21．According to the passage, New York Jets may be the name of ________．A．a football team
B．a musical band
C．a famous building
D．a luxurious yacht
A解析：细节理解题。根据METLIFE STADIUM LUXURY SUITE部分中的“Just imagine yourself sitting in a luxury suite of stadium and watching the New York Jets at the Metlife Stadium.”可知，这里是指在体育馆看球赛，故选A。
22．What is special about THE DIAMOND IS FOREVER MARTINI?
A．It is so attractive and exotic.
B．It is the first thousand-dollar cocktail.
C．It firstly offers an expert jeweler's full services.
D．It takes place at Midtown Manhattan's wine bar.
C解析：细节理解题。根据THE DIAMOND IS FOREVER MARTINI部分中的“it is the first to offer the full services of an expert jeweler”可知，它的特别之处是首先提供专业珠宝商的全套服务，故选C。
23．What can you do if you charter a yacht?
A．Show off your wealth.
B．Enjoy Manhattan's night life.
C．Have a free dinner on a cruise.
D．Cruise around Manhattan for four hours.

In a foreign country, a man visited a local restaurant.He didn't speak their language.He ordered something indecipherable off the menu.When the waiter brought him a plate of delicious looking fried noodles, he smiled and made an OK sign at the waiter with his thumb and forefinger linked in a circle.Looking angry, the waiter then picked up the dish and thrown it to his lap.What he did wrong, he wondered.Well, nothing is quite as it seems when it comes to using hand gesture in another country.
Gestures have been used to replace words in many countries, and they are often specific to a given culture.Gesture may mean something complimentary in one culture, but is highly offensive (冒犯) in another.
The gesture “thumb-up” is commonly misinterpreted.In English, it is popularly known as “thumbs up”，despite the fact that the action is commonly performed with only one hand.English-speaking Caucasians use it to signal “OK”，which is the same meaning as O．K.ring gesture.The two can in fact be used almost interchangeably.
Avoid using this gesture in Southern Sardina or Northern Greece unless you want to invite a fight.While American, British and Australian would use the thumb up to signal hitch-hiking to the drivers, this message will not encourage a Greek driver or motorist to stop to give them a ride.
There are no right or wrong signals, only cultural https://www.doczj.com/doc/3e17734495.html,ck of cultural understanding will lead to disharmony among people from different cultures.When we know what to look for, such encounters with other cultures are actually very interesting, fascinating and fun.It is certainty a great topic to discuss over a cup of coffee and cakes.
【解题导语】在不同的文化背景下，肢体语言有不同的意义。如果不理解文化的差异，很可能会造成误会。在此，作者建议我们要理解文化的差异性。
24．What did the man in the first paragraph do wrong?
A．He misunderstood the waiter.
B．He didn't realize cultural differences.
C．He ordered something off the menu.
D．He made the signal in a rude way.
B解析：推理判断题。第二段是对第一段的一种解释说明，根据该段中的“Gesture may mean something complimentary in one culture, but is highly offensive (冒犯) in another.”可知，这个人的错误在于他没有意识到文化的差异，故选B。
25．What does the underlined word in the second paragraph mean?
A．Full of admiration.B．Full of aggression.
C．Full of complexity.D．Full of certainty.
A解析：词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“but is highly offensive(冒犯) in another”可知，在另一种文化中是对人的一种冒犯，由此可知，“Gesture may mean something complimentary in one culture”的意思是指某种手势语在一种文化中可能是一种积极的东西，结合第一段可知，应该指的是一种赞美，故选A。
26．What will happen if you make a thumb up toward a man in Northern Greece?
A．He will stop to give you a lift.
B．He will get annoyed and fight against you.
C．He will ask you to give him a HA.
D．He will make the same signal toward you.
B解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Avoid using this gesture in Southern Sardina or Northern Greece unless you want to invite a fight.”可知，在希腊北部，如果你对一个人伸出大拇指，他会很生气并且会和你打架，故选B。
27．What's the purpose of the passage?
A．To explain the meaning of different gestures.
