不能用来引导非限制性定语从句。逗号 1、3 逗号 2、4、5、6 that 一、引导定语从句的关系代词1. 引导定语从句的常用关系代词的用法关系代词 先行词 在从句中所作的成分who 人 主语、宾语whom 人 宾语which 物 主语、宾语that 人或物 主语、宾语、表语whose 人或物 定语as 人或物 主语、宾语、表语We’ll reach the sales target in a month which/that we set at thebeginning of the year.我们将在一个月内完成年初定下的销售目标。However, because of poverty,Nolan has to leave high school andfind a job, whose life is full of ups and downs.然而,由于贫困,诺兰不得不从高中辍学去找工作,他的生活充满了起起落落。This woman has set a good example to her son,who is a really luckyguy.这位女士给她的儿子树立了一个好榜样,他是一个非常幸运的小伙子。2. 关系代词that和which的用法区别只用that 的情况 先行词是all、much、few、little、everything、anything、nothing、none、the one等不定代词时先行词被any、few、little、much、some、no等词修饰或被the only、the very、the same、the last等修饰时先行词是形容词的最高级或先行词前有形容词最高级修饰时先行词是序数词或先行词前有序数词对其进行修饰时先行词既指人又指物时主句是以who、which、what等开头的特殊疑问句时只用which 的情况 在非限制性定语从句中用which不用that介词后用which,不用thatDo you have anything that you want to say for yourself?你有什么要为自己说的吗?We should do everything that is useful to the people.我们应该做一切有益于人民的事。This is the smallest computer that can be found in the world now.这是目前发现的世界上最小的计算机。Which is the kindergarten

basketball 三、定语从句中关系词的选用方法一:用关系代词还是关系副词取决于从句中的谓语动词。如果是及物动词,就要用关系代词;如果是不及物动词,则要用关系副词。方法二:准确判断关系词在定语从句中所作的成分(主、宾、定、状、表),也能正确选择出是用关系代词还是关系副词。关系词在从句中作主语、宾语、表语或定语时,应用关系代词(who、whom、that、which、whose、as);关系词在从句中作状语时,应用关系副词(where作地点状语,when作时间状语,why作原因状语)。The letter that/which I received yesterday was from my father.昨天我收到的那封信是我父亲寄来的。This is the mountain village where I stayed last year.这是我去年待过的山村。四、“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句1. “介词+关系代词”结构中介词的确定方法方法一:根据从句中的谓语动词或主要的形容词确定介词。方法二:根据定语从句修饰的先行词确定介词。方法三:根据句子所要表达的意思确定介词。The poor man has no house in which he can live.那个穷人没有房子住。I don’t know the reason for which he was late for school.我不知道他为什么上学迟到。This is the pilot by whom my son was saved.这就是那位救了我儿子的飞行员。2. “介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句注意事项(1)“介词+关系代词”结构中的关系代词通常用which或whom。Do you know the man with whom Mr Black talked just now?你认识刚才和布莱克先生说话的那个人吗?(2)关系副词where、when、why有时可以用“介词+关系代词”替换,介词取决于先行词及“介词+which”在从句中所作的成分,why只能用for which替换。This is the house where I lived two years ago.=This is the house in which I lived two years ago.这就是两年前我居住的那个房子。(3)“不定代词或数词+介词+which/whom”引导的定语从句,说明整体中的一部分。Last week, only two people came to look at the house, neitherof whom wanted to buy it.上周只有两个人来看房子,他们两个人都不想买。(4)“the+名词+of which”或“of which+the+名词”可替换为“whose+名词”,引导定语从句。The house, the windows of which/of which thewindows/whose windows were damaged, has now been repaired.那所窗子遭到破坏的房子现在已经修好了。五、限制性定语从句与非限制性定语从句1. 限制性定语从句与非限制性定语从句的区别限制性定语从句 非限制性定语从句和先行词的关系密切,如果省略,主句意义往往不完整 和先行词关系并不十分密切(起补充说明的作用,删除后不影响整个句子意义的表达)主句和从句不用逗号隔开 主句和从句用逗号隔开只可以修饰先行词,不可以修饰主句或主句的一部分 既可以修饰先行词,也可以修饰整个主句或主句的一部分He is the man who came to see you yesterday.他是昨天来看你的那个人。The sports meeting was put off, which astonished us.运动会推迟了,这让我们很吃惊。2. as/which引导的非限制性定语从句的区别as 引导非限制性定语从句时,修饰整个主句或主句的一部分 可放在句首、句中或句尾,意为“正如……,正像……”;从句的谓语动词多为see、know、expect、say、mention、report等which 引导非限制性定语从句时,修饰整个主句或主句的一部分,也可修饰先行词 只能置于主句后,常译为“这一点,这件事”等;which引导的从句与主句之间常含有并列或因果关系As we all know, smoking is harmful to health.众所周知,吸烟有害健康。He finished the task ahead of time, which is very important to us.他提前完成了任务,这对我们很重要。3. 非限制性定语从句与并列句的识别非限制性定语从句与主句之间常用逗号隔开,并且不能加入and、but、so等连接词。并列句一般由and、but、so、or等词连接。He paid the boy $10 for washing the windows, most of whichhadn’t been cleaned for at least a year.=He paid the boy $10 for washing the windows, and most of themhadn’t been cleaned for at least a year.他付给那个男孩10美元擦窗户,大部分窗户至少有一年没擦了。【即时演练3】 完成句子①Trading leather shoes is the business .皮鞋生意是格林一家致力于的事业。② , talks between the two countriesare making progress.正如报纸上报道的那样,这两个国家之间的会谈正在取得进展。to which the

If communicating internally at the UN was challenging, interactingwith the outside world was much harder.How would we reach people inplaces where newspapers and televisions are still not widely available?How could we generate media coverage there? Communicating globallymay require changing the way you interview senior communicationprofessionals in 31 countries about how they help clients modify theirmessages and strategies for particular cultures.I have found that some ofthe biggest factors to consider when communicating in a new cultureinvolve emotion, context and social expectations. As an example of emotional differences, if I were to do a mediainterview in the US and became visibly angry at a reporter’s question, Iwould be seen as unstable.By contrast, in the Middle East, whenpeople are talking about a heated issue, they tend to display powerfulfeelings — those who stay cool and calm while discussing such a problemmay be viewed as untrustworthy. Another big cultural difference revolves round the level of“context” provided in a conversation.As an American,I am what isknown as a low-context communicator (who communicates informationin a direct manner that relies mainly on words rather than contextualelements such as tones and body language), so if I want somethingdone, I say so frankly.In high-context cultures, as in Asia, peoplemay do the opposite.You have to pick up on body language, tones, andother contextual cues to realize that your colleague who just said yes to youhas actually communicated that she does not agree to your plan.语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。作者结合自身经历,讲述了不同文化之间的差异给人际沟通带来的影响。语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。作者结合自身经历,讲述了不同文化之间的差异给人际沟通带来的影响。1.

