01 Period Ⅰ Welcome to the unit & Reading Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练 1 A [福建厦门2024高一期末] Watching movies is great for improving your English. And if you choose films that you enjoy watching, you’ll learn English without even realizing it! Here are four movies that are perfect for English learners. Charlotte’s Web （2006） Story: The power of friendship between a pig named Wilbur and a spider named Charlotte. The live-action film, a fine adaptation of E.B.White’s book, will entertain the young audience with cute talking animals and easy-to-follow language. Adults will also be charmed by heart-warming good time and learn to look at the world with curiosity and joy. Toy Story （1995） Story: A cartoon film about toys that come to life when children and adults aren’t around. The storylines are clear and the characters use simple but useful language. Though it’s mainly for kids, Toy Story doesn’t feel childish. The story and jokes also attract adults, so parents will be more likely to take their children to see the film. 刷阅读理解 2 Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory （1971） Story: Things go wrong when a group of kids get a free tour of Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory. This film is also great for English learners as it is generally easy to follow. And you’ll hear some extracts（选段）from English literature because Willy often quotes well-known writers such as Oscar Wilde and Shakespeare. The Sound of Music （1965） Story: A young woman named Maria becomes the nanny to seven children in a house in Austria. The Sound of Music is a musical and listening to music is one of the best ways to improve your English. Many of the film’s songs have become classics because they’re so catchy. 刷阅读理解 【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四部可以帮助英语学习者提高英语水平的电影。 1.Which movie attracts cartoon lovers most?( ) B A.Charlotte’s Web.

B.A language magazine. C.A movie poster. D.A toy advertisement. 解析 推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知，文章介绍了四部可以帮助英语学习者提高英语水平的电影，因此这篇文章可能选自一本语言杂志。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 6 &1& 核心词汇 1.charm vi. & vt. 吸引；迷住 n. 魅力；吸引力 2.come to life （仿佛活着）开始动起来；变得活跃 &2& 进阶词汇 heart-warming adj. 使人幸福愉快的 刷阅读理解 7 B [安徽十校联盟2023高一联考] A Midsummer Night’s Dream may be one of Shakespeare’s most performed plays—but its latest version from the Royal Shakespeare Company is unlike any seen before. Titled Dream, the 50-minute online production makes it possible for audiences to remotely guide the leading character Puck through a virtual forest. In 2016, the Royal Shakespeare Company’s production of The Tempest used high-tech to create a 3D digital image that was projected above the stage. The difference this time is that everything in the play—the performers and their surroundings—is shown virtually. Seven actors perform in a specially-built studio. They are surrounded by a 360-degree camera set, made up of 47 cameras with every movement almost immediately presented digitally, which is presented to viewers online. With its much-reduced characters, Dream is not a complete production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, but rather a story inspired by it, focusing on Puck and the fairies（小精灵）. 刷阅读理解 8 Up to 2,000 audience members for each performance can become part of the show and will be invited to guide Puck through the forest. On the screen, the chosen audience will appear as a cloud of tiny fireflies（萤火虫）. By using their mouse or finger on the screen of a smart device, they will be able to move their firefly across the screen, and Puck will be at their beck and call to go through the virtual space. For viewers watching at home, the virtual fairies moving through a digital forest will look more like a video game than the average Royal Shakespeare Company show. “Without the fireflies—the audiences—Puck wouldn’t be going anywhere,” said E.M. Williams who plays the role. “The audiences are very much the fuel and the energy of the show.” 刷阅读理解 9 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了皇家莎士比亚剧团将新技术引入到《仲夏夜之梦》这部戏剧中，以引起观众们的广泛参与和强烈的沉浸感。 1.What makes Dream different from A Midsummer Night’s Dream?( ) D A.The number of actors and actresses. B.The surroundings around the performers. C.The 3D digital image it chooses to show. D.The way it presents everything in the play. 解析 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句The difference this time is that everything in the play—the performers and their surroundings—is shown virtually.