And why？(Critical Thinking 批判性思维) •I_feel_so_lucky_to_have...(sight/hearing/...friends/parents...). •With_its/their_help,_I_can_... •Without_it/them,_I_can't_..._ •Therefore,_I_am_so_grateful_to_it/them_that_I_will_... ………………………………………………………………………………………◎ ①blessing/ˈblesI/ n．幸事，幸运 ②strike v．顿时使处于某状态。其过去分词形式为struck或stricken。 be struck/stricken dumb/deaf/blind一时什么也说不出/听不见/看不见 注：stricken还可作形容词，意为“患病的；遭受……的。” ③appreciative/əˈpriːʃətIv/ adj.感激的 be appreciative of sth感激某事，感谢某事 ④now and then有时，偶尔，时常 近义 from time to time不时，有时，偶尔，间或 at times有时，间或 ⑤in particular特殊的，专门的，具体的 ⑥worthy of note值得注意的(＝noteworthy) worthy/ˈwɜːði/ adj.值得尊敬的；值得赞赏的 worthy of值得……的 ⑦mere/mIə/ adj.仅仅，只不过 merely adv.仅仅，只不过 ⑧reveal/rIˈviːl/ v．揭示；显出 revelation/ˌrevəˈleIʃ(ə)n/ n．展现，显示 ⑨say 熟词生义vt.比方说；假设 ⑩gentleness/ˈdʒentlnIs/ n．和蔼，温和 gentle adj.温柔的；温和的 ⑪companionship/kəmˈpænjənʃIp/ n．友谊；友好交往 companion n．旅伴，陪伴；同伴 fingertip/ˈfIɡəˌtIp/ n．指尖 ⑬outline/ˈaʊtlaIn/ n．外形，轮廓 ⑭intoxicate/InˈtɒksIkeIt/ v．使兴奋，使陶醉 intoxicate one's eyes on sth使某人的眼睛陶醉于某物 ⑮pageant/ˈpædʒ(ə)nt/ n．盛大的(露天)演出 the pageant of(历史事件的)缤纷场景 ⑯probe into探究，追问 probe/prəʊb/ v．调查；探究 n．探究；宇宙探测航天器 ⑰dawn/dɔːn/ n．黎明，破晓 at dawn在拂晓 from dawn till dusk从早到晚 ⑱delight/dIˈlaIt/ n．使人高兴的事 delightful/dIˈlaItf(ə)l/ adj.令人愉快的，讨人喜欢的 workaday/ˈwɜːkədeI/ adj.平凡的；平淡的 ⑳amid/əˈmId/ prep.在……之中 haunt/hɔːnt/ n．(某人)常去的地方 ㉒go about继续做某事，忙于某事 ㉓permanent/ˈpɜːmənənt/ adj.长久的；永久的 [反义]temporary adj.短暂的，临时的，暂时的 ㉔close in包围，合拢，靠近(常与on连用)；(夜色)加浓，(夜幕)降临 ㉕descend/dIˈsend/ v．降临；来临 descend on/upon降临 ㉖hint/hInt/ n．暗示；征兆 v．暗示 ㉗mighty/ˈmaIti/ adj.强有力的；雄伟的 ㉘strains of音乐的曲调或旋律 ㉙orchestra/ˈɔːkIstrə/ n．(大型的)管弦乐队 ㉚tactile/ˈtæktaIl/ adj.触觉的 ㉛perfume/ˈpɜːfjuːm/ n．香味 ㉜relish/ˈrelIʃ/ n．享受，乐趣 with relish津津有味地 ㉝morsel/ˈmɔːs(ə)l/ n．(尤指食物的)一小片，一小块 ◎……………………………………………………………………………………… Three Days to See 1I have often thought it would be a blessing① if each human being were stricken② blind and deaf for a few days at some time during his early adult life．[1]Darkness would make him more appreciative③ of sight；silence would teach him the joys of sound. [1]画线部分为省略了that的宾语从句，作动词thought的宾语。该从句中if...adult life是if从句，表示与现在事实相反的假设，if从句的谓语是were stricken，对应的主句谓语是would be。 2Now and then④ I have tested my seeing friends to discover what they see.Recently，I asked a friend who had just returned from a long walk in the woods what she had observed.“Nothing in particular⑤，”she replied. 学生用书第43页 3How was it possible，I asked myself，to walk for an hour through the woods and see nothing worthy of note⑥？[2] I who cannot see find hundreds of things to interest me through mere⑦ touch.If I can get so much pleasure from touch，how much more beauty must be revealed⑧ by sight？And I have imagined what I should most like to see if I were given the use of my eyes，say⑨ for just three days. [2]该句是特殊疑问句。it是形式主语，to walk...of note是动词不定式短语作真正的主语。I asked myself作插入语。 4On the first day，I should want to see the people whose kindness and gentleness⑩ and companionship⑪ have made my life worth living.I do not know what it is to see into the heart of a friend through that “window of the soul”，the eye．[3]I can only“see”through my fingertips⑫ the outline⑬ of a face.I should like to see the books which have been read to me，and which have revealed to me the deepest channels of human life and the human spirit.In the afternoon I should take a long walk in the woods and intoxicate⑭ my eyes on the beauties of the world of nature.That night，I should not be able to sleep. [3]what引导宾语从句，在该从句中，what作表语，it是形式主语，to see into...eye是动词不定式短语作真正的主语。the eye是window of the soul的同位语。 5On my second day，I should like to see the pageant⑮ of man's progress，and I should go to the museums.I should try to probe into⑯ the soul of man through his art.The things I knew through touch I should now see.[4]The evening of my second day I should spend at a theater or at the movies.[5] [4]和[5]分别把see的宾语The things I knew through touch和spend的宾语The evening of my second day提到句首，以示强调。