The word’s definition, when we read it, would seem to be:without without regard.However, Merriam-Webster defines“irregardless” as “nonstandard” but meaning the same as“regardless”.According to Merriam-Webster, “Many people find‘irregardless’ to be a ridiculous word, as the ir-prefix usually indicatesnegative meaning; however, in this case, it appears to make themeaning of ‘regardless’ stronger.” “It’s not a real word.I don’t care what the dictionary says,”responds author Michelle Ray, who teaches English in Silver Spring,Maryland.And she says she’s still planning to mark “irregardless” asincorrect on her students’ work. An American newspaper The Baltimore Sun published the word ineditor John McIntyre’s commentary on Saturday,“‘Irregardless’ istoo a word; you just don’t understand dictionaries.People get upsetabout the dictionary because they think it is some sort of the officialdocument.But actually, it’s not.It’s just lexicographers (词典编纂者) identifying words that people use and trying to find out how they arespelt, how they are pronounced, what meanings they have and wherethey came from.” “The dictionary’s recognition doesn’t enrol a word as correct inthe English language,” McIntyre says.“It just says this is a word that alot of people use in English.And here’s what we know about it.” Soit’s a word, but its use is still discouraged in formal writing.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了“irregardless”被收录进了《韦氏词典》,引起了广泛的争议,还介绍了这一单词被使用的历史以及人们对此的不同看法。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了“irregardless”被收录进了《韦氏词典》,引起了广泛的争议,还介绍了这一单词被使用的历史以及人们对此的不同看法。5.

What is McIntyre’s attitude to the appearance of “irregardless” inMerriam-Webster Dictionary?( )A. Conservative. B. Favourable.C. Indifferent. D. Ambiguous.解析: 观点态度题。根据第四段中的“Irregardless” is too aword; you just don’t understand dictionaries.可知,麦金太尔认为“irregardless”的确是一个单词,只是我们对词典的理解不够。由此可知,麦金太尔对《韦氏词典》中“irregardless”的出现持支持态度。7. What can we learn from the passage?( )A. The dictionary’s staff rarely record the English language.B. Michelle Ray thinks the use of “irregardless” formal but incorrect.C. People are still not encouraged to use “irregardless” in formalwriting.D. “Irregardless” had been in widespread and near-constant use before1795.解析: 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的So it’s a word, but itsuse is still discouraged in formal writing.可知,irregardless虽然是一个单词,但不鼓励人们在正式的写作中使用它。8. What can be the best title for the passage?( )A. “Irregardless” Is Frequently Used in Formal WritingB. “Irregardless” Shouldn’t Be Included in the DictionaryC. Experts Can’t Agree on the Meaning of “Irregardless”D. Regardless of What You Think, “Irregardless” Is a Word解析: 标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了“irregardless”被收录进了《韦氏词典》,引起了广泛的争议,还介绍了这一单词被使用的历史以及人们对此的不同看法。因此,D项(不管你怎么想,“irregardless”是一个单词)是本文最佳标题。Ⅱ.阅读七选五 There are mental health benefits to having friends who knew youbefore you became a successful adult.9.( ) They know whenyou’re in high spirits and when you’re tired out.Maybe your friendencouraged you to do something you didn’t dare to do.Maybe youhelped your friend learn how to drive.These memories probably form ahuge part of who you are.