可知，这部名为《梦》的新剧的不同之处在于剧中的演员和他们周围的环境以虚拟形式呈现。由此判断，这个版本以不同的方式呈现剧中的一切。 刷阅读理解 10 易错警示 本题易误选B项。根据题目关键词可将答案定位至文章第二段最后一句，但原文表述是the performers and their surroundings，B项表述片面。 刷阅读理解 11 2.What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?( ) C A.Leading characters of the play. B.Audiences’ opinions on the play. C.The play’s production process. D.The inspiration for the play. 解析 主旨大意题。根据第三段内容可知，七名演员在一个专门建造的演播室里表演。他们被一个由47台摄像机组成的360度摄像装置包围，每个动作几乎都是立即以数字化方式呈现给观众。由此可推测，本段主要介绍了这部剧的拍摄过程。 刷阅读理解 12 3.What does the underlined part “be at their beck and call” in paragraph 4 probably mean?( ) A A.Be ready to follow their order. B.Be happy to receive a call. C.Be difficult to control. D.Be willing to guide them. 解析 词义猜测题。根据第四段中的Up to 2,000 audience members for each performance can become part of the show and will be invited to guide Puck through the forest.可知，观众们可以指引虚拟角色前进。结合画线部分前提到“通过在智能设备的屏幕上使用鼠标或手指，观众们能够在屏幕上移动他们的萤火虫”可猜测，be at their beck and call意为“准备好听从他们的命令”。 刷阅读理解 13 4.What do E.M. Williams’ words in the last paragraph show?( ) D A.The cost of the show. B.The pleasure of the audiences. C.The task of the leading character. D.The importance of the audiences. 解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The audiences are very much the fuel and the energy of the show.”可知，正是因为观众作为“电子萤火虫”的参与，才使得这部戏剧变得独特起来，说明观众的参与是非常重要的。 刷阅读理解 14 &3& 核心词汇 1.image n. 图像，影像；形象 2.up to 达到（某数量、程度等）；至多有 3.average adj. 普通的；平常的；平均的 n. 一般水准；平均数 v.平均为 &4& 熟词生义 project 熟义：n. 方案；计划；工程 生义：vt. 放映；投射 刷阅读理解 15 [江苏南京2023高一期末] Villains（反派角色）are some of the most memorable characters in films, but when we think of successful villains, they might show different features. In Star Wars, Emperor Palpatine is unable to understand others. It is not the same with Darth Vader, another bad guy in the movie—yet they are both clearly successful villains. The difference raises one question. 1. . Firstly, a horrible personal look can help to create frightening villains. 2. . For example, in Martin Scorsese’s films, villains with scars（疤痕）on their faces usually wear expensive suits while attacking people, which encourages audiences to be afraid of their power. Secondly, effective villains also have to test heroes in the story. 3. . In Whiplash, the extremely strict jazz teacher never accepts any mistakes, and he often punishes his students heavily. The hero, Andrew, one of his students with a strong will, is tested by having to face such a frightening villain again and again. B F A 刷7选5 16 Here comes the last trick. 4. . To become memorable and achieve a lasting place in film history, a villain needs to have a purpose or motivation（动机）. In Misery, the nurse Annie keeps her favourite writer, Paul, as a prisoner. What’s her motivation? She wants him to rewrite his next chapter as she is unhappy with the ending of his latest work. 5. . Next time you find yourself watching a villain on screen, see which of these tricks have been used to make them particularly memorable! A.They can’t just be beaten easily. B.What makes a successful villain? C.Are villains really necessary in all films? D.The film is well organised in terms of the storyline. E.It’s necessary for a villain to be bad with a purpose. F.This sense of fear can be achieved in different ways. G.The screenwriter gave her a reason to move the story forward. E G 刷7选5 17 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。电影中的反派角色经常令人记忆深刻，文章介绍了如何成功地塑造一个反派角色。 1.___ B 解析 根据上文的The difference raises one question.可知，设空处应是一个问句，答案应该选自B项或C项；根据第二、三、四段内容可知，这三段主要介绍了如何才能塑造一个成功的反派角色，是对B项（是什么塑造了成功的反派角色?）的具体回答。故选B项。 2.___ F 解析 根据第二段第一句Firstly, a horrible personal look can help to create frightening villains.可知，看起来非常可怕的外表可以帮助塑造令人恐惧的反派角色，F项（这种恐惧感可以通过不同的方式实现）承接上文内容，且下一句说明了可以用什么方式来营造这种恐惧感，是对F项的举例说明，衔接合理。 刷7选5 18 3.___ A 解析 第三段第一句Secondly, effective villains also have to test heroes in the story.指出“有效的反派角色也要考验故事中的英雄”，A项（他们不可能轻易被打败）中的They指的是effective villains，是对上一句的引申说明，且下文中的实例阐述反派角色会不断为主人公带来阻碍和考验，解释了反派角色通常不会轻易被打败。故A项符合语境。 刷7选5 19 方法总结 巧用代词的指代关系解7选5 解7选5时，可通过分析代词在句中所作的成分和代词的单复数推断它所指代的内容，从而巧妙地利用代词的指代关系快速而准确地选出最佳选项。如本题A项中的They指代effective villains。这个方法快捷有效，但是需要格外注意的是，所选的选项要和前后文衔接得当。 刷7选5 20 4.___ E 解析 根据下一句To become memorable and achieve a lasting place in film history, a villain needs to have a purpose or motivation.可知，此处介绍要想让人印象深刻并在电影史上占据一席之地，反派角色需要有目的或动机。E项（反派必须是有目的的坏人）与其照应，下一句是对E项的进一步解释说明。故选E项。 5.___ G 解析 根据上一句She wants him to rewrite his next chapter as she is unhappy with the ending of his latest work.可知，此处介绍她的目的，G项（编剧给了她一个推动故事发展的理由）中的her与上一句的she相呼应，并且句意承接上一句，衔接合理，符合语境。 刷7选5 21 $$
