for example, had the highest rate of heart disease in the world and being overweight was its main cause. Not any more. A public-health campaign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 80 per cent over the past three decades.Maybe that explains why the percentage of people in Finland taking diet pills doubled between 2001 and 2005, and doctors even offer surgery of removing fat inside and change the shape of the body. That has become a sort of fashion. No wonder it ranks as the world's most body -conscious country.We know what we should be doing to lose weight—but actually doing it is another matter. By far the most popular excuse is not taking enough exercise. More than half of us admit we lack willpower.Others blame good food. They say: it's just too inviting and it makes them overeat. Still others lay the blame on the Americans, complaining that pounds have piled on thanks to eating too much American-style fast food.Some also blame their parents—their genes. But unfortunately, the parents are wronged because they're normal in shape,or rather slim.It's a similar story around the world, although people are relatively unlikely to have tried to lose weight. Parents are eager to see their kids shape up. Do as I say—not as I do.1.What is the “strange” point mentioned in the first sentence?A.The good life is a greater risk than the bad life.B.Starvation is taking more people's lives in the world.C.WHO report shows people's unawareness of food safety.D.Overweight issue remains unresolved despite WHO'sefforts.2.Why does the author think that people have no excuse for being overweight?A.A lot of effective diet pills are available.B.Body image has nothing to do with good food.C.They have been made fully aware of its dangers.D.There are too many overweight people in the world.3.The example of Finland is used to illustrate________.A.the cause of heart diseaseB.the fashion of body shapingC.the effectiveness of a campaignD.the history of a body-conscious country4.Which would be the best title for the passage?A.Actions or Excuses?B.Overweight or Underweight?C.WHO in a DilemmaD.No Longer Dying of HungerBIt is well known that the Japanese people's love of fish is almost as strong as a bee's interest in honey.As fish populations were decreasing,fishing companies were forced to fish further and further away from the shore.Then they had a big challenge—how to keep the fish fresh for longer.So they decided to keep the fish stored in freezers on the boats.But the public did not like frozen fish.So again the fishing companies had a new bigger challenge.What they decided to do was have fish tanks on their boats.After catching fishes,they would put them in the tanks and keepthem living there until they got back to shore.But in this protected environment,lacking predators(掠食者),the fish stopped moving around.The Japanese public felt these dull fish did not taste fresh,which had an unpleasant effect upon sales.Once again the fishing companies had an even bigger challenge...Stop for a minute!Before we go any further,I would like to ask “What are your challenges?How do you handle an unexpected challenge?”May I think it this way that you should try to attack your challenges?Conquer them with a Swiss Army knife.Take the most proper and simple tool that you can adopt to deal with your situation.Now back to our story.How did the Japanese finally figure out the fresh fish problem?Sharks!You might think the same.Sharks were caught and put into the tanks with other fishes.Don't sharks eat fish?Well,they do eat a few fish,but they did also keep more fish active and alert(警觉的).The fish stay fresh because they are challenged.Now,try_to_keep_yourself_fresh_by_finding_your_own_shark_to_offer_yourself_a_challenge_in_your _own_business_and_career.5.The main reason for the fishing companies to fish in the far sea is that________.A.the fish resource near the shore was decreasingB.the fishes farther away from the sea tasted fresherC.people would prefer eating fresh fishes to less fresh onesD.it was getting harder and harder to keep fishesfresh6.Which was the BEST way for the fishing companies to keep fishes fresh?A.Getting the fishes frozen.B.Storing the fishes with salt.C.Putting the fishes in tanks.D.Keeping the fishes with sharks.7.The relationship between fishes and sharks is similar to that between________in nature.A.dogs and catsB.monkeys and mosquitoesC.wolves and antelopesD.tigers and lions8.The purpose for the author to write the passage is to________.A.tell the readers how the Japanese fishing companies workB.tell the readers how the Japanese keep the fishes freshC.suggest readers looking for challenges to makeprogressD.suggest readers finding a shark to keep the fishes freshⅣ.翻译句子1.我们习惯于早起做早操了。