Well, all the words except “the” and“is” are borrowed from other languages![1]This comes as no surprise①, given② that English has borrowed words from more than 300 differentlanguages, including Latin, Greek, French and Chinese.However,English is not alone in borrowing words from other languages—borrowedwords can be found in almost all languages. For example, English wordsthat are borrowed into the Chinese language include “bacon③”,“tank④” and “golf⑤”. Word borrowing comes about⑥ when two cultures with differentlanguages interact⑦.This tends to happen when there is no suitable wordfor an object or idea in the native tongue⑧. [2]This phenomenon⑨ hasbeen occurring for thousands of years. In the current age of globalization⑩, when communications technology brings different cultures closertogether, words are even more likely to be borrowed straight from thesource language at a faster pace than ever before, especially those relatedto technological developments, such as “email” and “Internet”. [1]句中given that用作连词,引导状语从句,意为“考虑到,鉴于”。 [2]本句的时态为现在完成进行时。基本结构是“主语+have/has+been+doing ...”,表示谓语动词所叙述的动作行为由过去开始,一直持续到说话之时且有可能还会继续。【读文清障】①come as no surprise 不足为奇②given prep.考虑到,鉴于 (后接名词或that从句)③bacon n.咸猪肉,熏猪肉④tank n.坦克;(贮放液体或气体的)罐⑤golf n.高尔夫球运动⑥come about 产生,发生⑦interact v.互动;相互作用;交流interaction n.交流;相互影响⑧native tongue母语⑨phenomenon n.现象⑩globalization n.全球化 Though borrowing words has become faster, the process is stillcomplex, and it takes time before new words are integrated intoeveryday speech. At first, the borrowed word is only used by bilingual speakers.[3]It then spreads to people who do not know the originallanguage, and they will change the pronunciation to fit the way theyspeak, almost unknowingly .[4]An example of this is the word “kungfu ”, which refers to Chinese martial arts. This word comes fromChinese gongfu. Over time, the sounds that are difficult to pronounce have been replaced with more familiar ones.[5]The longer a borrowed word has been in use, the more it sounds and even looks like the native language. Borrowed words are an outcome of language development that canhardly be avoided, but some language communities oppose adoptingwords from other cultures. There are countries that make interventions to keep their native language pure in order to defend their identity. TheFrench specifically have an official organization that creates new words inorder to avoid borrowed words.[6]Some languages have an extremelysmall number of speakers, such as the Native American Navajolanguage, used only by the members of the tribe .Under thiscircumstance, it becomes a matter of survival for the native language toreject outside influences. [3]本句是and连接的并列句。前一个分句中含有who引导的定语从句,修饰先行词people;后一个分句中动词不定式短语to fit ... 作目的状语;定语从句they speak修饰先行词way。 [4]which引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词kung fu。 [5]本句为“the+比较级 ..., the+比较级 ...”结构,意为“越……,就越……”。 [6]过去分词短语used only by ...作后置定语,修饰名词theNative American Navajo language。 integrate vt.& vi. (使)合并;(使)加入 bilingual adj.会说两种语言的;用两种语言(写)的 unknowingly adv.未意识到地,不知不觉地,无意中 kung fu n.功夫 refer to 指的是 oppose vt.反对,抵制;与……对垒 intervention n.干涉行为,干预intervene vi.干预,介入 pure adj.纯净的;完全的 tribe n.部落 reject vt.拒绝接受,不予考虑;不录用;排斥,排异rejection n.拒绝接受(相信……);否决 [7]While some communities are pessimistic about the exchangebetween languages, there are also other communities that readilywelcome borrowed words.English, especially, is based on a mix ofLatin, Greek and Germanic languages. The English-speakingcommunity does not hesitate about absorbing foreign words into its dailyvocabulary.In fact, there have never been any formal academic restrictions on newborrowed words.[8]Borrowing words allows the language to continue todevelop, enabling the community to have a more efficient languagewhich makes it possible for them to share their experiences with new-found ease.[9]It is also through those words that novel ideas are spreadand different beliefs are exchanged more conveniently and quickly. According to the linguist Edward Sapir, “It would be difficult topoint to a completely isolated language ...” For better or for worse ,the tendency to borrow words has never gone out of style .[10] Themore international and globalized the world becomes, the more languagecharacteristics will be shared between nations and cultures. [7]While引导让步状语从句,意为“尽管,虽然”;that引导定语从句,修饰先行词communities。 [8]动词-ing短语enabling the ...作结果状语,表示自然而然的结果。 [9]本句为强调句,句式结构为It is ...that ...,用来强调介词短语through those words。 [10]本句为“the+比较级 ..., the+比较级 ...”结构。 pessimistic adj.悲观的,悲观主义的be pessimistic about 对……感到悲观 be based on以……为基础/根据 Germanic adj.日耳曼语的;德国的 restriction n.限制,约束 novel adj.新的,新颖的,新奇的 linguist n.语言学家;通晓数国语言的人 isolated adj.孤立的;单独的;偏远的 for better or for worse 不管是好是坏,不管结果如何 tendency n.趋势,趋向;倾向,偏好 go out of style过时【参考译文】外来词 “The restaurant’s fried tofu is delicious.(这家餐厅的炸豆腐真美味。)”这句话有什么特别之处吗?好吧,除了“the ”和“is”之外,所有的单词都是从其他语言中借来的!这并不奇怪,因为英语已从 300 多种不同的语言中借用了词汇,包括拉丁语、希腊语、法语和汉语。然而,英语并不是唯一一种从其他语言引入外来词的语言——几乎所有语言中都可以找到外来词。例如,被借用到汉语中的英语词汇包括“培根 (bacon)”“坦克 (tank)”和“高尔夫 (golf)”。 当不同语言的两种文化相互交流时,外来词就产生了。这种情况往往发生在当母语中没有合适的词来表达某个物体或某种想法时。这一现象已经延续数千年。在如今的全球化时代中,当通信技术使得不同文化更加紧密地联系在一起时,词汇甚至更有可能会以前所未有的速度直接从原语言中被借用,特别是那些与技术发展相关的词汇,如“电子邮件 (email)”和“互联网 (Internet)”。 虽然借词已变得更快,但是过程仍然复杂,新词需要一段时间才能融入日常用语中。起初,外来词只被双语者所使用,然后这个词会传播到不懂原语言的人那里,并且他们会在几乎不知不觉中改变外来词的发音,使之适应自己的语言习惯。这一过程的一个例子就是“功夫 (kung fu)”这个词,它指的是中国武术。这个词来源于汉语词汇“功夫 (gongfu)”。随着时间的推移,难以发音的部分被更为熟悉的发音所取代了。一个外来词使用的时间越长,它听起来甚至看起来就越像本土语言。 虽然外来词是语言发展几乎难以避免的结果,但是一些语言群体反对从其他文化中吸收词汇。有些国家为了捍卫自己的身份,对外来词采取干预措施以保持自己母语的纯正。法国人专门有一个创造新词的官方组织,以避免外来词。有些语言的使用者数量非常少,例如美洲印第安人的纳瓦霍语,只有这个部落的成员使用。在这种情况下,拒绝外来影响关系着母语的生存问题。 尽管有些群体对语言之间的互借感到悲观,但是也有其他群体对外来词持欣然欢迎的态度。尤其是英语,它是基于拉丁语、希腊语和日耳曼语的混合体。英语群体毫不犹豫地将外语词汇吸收到自己的日常词汇中。事实上,他们对新的外来词从来没有任何正式的学术限制。借用外来词使英语得以继续发展,使得其群体拥有一种更为有效的语言,让他们能够以新发现的轻松状态分享他们的经历。也正是通过那些词,新思想的传播、不同观点的交流得以更加便捷。 语言学家爱德华·萨丕尔认为:“很难指出一种完全孤立的语言……”。不管是好是坏,借用外来词的趋势从未过时。世界越是变得国际化和全球化,不同民族和文化之间就会共享更多语言特征。文本透析·剖语篇助力语篇理解2第一步:析架构,理文本脉络Read the passage quickly andfill in the blanks with suitablewords.第二步:精读文,达明察秋毫Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer.1.

