维度四 融合教材·主题探究
【改编自北师大选必二U4】
Rowan Atkinson is an English actor, comedian and screenwriter. In Britain, Mr Atkinson is mostly famous for many successful TV shows but internationally we know him best as the awkward, clumsy, but always amusing Mr Bean. If you think that Rowan Atkinson is anything like his famous creation, then you are in for a surprise. On the contrary, he is nothing like Mr Bean.
Rowan was born on 6 January, 1955.He grew up on a farm with his parents and three older brothers. His father was very strict and did not believe in the value of television.
Rowan had a very successful academic career. At the age of 13, he was awarded a scholarship to a boarding school. Later, he studied at Newcastle University, where he attained the highest marks in his year. At Oxford, he obtained his master's degree in electrical engineering. This may explain why he loves fast cars, of which he has many.
When Rowan was young, he had a stutter and to make his speech clearer, he began to speak very carefully. This may be why some of his characters have unusual ways of speaking.
As early as primary school, Rowan had already shown a talent for acting, but it was only later at university that he decided to become an actor. A key event occurred one day in 1976 when he was playing around and pulling a face in the mirror. “I discovered my face,” he said later.
John Lloyd, who worked as a producer for BBC Television, says that one rarely meets someone with such genius, and that when he worked with Atkinson he became convinced that Rowan would be more famous than Charlie Chaplin.
1.When did Rowan decide to be an actor?
A. In 1955. B. At university.
C. As early as primary school. D. At the age of 13.

3.What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Rowan Atkinson is an American actor, comedian and screenwriter.
B. In Britain, Rowan Atkinson is mostly famous for the awkward, clumsy, but always amusing Mr Bean.
C. Rowan Atkinson is anything like Mr Bean.

What makes a sense of humour is a difficult thing to tell. Different people find different things funny, and what may seem hilarious to some will be highly rude to others. However, having some kind of sense of humour is important for reducing stress and getting along with others. Therefore, it's important to think about ways to improve your sense of humour.
Look for the funny side of situations. While it can be difficult at times to find the funny side in unfortunate events when you're having a bad day, try to think about how the situation might look like to other people, and attempt not to get too angry. Laughing over minor accidents, trips and falls will help you in preventing the loss of temper that you will regret later.
Learn some basic jokes. Some people find it hard to remember jokes, and feel left out when others are telling them. It's worth trying to learn a few jokes that you can pull out the bag when you need to, or regularly think about how you can turn a funny situation that occurs in daily life into an entertaining anecdote for later.
Look at joke or humour cards. There are many different kinds of funny cards available, which can be a great inspiration for finding ways to improve your sense of humour. Giving an appropriate funny card to friends and family on the right occasion will show that you have a good sense of humour and are thinking about them.
Learn from friends. Look at friends that you think have a great sense of humour. How do they deal with situations, and what kind of jokes do they make? Is there anything you can take away from their actions?
1.What does the underlined word “hilarious” in the first paragraph mean?
A. Extremely funny. B. Quite harmful.
C. Greatly meaningful. D. Quite useful.
2.How can you be humorous in tough times?
A. Search for the amusing part of situations.
B. Laugh over any accident.
C. Turn a funny situation into a joke.
D. Struggle not to lose your temper.
3.What should people do to learn some basic jokes?
A. Be active and learn from friends.
B. Be creative and get well prepared.
C. Be patient and listen to others carefully.
D. Be confident and have a good memory.

B
According to a recent study, laughter and joy may not be unique to humans. Ancestral forms of play and laughter existed in other animals long before they did in humans. Jaak Panksepp, a professor of psychobiology at Washington State University and the author of the study, says, “Human laughter has deep roots in our animal past.”
While humans are the only creatures that tell jokes, it has long been suspected that some animals like to laugh. In 1872, Charles Darwin pointed out that “very many kinds of monkeys, when pleased, make a sound, clearly analogous to our laughter”.In an experiment Panksepp had performed earlier, he found that when chimpanzees (黑猩猩) play, they make noises strikingly like human laughter, and that dogs have a similar response.
Panksepp notes that children who are too young to laugh at jokes are likely to laugh during noisy plays. Panksepp found that when young rats are playing, they also make sounds—they chirp (发唧唧声), although people can't hear them. These chirps are far too high for humans to hear. Researchers must use special electronic receivers that change the chirps to sounds that humans can hear.
In studying laughter, scientists have focused mostly on related issues—humour, personality, health benefits, social theory—rather than laughter itself. New research, however, shows that circuits (电路) for laughter exist in very ancient parts of the human brain. The ability to laugh appears early in childhood, as anyone who has seen a baby laugh knows.
Some scientists say that other mammals, just like humans, have many feelings.“The recognition by neuroscientists that the brain mechanisms (机制) causing pain, pleasure and fear are the same in humans and other mammals shows our similarity to other species and is extremely important,” said Tecumseh Fitch, a psychology lecturer at the University of St Andrews in Scotland.
5.What is the finding of the recent study?
A. Animals can also play jokes on others.
B. Animals can hardly express happiness.
C. Human laughter has its origin in animal sounds.
D. Humans actually developed from ancient animals.
6.What does the underlined word “analogous” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Similar. B. Special. C. Familiar. D. Important.
7.What can be learned about rats' chirps?
A. They are beyond human hearing range.
B. They sound like young kids' sounds.
C. They are made during rats' fighting.
D. They may affect human feelings.
8.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Mammals have a particularly sensitive brain area.
B. Humans have fully understood animals' behaviour.
C. People and animals share some emotional responses.
D. Rats' chirps and human laughter are basically the same.

