Unit 2 Lessons in life 英课时 Unit 2 语作业 1 Starting out 主题阅读 I.阅读理解 A We are enrolled in the full-time school called“life”.Every day in this school,we have opportunities to learn new lessons.No matter whether we like these lessons or not,we have to take them,because they are our lessons. Why are we here in this world?What is the purpose of life?Humans have tried to discover the meaning of life for thou- sands of years,but failed to get the an- swer,because the meaning of life is dif- ferent from person to person. Each one of us has his or her special purpose and path,unique and different. As we travel on our life path,we will learn many great lessons in order to fulfill that purpose.Learning our lessons well is the key to discovering the real meaning of our own life. As we travel through our lifetime, we may be taught hard lessons that oth- ers don't have to face,while others spend years struggling with problems we don't need to deal with.We may never know why we love English,not physics,which indicates that our path is different.While traveling on our own path,sometimes a- lone,we should,first of all,take a basic lesson in openness. Openness means being receptive.Life will present us with so many lessons, none of which are useful to us unless we ·18 课时作业 essons in life Understanding ideas(I) 纠错空间 can recognize them and are open to their values.These lessons are not easy to learn,but we should regard them as gifts.But how can we recognize these les- sons?It is a matter of what“glasses”we are wearing at the time.It is not difficult to spot them if we take them as opportu- nities.So when we are not open to learn- ing our lessons,failing a weekly English test might be like a disaster rather than an opportunity to us.Of course,the hard lessons may not be fun,but they can ac- tually be the biggest gifts we receive from life. 方法总结 1.The author may be in favor of the view- +卡十量击于。年年e point that all men are born A.equal B.different C.to learn lessons D.ready for challenge 2.The example of "we love English,not physics"is mentioned to show that we A.choose our own path in life B.need to face some hard lessons C.discover the meaning of our own life D.realize the necessity of openness 3.Whether we can see life lessons as gifts depends upon our A.angles of view B.common value system C.experiences from life D.willingness to face challenge E英语(wv) 4. What would be the best title for the passage? A.Life and Lesson 纠错空间 B.Life as School C.Life School and Students D.Gifts from Life B My challenge for you is this:to read a book for 15 minutes every single day for a month. Let me explain a bit,by telling you where the challenge came from.I have many things in common with my dad,like music taste and sense of humor,but sadly reading isn't one of them.I can happily spend a whole day with a book,but my 。。。。。。。。。。。。。 dad can't read a book for longer than about 5 minutes.He reads emails,web- 方法总结 sites and papers for work,but not books. He's busy,so I think sitting down to read for just 15 minutes a day is a good way to relax and to introduce him to reading. My dad is not the only person who avoids books.I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV.Everyone is different and has their own interests,but I think there are lots of benefits to reading,which screen- based activities don't have. Firstly,it's better for your eyes. Looking at screens can be very stressful for your eye muscles,and clearly you should avoid looking at screens for an hour before bed,to get a good night's sleep. One thing I personally love reading, is being transported to another world-I often forget the time or things around ·18 选择性必修第四册 me!Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed,because you think more about the world of the book,rather than the real world,so you can truly re- lax.I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show, but I think books do it better. I also enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what they think. Reading gives me the chance to get to know hundreds of new people!It also teaches you to see things from other people's point of view,and understand other people's decisions or opinions.With a book,you can hear everything a charac- ter is thinking or feeling-you really can be inside someone else's head! So give it a go!Take 15 minutes when you are waking up,going to bed, eating lunch,or having a coffee.If you read a lot,why not try 15 minutes of an English book,or pass the challenge on to someone else?Good luck,and happy reading! 5.The author mentions his father in the text to show A.his father is busy B.reading is important C.his father likes reading D.many people have no habit of read- ing 6.The author writes the text mainly ba- sing on A.his personal experience B.some scientific experiments C.his father's personal advice D.knowledge from books Unit 2 Lessons in life 7.The underlined word“it”in Paragraph 5 refers to A.helping readers sleep well B.making readers feel relaxed C.transporting readers to a different world D.reminding readers of the real world 8.What is the author's attitude to read- ing? A.Negative. B.Uncertain. C.Supportive. D.Doubtful. Ⅱ.