B．To tell stories about different cultures.
C．To advise us to have an understanding of cultural differences.
D．To persuade people from different countries live in harmony.
C解析：写作意图题。由文章最后一段可知这篇文章主要讲了肢体语言在不同的文化背景下有着不同的意义。如果不理解文化的差异，很可能会造成误会，所以作者写这篇文章的目的在于建议我们要理解文化的差异性，故选C。
C
If you are a fruit grower—or would like to become one—take advantage of Apple Day to see what's around.It's called Apple Day but in practice it's more like Apple Month.The day itself is on October 21, but since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October around Britain.
Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples.To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio which was grown by the Romans.Although it doesn't taste of anything special, it's still worth a try, as is the knobbly (多疙瘩的) Cat's Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.
There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions.One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette, but you'll need a warm, sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it, so it's a_pipe_dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.
At the events, you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions, and because these are family affairs, children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.
Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit, including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园)．If you want to have a real orchard experience, try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale, near Faversham in Kent.
【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了“苹果节”的相关内容。
28．What can people do at the apple events?
A．Attend experts' lectures.
B．Visit fruit-loving families.
C．Plant fruit trees in an orchard.
D．Taste many kinds of apples.
D解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples.”可知，参加相关庆祝活动的人们可以品尝各种各样的苹果，故选D。
29．What can we learn about Decio?
A．It is a new variety.
B．It has a strange look.
C．It is rarely seen now.
D．It has a special taste.
C解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio”可知，德西奥(Decio)现在比较罕见。故A项错误，C项正确。文中并未提及德西奥(Decio)的外形奇异，故B项错误；D项与第二段中的“Although it doesn't taste of anything special, it's still worth a try”表述相反。
30．What does the underlined phrase “a pipe dream”in paragraph 3 mean?
A．A practical idea.
B．A vain hope.
C．A brilliant plan.
D．A selfish desire.
B解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette, but you'll need a warm, sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it”可知奥尔良雷奈特(Orleans Reinette)是最好吃的苹果品种之一，但它的种植条件非常苛刻，所以喜爱它的人想经常吃到它是徒劳的愿望，故选B。
31．What is the author's purpose in writing the text?
A．To show how to grow apples.
B．To introduce an apple festival.
C．To help people select apples.
D．To promote apple research.
B解析：写作意图题。综合全文可知，作者向读者介绍了一个节日——苹果节(Apple Day)，并推荐人们参加这个节日，故选B。

The 1993 movie Jurassic Park wasn't the first film to show dinosaurs in the modern world.But it did a good job of bringing the idea of cloning dinosaurs into popular culture.It represented dinosaur cloning in a way that made sense to a lot of people, and it was a successful film, making more than $900 million worldwide.
Jurassic Park built on the idea of getting DNA from mosquitoes kept in amber.While this might seem possible at first sight, it's highly unlikely that scientists could find usable dinosaur DNA in mosquito fossils.Scientists would need a very specific sample—a female mosquito that had taken lots of dinosaur blood immediately before being trapped in amber.Since fossilization in amber is a relatively rare event, the chances of this happening are pretty small.
The lack of possible samples isn't the only problem.Most insect fossils found in amber are also too young to contain dinosaur blood—dinosaurs were gone by the time the insects became trapped.Many insects went bad from the inside out after they were trapped, leaving nothing inside for scientists to try to find.Finally, the sample would have to be very dry, since DNA can break down quickly in the presence of water.
But if researchers did find a perfectly kept mosquito with a body full of dinosaur blood, bringing back its DNA would still be difficult.The blood with the dinosaur DNA would be surrounded by the body of an insect, which has its own DNA.There could also be DNA from the other cells trapped in the amber.Then, of course, there's the DNA in the laboratory itself—and in the body of the scientist.
【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章以电影《侏罗纪公园》引出“克隆恐龙”这一话题，并论述了克隆恐龙的可能性非常小。
32．Why is the film Jurassic Park mentioned at the beginning?
A．To introduce the topic of cloning dinosaurs.