It may seem like they have consciously (有意识地) copied you, but it is much more likely that it is the chameleon(变色龙) effect at play. The chameleon effect is the unconscious imitation of anotherperson’s gestures or behaviour.Just as a chameleon attempts to matchany environment’s colours, people acquire the behaviour of others tobring them closer together and help make their interactions smooth. The chameleon effect was confirmed in an experiment bypsychologists John Bargh and Tanya Chartrand in 1999.The first part oftheir experiment included 78 people, who each spoke with anexperimenter.During the test, Bargh and Chartrand studied whetherparticipants would copy the actions of someone they hadn’t met before,like moving the foot and touching the face.The second part measured theimpact that copying someone has on the person being imitated. In the first stage, participants increased their face touching by 20%and their foot movement by 50% while in conversation about a photographwith the experimenter.The individuals weren’t aware of what they werebeing studied for, and the photograph was used to catch their attention toensure unconscious acts.The second stage involved half of the participantsbeing copied, and then rating the likeability of the experimenter.Theresults showed that those who were imitated scored the experimenterhigher.It has shown that when someone copies our behaviour, wedevelop more positive feelings about them.These interactions could be aperson unconsciously willing to be liked, and forming a moment ofconnection. The main reasons behind humans’ imitation arepositive.However, when people carry this chameleon effect to theextreme, they can lose their sense of self.Those who change their entirepersonalities in different groups often go undetected.But more commonsigns of the chameleon effect are easier to notice.Next time you are in asocial gathering, take a look around and you might just see somechameleons for yourself.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项关于变色龙效应的研究,告诉我们人们通过习得他人的行为来拉近彼此之间的距离。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项关于变色龙效应的研究,告诉我们人们通过习得他人的行为来拉近彼此之间的距离。1.

Just these two words can carry a lot ofinformation. [1]They could be interpreted as② a welcoming greeting froma close friend, especially if accompanied by a gentle③ smile.[2]Whenspoken by a stranger, they can function as a means of attracting yourattention. [3]Much of what we communicate is dependent④ not only onthe words we use, but also on how we use them. So, let’s look a littledeeper into the topic of communication. [1]该句为主从复合句,主句中的主语They 指代上文提及的thesetwo words;从句是if引导的条件状语从句,if后面省略了they are,完整句子为especially if they are accompanied by a gentle smile。 [2]When spoken by a stranger是When引导的时间状语从句的省略,When后面省略了they are。 [3]句中what引导主语从句,作介词of的宾语;not only ...butalso ...连接两个并列的成分。how引导宾语从句。第一个we use为省略了关系代词that或which的定语从句,修饰先行词words。【读文清障】①react vi.(对……)作出反应;有不良反应,过敏;起化学反应②be interpreted as 被理解为……③gentle adj.温柔的;温和的;柔和的④dependent adj.取决于;依赖的,依靠的be dependent on 取决于;依赖,依靠 Communication is the process of exchanging information between asender and a receiver.The sender encodes⑤ a message and sends it face toface, or through video, telephone, mail⑥ or social media. Thismessage is then received and decoded⑦ by the receiver.[4]In response⑧, the receiver sends an encoded message back, which is referred to as⑨ feedback⑩.This feedback is decoded by the original sender and theentire cycle repeats itself until they have finished communicating. This communication process can be challenging but, with practiceand patience, you can become a highly competent communicator.[5]To accomplish this, you need to know with whom you arecommunicating.What is their age or position? What is their relationshipwith you? What expectations and cultural backgrounds do they have?[6]Once you have obtained this information, you can use it todetermine how best to communicate with them.[7]Depending on whether you are communicating with a stranger, friend, family memberor co-worker, you will need to decide which communication channel bestsuits the situation.Furthermore, you will need to determine the appropriate style to use and how complex your choice of words should be. For example, if you are a business person negotiating with a large enterprise about a deal, you should do it face to face, using formal language in a straightforward manner. [4]句中which引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词encodedmessage。 [5]动词不定式短语To accomplish this作目的状语;whom引导宾语从句,作介词with的宾语。 [6]Once引导状语从句,意为“一旦”;how best tocommunicate with them作动词不定式to determine的宾语。 [7]动词-ing短语Depending on ...作状语,Depending on后接一个whether引导的宾语从句;which引导宾语从句,作动词decide的宾语。 Your body language is equally important, since it reveals a lot aboutyour thoughts and attitudes.Make sure it clearly supports the messageyou want to deliver.[8] A smile shows you are attentive to the issuesbeing discussed, while looking away with your arms folded canindicate disinterest and create distrust or friction .[9]Additionally, youshould not ignore the other person’s body language, which will giveyou clues as to whether the conversation is going well or not. When younotice a change in the other person’s body language, you should adjusthow you are communicating accordingly.If someone looks at you with a confused expression, this could indicatethat they have not completely understood your point. Then you will needto clarify your message before moving on. [8]本句整体上是并列连词while连接的并列句,while意为“然而”。前一个分句中的宾语从句you are attentive to the issues beingdiscussed省略了引导词that;后一个分句中动词-ing短语looking awaywith your arms folded作主语。 [9]which引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词body language;whether the conversation is going well or not作as to的宾语。⑤encode vt.把……编码;把……译成电码(或密码)⑥mail n.电子邮件;邮政;邮件⑦decode vt.解(码),破译(尤指密码)⑧in response作为回应,作为回答⑨be referred to as 被称作,被称为⑩feedback n.反馈的意见(或信息) competent adj.足以胜任的,有能力的,称职的 obtain vt.获得,赢得 depend on 取决于;依靠,依赖 suit vt.满足需要;相配,合身n.套装,西装,西服 negotiate vi.& vt.谈判;商定,达成(协议) enterprise n.公司,企业;规划,事业 straightforward adj.坦诚的;简单的in a straightforward manner 以直截了当的方式 make sure确保,务必 attentive adj.细心的;注意的;留心的 fold vt.折叠,对折;包,裹n.褶,褶层,折叠部分 friction n.争执;摩擦;摩擦力 as to 关于,至于 clarify vt.使更清晰易懂,阐明 [10]While being knowledgeable about body language is vital, thevalue of empathy should not be understated .

