双语学习报高一21-22外研版40期

双语学习报高一21-22外研版40期语文：一、现代文阅读（9分，每小题3分）阅读下文，完成1—3题陶渊明——魏晋风流的杰出代表安贫乐道与崇尚自然，是陶渊明思考人生得出的两个主要结论，也是他人生的两大支柱和艺术化人生的具体表现。

“安贫乐道”是陶渊明的为人准则。

他所谓的“道”，偏重于个人的品德节操方面，体现了儒家思想。

他特别推崇颜回、黔娄、袁安、荣启期等安贫乐道的贫士，要像他们那样努力保持品德节操的纯洁，决不为追求高官厚禄而玷污自己。

他并不一般地鄙视出仕，而是不肯同流合污。

他希望建功立业，又要功成身退。

他也考虑贫富的问题，安贫和求富在他心中常常发生矛盾，但是他能用“道”来求得平衡：“贫富常交战，道胜无戚颜。

”（《咏贫士》其五）而那些安贫乐道的古代贤人，也就成为他的榜样：“何以慰吾怀，赖古多此贤。

”。

（《咏贫士》其二）他的晚年很贫穷，到了挨饿的程度，但是并没有丧失其为人的准则。

“崇尚自然”是陶渊明对人生的更深刻的哲学思考。

“自然”一词不见于《论语》、《孟子》，而是老庄哲学特有的范畴。

老庄所谓“自然”不同于近代与人类社会相对而言的客观的物质性的“自然界”，它是一种状态，非人为的、本来如此的、自然而然的。

世间万物皆按其本来的面貌而存在，依其自身固有的规律而变化，无须任何外在的条件和力量。

人应当顺应自然的状态和变化，抱朴而含真。

陶渊明希望返归和保持自己本来的、未经世俗异化的、天真的性情。

所谓“质性自然、非矫厉所得。

”（《归去来兮辞序》），说明自己的质性天然如此，受不了绳墨的约束。

所谓“久在樊笼里，复得返自然”（《归园田居》其一），表达了返回自然得到自由的喜悦。

在《形影神》里，他让“神”辨自然以释“形”、“影”之苦。

“形”指代人企求长生的愿望，“影”指代人求善立名的愿望，“神”以自然之义化解它们的苦恼。

形影神三者，还分别代表了陶渊明自身矛盾着的三个方面，三者的对话反映了他人生的冲突与调和。

陶渊明崇尚自然的思想以及由此引导出来的顺化、养真的思想，已形成比较完整而一贯的哲学。

21世纪高一417期文章

21世纪高一年级417期版A learning experience （第一版）HOW did you do in the midterm exam – the first big one of your senior high school career? Were you disappointed by your result, or did you perform better than you expected? One thing’s for sure: However you did, it was simply one exam, and not the most important moment in your lives. These stories from four Senior 1 students will help you think about the experience as well as improve for the next time.Wei Mingyue, 15Miyun No 2 High School, BeijingResult: The result was a big blow to me. I spent a lot of time focusing on the science subjects but I didn’t do as well in them as I wanted to.Pointer: We need to adapt to (适应) senior high school studies. In junior high school, I did well in exams if I worked just a little or learned things by rote (死记硬背). However, it doesn’t work that way in senior high. I have to study the basics and make connections rather than simply memorize (记住) texts.Dong Yijun, 15Chengdu No 7 High Shcool, SichuanResult: My result was not bad, but I still have room for improvement, especially in math. I did well in both Chinese and physics.Pointer: Get enough sleep at night. It’s hard to concentrate in class if you don’t sleep well, and even worse if you skip (跳过) breakfast. After all, not all classes are interesting enough to keep you alert (清醒的).Xu Mengfan, 15Wuxi No 1 High School, JiangsuResult: I ranked almost the same as I did in the senior high school entrance examination. I might have done better if I had performed well in the Chinese exam.Pointer: Never put off a problem until it’s too late to understand and master (掌握) it.Wei Xiaoxian, 16Jinjiang No 1 High School, FujianRe sult: My ranking climbed and I’m happy that I’m making progress.Pointer: Set up a study pair or group. The test in the first month of high school helped me see my weak subjects: math, physics and chemistry. I have paired up with a student who is strong in science but weak