are advertised on its TV channels,radio stations and websites will have to meet the company's nutrition standard for limiting calories and reducing fat,sodium and sugar.Many foods,such as fruit drinks,candy and snack cakes,won't meet the standard.First Lady Michelle Obama called it a“game changer”.“Disney is doing what no major media company has ever done before in the U.S.-and what I hope every company will do in the future.”“This is a landmark(里程碑),because a major media company is taking responsibility for what food they advertise to children.”says Margo Wootan,director of nutrition policy for the Center for Science in the Public Interest.“This should be a real wake-up call to Nickelodeon(an American children's channel)and the Cartoon Network to do the same.”But the company will still be able to advertise“better-for-you versions(种类)of products that are not perfectly nutritious.”Under the new standards,breakfast cereals that are advertised will have to contain fewer than 10 grams of sugar in a serving,Wootan says.“That's a good step forward,but it's not perfectly nutritious.”Jon Leibowitz,chairman of the Federal Trade Commission,says Disney is making this move“at perhaps some risk of affecting their incomes,so that's why we should praise them.”Food marketing is really“important because it shapes the way kids are fed,”Wootan says.“If we don't deal with food marketing to kids,we don't have any chance of addressing childhood obesity.”Currently,a third of children are overweight,putting them at a greater risk for serious health problems.At its theme parks,Disney began offering healtheir kids' meals,serving carrots and other vegetables,fruits,low-fat milk and yogurt at meals,instead of fries and soft drinks.1.The underl ined word “it” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to ________.A.the wake-up callB.the Walt Disney CompanyC.the habit of eating junk foodD.the nutrition standard in the US2.What does Margo Wootan think of Disney's new move?A.He thinks it is a risk.B.He thinks very highly of it.C.He thinks it will get wide support.D.He thinks it will affect their incomes.3.According to Disney's new standards,________.A.soft drinks are not allowed to be advertisedB.foods that are advertised should be fat-freeC.only perfectly nutritious products can be advertisedD.foods advertised should contain fewer than 10 grams of sugar4.What can we learn from Margo Wootan's words in Paragraph 7?A.The cause of childhood obesity.B.The importance of food marketing.C.Childhood obesity is not a big problem.D.Many kids are worried about their shapes.5.What is the main idea of the text?A.Disney calls for a ban on junk food.B.Disney aims to help kids lose weight.C.Disney is to serve healthier food for kids.D.Disney is to quit taking ads for junk food aimed at kids.B(2013·中山高二调研)It is well known that the Japanese people's love of fish is almost as strong as a bee's interest in honey.As fish populations were decreasing,fishing companies were forced to

For many, it's the first time that they' ve left home to live in a new environment. But after the hustle and bustle (喧嚣) of a few weeks, excitement gives way to a less enjoyable emotion—homesickness.Homesickness manifests (显露) itself in many ways. You may miss mum's cooking, your pets, or even your old bed. All this becomes a fond memory of the past. Homesickness can be a bitter feeling for many students, especially when faced with the challenges of settling into an unfamiliar environment.But remember,you're not alone. According to a recent BBC article, 70 percent of British college students experience homesickness. In this increasingly globalized world in which people migrate to faraway places for a relationship, education or work, homesickness is a feeling shared by many adults.Homesickness can have similar symptoms to depression and in extreme cases it can develop into a panic attack. As for the term, homesickness or nostalgia wasn't invented until the 17th century. It was considered a disorder by a Swiss physician, who attributed soldiers' mental and physical discom fort to their longing to return home, “nostos” from Greek, and the accompanying pain, “algos”.Studies in recent years, however, have shown that nostalgia may have some benefits to our mental health. After a decade of surveys and researches, Constantine Sedikides,a US social psychologist, found that nostalgia is what makes us human. He explains that nostalgia can resistloneliness, boredom and anxiety. Therefore, it's necessary for college students to learn some ways to overcome the uncomfortable feeling.语篇解读:文章通过介绍大学新生常有的想家情绪,引出想家带来的负面后果,但是同时作者也指出想家是很正常的,有时也会给学生带来好处。

姓名,年级:时间:课时作业(六) Unit 2 Section ⅢLearning language &usinglanguageⅠ.阅读理解AThere are only a few truly pleasant smells to wake to in the morning。
For me, it's the smell of freshly brewed coffee. Just a sniff of it makes me jump out of bed and rush to the kitchen for a gulp of the hot black liquid。
If you're a big fan of coffee, you'll understand that opening a new packet of coffee releases an amazing smell—fresh, roasted coffee beans。
And you’ll be able to identify the beans' origin-Colombia, Vietnam or Brazil. Tim Hayward is a food writer and coffee shop owner; he believes the smell is absolutely vital. “When you walk into the coffee shop in the morning and that smell hits you, you're getting physiological responses。