A year earlier, I left India for the United Kingdom to pursue myresearch career.At work, I shied away from engaging in discussions orputting forward my opinions.I was afraid my co-workers would realizehow weak I really felt.Some mornings, just stepping out of my room andgoing into the lab seemed a tough task. Socializing didn’t help, as I constantly feared committing socialmistakes.I longed for new experiences, but my insecurities stymied (妨碍) me.I started to keep more and more to myself.That began to changeafter a quiet breakdown in the lab prompted (促使) me to contact theuniversity’s mental health services.The consultant suggested I attend anearby concert by a famous singer from my home country.I couldn’tmiss it.So, there I was in the packed concert hall, surrounded bystrangers — all of us clapping and singing the choruses of the familiarsongs.It was a beautiful night, and it proved to be a turning point. My growing self-confidence carried over into my work, where Istarted to speak up and put forward my opinions.I offered to help co-workers design and troubleshoot experiments.I began to ask questionsduring departmental meetings.I finally felt like an active member of thegroup. So, when that conference came around, I felt comfortableregistering to attend on my own — and I’m so glad I did.Not only did Imeet the speakers, but I also introduced myself to other attendees.Theencounters inspired me to critically evaluate my own professionalinterests.语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在异国如何克服不自信,适应新生活的故事。语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在异国如何克服不自信,适应新生活的故事。1.

It has been suggested that two-thirds of our communication isnonverbal.Positive body language in a classroom setting has the ability tomotivate, inspire and engage.It can not only give you the confidence youneed to teach but can also inform your students that you actually knowwhat you’re talking about.It can even make your students feel safe andconfident enough to participate in the lessons more frequently. Most leadership positions encourage body language that shows powerand confidence.Signals include standing tall, gesturing only from thewaist up, keeping head straight and forward, and talking while pointingto others, which are obvious ways to exercise control.But whenteaching, the nonverbal signals need to show a different type ofleader.These signals convey warmth and understanding, reminding yourstudents that you are approachable and there to help them grow.For example, fix your eyes on one student for about 15-30 secondsbefore changing to another student, which is one of the best ways to keepstudents’ focus.Nod your head.Give a thumbs up — maybe two! Showthem they are on the right path and they will be more confident incontinuing down it. The importance of body language in teaching can never beignored.It’s desirable that you should advocate using body language inteaching and pay attention to the use of rules and skills.You should useright, natural and clear body language.It’s crucial that you create agood classroom atmosphere, inspire students’ imagination and graspstudents’ mood.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了肢体语言在教学中的重要性。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了肢体语言在教学中的重要性。5.

About 27 per cent of people aged 60 or older live alone in the USA,according to the Pew Research Center.Living alone has been linked to anumber of unfavourable health outcomes such as heart disease,depression, and poor overall biological health.So, researchers believedit important to identify which factors may or may not help reduce thenegative effects of living alone. The project focused on neighbourhood cohesion (凝聚力) amongChinese Americans living in the greater Chicago area.Study authorsinvestigated if the perceptions of trust and connection among neighbourshad an impact on the death risk among that population.Subjects livingalone, and reporting minimal interactions or connections with theirneighbours, had a 48.5 per cent increased risk of death in comparison tothose living with other people.Meanwhile, people who lived alone andreported strong cohesion with their neighbourhood displayed death risksvery similar to those living with others. Establishing a clearer understanding of how different types ofneighbourhoods may influence locals’ health outcomes can help in thecreation of new social policies and public health initiatives aimed atpromoting better, more inclusive neighbourhood environments. “Our findings show the particular challenges faced by older adultswho live alone in communities with little interaction or connection,”concludes Yanping Jiang, author of the study.“Enhancingneighbourhood cohesion may be a promising way to reduce early death forolder adults who live alone.” Future studies should focus on additional factors involved inneighbourhoods and how they influence the health of older adults.On anindividual level, we all can do our part.Consider being just a littlefriendlier to your neighbours, especially those who live alone.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了罗格斯大学的新发现——与邻居建立联系有益于健康。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了罗格斯大学的新发现——与邻居建立联系有益于健康。9.

Feeling fear is fun and exciting. Many people scare themselves onpurpose.13.( ) When you step outside your comfort zone, it is fear that makes youfeel alive, which is fun and exciting.The excitement generated can alsohelp reduce depression by increasing adrenaline (肾上腺素), which inturn increases excitement and glucose (changed into energy).14.( ) A dose of fear is an “eraser” for the mind. 15.( ) Being afraid of something can alert (提醒) you toan area of your life that is limiting you.For instance, if you’re afraid offlying but face the fear and gather up the courage to step on an airplane,you can travel the world.Adding to your experiences means that you’llcreate a varied life.You’ll also have fewer regrets. Fear gives you clarity on what’s really important in life. Howoften have you said to yourself, “When I have more time, I’ll spendit with my family, pursue my passion, eat healthier or exercisemore?” Fear makes you realize that “now” is the only time you haveto achieve and follow through what is most important.16.( )The sweet spot of fear Some say where fear meets courage is the sweet spot in whichmountains get scaled and rivers are run.17.( ) We should all embrace (欣然接受) our fear.Not the big fears thatare life-threatening but the helpful fears that come in small doses.A. Fear helps you succeed.B. “Later” is never guaranteed.C. Fear allows you to live life to the fullest.D. They watch scary movies, ride roller coasters or go skydiving.E. And every time you come through a challenge, you feel empowered.F. Most of all, fear can be the birthplace of change, creativity andinnovation.G. Actually, it’s nearly impossible to be thinking of your worries whenyou’re experiencing fear.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。适度恐惧是有好处的。13. D 根据空前一句可知,许多人专门吓唬自己。故D项(他们看恐怖电影,坐过山车或跳伞)符合语境,D项中的They指代前一句的Many people。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。适度恐惧是有好处的。14. G 根据设空处后一句可知,设空处和人的心理活动有关,故G项(实际上,当你经历恐惧时,几乎不可能想到你的担忧)符合语境,G项中的impossible to be thinking of your worries与后一句中的“eraser” for the mind相呼应。15. C 设空处所在段主要讲了如果人挑战内心的恐惧,做一些让自己害怕的事情,会丰富自己的经历,从而让自己的人生少一些遗憾,故C项(恐惧让你活得充实)符合语境。16. B 根据设空处前一句可知,恐惧会让你意识到什么是重要的,并顿悟抓住“现在”时刻的意义,故B项[“以后”永远无法保证(那些重要的人和事能被关心和完成)]符合语境,B项中的Later和前一句中的now相呼应。17. F 最后两段总结全文。设空处与前一句在语义上构成递进关系。有人说恐惧与勇气相遇的地方,是最美好的地方。故F项(最重要的是,恐惧可能是变革、创造力和创新的发源地)符合语境。(共96张PPT)单元质量检测(二) Understanding each other(满分150分,时间120分钟)第一部分 听力(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5分)听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后,你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。1.