7.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“These chirps are far too high ...to sounds that humans can hear.”可知,老鼠发出的唧唧声超出了人类的听觉范围。
8.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Some scientists say that other...‘The recognition...is extremely important’”可知,人和动物有一些共同的情感反应。

Ⅱ.七选五
[(2025·武汉部分重点中学期中)]Have you ever experienced the following situation: you just listened to a presentation and one hour later you don't remember anything? Many of us had this feeling. However, you don't need to worry about your short memory. This is how our brain works. 1. How to do this? There is no golden rule to make every speech memorable. But there is plenty of good advice to achieve the best results.
You don't want to speak in front of the audience unprepared. Unprepared presentations often result in speakers forgetting their key points, stumbling over their words, and frequently resorting to fillers like “alright”, “so”, “okay”, and “ehm”.2. So, once your slides are prepared, do a few dry runs. These rehearsals will help you refine your delivery.
Having good content to share is not enough. 3. Let's recall some bestseller fiction books. They have a story where all pieces are interconnected. The audience follows it and stays engaged till the end. The majority of the presentations can be turned into a story too. Structure your presentation like a story, with clear problems, solutions, and smooth transitions.
Clarity on the presentation's purpose is essential. The question “Why” is the core for all businesses.4. Tell your audience early why they have to listen to you. Engage them with the “Why”, guide them through your story, and conclude by answering the questions you've raised.
Public speaking is difficult. Most impressive talks become famous and inspire many people. But even the person who succeeded once can barely repeat the triumph.5. The only way to get better is through practice.
A.It has to be organized properly.
B.A convincing story is also important.
C.That should not hold you back though.
D.Knowing some strategies to maintain our memories is vital.
E.These words are present because the proper ones are missing.
F.The answer to it gives the reason for the presentation's existence.
G.It becomes a challenge for the speaker to leave an impression on the audience.

3.上文提到有好的内容分享是不够的,下文阐述了演讲要像故事一样组织。空处应进一步说明演讲还需要组织,强调组织的重要性。A项承上启下,符合语境。
4.上文强调了“为什么”这个问题是所有事情的核心,下文进一步强调了这一点,告诉读者要尽早告诉听众他们为什么要听你的演讲。空处应回应“为什么”的问题,并指出这个问题的答案对于演讲的重要性。F项承上启下,说明了回答“为什么”的重要性,符合语境。
5.上文提到即使是曾经成功的人也很难再次取得成功。空处应给出鼓励或建议。C项承接上文,鼓励读者不要因为困难而放弃,符合语境。

Ⅲ.完形填空
[(2025·东莞七校联考)]While I was riding a bike, I noticed a man about half a mile in front of me. He was traveling at a lower speed, so I decided to 1 him. I had about a mile to go on the road before turning off.
I started 2 faster and faster. And every block, I gradually closed the distance. Finally, I 3 him and passed him by. I felt like a 4 , while he seemed unaware that we were in a 5 .
After I passed him, I realised that I had been so 6 on competing against him that I had 7 my turn, had gone nearly six blocks past it and had to turn around.
Isn't that what 8 in life? We spend most of our time 9 with our neighbors, friends and family, trying to 10 them, or trying to outdo them—while there was never a competition in the first place.
We use most of our time and energy competing with others instead of 11 our destination, and we miss out on our own paths to our destinies 12 .
Unhealthy competition is a continuous process and a never-ending cycle. No matter what you do, someone will always be 13 you; someone with a better job, a nice car and more money.
Feel grateful for what life has offered you, stay concentrated on your 14 and live a healthy life. There's no 15 in destiny. Run your own race of life and wish others well!