”I know from experience when I walk into a cafe, my mouth begins to water and it’s the smell that makes me feel good. However, this feeling sometimes turns to disappointment. This is particularly the case whenI order a coffee to go in a tall paper cup and sip the liquid througha hole in the lid。

Organization(WHO).Because weight depends on height,they use a standard measure called body mass index(BMI),which is calculated as the weight in kilograms divided by the height in meters squared.Healthy weight is described as a BMI anywhere between 18.5 and 24.9 in adults,whereas 25 to 29.9 is overweight and 30+is obese(肥胖的).The new study suggests that in the elderly,these boundaries may be too narrow.While no one is questioning that extra fat increases health risks in young and middle-aged adults,it may reduce the effect on old age,said Dr. Thomas Yoshikawa.So far,nobody knows exactly how BMI affects lifespan(寿命)in older people.Some researchers think that it acts as an energy reserve that can help the elderly cope with illness.For the study,Australian researchers followed more than 9,000 men and women who were between 70 and 75 years old at the outset.The participants reported their height and weight as well as various factors related to health and lifestyle.About 33 percent of the women and 44 percent of the men were overweight.Over 10 years,more than 2,000 of the participants died.Women who had an active life and didn't smoke were the most likely to be alive at the end of the study.But neither health nor lifestyle could fully explain why overweight people of both sexes survived longer than the normal-weight people,who fared no better than obese people.In terms of survival,the best BMI was between 26 and 27,well within the overweight range.The new results agree with earlier research showing that fat may be beneficial in old age.6.What does the underlined word“prime”in Paragraph 1 mean?A.The time before retirement.B.The strongest or most successful time.C.The later years in life.D.The years suitable to study and work.7.If a person is 2 meters in height and 100 kg in weight,his BMI is ________.A.30 B.28C.25 D.208.We can infer from the passage that ________.A.WHO should change the standard of BMIB.we shouldn't lose weight when we are oldC.we needn't worry about our weight throughout our lifeD.extra fat does more harm to the young than the elderly9.What do we know about the study from the passage?A.It was done by WHO.B.It lasted for more than 10 years.C.Most of its participants were men.D.It found women live longer than men.10.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Fat has little to do with people's lifespan.B.People in their 30s should pay more attention to their health.C.If you're 70 and slightly overweight,you may have a long lifespan.D.People shouldn't care about their weight too much.Ⅳ.完成句子1.过去英国的羊毛可用来换酒。

But, at over 500 years of age, time is catching up with the Mona Lisa.The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci (莱昂纳多·达·芬奇)in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫博物馆)where it is housed.“The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago,”the museum said. Visitors have noticed the changes but repairing the world's most famous painting is not easy. Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current(现在的) chemical state.Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year,and many are attracted by the mystery of her smile.“It is very interesting that when you're not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops,”said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University.“It's because direct vision(视觉) is excellent at picking up details, but less suited to look at shadows. Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”However,the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile. Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it was eventually sold to France's King Francis Ⅰin 1169.In 1911,the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat. He said he planned to return it to Italy. The painting was sent back to France two years later.During World War Ⅱ,French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.1. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means the Mona Lisa________.A.is losing its valueB.is being damaged after so many yearsC.is getting more valuable with years passingD.will rot away2.The smile of the Mona Lisa can only be seen________.A.by indirect vision B.at a distanceC.by direct vision D.in shadows3.Which of the following is TRUE about Mona Lisa?A.It was once taken away and hidden up by German forces.B.Its painter himself loved it greatly and always kept it in a shade.C.Mona Lisa stops smiling when you look at her wanting to see her smiles. D.King Francis Ⅰbought it and then returned it to Italy.4.From the last paragraph,we can infer that________.A.many interesting stories have been written about the Mona LisaB.people are interested in the stories about the Mona LisaC.some mysteries still remain to be