Like you, I also had a noise problem with a neighbour.He’d watchloud movies every night, sometimes until 3 in the morning.One night, Idecided I’d had enough of the noise, so I went to my neighbour’sapartment and we argued.However, that only made him turn his TV upeven louder every night after that. A week or so later, I saw my neighbour outside.Even though we’dlived next to each other for a long time, the first time we’d spoken waswhen we had our argument. So, I chatted with him and got to know him better—I also made ajoke about how I liked his taste in movies. That night, the noise problem stopped.It seemed that all I had to dowas get my neighbour to see me as a friend, not an enemy. So, my advice to you is to be calm and patient with your neighbour. One day, go over and ask if you can come in for a talk.If youmention that their noise is affecting your studies, they should soonchange their mind. At the same time, however, not everyone is comfortable withfacing people this way.If you’re one of those people, write a polite andfriendly letter instead, explaining your problem to your neighbour. Many people we know can make us angry, but usually, the bestway to win someone over is through kindness.第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。ABest Online Tutoring (辅导) Jobs for College StudentsCAMBLY Cambly provides access to virtual English tutors.As a Cambly tutor,you get paid to have conversations with students and to instruct from pre-made Cambly lesson plans.And, one of the best parts about Cambly isthat the company doesn’t require any prior teaching experience.Plus,Cambly doesn’t have minimum or maximum hours, making this a goodoption if you only have a couple of hours a week to tutor.

In my freshman year, I quickly found out my English was not asgood as I’d assumed.Most of my flatmates were born and raised inScotland, and I constantly found myself having to ask them to repeatthemselves.Their Scottish accents didn’t help and I was mispronouncingnames and places all the time. Then I had to adjust to a new social life.I was surprised by thecampus culture in the UK — in the Netherlands, most universities don’thave one main campus where you can attend university, as well as liveand exercise all in the same place.Also, Dutch universities typically offerfewer societies, so students take part in activities in the community ortown where they live.But here, you never have to leave campus if youdon’t want to.I had to get used to everyone being so close to each otherall the time. But I’ve found lots of pleasant surprises in the UK too — and sohave many other international students I know.Eimear McCarthy,studying sport psychology in Stirling, and originally from Ireland, saidshe was taken aback by how smartly male students dress in Stirlingcompared to her friends at home.However, on the downside, she foundthat Scottish shops don’t sell her favourite Irish corn snack.“The UKdoesn’t have Meanies, which is just horrible,” she toldme.“Meanies are my life.” Culture shock can knock your confidence in the beginning.Butyou’re not alone in taking time to adapt, and soon you start to get usedto all the differences.Looking back, most of the shocks I experiencedmade good stories to tell my friends.语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者出国留学时经历的文化冲击。语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者出国留学时经历的文化冲击。24. Which of the following best explains “caught me off balance”underlined in Paragraph 1?( )A. Taught me a lesson. B. Made me different.C. Surprised me. D. Frightened me.解析: 词义猜测题。根据第一段第二句可知,作者没想到苏格兰的学生生活与荷兰的学生生活如此不同。且画线部分后一句说明作者经历了轻微的文化冲击。由此可推知,在来到斯特灵大学后,有一些小事让作者“感到惊讶”。25. What did the author realise in her first year in the UK?( )A.

What was expressed in Eimear McCarthy’s words?( )A. Fear. B. Disappointment.C. Confusion. D. Envy.解析: 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句可知,EimearMcCarthy说:“英国不卖Meanies,这一点真的太糟糕了。Meanies对我太重要了。”由此可推知,Eimear McCarthy的话语中充满了失望。C Exams are disturbing, especially for those already of an anxiouscharacter.The silence of the hall; the watchful eye of the monitor; thesmug (自命不凡的) expression of the person who has finished 15minutes early.It, therefore, seems hardly surprising that those whoworry about taking tests do worse than those who do not.Scientist MariaTheobald theorised that if this were true, then those with high levels ofanxiety would perform worse in a real exam than in a mock exam (模拟考试) or during online practice sessions. So she worked with 309 students who were preparing for their finalexam.During the 100 days before the exam, all her volunteers used adigital-learning platform which presented them with old exam questionsand logged their performance.They also sat a mock exam 40 days beforethe real thing.To assess their levels of anxiety, they were asked, everyday for 40 days in the run-up to the real exam and also on the day of thatexam, to respond on a five-point scale (五分制) to statements like,“I feel nervous.” What Dr Theobald found was not what she expected.Anxiety on theday of the test did not predict exam performance at all.What did predict itwas the level of knowledge a student displayed in the mock exam and theearlier digital-learning activities.Those who performed well in these alsodid well in the real thing, regardless of how anxious they were on theday.What actually restricted students was anxiety during the weeks beforethe exam took place.The greater a student’s anxiety in those days, thelower his or her knowledge gain was, leaving that student with lessmaterial to reproduce during the exam. Dr Theobald notes that test anxiety is at its worst when students havelow expectations of success and meanwhile know that passing the exam isextremely important.To reduce this anxiety, she proposes a twofoldstrategy for students as they revise.First, they can raise their belief intheir abilities by reminding themselves of how much they know.Second,they can reduce the significance of the test by reminding themselves that,while it is important, it is not a life-or-death situation.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。研究表明考场上带来的压力不会影响学生的考试成绩,反而是考试准备阶段的紧张心理会影响考试。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。研究表明考场上带来的压力不会影响学生的考试成绩,反而是考试准备阶段的紧张心理会影响考试结果。28. Why did Dr Theobald conduct the research?( )A. To prove general ideas about anxiety wrong.B. To find ways to reduce students’ exam anxiety.C. To find out what really contributes to students’ anxiety.D. To see if pressure in the exam hall influences exam results.解析: 推理判断题。根据第一段中的Scientist Maria Theobaldtheorised that if this were true ...可知,Maria Theobald做研究是为了了解考试当天焦虑是否会影响考试成绩。29. What did participants do during Dr Theobald’s research?( )A. They took part in 40 mock exams.B. They reported their learning activities.C. They had their psychological state assessed.D. They used a learning tool to reduce their anxiety.解析: 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知,参与研究的学生们需要接受心理状态方面的评估。30. What did Dr Theobald’s research find?( )A. Pressure drives students to study hard.B. Students feel more pressure during real exams.C. Anxiety on the exam day makes students perform poorly.D. Students’ performance in mock exams can predict real exam results.解析: 细节理解题。根据第三段第二、三句可知,通过学生在模拟考试中的表现可以预测他们在正式考试中的表现。31. What is a way to reduce pre-test anxiety according to Dr Theobald?( )A. Being more confident in themselves.B. Having lower expectations of themselves.C. Treating exams as something unimportant.D. Taking more mock exams before the real one.解析: 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的First, they canraise their belief in their abilities by reminding themselves ofhow much they know.可知,Dr Theobald认为对自己有信心可以减轻考前焦虑。D With energy prices on the rise, people up and down the country arelooking for ways to keep their usage as low as possible, and in manycases changing how they carry out everyday tasks.This of course includeswashing up, with a number of us keen to cut back on how much hotwater we use. With this in mind, economical shoppers have applauded a newwashing-up liquid formula (配方) released by Fairy, which allowsyou to wash your dirty dishes in cold water.The label reads,“New.Brilliant in cold.Save energy”, and some believe it could savethem £100 a year in heating bills. Shoppers can buy the new version of Fairy’s cold water washing-upliquid in Wilko stores, with prices starting at £2.50.Some shoppersweren’t too sure about washing their plates in cold water, which theyfeared wouldn’t be too comfortable, while others felt saddened thatsuch measures were needed in the first place.A number of customershowever were keen to give it a try. “I have two young babies, so I often forget to wash up leaving thewater to go cold,” commented Jane Evans, a 35-year-old housewife. Fairy isn’t only making changes in the formula, it has also had thebiggest design change in its 62-year history with the bottle turned “upsidedown” for the first time.The launch of the new upside-down bottle comesas research reveals the average Briton spends a total of 60 hours a yearwashing up 7,300 items.The efficiently redesigned bottle means it’smuch easier to get the last drop of washing-up liquid out of the bottle,while its anti-leak technology means messy caps are a thing of the past. “By combining a highly effective new formula with usefulpackaging improvements, we want to make life easier for consumers bycreating superior and innovative products,” a Fairy spokesperson said.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。随着能源价格的上涨,人们都在寻找尽可能降低能源使用量的方法,于是一家公司推出了新的洗洁精配方。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。随着能源价格的上涨,人们都在寻找尽可能降低能源使用量的方法,于是一家公司推出了新的洗洁精配方。32.