B．To encourage scientists to clone dinosaurs.
C．To give a simple introduction to dinosaurs.
D．To stress the possibility of cloning dinosaurs.
A解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But it did a good job of bringing the idea of cloning dinosaurs into popular culture.(电影很好地将克隆恐龙的想法带入了大众的文化生活中。)”可知，作者提到电影《侏罗纪公园》是为了引出克隆恐龙的话题。故选A。
33．The key to cloning dinosaurs is to gain________．
A．insect fossils
B．dinosaur DNA
C．dinosaur blood
D．mosquitoes in amber
B解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Jurassic Park built on the idea of getting DNA from mosquitoes kept in amber.While this might seem possible at first sight, it's highly unlikely that scientists could find usable dinosaur DNA in mosquito fossils.Scientists would need a very specific sample—a female mosquito that had taken lots of dinosaur blood immediately before being trapped in amber.(从保存在琥珀中的蚊子身上提取恐龙的DNA，电影《侏罗纪公园》是在这样的想法指导下拍摄的。虽然乍一看这似乎是可能的，但科学家们很难在蚊子化石中找到有用的恐龙DNA。科学家们需要一个非常特殊的样本——一只被困在琥珀中之前已经吸取大量恐龙血液的雌性蚊子。)”可知，克隆恐龙的关键是获取恐龙的DNA。故选B。
34．What is the author's opinion on cloning dinosaurs?
A．It's a step away from success.
B．It will be a fruitless attempt.
C．It requires further research.
D．It lacks creative work.
B解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中的“But if researchers did find a perfectly kept mosquito with a body full of dinosaur blood, bringing back its DNA would still be difficult.(但如果研究人员真的发现了一只保存完好的蚊子，它的身体充满了恐龙的血液，那么要找回恐龙的DNA仍然很困难。)”可知，提取恐龙DNA 几乎是不可能的事情，故作者认为克隆恐龙是没有结果的。故选B。
35．What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Why Was Jurassic Park Successful?
B．Reasons for Dinosaurs' Dying Out
C．Can Scientists Clone Dinosaurs?
D．Ways of Cloning Dinosaurs
C解析：标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章以电影《侏罗纪公园》引出“克隆恐龙”的话题，并论述了克隆恐龙的可能性非常小。故标题Can Scientists Clone Dinosaurs？(科学家能克隆恐龙吗？)与文章内容吻合。A.Why was Jurassic Park Successful？(电影《侏罗纪公园》为何取得成功？)只是文章提到的一个事实；
B.Reasons for Dinosaurs' Dying Out(恐龙灭绝的原因)在文中没有被提到；D.Ways
of Cloning Dinosaurs(克隆恐龙的方式)虽在文中有提到，但是文章通过对该方式的分析是为了得出克隆恐龙的可能性非常小这一结论。故选C。

必修二 Unit 1 In search of the amber room Frederick William I, the king of Prussia, could never have imagined that his greatest gift to the Russian people would have such an amazing history. This gift was the Amber Room, which was given this name because several tons of amber were used to make it. The amber which was selected had a beautiful yellow-brown color like honey. The design of the room was in the fancy style popular in those days. It was also a treasure decorated with gold and jewels, which took the c ountry’s best artists about ten years to make. In fact, the room was not made to be a gift. It was designed for the palace of Fredrick I. However, the next King of Prussia, Fredrick William I, to whom the amber room belonged, decided not to keep it. In 1716 he gave it to Peter the Great. In return, the Czar sent him a troop of his best soldiers. So the Amber