solved about the Mona LisaD.many more stories will be told about the Mona LisaBThe State of Colorado has four of the best parks out of the 58 national parks in the United States. The parks have some of the best scenery of all the national parks. Black Canyon(峡谷)of Gunnison National parkThis park offers the most breathtaking views from up in the mountains into the canyons below. While exploring the canyons,you will find that the walls drop nearly straight down into the narrow valleys of the snake-like rivers below. Visitors are offered more than 100 camping sites,and a lot of bird species and many animals are native to the area.Rocky Mountain National ParkIt is the only national park in the north central region in the state of Colorado. Elevations in this park are anywhere from 8,000 feet to 14,259 feet at the top of Longs Peak. While traveling throughout this park you will notice two very different climates because of the difference the upper peaks of the Rocky Mountains make.You can enjoy 359 miles of hiking trails,a lot of places for camping,horseback riding and beautiful scenery.Mesa Verde National ParkThis is probably the most interesting national park,offering a fascinating trip back in time to 600 AD up to 1300 AD. This park was declared a protected national park in 1906 because of the cliff dwellings(住所)that were found throughout the area,which were once home to American Indians. Many of these dwellings can be walked through,while you imagine what each room may have been used for so many years ago.Great Sand Dunes(沙丘)National ParkThe Great Sand Dunes National Park lies in south central Colorado,about 127 miles from Pueblo. This park has the tallest sand dunes in all of North America and has trails for hiking. The natural sandy beaches around the small rivers and lakes are good for swimmers.5.What's the most breathtaking thing in the Black Canyon of Gunnison National Park?A.The animals. B.The walls.C.The rivers. D.The camping sites.6.The underlined word “elevations”in Paragraph 3 probably means“________”.A.the changes of weatherB.the high and large mountainsC.the heights above sea levelD.the tourist areas7.In the Rocky Mountain National Park,tourists may NOT be able to ________.A.go sightseeing B.boatC.ride a horse D.camp8.What's the author's purpose in writing this passage?A.Persuading people to visit Colorado while inAmerica.B.Telling people which park is the best of the four in Colorado.C.Introducing the best four parks in Colorado to people.D.Telling people some traveling information in Colorado.Ⅳ.翻译句子1.政府呼吁每一位公民节约用水。

announced that it plans to advertise only healthier foods to kids.By 2015,all food and drink products that are advertised on its TV channels,radio stations and websites will have to meet the company's nutrition standard for limiting calories and reducing fat,sodium and sugar.Many foods,such as fruit drinks,candy and snack cakes,won't meet the standard.First Lady Michelle Obama called it a“game changer”.“Disney is doing what nomajor media company has ever done before in the U.S.-and what I hope every company will do in the future.”“This is a landmark(里程碑),because a major media company is taking responsibility for what food they advertise to children.”says Margo Wootan,director of nutrition policy for the Center for Science in the Public Interest.“This should be a real wake-up call to Nickelodeon(an American children's channel)and the Cartoon Network to do the same.”But the company will still be able to advertise“better-for-you versions(种类)of products that are not perfectly nutritious.”Under the new standards,breakfast cereals that are advertised will have to contain fewer than 10 grams of sugar in a serving,Wootan says.“That's a good step forward,but it's not perfectly nutritious.”Jon Leibowitz,chairman of the Federal Trade Commission,says Disney is making this move“at perhaps some risk of affecting their incomes,so that's why we should praise them.”Food marketing is really“important because it shapes the way kids are fed,”Wootan says.“If we don't deal with food marketing to kids,we don't have any chance of addressing childhood obesity.”Currently,a third of children are overweight,putting them at a greater risk for serious health problems.At its theme parks,Disney began offering healthier kids' meals,serving carrots and other vegetables,fruits,low-fat milk and yogurt at meals,instead of fries and soft drinks.1.