Unit 2 Section Ⅳ Using Language & Assessing Your Progress-【创新教程】2025-2026学年高中英语选择性必修第四册五维课堂课时作业word（人教版）

Ⅰ.阅读理解 A Last month, my husband and I completed what some of our friends considered a foolish task：a 32­day, 5,232­mile camping trip with children in our van, without “high tech” to occupy the children. It was the screenless journey that showered me with doubts. But is “boredom” senseless? My friend Renee, who has driven cross­country with her three kids eight times, calls boredom the mother of creativity. She's not the only one that sees virtues of blank time. In a recently published paper, researchers at the University of East Anglia in England concluded that the trancelike (发呆的) state helps recharge the mind and is “central to learning and creativity”. I wasn't trying to make my kids smarter. Neither do I dislike high tech. But I understand too well the power of mini­screens to transform our kids into zombies (麻木迟钝的人)． On Day 1, our 7­year­old son announced “Texas is so boring！” The next day, struggling against his seat belt, he yelled he couldn't take any more of this. His 5­year­old sister was better at spending the long hours playing make­believe with the stuffed animals. On Day 3 he began to count mountains and see pandas and dolphins in distant clouds in the Texas sky. I often joined the kids in the back, where we did thumb wrestling. With well­known mountains ahead, my husband told the children the past legends of them. “Arizona is not as boring as Texas，” our son declared. I hope the trip gave kids some lazy, unstructured time to learn something about valuing the trip instead of looking for 　the fastest way　 to burn it up. I don't always make the right call as a parent but I know that in banning the small screens we made the right choice this time. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者和丈夫带着孩子们进行了一次长达32天、跨越5232英里且没有带任何电子产品的越野露营旅行。 1．Why did the author choose a screen­free journey? A．Her friends were highly against it. B．She disliked advanced technology. C．She feared the passive influence of mini­screens. D．The researchers proved the harm of modern technology. 解析：C　[细节理解题。根据第二段中的But I understand too well the power of mini­screens to transform our kids into zombies.可知，作者因为担心电子产品对孩子产生的消极影响，所以选择了一次不带高科技产品的旅行。故选C项。] 2．What happened to the author's family during the cross­country drive? A．Her son got worse. B．Her kids had a tough time riding in the vehicle. C．Her son relieved himself by watching animals outside. D．The time spent without screens strengthened the family bond. 解析：D　[推理判断题。根据第三段中的I often joined the kids in the back，where we did thumb wrestling.With well­known mountains ahead，my husband told the children the past legends of them.可知，作者和丈夫在这次不带任何电子产品的旅行中和孩子们度过了愉快的时光，由此可推知，这次旅行增进了一家人的感情。故选D项。] 3．What does the underlined part “the fastest way” in the last paragraph refer to? A．The speediest route to finish the journey. B．The ability to observe the surroundings. C．The interest in playing games with others. D．The choice of killing time by playing with digital devices. 解析：D　[词义猜测题。根据上下文可知，此处是说作者希望这次旅行能给孩子们一些慵懒的、自由的时间来学习如何珍惜这次旅行，而不是通过玩电子产品来打发它。故选D项。] 4．Which is the best title for the text?

In response to the spread of English and the increased multi­language trend arising from immigration, many countries have introduced language laws in the last decade. In some, the use of languages other than the national language is banned in public spaces such as advertising posters. One of the first such legal provisions(规定) was the 1994 “Toubon Law” in France, and the idea has been copied in many countries since then. Such efforts to govern language use are often considered 　futile　 by language experts, who are well aware of the difficulty in controlling the fashion in speech and know from research that language switching between bilinguals is a natural process. It is especially difficult for native speakers of English to understand the desire to maintain the “purity” of a language by law. Since the time of Shakespeare, English has been continually absorbing foreign words into its own language. English is one of the most mixed and rapidly changing languages in the world, but that has not been a barrier to acquiring superiority and power. Another reason for the failure of many native English speakers to understand the role of the state regulation is that it has never been the Anglo­Saxon way of doing things. English has never had a state­controlled authority for the language, similar, for example, to the Académie Francaise in France. The need to protect national languages is, for most western Europeans, a recent phenomenon—especially the need to ensure that English does not take over too many unnecessary fields. Public communication, education and new ways of communication promoted by technology, may be key fields to defend. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。全球化导致很多国家独特的语言文化受到了冲击和影响，很多国家都在采取措施来保护自己国家的语言文化。 1．Neville Alexander believes that　 　. A．mother­tongue education is not practised in all African countries B．globalisation has resulted in the economic failure of Africa C．globalisation has led to the rise of multi­language trend D．lack of mother­tongue education can lead to economic failure 解析：D　[推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的“One of the main reasons for economic failure in many African countries is the fact that，with a few important exceptions，mother­tongue education is not practised in any of the independent African states，”said Neville Alexander可知，内维尔·亚历山大认为母语教育的缺失会导致经济衰败。故选D项。] 2．What does the underlined word “futile” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean? A．Workable.　　　　　　 B．Practical. C．Useless. D．Unnecessary. 解析：C　[词义猜测题。根据画线词后的who are well aware of the difficulty in controlling the fashion in speech and know from research that language switching between bilinguals is a natural process 可判断，很多语言专家都认为前文所提到的为管理语言使用所付出的努力是无用的，因为这样的控制是没有什么效果的。故选C项。] 3．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A．English has taken over fields like public communication and education. B．Many aspects of national culture are threatened by the spread of English. C．Most language experts believe it is important to promote a national language. D．Europeans have long realised the need to protect a national language. 解析：B　[推理判断题。根据最后一段中的especially the need to ensure that English does not take over too many unnecessary fields(保证英语在非必要领域不要占据主导优势)可知，很多国家的语言文化都因为英语的普及而受到了冲击和影响。故选B项。] 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．Fighting Against the Rule of English B．Protecting Local Languages and Identity C．The Globalisation and Multilanguage Trend D．To Maintain the Purity of Language by Law 解析：B　[主旨大意题。根据文章第一段首句One of the main challenges faced by many countries is how to maintain their identity in the face of globalisation and the growing multilanguage trend. 可知，全球化导致很多国家独特的语言文化受到了冲击和影响，本文谈及的正是这方面的话题。故选B项。] Ⅱ.完形填空 Sending an urgent message in a bottle would not typically be considered a sensible strategy.
