必修第1册 Unit 2 Exploring English(Word练习)-【创新教程】2025年高考英语艺考生文化课总复习（外研版）

Ⅰ.阅读理解 话题：历史故事，阐释短语 There's a phrase in Australia that is still widely in use today, “you've got Buckley's”. It relates to a man named William Buckley. Born in Cheshire, England, Buckley had served in the Napoleonic Wars where he was wounded in action, before being accused of receiving stolen goods (a roll of cloth) and sentenced to transportation (流放) for life in 1802. Buckley arrived at Port Phillip Bay with more than 300 soldiers, settlers and prisoners in 1803, aged 23. However, the settlers failed to settle at Port Phillip Bay and they gave up the site they chose for their settlement. As the settlers prepared to leave for Tasmania, Buckley escaped with 2 other men. But after reaching the other side of Port Phillip Bay the two tired, hungry and frightened men turned back for Sullivan Bay. Buckley would not give up and he wandered on alone, eating shellfish and fruits for several weeks before he was befriended by the Wathaurong people. Over the next 32 years Buckley lived with the Wathaurong and learnt their language and customs. When John Batman, a leading member of the Port Phillip Association, arrived with new settlers in 1835, Buckley finally decided to meet them. At first he couldn't remember his own language or name but managed to identify himself by the letters “WB” on his arm. He tried to work for the settlers and was employed as an interpreter between the settlers and the aborigines (土著人). But he felt he wasn't trusted by either side. After less than 2 years he left for Hobart where he died after an accident in January 1856. Buckley's story has been reinterpreted many times over the years. His name lives on in Australian English with the saying ‘you've got Buckley's’. It means very little chance—despite the fact that the real Buckley took his impossible chance for freedom and survived. 1．Why did William Buckley leave England? A．He was found guilty. B．He tried to escape war. C．He was caught stealing. D．He hoped for a better life. 2．What happened to the three prisoners during their escape? A．They suffered many hardships. B．Two of them died of starvation. C．They met the Wathaurong people. D．Buckley gave up on the other two. 3．What do we know about Buckley's last years? A．He worked as an interpreter. B．He earned his living in Hobart. C．He got on well with Batman's settlers. D．He stayed with the Wathaurong people. 4．In which situation will you say “you've got Buckley's”？ A．When a person survived a disaster. B．When a person isn't trusted by people. C．When a person tries to do something interesting. D．When a person wants to take a flight on a stormy night. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。通过讲述巴克利的故事，来说明短语“you've got Buckley's”的意思。 1．C　[细节理解题。根据第二段“Born in Cheshire, England, Buckley had served in the Napoleonic Wars where he was wounded in action, before being accused of receiving stolen goods (a roll of cloth) and sentenced to transportation(流放) for life in 1802. (巴克利出生于英国柴郡，曾在拿破仑战争中服役，并在战斗中负伤。1802年，他被指控偷东西(一卷布)，被判终身流放。)”可知，他偷东西被当场抓住，被判终身流放而离开英国。] 2．A　[推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“But after reaching the other side of Port Phillip Bay the two tired, hungry and frightened men turned back for Sullivan Bay.(但在到达菲利浦港的另一边后，这两个又累又饿又害怕的人转身向沙利文湾驶去。)”和第四段 “Buckley would not give up and he wandered on alone, eating shellfish and fruits for several weeks before he was befriended by the Wathaurong people.(巴克利没有放弃，他独自流浪，吃了几个星期的贝类和水果，直到他得到了瓦塔荣人的帮助。)”可推知，逃跑的三人一定遭受了很多苦难。] 3．B　[细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“He tried to work for the settlers and was employed as an interpreter between the settlers and the aborigines. But he felt he wasn't trusted by either side. After less than 2 years he left for Hobart where he died after an accident in January 1856.(他试图为移民工作，并被聘为移民和土著之间的翻译。但他觉得双方都不信任他。不到两年之后，他去了霍巴特，在1856年1月的一次事故中去世。)”可知，因为得不到两边人的信任，巴克利来到了霍巴特，最后死在了那里。] 4．D　[推理判断题。根据最后一段“Buckley's story has been reinterpreted many times over the years. His name lives on in Australian English with the saying “you've got Buckley's”. It means very little chance—despite the fact that the real Buckley took his impossible chance for freedom and survived.(多年来，巴克利的故事被多次重新诠释。他的名字在澳大利亚英语中被用于‘you've got Buckley's’。这意味着机会很小——尽管事实是，真正的巴克利抓住了他不可能的机会，获得了自由，并活了下来。)”可知，“you've got Buckley's”意思是机会很小，可知D项“When a person wants to take a flight on a stormy night.(当一个人想在暴风雨的夜晚乘坐飞机时。)”符合。] Ⅱ.完形填空 话题：英语教师，退休记忆 In Molly Pollak's second­floor Manhattan apartment, the spare bedroom is filled with decades of classroom memories. “Those are all my high school yearbooks，” Pollak says, __1__ to a shelf. “Those are my middle school yearbooks.

These weren't just a paragraph or two — many were pages long. “I don't think it is an exaggeration (夸张) to say that you__8__ my life，” wrote Rebecca Rosenthal. “There are a handful of people that __9__ who I am and you are one of them，” wrote Chris Ryan, one of her students in the 80s.

They saw the same themes over and over. So Pollak did what English teachers do: She __13__ those themes and found a thesis statement (中心句). “And the thesis statement is not what you __14__ it is，” she says. It's essentially this: “Molly __15__ us like adults when no one else did. She challenged us to rise to the occasion.” That's from the letter Jackson Krule wrote. He had Ms. Pollak as his teacher in 10th, 11th and 12th grade. 1．A.referring　　　　　　 B．pointing C．waving D．adding 2．A.throw away B．pick up C．give away D．sell out 3．A.wrote B．submitted C．received D．published 4．A.start B．end C．symbol D．bottom 5．A.appointment B．arrival C．retirement D．promotion 6．A.forced B．followed C．allowed D．invited 7．A.books B．letters C．emails D．gifts 8．A.changed B．saved C．gave D．dominated 9．A.shaped B．destroyed C．accepted D．created 10．A.recalled B．attracted C．noticed D．admitted 11．A.responses B．comments C．efforts D．decisions 12．A.familiar B．similar C．different D．tough 13．A.looked down B．looked out C．looked up D．looked across 14．A.remember B．think C．appreciate D．cherish 15．A.taught B．impressed C．treated D．contacted [语篇解读]　这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了几个月前快退休的莫莉收到了以前学生写给自己的75封信，信中学生们要么感激莫莉，要么讲述了中学时的激动时刻，或者学术上的突破。与此同时，她也注意到她第一年教学时的评论和40年后收到的评论非常相似。 1．B　[考查动词词义辨析。句意：“这些都是我高中时的年鉴，”波拉克指着一个架子说。A.referring提及；B.pointing指向；C.waving挥手；D.adding增加。根据前文“Those are all my high school yearbooks”以及后文“to a shelf”可知，应是指着架子说。] 2．A　[考查动词短语辨析。句意：但在教了40年初高中学生英语之后，波拉克有一本书永远不会扔掉。A.throw away扔掉；B.pick up拿起；C.give away赠送；D.sell out卖完。根据前文“Those are my middle school yearbooks.