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to ________.A.the wake-up callB.the Walt Disney CompanyC.the habit of eating junk foodD.the nutrition standard in the US2.What does Margo Wootan think of Disney's new move?A.He thinks it is a risk.B.He thinks very highly of it.C.He thinks it will get wide support.D.He thinks it will affect their incomes.3.According to Disney's new standards,________.A.soft drinks are not allowed to be advertisedB.foods that are advertised should be fat-freeC.only perfectly nutritious products can be advertisedD.foods advertised should contain fewer than 10 grams of sugar4.What can we learn from Margo Wootan's words in Paragraph 7?A.The cause of childhood obesity.B.The importance of food marketing.C.Childhood obesity is not a big problem.D.Many kids are worried about their shapes.5.What is the main idea of the text?A.Disney calls for a ban on junk food.B.Disney aims to help kids lose weight.C.Disney is to serve healthier food for kids.D.Disney is to quit taking ads for junk food aimed at kids.BIt is well known that the Japanese people's love of fish is almost as strong as a bee's interest in honey.As fish populations were decreasing,fishing companies were forced to fish further and further away from the shore.Then they had a big challenge—how to keep the fish fresh for longer.So they decided to keep the fish stored in freezers on the boats.But the public did not like frozen fish.So again the fishing companies had a new bigger challenge.What they decided to do was have fish tanks on their boats.After catching fishes,they would put them in the tanks and keep them living there until they got back to shore.But in this protected environment,lacking predators(掠食者),the fish stopped moving around.The Japanese public felt these dull fish did not taste fresh,which had an unpleasant effect upon sales.Once again the fishing companies had an even bigger challenge...Stop for a minute!Before we go any further,I would like to ask “What are your challenges?How do you handle an unexpected challenge?”May I think it this waythat you should try to attack your challenges?Conquer them with a Swiss Army knife.Take the most proper and simple tool that you can adopt to deal with your situation.Now back to our story.How did the Japanese finally figure out the fresh fish problem?Sharks!You might think the same.Sharks were caught and put into the tanks with other fishes.Don't sharks eat fish?Well,they do eat a few fish,but they did also keep more fish active and alert(警觉的).The fish stay fresh because they are challenged.Now,try_to_keep_yourself_fresh_by_finding_your_own_shark_to_offer_yourself_a_challe nge_in_your_own_business_and_career.6.The main reason for the fishing companies to fish in the far sea is that________.A.the fish resource near the shore was decreasingB.the fishes farther away from the sea tasted fresherC.people would prefer eating fresh fishes to less fresh onesD.it was getting harder and harder to keep fishesfresh7.Which was the BEST way for the fishing companies to keep fishes fresh?A.Getting the fishes frozen.B.Storing the fishes with salt.C.Putting the fishes in tanks.D.Keeping the fishes with sharks.8.The relationship between fishes and sharks is similar to that between________in nature.A.dogs and catsB.monkeys and mosquitoesC.wolves and antelopesD.tigers and lions9.The underlined part of the last paragraph means“________”.A.If you went fishing,you might do as the fishing companies didB.Try to find a big shark,and you will meet yourchallengeC.To succeed in life,you should always be ready to meet challengesD.Sharks are usually compared to the challenges in people's life10.The purpose for the

Unit 1 Art reading课时作业阅读理解A(2017·全国卷Ⅱ)When a leafy plant is under attack,it doesn't sit quietly. Back in 1983,two scientists,Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin,reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm.What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds,VOCs for short.Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked .It's a plant's way of crying out.But is anyone listening?Apparently.Because we can watch the neighbours react.Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away.But others do double duty .They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the_tables_are_turned.The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.In study after study,it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors .The damage is usually more serious on the first plant,but the neighbors, relatively speaking ,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don't know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn't a true, intentional back and forth.Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There's a whole lot going on.语篇解读:研究发现,植物受到昆虫攻击时,会通过两种方式实施自我保护:第一种是释放一种化学物质,让周围的邻居接收后减少伤害;第二种是产生一种香味引来袭击者的天敌消灭袭击者。

the rainy seasons,which is expected to provide guidance for experts making weather predictions.Every year,moist(潮湿的)air masses,known as monsoons,produce large amounts of rainfall in India,East Asia,Northern Australia and East Africa.All this wet air is pulled in by a high pressure area over the Indian Ocean and a low pressure area to the south.According to Edward Cook,a weather expert at Columbia University in New York,the complex nature of the climate systems across Asia makes monsoons hard to predict.In addition,climate records for the area are too recent and not detailed enough to be of much use.Therefore,he and other researchers spent more than 15 years traveling across Asia,looking for trees old enough to provide long-term records.They measured the rings inside thousands of ancient trees in more than 300 places.Rainfall has a direct link to the growth and Width of rings on some kinds of trees.The researchers put together a Monsoon Asia Drought Atlas(地图集)documenting monsoons over seven centuries,beginning in the 1,300s.