WELCOME UNIT Unit 2 Understanding each other Section Ⅳ Extended reading & Project 课前预习自检 重点合作探究 课堂效果检测 目录 CONTENTS 1 2 ３ 4 课后课时作业 课前预习自检 Borrowed words 外来词 “The restaurant's fried tofu is delicious.” “这家餐厅的炸豆腐真美味。” Is there anything special about this sentence? 这句话有什么特别之处吗？ Well, all the words except “the” and “is” are borrowed from other languages! 好吧，除了“the”和“is”之外，所有的单词都是从其他语言中借来的！ 课前预习自检 This comes as no surprise, given that English has borrowed words from more than 300 different languages, including Latin, Greek, French and Chinese. 这并不奇怪，鉴于英语有300多种不同语言的外来词，包括拉丁语、希腊语、法语和汉语。 However, English is not alone in borrowing words from other languages—borrowed words can be found in almost all languages. 然而，英语并不是唯一一种从其他语言借用词汇的语言——几乎所有语言中都可以找到外来词。 课前预习自检 For example, English words that are borrowed into the Chinese language include “bacon”， “tank” and “golf”． 例如，被借用到汉语中的英语词汇包括“培根(bacon)”“坦克(tank)”和“高尔夫(golf)”。 课前预习自检 ①______ n. 豆腐 ②_______ n. 咸猪肉，熏猪肉 ③______ n. 坦克；(贮放液体或气体的)罐 ④______ n. 高尔夫球运动 tofu bacon tank golf 课前预习自检 Word borrowing comes about when two cultures with different languages interact. 当不同语言的两种文化互动时，就会出现词语借用。 This tends to happen when there is no suitable word for an object or idea in the native tongue. 这种情况往往发生在当母语中没有合适的词来表达某个物体或某种想法时。 This phenomenon has been occurring for thousands of years. 这一现象已经延续数千年。 课前预习自检 In the current age of globalization, when communications technology brings different cultures closer together, words are even more likely to be borrowed straight from the source language at a faster pace than ever before, especially those related to technological developments, such as “email” and “Internet”． 在如今的全球化时代中，当通讯技术使得不同文化更加紧密地联系在一起时，词汇甚至更有可能会以前所未有的速度直接从源语言中被借用，特别是那些与技术发展相关的词汇，如“电子邮件(email)”和“互联网(Internet)”。 课前预习自检 •Though borrowing words has become faster, the process is still complex, and it takes time before new words are integrated into everyday speech. 尽管借词已变得更快，但是过程仍然复杂，新词需要一段时间才能融入日常用语中。 ⑤ __________ vt.& vi. (使)合并；(使)加入 ⑥though 引导___________从句；before 引导___________从句。 integrate 让步状语 时间状语 课前预习自检 At first, the borrowed word is only used by bilingual speakers. 起初，外来词只被双语者所使用。 •It then spreads to people who do not know the original language, and they will change the pronunciation to fit the way they speak, almost unknowingly. 然后它会传播给不懂源语言的人，并且他们会在几乎不知不觉中改变发音，使之适应自己的说话方式。 An example of this is the word “kung fu”， which refers to Chinese martial arts. 这一过程的一个例子就是“功夫”这个词，它指的是中国武术。 课前预习自检 This word comes from Chinese gongfu. 这个词来自汉语词汇“功夫”。 Over time, the sounds that are difficult to pronounce have been replaced with more familiar ones. 随着时间的推移，难以发音的部分被更为熟悉的发音所取代了。 •The longer a borrowed word has been in use, the more it sounds and even looks like the native language. 一个外来词使用的时间越长，它听起来甚至看起来就越像本土语言。 课前预习自检 ⑦__________ adj. 会说两种语言的；用两种语言(写)的 ⑧_________ n. 功夫 ⑨who引导的_______从句，修饰前面的people; they speak 是the way的_______从句，省略了关系词______________。 ⑩the longer ..., the more ... 是“the＋比较级 ..., the＋比较级 ...”结构，意为“____________________”。 bilingual kung fu 定语 定语 that/in which 越……，就越…… 课前预习自检 Borrowed words are an outcome of language development that can hardly be avoided, but some language communities oppose adopting words from other cultures. 虽然外来词是语言发展几乎难以避免的结果，但是一些语言群体反对从其他文化中吸收词汇。 There are countries that make interventions to keep their native language pure in order to defend their identity. 有些国家采取干预措施，以保持自己母语的纯正，以捍卫其身份。 课前预习自检 The French specifically have an official organization that creates new words in order to avoid borrowed words. 法国人专门有一个创造新词的官方组织，以避免外来词。 Some languages have an extremely small number of speakers, such as the Native American Navajo language, used only by the members of the tribe. 有些语言的使用者数量非常少，例如美洲土著纳瓦霍语，只有这个部落的成员使用。 Under this circumstance, it becomes a matter of survival for the native language to reject outside influences. 在这种情况下，拒绝外来影响关系着母语的生存问题。 课前预习自检 ⑪________ vt. 反对，抵制；与……对垒 ⑫_____________ n. 干涉行为，干预 ⑬______ adj. 纯净的；完全的 ⑭_______ n. 部落 ⑮_______ vt. 拒绝接受，不予考虑；不录用；排斥，排异 oppose intervention pure tribe reject 课前预习自检 While some communities are pessimistic about the exchange between languages, there are also other communities that readily welcome borrowed words. 