in the humanities (文科). The strategy works very well and I’ll stick to it.By Liu Jinmei,21st Century Teens staffA UNESCO rescue?CHINA’S acupuncture (针灸) and Peking Opera were added to the items on the UNESCO (联合国教科文组织) list of Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH, 非物质文化遗产) on November 16. China now has 28 ICH items on the list, including Chinese paper cut and Kunqu Opera.Intangible culture is unlike tangible culture. Tangible culture is material and touchable, such as a castle or a statue. Intangible culture includes songs, music, drama, skills and crafts (工艺). It can be recorded and felt, but cannot be touched. The UN calls such items “Human Treasures.”Chinese medical treatment, acupuncture in particular, has been officially recognized internationally. It is widely practiced in Japan, the US, Germany and South Korea.Countries like South Korea, Japan and France have laid claim to (坚持对……的所有权) acupuncture according to a traditional Chinese medical expert, but the UNESCO development shows that it is in fact Chinese.At the moment, China has about 600,000 recognized doctors in traditional Chinese medicine and almost all are trained in acupuncture, official data shows. But in China, acupuncture has lost popularity. Experts say that traditional Chinese medical treatment can be open-ended –it’s difficult to say how long or short a time a treatment should last.As part of traditional Chinese medical treatment, acupuncture shares in this problem. It also seems to be more dangerous than other treatments – some dislike the idea of the needles. And then there are those that question whether it is really a science. These facts make it difficult for people who practice acupuncture.The problem “discourages traditional Chinese medical workers. Many acupunct ure students at my school change jobs after graduation,” said Li Zhigang, deputy (副的) director of the Acupuncture School of the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.By contrast (相反地), the situation for Peking Opera is better, with more support in China.“Regarded as the essence (精华) of Chinese traditional culture, Peking Opera is already our ICH. Putting it on the UNESCO list will said Wu Zuolai, ofthe definitely (肯定地) help its international promotion,” Chinese National Academy (研究院) of Arts.。

论《21世纪学生英语报》应用于高中英语阅读教学

论《21世纪学生英语报》应用于高中英语阅读教学作者：朱彩云来源：《中学生英语·外语教学与研究》2015年第10期【摘要】《21世纪学生英语报》（高中版）与高考语篇风格接近，能丰富并补充当下使用的人教版教材。

本文以《21世纪学生英语报》（高中版）多个阅读教学课片段为例，具体探索了该报刊阅读在高中英语阅读教学中的应用。

【关键词】《21世纪学生英语报》（高中版）英语阅读教学应用语篇阅读在高考中所占据分值最大，是平时教学活动中受到较大重视的部分。

而一瞥高考中阅读语篇中折射出来的时代性，开发并利用英语课外读物势在必行。

纵观现发行的英语报刊杂志，《21世纪学生英语报》无论从内容上还是难度上适合高中生阅读，是可供开发利用的英语教辅资源。

1. 高考阅读语篇整理与分析英语高考阅读语篇涉略面广，现实性强，体裁丰富，根据《2013年浙江省高考命题解析》中的统计，2004年至2013年的高考阅读语篇与当今人类社会密切相联系，渗透到人文、科技、环境、价值观等方方面面，是时代的浓缩和折射。

2. 教学片段展示笔者以《21世纪学生英语报》（高中版）的阅读课的多节课中的几个片段为例，具体阐述在阅读教学中如何利用《21世纪学生英语报》辅助高中英语教学的尝试。