“If the monsoon fails or is a very weak one,the trees affected by monsoons at that location might have a very narrow ring,”said Professor Cook.“But if the monsoon is very strong,the trees affected by that monsoon might have a wide ring for that year.”With all the information,researchers say they can begin to improve computer climate models for predicting the behavior of monsoons.“There has been widespread starvation and loss of human life in the past during large droughts while a particularly heavy monsoon can cause serious flooding,”said Eugene Wahl,a scientist with America's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.“So,the regional moisture models,dryness and wetness over such along period of time in great detail mean a kind of victory for climate science.”1.What's the passage mainly about?A.The effects of Asian monsoons.B.The necessity of weather forecast.C.The achievements of Edward Cook.D.A breakthrough in monsoon predictions.2.It is difficult for experts to predict Asian monsoons because ________.A.it is hard to keep long-term climate recordsB.they are formed under complex climate systemsC.they influence many nationsD.there is heavy rainfall in Asia3.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Long and detailed climate records can offer useful information for monsoon research.B.The Monsoon Asia Drought Atlas has a monsoon record for about 1,300 years.C.The trees affected by monsoons grow fast if the monsoon is weak.D.The rainfall might be low although the monsoon is strong in monsoon-affected areas.4.According to Professor Cook,the rings of the trees ________.A.determine the regional climateB.have a great influence on the regional climateC.offer people information about the regional rainfallD.reflect all kinds of regional climate information5.What do we know about the research according to Eugene Wahl?A.It is a great achievement in climate science.B.It should include information about human life in the past.C.It has analyzed moisture models worldwide.D.It will help people prevent droughts and floods.B(2013·重庆高考)It is widely known that any English conversation begins with The Weather. Such a fixation with the weather finds expression in Dr. Johnson's famous comment that “When two English meet, their first talk is of weather.” Though Johnson's observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago, most commentators fail to come up with a convincing explanation for this English weather -speak.Bill Bryson, for example, concludes that, as the English weather is not at all exciting, the obsession with it can hardly be understood. He argues that “To anoutsider, the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it.”Simply, the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable weather is almost unknown in the British Isles.Jeremy Paxman, however, disagrees with Bryson, arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive. Bryson is wrong, he says, because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do wit h the natural phenomena. “The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty.”According to him, the weather in England is very changeable and uncertain and it attracts the English as well as the outsider.Bryson and Paxman stand for common misconceptions about the weather-speak among the English. Both commentators, somehow, are missing the point. The English weather conversation is not really about the weather at all. English weather-speak is a system of signs, which is developed to help the speakers overcome the natural reserve and actually talk to each other. Everyone knows conversations starting with weather-speak are not requests for weather data. Rather, they are routine greetings, conversation starters or the blank “fillers”. In other words, English weather -speak is a means of social bonding.6.The author mentions Dr. Johnson's comment to show that________.A.most commentators agree with Dr. JohnsonB.Dr. Johnson is famous for his weather observationC.the comment was accurate two hundred years agoD.English conversations usually start with theweather7.What does the underlined word “obsession” most probably refer to?A.A social trend.B.An emotional state.C.A historical concept.D.An unknown phenomenon.8.According to the passage,Jeremy Paxman believes that________.A.Bill Bryson has little knowledge of the weatherB.there is nothing special about the English weatherC.the English weather attracts people to the British IslesD.English people talk about the weather for its uncertainty9.What is the author's main purpose of writing the passage?A.To explain what English weather-speak is about.B.To analyse misconceptions about the English weather.C.To find fault with both Bill Bryson and Jeremy Paxman.D.To convince people that the English weather is changeable.Ⅳ.翻译句子1.据说,这个小女孩在英语考试中得了第一。