Every day, Aunt Lucia and I get up before dawn to make the dough(生面团).Next, we bake bread and cakes.Then, while I helpcustomers, Lucia makes cupcakes and cookies for sale in theafternoon.Whenever the phone rings, she races from the back room toanswer the call.She’s always worried that it might be bad news, so shewants to be the first to hear it.After dinner, Aunt Lucia invitesneighbours over to listen to the radio.I always listen closely for any newsabout the war. I remember how intently my parents read reports about the war,which I rarely understood.They often whispered to one another, and I’dshout out something like, “Speak up! I can’t hear you!” They’dfrown (皱眉) and leave me alone to talk in private. One night, they came into the living room and turned off theradio.At first I was angry, but they had serious expressions on theirfaces.“The military will be looking for new recruits (新兵).I knowsomething about boats and ship engines, so I intend to join the army,”Dad said.

Charles Ⅴ was the king of Spain from 1516 to 1556.But his power wentfar beyond Spain.As the “Holy Roman Emperor”, Charles Ⅴcontrolled lands across Europe.In spite of his great power, he had tomanage many threats. Three years before the letter was written, Charles Ⅴ had made apeace deal with King Francis Ⅰ of France.But there was still a lot ofinformation he didn’t want to share with the king of France. At the time, the only way to communicate across long distances wasto send letters.But letters weren’t secure.So Charles Ⅴ used acomplicated code to send information that needed to be kept secret. Cecile Pierrot is a cryptographer — an expert in codes.She and ateam of other cryptographers set out to figure out what the letter said.Thecode was harder to crack than Ms Pierrot had expected.But as theresearchers studied the three-page letter, they began to notice somepatterns. Some symbols stood for just one letter.Others stood for several letterscombined.And a few of the symbols stood for whole words.To makethings more difficult, some symbols meant nothing at all and were onlyincluded to make the code harder to crack. After three years of efforts, the experts finally cracked the code.Theteam says the decoded letter tells them a lot about tensions in Europe at thetime.The discovery opens a door to even more history.There are hundredsof similar letters all over Europe.Now that the code is broken, historianswill have a much easier time learning what Charles Ⅴ was thinking aboutduring his time as a leader.语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。1547年,西班牙国王给他驻法国的大使发了一封密信。如今,经过近500年的时间,研究人员终于破解了密码,并读懂了这封信。语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。1547年,西班牙国王给他驻法国的大使发了一封密信。如今,经过近500年的时间,研究人员终于破解了密码,并读懂了这封信。4.

The Affinia Hotel Collection is improving service in its five hotels inNew York City and one each in Chicago and Washington D. C. Everyonefrom housekeeping to management will communicate with guests based onbody language. A body language expert trained employees on what cues (信号) tolook for.A guest who makes eye contact while walking down the hall,for example, may be open to conversation.A businessman frequentlytouching an ear is probably nervous and may be interested in a therapeuticpillow (理疗枕头). “So many companies, when they talk about service, theyprogram it to how many rings till you answer the phone,” says JohnMoser, marketing officer for Affinia.“That doesn’t sound veryreasonable.Let’s give employees some tools they can use to find outwhat’s the right way to talk with somebody at a particular time.” Patti Wood, a body language expert who carried out the Affiniatraining, says she has never seen such training given to all hotelemployees.“All of the training is to make sure every single guest istreated as special,” she says. Staff questions about a guest’s day won’t disappear, Mosersays.But, he says, small talk isn’t always enough to get a reading of aguest’s needs.“You can’t always tell from the first sentence whethersomeone is happy or unhappy,” he says.“Measuring some of thethings they’re showing with the way they’re talking to you, can helpour employees provide service that’s more personal for them.”语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了为了提供更好的服务,Affinia连锁酒店培训员工识别客人的肢体语言。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了为了提供更好的服务,Affinia连锁酒店培训员工识别客人的肢体语言。8.