尽管有些群体对语言之间的互借感到悲观，但是也有其他群体对外来词持欣然欢迎的态度。 English, especially, is based on a mix of Latin, Greek and Germanic languages. 尤其是英语，它是基于拉丁语、希腊语和日耳曼语的混合体。 The English-speaking community does not hesitate about absorbing foreign words into its daily vocabulary. 讲英语的群体毫不犹豫地将外来词吸收到自己的日常词汇中。 课前预习自检 In fact, there have never been any formal academic restrictions on new borrowed words. 事实上，他们对新的外来词从来没有任何正式的学术限制。 ⑯___________ adj. 悲观的，悲观主义的 ⑰__________ adj. 日耳曼语的；德国的 pessimistic Germanic 课前预习自检 •Borrowing words allows the language to continue to develop, enabling the community to have a more efficient language which makes it possible for them to share their experiences with new-found ease. 外来词使语言得以继续发展，使得其群体拥有一种更为有效的语言，让他们能够以新发现的轻松方式分享他们的经历。 •It is also through those words that novel ideas are spread and different beliefs are exchanged more conveniently and quickly. 也正是通过那些词，新思想的传播、不同观点的交流得以更加便捷。 课前预习自检 ⑱现在分词短语enabling ... 作_______状语；which引导_______从句。 ⑲it is ... that ... 是强调句型，在句中强调_____________________。 结果 定语 through those words 课前预习自检 According to the linguist Edward Sapir, “It would be difficult to point to a completely isolated language ...” 语言学家爱德华·萨丕尔认为：“很难指出一种完全孤立的语言……” For better or for worse, the tendency to borrow words has never gone out of style. 不管是好是坏，借用外来词的趋势从未过时。 The more international and globalized the world becomes, the more language characteristics will be shared between nations and cultures. 世界越是变得国际化和全球化，不同民族和文化之间就会越共享更多语言特征。 课前预习自检 _________ n. 语言学家；通晓数国语言的人 __________ n. 趋势，趋向；倾向，偏好 linguist tendency 2021 课前预习自检 重点合作探究 1 oppose vt. 反对，抵制；与……对垒(教材P25) 归纳拓展 情景助记 重点合作探究 ①Most of the students oppose having classes on Sunday. 大部分学生反对星期天上课。 ②We oppose ourselves counting on a lucky chance. 我们反对单纯去碰运气。 ③I am opposed to going shopping with others. 我反对与其他人一起外出购物。 ④She miscalculated the level of opposition to her proposals. 她没想到她的建议会受到这样强烈的反对。 重点合作探究 (1)单句语法填空 ①The proposals have aroused the __________ (oppose) of teachers. ②Many old men are opposed to ________ (cut) down the 100-year-old tree for rebuilding a shopping center.

People need new words for new ideas and new inventionsW1. Different words come into use, or older words are used in a new way. English can change by borrowing words from other languages. For example, the word “tomato” was borrowed from Mexico and “tea” came from China. New words are formed W2 by putting two words together sometimes. “countryside” and “earthquake” are made up of P two parts. Sometimes new words are shorter forms of older words. 课后课时作业 46 As we know, the word “photo” was made from “photograph” by cutting off the end of the longer word. “plane” was made by cutting off the front part of “airplane”. The names of people and products (产品) can become new words, too. Our “sandwich” was named after a man called Sandwich and “sellotape”(透明胶带) was a name given by the company that first made the product. 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几种新单词的构成法。 课后课时作业 47 1．New English words are needed because ________． A．people use old words in a new way B．people need a new way to explain things C．the old words are not enough D．new ideas and new inventions appear all the time 答案： D　细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“People need new words for new ideas and new inventions.”可知，人们需要新的英语单词是因为新思想和新发明一直出现，人们需要新的单词去表达它们。故选D。 课后课时作业 48 2．Which of the following words was taken to England from another country? A．Plane. B．Sandwich. C．Tomato. D．Countryside. 答案： C　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“For example, the word ‘tomato’ was borrowed from Mexico”可知，tomato一词是来自墨西哥。故选C。 课后课时作业 49 3．Which of the following words came from China? A．Tea. B．Earthquake. C．Airplane. D．Sellotape. 答案： A　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“‘tea’ came from China”可知，tea一词来自中国。故选A。 课后课时作业 50 4．How many ways of developing English words does the passage tell us? A．Three. B．Four. C．Five. D．Six. 答案： B　推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，主要介绍了以下几种构词的方法：“English can change by borrowing words from other languages.”；“New words are formed by putting two words together sometimes.”