其中I knew through touch为省略了关系词的定语从句，修饰The things。 学生用书第44页 6The following morning，I should again greet the dawn⑰，anxious to discover new delights⑱，new revelations of beauty．[6]Today I shall spend in the workaday⑲ world，amid⑳ the haunts㉑ of men going about㉒ the business of life. 7At midnight permanent㉓ night would close in㉔ on me again.Only when darkness had again descended㉕ upon me should I realize how much I had left unseen.[7] [7]Only when...me是“only＋时间状语从句”置于句首，此时主句要用部分倒装语序。 8I who am blind can give one hint㉖ to those who see：Use your eyes as if tomorrow you would be stricken blind．[8]And the same method can be applied to the other senses.Hear the music of voices，the song of a bird，the mighty㉗ strains of㉘ an orchestra㉙，as if you would be stricken deaf tomorrow．[9]Touch each object you want to touch as if tomorrow your tactile㉚ sense would fail．[10]Smell the perfume㉛ of flowers，taste with relish㉜ each morsel㉝，as if tomorrow you could never smell and taste again．[11]But of all the senses，I am sure that sight must be the most delightful.[12] ( Excerpts from “Three Days to See” by Helen Keller) [8][9][10][11]均为as if引导的方式状语从句，表示对将来情况的假设，使用虚拟语气。 [12]of all...表示“在所有……中”，常与最高级连用。 ………………………………………………………………………………………◎ 假如给我三天光明 我常常想，如果每个人在刚成年的某个时候能失明、失聪几天，这或许是一件幸事。黑暗会使他更加珍视光明；而寂静会教他领略声音的乐趣。 我时不时地询问我的有视力的朋友，了解一下他们看到了什么。最近，我问一个在树林里走了很长一段路刚回来的朋友，问她看到了什么。“没什么特殊的东西，”她回答道。 我问自己，在树林里漫步一个小时，竟没有看到什么值得注意的东西，这怎么可能呢？我一个看不见东西的人，仅凭触摸就能发现数百件使我感兴趣的东西。如果我从触摸中就能获得如此多的乐趣，那么有多少美景是通过视觉一定能领略到的呢？并且我想象着如果我有视力，哪怕只有三天，我最想看到的是什么。 第一天，我要看看那些待我仁慈、温和、友好，从而使我的生活变得有价值的人。我不知道透过“心灵之窗”，即眼睛，来探视一个朋友的内心是怎么回事。我只能通过我的指尖“看”脸的轮廓。我想看看别人为我读过的、为我指出了人生及心灵最深航道的那些书。下午我将去树林里漫步，让我的眼睛陶醉在大自然的美景之中。那天晚上，我将无法入睡。 学生用书第45页 第二天，我想看看人类进步的盛况，我将会去博物馆。我将通过艺术来探究人的灵魂。此时我会看看那些我凭触摸所知道的东西。第二天晚上，我将会在剧院或电影院里度过。 下一天清晨，我将再次迎接黎明，急于寻找新的喜悦，新的美景。今天，我将在当前的平凡世界中度过，到为生活奔忙的人们常去的地方。 到了午夜，永久的黑夜将再次向我逼近。只有当黑暗再次降临，我才意识到我还有多少东西没有见到。 我，一个盲人，想给有视力的人一点提示：运用你的眼睛吧，就像你明天就要失明一样。其他感官也同样适用该方法。去听音乐般的噪音，鸟儿的鸣唱，管弦乐队铿锵的旋律，就像你明天就要失聪一样。触摸你想触摸的每一个物体，就像明天你的触觉就要衰退一样。闻闻花香，津津有味地品尝每一口食物，仿佛你明天再也不能闻到气味或品尝味道一样。不过，我相信，在所有感官中，最令人开心的一定是视觉。

In 2018, Reis had a serious motorcycle accident and spent time in a hospital. The accident affected him deeply, body and spirit. He had several medical operations. Reis said he felt like he was “reborn” each time he woke after an operation. Following 88 days in the hospital, Reis was released and felt ready to change his ways. Lately, he says he just wants to cheer people up by making bubbles. You can watch him perform his bubble art for hours at a time around the city's streets and in its parks. Sometimes he puts out a glass container called a tip jar. People who watch his show can drop money into it if they want to. If the weather is good for bubbles, Reis makes a special mixture that can make bubbles the size of a small car. Humidity, or the amount of water in the air, is good for bubbles. So, he does not perform on very dry days. To make his large bubble, he puts a small rope hanging from two long sticks into the bubble mixture. As he removes it, he opens his arms wide and the bubbles begin to form. Once enough air is inside the bubble, he moves his arms back together to set the bubble free. Some people feel it looks like a bubble “ballet”． While Reis may seem like a bubble-making expert, he only got started in April 2020. Reis can support himself with donations from the audiences. But money is not what stirs him to make bubbles. He feels his art is useful in more important ways. Not long ago, a woman told Reis after a performance that his bubbles had lifted her spirit when her dad died. Reis can see smiles rise from under the face covers worn by those watching him perform. Children cheer and clap their hands. Reis said such reactions make him feel like an essential worker whose job is to spread joy. “I'm just trying to put a smile on somebody's face by doing some bubbles，” said Reis. Such a small act will be remembered by others and warm others. 