课时冲关20　Unit 2　Onwards and upwards Ⅰ.阅读理解 主题：人与社会 体裁：记叙文 话题：理解 In my opinion, my mother has the ability to do anything, especially chores such as ironing and cooking.However, teaching her how to use the Internet is as frustrating as untangling (解开) wires. Once, my mother came to me to ask for help on how to find a recipe for all­beef Lasagna.I gave her very simple verbal instructions—go to the home page of a particular search engine and type in “recipe for all­beef Lasagna.” Fifteen minutes later, she came to me, telling me that she was unable to find the Internet icon.I went over to the computer and pointed out the icon to her. Another fifteen minutes went by when I felt a tap on my shoulder.This time, my mother said that she was unable to search for the particular recipe.Gritting (咬) my teeth, I walked to her room again.I saw that she had typed “all­beef Lasagna” instead.With frustrated strokes, I keyed in the correct spelling. Yet another fifteen minutes went by again when my mother gingerly tapped my shoulder.I stormed next door without bothering to hide my frustration.The main page of the website had not shifted one bit.I then realized that she did not know how to scroll(滚动屏幕) down the page.What had initially seemed like an easy task was turning out to be an intense one. To avoid being disturbed again, I decided to find the recipe for her.Without a word, I rapidly downloaded a few recipes, printed them out and passed them to my mother.However, seeing her embarrassment, I began to regret my impatience. At that moment，memories flashed through my mind.When I was young, my mother endured my endless questions, enlightening me with much patience.Now that I am older, the roles slowly reverse.As my mother may increasingly need my help, shouldn't I rethink how to respond to her needs? [语篇解读]　这是一篇记叙文。主要描述了母亲因不熟悉电脑而屡次向我求助，而我对她却越来越没有耐心，最后我终于意识到了自己的问题所在。 1．Why does the author gave her mother very simple instructions at first? A．Because she was an impatient person. B．Because she didn't want to be disturbed. C．Because she wanted to make them easy to follow. D．Because she thought it was an easy task to do. 解析：D　[细节理解题。根据第四段的“What had initially seemed like an easy task was turning out to be an intense one.(最初看起来是一项简单的任务，结果却变成了一项艰巨的任务。)”可知，一开始作者只给妈妈非常简单的指导是因为作者认为在网上查看菜谱是非常简单的任务。] 2．How did the author's mother feel when she got the recipes? A．Delighted.　　　　　 B．Embarrassed. C．Frustrated. D．Impatient. 解析：B　[细节理解题。根据第五段中“However, seeing her embarrassment, I began to regret my impatience.(然而，看到她的尴尬，我开始后悔我的不耐烦。)”可知，在作者拿到菜谱之后，妈妈感到非常的尴尬。] 3．Which of the following is probably the end of the story? A．The author becomes more willing to help her mother. B．The author's mother becomes more patient to her. C．The author's mother doesn't turn to her for help any more.

A．It's never too old to learn B．Action speaks louder than words C．Patience is the mother of success D．Understanding means standing in other's shoes 解析：D　[主旨大意题。文章第一段到第五段讲述了作者母亲因不熟悉电脑而屡次向我求助，而我对她却越来越没有耐心，最后一段提到作者回想起小时候母亲对待自己的耐心，后悔自己不耐烦的态度，从而认为自己要改变自己的态度，要站在母亲的角度上考虑她的需求。D项“理解意味着站在别人的立场上。”符合文意。] Ⅱ.完形填空 主题：人与社会 体裁：记叙文 话题：学生成功的原因 Every Saturday morning Phoenix Young would take piano lessons with a family friend when he was a child.“At that time we would____1____around and take all morning just to have a lesson，” Phoenix____2____.“And I loved it.” But when Phoenix was 12, his teacher proposed that he need better____3____.So his mother took him to a music school in the Bronx, and signed him up for classes with a teacher named Bade Simon, experienced bit known for being ____4____.And she quickly lived up to that ____5____.Phoenix found the stressful life was____6____like his lighthearted Saturday mornings with his former teacher, so it wasn't long before he____7____that he would quit.

[语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了亚马逊雨林的土壤出人意料地贫瘠的原因：雨季和炎热气候的影响。 1．however　[考查副词。句意：亚马逊雨林是多种植物生命的家园；然而，它的土壤却出人意料地缺乏营养。上一句表示“亚马逊雨林是多种植物生命的家园”，此处表示“它的土壤缺乏营养”，上下文语义构成转折，且空后有逗号，空处应用意为“然而，但是”的副词however，连接上下文。故填however。] 2．surprisingly　[考查副词。句意：亚马逊雨林是多种植物生命的家园；然而，它的土壤却出人意料地缺乏营养。分析句子可知，空处修饰形容词poor，surprising的副词形式surprisingly符合题意，意为“惊人地，出人意料地”，表示出人意料地缺乏营养。故填surprisingly。] 3．that/which　[考查定语从句。句意：如果我们给科学家一份列出土壤营养成分的报告，他或她可能会认为只有沙漠植物才能在那里生存！分析句子可知，空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词report，先行词指物，在从句中作主语，应用关系代词that或which作引导词。故填that/which。] 4．plants　[考查名词复数。句意：如果我们给科学家一份列出土壤营养成分的报告，他或她可能会认为只有沙漠植物才能在那里生存！结合上下文可知，此处表示沙漠植物这一类型的植物，空处应用可数名词plant的复数形式。故填plants。] 5．an　[考查冠词。句意：一方面，雨季对土壤有影响。分析句子可知，空处表示泛指，意为“一个，一份”，应用不定冠词，且impact以元音音素开头，应用an。故填an。] 6．When　[考查状语从句。句意：当水退去时，它带走了土壤中的养分。结合句意可知，前半句“水退去”应理解为和后半句“它带走了土壤中的养分”同时发生，空处应用从属连词when引导时间状语从句，意为“当……的时候”，且空处位于句首，首字母需大写。故填When。] 7．For　[考查固定短语。句意：另一方面，由于亚马逊的炎热气候，土壤很难积累足够的养分。根据上文的“For one thing”和空后的“another thing”可知，此处应用固定短语for another thing，意为“另一方面”，和上文呼应，引出另一个原因，空处应用for构成该短语，且空处位于句首，首字母需大写。故填For。] 8．to build　[考查非谓语动词。句意：另一方面，由于亚马逊的炎热气候，土壤很难积累足够的养分。根据“it is difficult for the soil”可知，此处用固定句型“It is＋形容词＋for sb./sth.to do sth.”，意为“对……来说，做某事怎么样”，其中It是形式主语，不定式短语作真正的主语，空处应用build的不定式形式to build。故填to build。] 9．are broken　[考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：死去的植物和动物被分解得更快。分析句子可知，空处作句子的谓语，此处在描述客观事实，时态应用一般现在时，break down“分解”和主语Dead plants and animals之间是被动关系，应用一般现在时的被动语态，且主语是复数，be动词应用are。故填are broken。] 10．allowing　[考查非谓语动词。句意：因此，森林里的大部分营养物质都被植物锁在自身里面，使它们以令人难以置信的速度生长。分析句子可知，句子主干成分完整，空处作句子的结果状语，结合句意可知，此处表示自然发生的结果，应用allow的现在分词形式allowing。故填allowing。] 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