Room became part of the Czar’s winter palace in St Petersburg. About four meters long, the room served as a small reception hall for important visitors. Later, Catherine Ⅱ had the Amber Room moved to a palace outside St Petersburg where she spent her summers. She told her artists to add more details to it. In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted. Almost six hundred candles lit the room, and its mirrors and pictures shone like gold. Sadly, although the Amber Room was considered one of the wonders of the world, it is now missing. In September 1941, the Nazi army was near St Petersburg. This was a time when the two countries were at war. Before the Nazis could get to the summer palace, the Russians were able to remove some furniture and small art objects from the Amber Room. However, some of the Nazis secretly stole the room itself. In less than two days 100000 pieces were put inside twenty-seven wooden boxes. There is no doubt that the boxes were then put on a train for Konigsberg, which was at a time a German city on the Baltic Sea. After that, what happened to the Amber Room remains a mystery. Recently, the Russians and Germans have built a new Amber Room at the summer palace. By studying old photos of the former Amber room, they have made the new one look like the old one. In 2003 it was ready for the people of St Petersburg when they celebrated the 300th birthday of their city. 寻找琥珀屋 普鲁士国王腓特烈·威廉一世绝不可能想到他送给俄罗斯人民的厚礼会有一段令人惊讶的历史。这件礼物就是琥珀屋, 它之所以叫这个名字,是因为建造这间房子用了好几吨琥珀,被选择的琥珀色彩艳丽, 呈黄褐色像蜜一样。屋子的设计采用当时流行的奇特风格。琥珀屋也是用金银珠宝装饰的珍品，这花费了全国最优秀的艺术家大约十年的时间才完成。 事实上, 琥珀屋并不是作为礼物而建造的。它是为腓烈特一世的宫殿而建造。然而,下一位普鲁士国王,腓烈特·威廉一世, 这个琥珀屋的主人却决定不再保留它了。1716年, 他把它送给了彼得大帝。作为回馈, 沙皇则送给他一队自己最好的士兵。所以, 琥珀屋就成了沙皇在圣彼得堡东宫的一部分。琥珀屋长约4米, 被用作接待重要来宾的小型会客室。 后来、叶卡捷琳娜二世派人把琥珀屋搬到了圣彼得堡郊外避暑的宫殿中。她让艺术家们给它增添了更多的装饰。1770年,这间琥珀屋按她要求的方式完工了。将近600支蜡烛照亮了这个房间,里面的镜子和图画就像金子一样闪闪发光。不幸的是,虽然琥珀屋被认为是世界奇迹之一,可是现在它却消失了。

In addition, the students’interest in learning English can be further stimulated. Teaching procedures: Step 1 Lead-in Show pictures of places of interest in China like the West Lake, the Yellow Mountain, the Great Wall and so on to the class and ask them questions as follows: 1. Do you like traveling? 2. Have you ever been to any of the places? [Explanation] 通过对中国名胜古迹的图片浏览，激发学生对祖国大好河山的热爱，并唤起学生强烈的求知欲望和学习热情，寓教于乐。 Step 2 Warming up Ask the Ss to discuss the following question： Suppose you are given a chance to choose one of the places for your holiday, where would you like to go? What kind of things will you plan to take with you? Then divide the whole class into 4 or 5 teams and ask them to compete with each other for more answers. Write down their answers on the blackboard. Afterwards, show pictures of the items that are often packed by people for their holiday. [Explanation] 这个比赛环节的设计既是为了促进学生的快速思维，又让他们对以前学过的相关词汇作一个回顾。同时，游戏常常能很大程度地活跃课堂气氛，起到很好的“热身”作用。 Step3 Pre-reading