语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Kurth Reis因为摩托车事故受伤住院，经历多次手术后，决定改变自己的生活，他开始在城市街头或公园里表演制造泡泡的艺术，让人们高兴起来。 1．What can we know about Kurth Reis from Paragraph 1? A．He had to repay his operation fees. B．He intended to do something different. C．He suffered a minor motorcycle accident. D．He gave up his career as a motorcyclist. 答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中“Following 88 days in the hospital, Reis was released and felt ready to change his ways.”可知，Kurth Reis打算做一些不同的事情。故选B项。 2．What may people do when they watch Reis' performances? A．Put some money into a tip jar near him. B．Give him applause when he sets a bubble free. C．Grasp a small rope hanging from two long sticks. D．Add a special mixture to help him make large bubbles. 答案：A 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中“Sometimes he puts out a glass... want to.”可知，观看Reis表演的人可能会往他旁边的小费罐里放些钱。故选A项。 3．What does the underlined word “stirs” mean in Paragraph 4? A．Enables.　　　　 B．Determines. C．Requires. D．Encourages. 答案：D 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词前文的内容“Reis can support himself with donations from the audiences.”和后文的内容“He feels his art is useful in more important ways.”可知，Reis依靠观众给的捐款能够维生，但是他认为自己的表演有更重要的地方。由此推知，钱并不是促使他去进行吹泡泡表演的原因，故画线词stirs与D项encourages“鼓励，刺激”意思相近。故选D项。 4．What can you learn from the passage? A．Believe you can and you are halfway there. B．Every dog has its day. C．Everything comes to him who waits. D．Small actions can have a big impact. 答案：D 解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Such a small act will be remembered by others and warm others.”可知，文章通过讲述了Kurth Reis的故事，他因为摩托车事故受伤住院，经历多次手术后，决定改变自己的生活，通过在城市街头或公园里表演制造泡泡的艺术，他传播了快乐，让人们高兴起来。由此可知，Reis的小举动产生了真实的、巨大的影响。故选D项。 B (2024·湖南部分校联考高二上期中) Acting as an art form has changed a great deal over the centuries. It's no longer just about entertaining an audience in a stylised way to depict (刻画) characters and events that everyone is familiar with. Nowadays, acting has moved into a world of hyper realism. Audiences often expect to be challenged by a performance, and acting asks sometimes difficult questions about the world around us. Given this change in emphasis, what kind of toll (损害) might acting take on somebody's well-being? The idea that there is a psychological price to pay for good acting is nothing new, yet there is surprisingly little scientific research that examines the issue. Many scientists have been unwilling to examine the relationship in depth. This is changing, however, with academics now starting to investigate_it_further. Actors often agree that performing can come with risks. Deborah Margolin, an award-winning actor, found the line between her stage self and her real personality started to blur (变模糊) the deeper into the character she went. She felt a real emotional impact especially when she played difficult or unpleasant roles. Margolin explains, “It was depressing...my character would cry, and I would cry.” She recalls the impact on her fellow actors: “Everybody backed away from me. These were lovely people—I loved them dearly—but my character was unattractive and somehow, so was I．” These feelings are easy to understand, and would seem to be a natural outcome of acting styles such as “method acting”， which encourages actors to use their real-life experiences to fuel a role. There are some, however, who disagree. Actor Sanford Meisner felt that an actor's most important tool is their imagination and that psychology has no place in performance. In fact, many performers mix these different methods and keep in touch with family to reconnect with the person beyond their character. There's no doubt that walking a tightrope between personalities can be a difficult task, however. As drama student Naomi Lorrain explains, “It can be hard.