阅读七选五 Life Lessons Life is not easy when you are pursu- ing something worthwhile and ready to learn from the best experiences. 1 Here are some life lessons which people will learn the hard way in majority of ca- ses. It takes consistent time and effort to be successful in any area.However,peo- ple usually get discouraged when it takes more time than they thought it would.At this time,people refer only to people who have already achieved what you want to be,which most people fail to do.Look at any successful person and you'll notice one thing common in all of them.They took time to learn and mastered their skills like no one else.2 Be brave to take the road less travelled.In our whole life,we always want to follow the same path that every- one suggests,do the same things every- one does,take the same career path eve- ryone takes,wear the same clothes every- one wears,and hang out with the same people we work with. ·18 课时作业乡 3 But when you get bored of life,you will realize that you are not 空 间 meant to do what everyone does and that your destiny is different from anyone 纠错空间 else's out there in the world.But the price you pay to realize this is high because it takes a great amount of courage to follow your own path. You don't have to live your life in a way society wants you to.4 Parents sometimes force their children to select a career they don't want because other chil- s4t4t444t444 dren have selected that career.Worst of all,people follow them without even ask- ing.There is no harm in old rituals and beliefs but when you pursue then before your interest,sooner or later you'll realize that you should first do what you think is right. 方法总结 5 However,if you are smart enough to learn early and wish not to +卡十量击于。年年年e waste your precious time learning them the hard way,learn them now and apply it to your life. A.You have to break the rules some- times. B.After all life lessons are always learned the hard way. C.There is no elevator to success;you have to take the stairs. D.The reason why we follow others is ................... that we are scared to fail. E.It always takes tests and then fails us -+4-444 to learn anything worthwhile. F.The general rule goes that the harder you try,the greater results you get. G.Many old beliefs are being performed these days and are followed blindly. 44英语(WY)·选择性必修第四册 For example,I love singing so I had a good laugh wa- ving my arms in order to my local choir(合唱 团).可知，志愿工作可以成为一个爱好。故选A。] 9.D[考查动词词义辨析。句意：例如，我喜欢唱歌，所以 我开怀大笑地挥舞着手臂来指挥我的地方合唱团。 A.greet欢迎；B.control控制，C.organize组织；D.con- duct指挥。根据上文的I had a good laugh waving my arms以及后面的my local choir(合唱团)可知，我应该 是挥舞着胳膊指挥当地的合唱团。故选D。] 10.C[考查形容词词义辨析。句意：为一项事业寻找乐 队和筹集资金真的很有意义。A.powerful强大的，强 有力的；B.hopeful有希望的；C.meaningful有意义的； D.successful成功的。根据常识可知，为一项事业寻找 乐队和筹集资金是很有意义的。故选C。] 11.B[考查名词词义辨析。句意：做志愿者确实让你感 觉很好，也有其他的好处。A.adventures冒险；B.ad vantages优势，好处；C.factors因素；D.achievements成 就。根据下文列举的个人经历可知，当志愿者还有其 他的好处。故选B。] 12.A[考查名词词义辩析。句意：我曾经在一个慈善体 育赛事中当过志愿者，组织者慷慨地给了我一个昂贵 的伦敦面包店的纸杯蛋糕，以感谢我的服务。A.serv ices服务；B.patience耐心；C.determination决心； D.choices选择。根据上文I once volunteered as a steward(千事)at a charity sports event可知，组织者 给作者杯形蛋糕是为了感谢我的服务。故选A。] 13.D[考查动词词义辨析。句意：还在一家慈善商店做 志愿者，所以我找到了很多又好又便宜的衣服来更新 我的衣柜。A.decorate装饰；B.replace代替；C.beauti-- fy美化；D.update更新。根据空前I found loads of nice cheap clothes可知，我在慈善商店找到许多漂亮、便宜 的衣服来更新自己的衣柜。故选D。」 14.A[考查动词词义辨析。句意：虽然这一切都很有趣， 但是志愿活动中我最喜欢的方面是创造和分享故事。 A.creating创造；B.imagining想象；C.choosing选择； D.completing完成。根据下文My terrible, at farming has given me funny stories to tell!可知，但对 于志愿工作，我最喜欢的方面是创造并分享故事。故 选A。] 15.C[考查名词词义辨析。句意：我糟糕的农场尝试，让 我有了有趣的故事可讲！A.offence过错；B.shame羞 耻；C.attempt尝试；D.annoyance烦恼。根据上文It was the first time for me to work on a farm.可知，此处 指“我糟糕的农场尝试”。故选C。] V.[参考范文] What she did was quite opposite.She was so kind, friendly and calm.She spoke of their great pleasure in sha- ring backyard,and of the necessity of monitoring our children's behavior.She told her children we were all their guests and that we should be respected and given special treatment;otherwise,as hosts,they were to blame.After that,these children got along well as before.The kids were immediately brought home but the next day they were wel- comed to play. ·3 Honestly,I owed my thanks to the neighbor.Small as her actions may seem,they were big in our eyes.The neighbor not only let all the children keep happy but also taught me an unforgettable lesson in dealing with relation- ships.From her,I learned some good skills in getting along with others.Small and kind actions can bring warmth to people.We should pass them on to our children and grand- children.