Unit 2English around the world 单元规则 本单元的中心话题是“世界英语(English around the world)”，主要介绍了英语及其在世界上的发展状况(English language and its development)和各种各样带有民族、地域特色的英语(different kinds of English)等具体内容。语言知识和语言技能等都是围绕“世界英语”(English around the world)这一中心话题展开的。通过对这一话题的探讨，旨在加强学生对英语语言的了解，对当代语言特别是英语发展趋势的了解。 为了围绕中心话题开展听、说、读、写活动，本单元安排了八个部分：“热身(Warming Up)”“读前(Pre-reading)”“阅读(Reading)”“理解(Comprehending)”“语言学习(Learning about Language)”“语言运用(Using Language)”“小结(Summing Up)”和“学习建议(Learning Tip)”。 “热身（Warming Up）”部分以问答(Do you know that there is more than one kind of English in the world? )和图表的形式，简要介绍了世界英语以及英语语言在某些重要方面有很大差异，使学生感受到英语语言的多文化、多层次、多元性，对英国英语和美国英语的不同有一个粗浅的了解，为本单元的进一步学习作好了准备。 “读前（Pre-reading）”部分设计了三个步骤都与单元主题有关，因此可以引发学生对课文主题的思考，以便参与课堂活动。这时可以展开简短的讨论，讨论时要鼓励学生独立思考，阐述不同的看法。 “阅读（Reading）”部分提供了一篇文章，标题是THE ROAD TO MODERN ENGLISH，简要地说明了英语语言的起源、发展变化、形成原因，以及它的发展趋势。通过这篇文章，使学生了解一些关于英语的知识，了解一点当代语言新趋势和新特点，明确为什么除了英国英语和美国英语还会有印度英语、加拿大英语等，以后可能还会有中国英语。 “理解（Comprehending）”部分设计了三个练习，练习1判断正误，旨在检测学生对课文基本内容的理解程度；练习2列出英语的发展阶段，旨在检测学生的归纳概括能力；练习3回答问题, 要求学生结合实际作答，目的是挖掘学生的学习潜能。这阶段要注意给他们提供充分的思维时间和空间，让他们做学习的主人，学会自己解决问题。 “语言学习（Learning about Language）”部分教学本课重点词汇和重点语法项目。词汇部分设计了4个练习：练习1是给新单词和短语与其释义配对；练习2是用练习1中的一些单词完成段落；练习3是将短语填入段落中使其具有意义，并将这些意群标出；练习4告诉我们有时英国人和美国人使用不同的介词，要求用英国英语和美国英语的介词填空，并比较它们的不同。设计这些练习的主要目的是通过各种练习帮助学生重温本单元前几个部分所学习的新单词和短语，同时也通过新的例子展现了美国英语、英国英语的差异。在这一环节中，教师要引导学生自学、自做、自助、自悟，并适时适当地给以指导点拨，使学生形成自主学习意识，掌握合适的学习策略。语法项目是祈使句及其间接引语，设计了四个步骤：步骤1问能否从“阅读(Reading)”部分中找到表示“要求”和“请求”的祈使句，观察如何用间接引语来复述；步骤2首先着重介绍了表示“要求”和表示“请求”的祈使句之间的不同，然后要求将所给表达按“要求”和“请求”分类；步骤3要求先判断所给句子是“要求”还是“请求”，然后用间接引语复述；步骤4要求运用“要求”和“请求”结合具体语境编对话。设计这些练习的目的就是让学生了解表示“要求”和表示“请求”的祈使句之间的不同，理解并运用它们以及学会正确地转述“要求”和“请求”。教师在教学中要注意启发学生从实际语境出发，理解说话人的语气，灵活掌握。 “语言运用（Using Language）”部分分为Reading, Listening, Reading and speaking和Writing四个步骤：Reading主要介绍了在当今世界各国各地说英语都有自己的特色，即便是美国东西部、南北部，说话也有所不同。学生读完文章后可讨论中国的方言，使他们感受到

A FACT OR AN OPINION What is a fact Is it something that people believe No. A fact is anything that can be proved. For example, it can be proved that China has more people than any other country in the world. This is a fact. Then what is an opinion An opinion is what someone believes is true but has not been proved. So an opinion is not good evidence in a trial. For example, it is an opinion if you say “Cats are better pets than dogs”. It may be true, but it is difficult to prove. Some peo ple may not agree with this opinion but they also cannot prove that they are right. In a trial, a judge must decide which eyewitnesses to believe and which not to believe. The judge does not consider what each eyewitness looks like or where that person lives or works. He/she only cares about whether the eyewitness has given true information, which must be facts rather than opinions. This kind of information is called evidence. 人教版新课标必修2 unit2 课文原文word格式 AN INTERVIEW Pausanias, who was a Greek writer about 2,000 years ago, has come on a magical journey on March 18th 2007 to find out about the present-day Olympic Games.