Well-known sociologist Erving Goffman developed the concept of“civil inattention” in his book Behavior in Public Places.Far fromignoring those around us, Goffman proved that what we’re actuallydoing is pretending to be unaware of what others are doing around us,therefore providing them a sense of privacy, as they do the same forus.Goffman proved in his research that civil inattention typically involvesat first a mirror form of social interaction, like very brief eye contact,the exchange of head nods, or weak smiles.Following that, both partiesthen typically move their eyes from the other party. Goffman theorized that what we achieve, socially speaking, withthis kind of interaction, is mutual (相互的) recognition that the otherpresent causes no threat to our security, and we both agree, tacitly (默契地), to let the other alone to do as they please.When we provide civilinattention to others, we effectively approve their behavior.Sometimes,we use civil inattention to save face when we’ve done something we feelembarrassed by, or to help manage the embarrassment that another mightfeel if we witness them trip, or drop something. Civil inattention is thus not a problem, but an important part ofmaintaining social order in public.We expect it from others and see it asnormal behavior.We may feel threatened by someone who doesn’t give itto us.This is why women feel threatened by those who catcall (发嘘声)to them, and why for some men, simply being stared at by another isenough to cause a physical fight.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。城市中陌生人不愿意在公众场合进行过多交谈,社会学家Erving Goffman提出了“礼貌性疏忽”这一概念,认为这在社交互动生活中有着积极的影响。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。城市中陌生人不愿意在公众场合进行过多交谈,社会学家Erving Goffman提出了“礼貌性疏忽”这一概念,认为这在社交互动生活中有着积极的影响。12. How does the author begin this text?( )A. By giving people a warning.B. By describing a way of socializing.C. By comparing some people’s feelings.D. By giving a problem with technology.解析: 推理判断题。文章第一段前两句描述了一种社交方式:陌生人在城市公共场所不说话。“我们”貌似越来越沉迷于移动设备。然后末句阐述了社会学家对此的看法。由此推断,第一段通过描述一种社交方式来开始叙述。13. What does the underlined phrase “oblivious to” in Paragraph 1 mostprobably mean?( )A. Tired of. B. Unsure about.C. Unaware of. D. Curious about.解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词上文They feel sorry about theway we seem to increasingly get lost in mobile devices可知,“我们”貌似越来越沉迷于移动设备,对于身边发生的事情是不关注的。oblivious to与unaware of为近义词,表示“对……是无意识的”。14. What do we actually mean when we look away from a stranger,according to Goffman?( )A. We are ignoring him on a rude basis.B. We are showing our respect for others’ privacy.C. We are worrying that we could lose belongings.D. We are protecting ourselves from physical attacks.解析: 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知,当我们把目光从陌生人身上移开时,我们实际上是在表达对他人隐私的尊重。15. What can be learned from the text about civil inattention?( )A. Civil inattention has positive effects on social interaction.B. Civil inattention helps save face when we’ve done wrong to others.C. Civil inattention isn’t linked to social interaction according toGoffman.D. Civil inattention is a type of normal behavior which we may feelthreatened.解析: 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段及最后一段第一句可知,礼貌性疏忽的结果是我们都心照不宣地同意让对方去做他们喜欢做的事,它是维护公共社会秩序的重要组成部分。因此,礼貌性疏忽对社会互动有积极影响。Ⅱ.阅读七选五Dealing With Righteous Anger There are two types of anger you might experience in life and both areperfectly valid.16.( ). It’s not logical at all and it’s perhapseven a little out of control.When you accidentally hit your toe againstsomething hard on the way to the bathroom in the morning and it hurts,that’s sudden anger.That type of anger will disappear after a few minutesand you’ll go back to your normal mood. The second is what I’ll call righteous anger.You haven’t hurt yourtoe but maybe someone forwarded an email about your work performancethat was not true or you found out you were the subject of some officegossip (闲言碎语).17.( ), maybe even for days orweeks.Sometimes it turns into bitterness and can make you a difficultperson.The truth is that you did have a reason to be upset.Someone didspread gossip.18.( ). How you deal with righteous anger is a signof your character, experience, and maturity level. My advice is to solve anger by choosing to have empathy (同理心).When you only see how you’ve been slighted (轻视) and thinkabout that in your head over and over again, it can turn bad.In anysituation, you can change the perspective to the other peopleinvolved.19.( ).However, there is usually something valid abouttheir perspective even if there is only a small sliver of validity.Be carefulbefore you send off an angry email in response to justify yourself. Instead, start with empathy — what was the perspective of yourcolleagues, what motivated them? When you have empathy, it helpsyou avoid seeing only how you’ve been hurt.20.( ).A. Maybe they were totally wrongB. The email did make unfair claimsC. Righteous anger lasts much longerD. The first kind is what I’ll call sudden angerE. It helps you resolve conflicts and deal with angerF. There’s some interesting science involving sudden anger G. Righteous anger will come up frequently in the workplace 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。义愤填膺,如何是好?试试同理心,换个角度,你将不再被愤怒牵着走。16. D 第二段中的The second提示了此处应为The first kind,且D项中的sudden anger与下文中的sudden anger为原词复现,故D项(第一种我称之为突发的怒气)符合语境。17. C 逗号后面的even for days or weeks解释了C项中的lasts muchlonger;此处与上一段末句中的disappear after a few minutes形成比较照应。比较照应指的是通过形容词和副词的比较等级形式以及其他一些有比较意义的词语表示的照应关系。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。义愤填膺,如何是好?试试同理心,换个角度,你将不再被愤怒牵着走。18. B 设空处与其上一句为并列关系,共同构成了上文中的you didhave a reason to be upset的原因。B项(那封邮件的确做了不实的断言)符合语境。19. A A项中的they指代设空处上一句中的the other people; A项中的totally wrong与设空处下一句中的something valid形成转折;根据设空处下一句中的However也可再次确定这种转折关系。20. E E项中的It helps you ...与设空处上一句中的it helps you ...结构一致,这两句描述了拥有同理心后的好处。Ⅲ.应用文写作 为迎接外国姐妹学校来访,学校准备选拔“文化交流小使者(Young Ambassador for Cultural Exchange)”。请你用英语写一篇竞选演讲稿,内容包括: 1. 自我介绍; 2. 竞选理由。注意:1.写作词数应为80左右;2. 可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。 参考范文: Good morning, dear judges.I’m Candidate No.1.I am here tocompete for the Young Ambassador for Cultural Exchange.