；“Sometimes new words are shorter forms of older words.”；以及“The names of people and products (产品) can become new words, too.”可推知，一共四种方法。故选B。 课后课时作业 51 W重点单词 1．invention n. _______ 2.form v. _____________ P重点短语 be made up of ______________ 发明 形成，构成 由……组成 课后课时作业 52 Ⅱ　七选五 Everyone's different. We all have different parents, different upbringings and different values. However, we also need to be around and work with other people to function in society. __1__． Active Listening Although speaking is the first action that comes to mind when one hears the word “communication”， it's actually just half of the equation. Equally important is listening. Rather than passively listening and just letting information flow at you, listen actively. 课后课时作业 53 __2__. When you do interrupt, do so at a pause and only to paraphrase (释义) to clarify what the person is saying. Body Language Keep your body open. Don't cross your arms or legs, but keep both outstretched, indicating receptiveness. Empathy (共鸣) and Personal Responsibility Show empathy and take responsibility. __3__. One of the best ways to do the former is to use the paraphrasing strategy mentioned above. Taking responsibility relies on one word: “I”. Never use “you” when discussing something negative. 课后课时作业 54 __4__ You need to use enough words to get your point across. You also need to save time so that your point isn't lost or muddled in a sea of unnecessary words. Clarity is so important in effectively communicating that it deserves its own section. Comfort __5__， don't try to find out the cause of or a solution to the anger until he has calmed down. People usually just need to be heard out when they're angry, so let them talk, only speaking to give comfort. A resolution can be pursued later. 课后课时作业 55 A．Clarity B．Effective communication C．If someone is angry D．Although his message is the same E．The key to bridging this gap is effective communication F．Relax your body, maintain eye contact and keep interruptions to a minimum G．The person you're speaking to needs to feel that you understand what he means 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何与他人相处提出了一些 建议。 课后课时作业 56 1．E　上文提到然而，我们也需要与他人相处，与他人合作，才能在社会中发挥作用。下文开始提建议可知，设空处为承上启下句。E项既指出上文“我们需要与人相处”，又引出下文的“有效沟通方式”。故选E。 2．F　下文提到如果你真的要打断别人的话，请在停顿的时候打断，并且只是为了解释清楚对方所说的话。由此可知，设空处建议最好不打断。F项符合语境。故选F。 3．G　根据上文“Show empathy and take responsibility.”可知，本段希望你能有同理心和责任心。所谓同理心，就是指能站在对方的角度去理解对方。G项正是对上文内容的延伸。故选G。 课后课时作业 57 4．A　设空处为本段小标题。本段第一句“You need to use enough words to get your point across.”提到阐述自己的观点；以及“Clarity is so important in effectively communicating that it deserves its own section.”提到要表达清楚。A项 (清楚)总结段落。故选A。 5．C　根据设空后“don't try to find out the cause of or a solution to the anger until he has calmed down(在他平静下来之前，不要试图找出他生气的原因或解决办法)”可知，设空处和生气相关。C项内容和生气相关。故选C。 课后课时作业 58 Ⅲ　语法填空 The Singing Sand Mountains are situated in Dunhuang in western China. As one of the coolest natural phenomena on __1__ planet, the dunes sound as if they are singing to you as you slide down them. __2__ (locate) between the tall dunes, there is a little miracle. This spring, __3__ looks like a moon, has been there for thousands of years and has never dried up. The spring, even with the shifting sand, __4__ (remain) blue year­round. Climbing to the top of the dunes is hard work, but worth it. Rent a pair of bright­orange shoe protectors or just shake your __5__ (shoe) out later as most people do. 课后课时作业 59 A wooden walkway is half buried in the sand so you can get a proper footing on the deep sand. The dunes are a tourist __6__ (attract), with dune cars, dune surfing, and helicopter flights. However, __7__ (appreciate) the sandy scene in peace is not hard to hike away. The dunes look most attractive either in the morning __8__ towards dusk. The drive down the dunes is also __9__ (surprise) as the large mountains of sand __10__ (sudden) appear at the end of the road. 课后课时作业 60 1．________　2.________　3.________　4.________　5．________　 6.________　7.________　8.________　9．________　10.________ 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了位于敦煌的鸣沙山和月牙泉。 课后课时作业 61 1．the　考查冠词。句中planet特指独一无二的地球，用定冠词the限定。故填the。 2．Located　考查非谓语动词。