2.1学情分析及教学目标设定笔者任教年级为高三理科班，男生居多，多数学生爱好广泛，喜爱阅读。

但据统计60%的学生除了接触英语课本和平时的英语练习外，基本上没有阅读英语报刊的习惯。

35%的学生认为学习英语就是为了做题目应付高考，没有任何趣味。

基于以上学情分析，笔者将英语报刊阅读教学的总体目标确定为：（1）精读与泛读相结合，培养学生从英文报纸中获取信息的能力和技巧。

（2）增强学生跨文化意识。

一门外语的学习离不开文化的熏陶，接触和了解英语国家的文化有利于对英语的理解和使用。

（3）对学生进行人文熏陶。

除了阅读理解语篇，浙江省英语高考题目中的完型填空和作文部分充分体现出了歌颂爱和高贵品质的人文特点。

21世纪报高一版阅读理解

21st Century June 24, 2013ABig Ben, the Queen, a plate of ham and eggs –no, no, no. If you’re looking for a symbol of Britain, only one thing passes the test – the umbrella.Now, I know what you’re thinking – we have rain in China and we have umbrellas too. Certainly, I will never forget the way it rained when I lived in Beijing: the streets became instant (立即的) rivers and the sky flashed with lightning for hours on end. People dove (冲) for cover under bin bags, the shops were emptied of their plastic ponchos (斗篷) within seconds, and I found myself soaked (浸透) from head to foot, my poorly-chosen skirt and T-shirt now totally see-through.This would never have happened in Britain. For one thing, during my year in Beijing, it only really rained about 10 times. But although we never get a Beijing-style washout in London, the drizzle (毛毛雨) that does fall is all but constant. Even when the sky is perfectly blue, you can be sure it’s going to cloud over and start drizzling again within the hour.And when it does, there is chaos. Trains stop, drains (下水道) block, and buses break down as if this was the first time the local authorities had seen this wet stuff coming out of the clouds.So – as with so many things in the UK –it’s up to ordinary people to sort themselves out. No self-respecting Briton will ever leave home without his “brolly” – as the umbrella is affectionately (亲切地) known.A brolly has hundreds of uses, even on rare rain-free days. A real gentleman of London will use his umbrella as a walking stick. A traditional game of cricket (板球) can be played using an umbrella as a bat (球棒). Nor do you ever have to be afraid of robbers – your umbrella doubles as a defensive (防卫的) weapon.There is no brolly more British than my own. But it’s not from London or Manchester or anywhere in the UK. It was a gift from my Chinese teacher – in Beijing.How fitting that my No 1 symbol of Britishness – like almost everything in Britain – was made in China.21. The author mentioned her rainy weather experience in Beijing to show that ______.A. many foreigners have embarrassing moments living in BeijingB. the rain in Beijing is usually much heavier than the rain in LondonC.

What British people use a brolly for.BThe newspaper I previously worked for employs a very friendly receptionist. All receptionists are supposed to be friendly, but Connie has such a positive tone, she could brighten your day by saying, “Did anyone ever tell you that you look like a movie star? You ought to go to Hollywood and audition (试镜) for the title role in a new movie: The Return of King Kong.”“A movie star?” you’d say. “Thank you so much. That’s the best compliment I’ve received since my music teacher told me I sing as well as Zhao Benshan.”I appreciated Connie’s friendliness because I’ve come across a few unfriendly receptionists, including one at the Indian embassy in Washington DC who could make both King Kong and Godzilla run away in fear.During a stop at the embassy (大使馆) several years ago, I watched her harass (不断烦扰) visitor after visitor and thought to myself, “One billion people to choose from and they couldn’t hire anyone friendlier. This woman could single-handedly ruin India’s tourist industry. If the Indian government were smarter, they’d appoint her to a new positi on: Director of Prisons. The crime rate would drop so fast, many politicians would lose money.”In contrast, Connie is so pleasant that some people are willing to call the newspaper every day just to greet her and say, “When’s my wedding picture going to appear in the paper? Hopefully before the divorce.”Whatever they say, Connie remains friendly and polite. She’s an excellent receptionist and a true success. Yes, a success.For some reason, we seem to reserve the term “success” for people with money, f ame or power. But who gave them such a monopoly (专利)? You don’t have to be an actor or entrepreneur (企业家) or software expert to be a success. Receptionist, farmer, teacher, homemaker – all can be just as successful, even if they’ve never made a single appearance on a talk show.25.

