Unit 3 Section Ⅱ Using language-【精讲精练】2023-2024学年高中英语必修第一册外研版（课时作业）

Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

(2023·本溪高级中学期中)I love training with my husband Chris.We do our own exercises separately, but then we really enjoy spending 30—40 minutes doing something we both like together.I also train with my family—my brother, his wife and our cousins will come to our house regularly to train together.It's like family fun time! Typically, a little bit of competition also makes us work out harder.

Laziness, as you know, is contagious.But so is enthusiasm.If you can get your partner on board, you will be able to encourage each other on those days when the other doesn't feel like moving.If you set yourself a challenge and add competition to the mix, I promise you that the training will be much more enjoyable.Time will fly by and you'll want to do it again.

This is why I wanted to learn Chris' favourite sport—surfing.Not only would we have more things to do together, but it would be a great challenge for me.In turn, I have introduced Chris to two of my favourite activities: horse riding and motorbiking.Now he also loves them, which means we have even more chances to have fun together.Encouraged by our example, my brother and his wife now train together too.This is what it's all about at the end of the day: quality time with your partner.

What if you don't have a partner? Well, I assume that you are sure to have a friend who would love to train with you.Or, if you have young children, why not train in the backyard with another parent while they are playing? You just need some music.The important thing is to have a plan and to make the time to do it.It will be much more enjoyable than doing it on your own.

答案　D

B

It's not possible to stay together with loved ones all the time.Sometimes family members

have to be far away from each other.During that time they might face something terrible.Although we know what they are suffering, being far away makes it harder to help and comfort (安慰) loved ones.There is no use worrying a lot about them.Keeping a positive attitude of support is more helpful than getting into worrying about the person.I think it is what I can do to help my loved ones.

My daughter has been working full­time during summer about 10 hours a day.She has to study hard for a big entrance exam.At first, like most people, I wanted to try to solve the problems and analyse (分析) the situation.Was there a better way of time management? Was there a better way of studying for this test? However, that was not always helpful.Sometimes, it even gave more pressure to her.Sometimes it might sound like there was something wrong to fix.However, it was just tiring at the end of the day.What would be the kind thing to do in this situation? It was hard to read someone's mind.I decided to just chat with her online and to send a hug emoji (表情) this time.It seemed more suitable than talking about solutions.Giving space can also be an act of help, comfort and kindness.

It was a fun and meaningful experiment to actively think about kind things to do rather than let it happen naturally.I've realized it and I'm grateful for this chance to share online.Give it a try too and you'll enjoy sweetness.

[语篇解读]　本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。我们不可能一直和所爱的人在一起，在此期间，他们可能会面临一些可怕的事情，与其为他们担心，不如保持一种积极的支持态度，尽我们所能来帮助所爱的人。

A．Worry is the best comfort to a loved one.

B．It is impossible to love someone around us.

C．The distance helps you do more to loved ones.

D．It's no use worrying a lot about loved ones not around us.

解析　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“There is no use worrying a lot about them.Keeping a positive attitude of support is more helpful than getting into worrying about the person.I think it is what I can do to help my loved ones.”可知，保持一种积极的支持态度比陷入对爱人的担忧更有帮助，为他们担心是没有用的。故选D。

答案　D

6．How did the author comfort her daughter at last?

A．By talking about solutions.

B．By analysing all the problems.

C．By buying a gift for her.