locate与其逻辑主语miracle是被动关系，应用过去分词作状语；句首单词首字母大写。故填Located。 3．which　考查定语从句的引导词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句，解释说明先行词spring，指物，在从句中作主语。故填which。 课后课时作业 62 4．remains　考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意：即使有流沙，泉水全年都是蓝色的。remain与主语The spring是主动关系；根据句意，描写长期状态，应使用一般现在时；主语The spring是单数名词。故填remains。 5．shoes　考查名词。句意：租一双亮橙色的鞋套，或者像大多数人一样，把鞋子抖出来。根据句意和常识可知，每个人的鞋子都是两只，用复数。故填shoes。 6．attraction　考查词性转换。tourist attraction是固定短语，意为“旅游景 点”；根据设空前冠词a可知，应用单数。故填attraction。 课后课时作业 63 7．appreciating　考查非谓语动词。此处用动名词作主语。故填appreciating。 8．or　考查连词。either ... or ... “要么……要么……；或者……或者……”。故填or。 9．surprising　考查词性转换。句意：沿着沙丘向下行驶的过程也令人惊奇，因为在路的尽头突然出现了巨大的沙丘。应用­ing形容词描述主语The drive的特性。故填surprising。 10．suddenly　考查词性转换。用副词修饰动词appear。故填suddenly。 课后课时作业 64 Ⅳ　读后续写 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 One young academically excellent person went to apply for a managerial position in a big company. He passed the first interview and then the director did the last interview to make the last decision. The director discovered from the CV that the youth's academic achievements were excellent all the way, from the secondary school until the postgraduate research. Never did he have a year when he did not score. 课后课时作业 65 The director asked, “Did you obtain any scholarships in school？” The youth answered, “None.” The director asked, “Was it your father who paid for your school fees？” The youth answered, “My father passed away when I was one year old, so it was my mother who paid for all my school fees.” The director asked, “What did your mother do？” The youth answered, “My mother worked as a clothes cleaner.” The director requested the youth to show his hands. The youth showed a pair of hands that were smooth and perfect. 课后课时作业 66 The director asked, “Have you ever helped your mother wash the clothes before？” The youth answered, “Never. My mother always wanted me to study and read more books. Furthermore, my mother can wash clothes faster than me.” The director said, “I have a request. When you go back today, go and clean your mother's hands, and then see me back here tomorrow morning.” 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 课后课时作业 67 Feeling his high chance of landing the job, when he went back home, the youth happily requested his mother to let him clean her hands.﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍ The director noticed the tears in the youth's eyes and asked, “What have you done and learned, young man？”﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍ 课后课时作业 68 写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。一位成绩出色的大学毕业生去应聘，面试者要求年轻人回家给母亲洗手。年轻人看到母亲经常洗衣的手后是什么反应？年轻人从给母亲洗手中收获了什么？ 课后课时作业 69 [精彩范文] Feeling his high chance of landing the job, when he went back home, the youth happily requested his mother to let him clean her hands. His mother felt strange but with mixed feelings, she showed her hands to the kid. It was the first time he had noticed that there were so many bruises in her hands. His tears fell as he cleaned her hands. This was the first time he had realized that it was the bruises in the mother's hands that were the price that the mother had to pay for his graduation, academic excellence and his future. After finishing the cleaning of his mother's hands, the youth quietly washed all the remaining clothes for his mother. That night, mother and son talked for a very long time. The next morning, the youth went to the director's office. 课后课时作业 70 The director noticed the tears in the youth's eyes and asked, “What have you done and learned, young man？” The youth answered, “I cleaned my mother's hand, and also finished cleaning all the remaining clothes.” The director nodded, “Please tell me your feelings.” The youth said, “Firstly, I know now what appreciation is. Without my mother, there would not be the successful me today. Additionally, by working together and helping my mother, I now realize how difficult and tough it is to get something done. Ultimately, I have learned to appreciate the importance and value of family relationship.” The director smiled, “This is what I am looking for to be my manager. You are hired. Congratulations！” 课后课时作业 71 R $$