People who appear on a talk show are always successful.28. Which of the following best describes the article’s message?A. Be friendly and polite.B. Do not go on a talk show.C. Success is difficult to attain.D. Be an excellent receptionist.CYour smartphone (智能手机) can do a lot of things. It can call people. It connects to the Internet. It enables you to play fun games. But there is a dark side to this smart little device (设备) of yours – it might also spread disease.“People are just as likely to get sick from their phones as from handles of the bathroom,” Jeffrey Cain, the president of the American Academy of Family Physicians, told The Wall Street Journal.This may be hard to believe, but scientists reached this conclusion after they tested eight random cell phones from an office in Chicago. All the tested phones showed high numbers of coliforms (大肠菌), a kind of bacteria found in excrement (粪便), with about 2,700 to 4,200 units of the bacteria on each phone. In drinking water, the healthy limit is less than 1 unit per 100 ml of water. This bacteria can cause flu, pinkeye (红眼病) and diarrhea (腹泻).Although computers, keys and pens all carry germs (细菌), our smartphones get far dirtier. They touch a lot of stuff, including our hands and the inside of our pocket or purse. We take them almost everywhere: the bus, the subway and who hasn’t played Angry Bir ds or Fruit Ninja while sitting on the toilet?“Some things that we think are personal are actually more public than we imagine,” Cain said.What’s even worse is that after the phone returns from its dirty trip, it then spends most of its timecozying up to our faces. You don’t think about how often you touch your phone to your face, do you? Our noses, mouths and ears are all warm and rich in grease (油脂), an environment that germs really like.Compared to traditional keypads (键盘), touch screens transmit (传播) germs more easily to hands. According to Time magazine’s website, an expert in Australia warned that playing with iPads and iPhones at Apple stores is a health risk.So how do you keep your smartphone clean? Alcohol is effective when used to kill germs from the back and side of your phone. But it might harm the screen. There is one simple and reliable way you can reduce the germs on your phone’s s urface: wash your hands regularly.29. The underlined word “dark” in the first paragraph means ______.A. blackB. hopelessC. unclearD. unpleasant30. By saying “Some things we think are personal are actually more public than we imagine”, Cain meant that ______.A. people love to share their smartphones more than they realizeB. our personal items could be as risky to our health as public itemsC. smartphones are used in public places more than people realizeD. most people don’t know how dirty their ce ll phones are31. Compared with traditional keypads, smartphones _______.A. are greasier and need more alcohol to cleanB. make contact with our hands more oftenC. get warm more easily and are harder to cleanD. get much nearer to our faces32. What is the article mainly about?A. Tips on the use of smartphones.B. Health problems caused by the use of smartphones.C. The danger of coliforms infection.D. The influence that smartphones have on our life.DSeventeen years ago, a sheep was born in a research center in Scotland. But unlike other lambs, this one drew the attention of the entire world. Why? She was the first sheep born thanks to cloning (克隆技术). The researchers named her Dolly.The birth of Dolly suggested an answer to a question that had been around for a long time: Is there any way we can bring back extinct animals, like the mammoth (猛犸象)? Cloning seems to be the most likely way.However, cloning is far more complicated and difficult than you might imagine. It requires (需要) at least three main ingredients: DNA from the animal to be cloned, an egg to receive that DNA and a mother animal to carry the embryo (胚胎). Any one of these going wrong can lead to the failure of the whole experiment.“The potential of cloning is intriguing (吸引人的),” Oliver Ryder, an expert at the San Diego Zoo, US, told National Geographic. “But it’s been very little tested in terms of its practical application (应用).”Take the birth of Dolly as an example. According to Scientific American, scientists injected DNA into nearly 300 eggs, but only 30 turned into embryos. Out of those embryos, only five developed into lambs after being implanted (植入) into a mother sheep. But four of them died shortly after birth and only one survived to adulthood. That’s Dolly.The success rate would probably be even lower for extinct animals. For one, the DNA of extinct animals is almost impossible to find. Imagine that we had the DNA of a mammoth, for example. Scientists say that an elephant’s egg would probably be used to receive the DNA since the elephant is the living species most closely related to the mammoth. But any mismatch (不匹配) between DNA and egg – a very likely outcome – could cause the early death of the cloned animal.As you can see, the chance of cloning a dinosaur is small. But scientists are confident that someday cloning could at least be used to save endangered animals from extinction.“Once cloning of endangered animals is properly established, it will be a very powerful tool,” said Pasqualino Loi, scientist of the University of Teramo in Italy.33. The birth of Dolly suggests that ______, according to the article.A. the success rate for sheep cloning is very reliableB. cloning technology can be easily put into practiceC. cloning technology has great potentialD. many extinct animals could soon reappear on Earth34. Which of the following is TRUE about the cloning of mammoths?A. Scientists have already found mammoth DNA.B. Elephant eggs and mammoth DNA might not match.C. Scientists are sure that they can bring mammoths back to life through cloning.D. The mammoth cloning experiment might lead to the birth of new species.35. What might Pasqualino Loi agree with according to the text?A. Scientists should clone as many animal species as possible.B. Scientists have already succeeded in cloning certain endangered species.C. Cloning technology could help us save endangered animals.D. Most people still haven’t recognized the potential of cloning technology.三、任务型阅读阅读短文并根据文章内容回答问题,注意答案不要超过题目要求的词数。

Basketball dream

《二十一世纪学生英文报》高一版时间：2018-10-22期号：727期词数：378 建议阅读时间6分钟Basketball dreamOn New Year’s Day, the Bay Area Basketball Academy launched (推出) a campaign to teach more kids to play basketball with a free clinic (培训班) aimed at local youth aged 8 to 14.The nonprofit organization (非盈利机构) was co-founded by six students who go to different high schools.“In the other camps, kids had to pay to come – so we decided that we could do it fo r free,” said Gene Wang, president of the academy. “We could bring our experiences to the table and teach kids not only how to play basketball, but also other stuff that we’ve learned as student-athletes.”The six students play for the Silicon Valley Basketball Club. Having volunteered as assistant coaches for younger teams in the club in previous years, the boys felt they could have a positive impact on the community.They then created the Bay Area Basketball Academy. In member Roy Yuan’s words, they “want to show that even when you get to high school, you can still follow your dream and play basketball.”There were some hardships at first. Teaching the fundamentals (基础) – how to dribble (运球), pass, shoot – meant coaching 50 kids at a time.“You have to put yourself out there and project your voice so the kids can hear you and respect you as a coach,” John Duan said. “I lost my voice the first time.”Another big challenge is finding the time.“All of us can find three hours,” Gene Wang said. “But it’s difficult to find three hours where we’re all free together.”“So we have to plan ahead of time. It involves a lot of communication and teaches us about teamwork,” Yuan added.The coaches gather to discuss their format (形式) for the drills (训练) and figure out who will coach each group of kids.“There can be a big skill gap,” Wang said. “Some kids have been playing basketball a long time. There are also a lot of other kids who have never played basketball before. So you’ve got to keep in mind that there’re many differentskill levels and you have to adapt to every single one.”The six coaches have learned a lot from this project. “It made us realize that we all like to help people,” Wang said.BY VYTAS MAZEIKA, MERCURY NEWSBasketball dream (P3)Choose the best answer:1.
