The English have a difficult and,generally speaking,dysfunctional (relationship with
clothes.Their main problem is that they have a desperate need for rules,and are unable to get along
without them.This helps to explain why they have an international reputation for dressing in general
very badly,but with specific areas of excellence,such as high-class men's suits,ceremonial
costumes,and innovative (street fashion.In other words,we English dress best when we
are“in uniform”.
You may be surprised that I am including "innovative street fashion"in the category of the
uniform.Surely the parrot-haired punks(朋克摇滚乐迷)or the Victorian vampire goths are being
original,not following rules?It's true that they all look different and eccentric (but in fact
they all look eccentric exactly in the same way.They are wearing a uniform.The only truly eccentric
dresser in this country is the Queen,who pays no attention to fashion and continues to wear what
she likes,a kind of 1950s fashion,with no regard for anyone else's opinion.However,it is true that
the styles invented by young English people are much more eccentric than any other nation's street
fashion.We may not be individually eccentric,apart from the Queen,but we have a sort of collective
eccentricity,and we appreciate originality in dress even if we do not individually have it.
59
Another "rule"of behaviour I had discovered was that it is very important for the English not to
take themselves too seriously,to be able to laugh at themselves.However,it is well known that
most teenagers tend to take themselves a bit too seriously.
The goths,in their scary black costumes,certainly look as if they are taking themselves
seriously.But when I got into conversation with them,I discovered that they too had a sense of
humour.I was once chatting to a goth in the full vampire costume-with a white face,deep purple
lipstick,and black parrot-hair.I saw he was also wearing a T-shirt with "Goth"."Why are you
wearing that?”I asked.“In case you don't realize I''m a goth,”he answered,pretending to be
serious.We both burst out laughing.
1.What can we know about the English people?
A.They need rules to dress well.
B.They are in need of uniforms.
C.They are creative in general.
D.They lead the world trend.
2.Who is individually eccentric in dressing?
A.A high-class man.
B.A parrot-haired punk.
C.The Queen.
D.The fashion innovator.
3.Which of the following can best describe the goths?
A.They dress badly.
B.They are unable to laugh at the way they dress.
C.They have a sense of humour.
D.They are less fashionable than the other English people.
4.What may be the best title for the text?
A.How the English Dress
B.How the English Admire Fashion
C.Why the English Like Uniforms
D.Why the English Are Eccentric in Dress

(语篇词数:387个,建议用时:7分钟)
In many countries of the world,people can confidently tell you the meaning of their town or
city,but most people who live in Manchester,Oxford or Birmingham would not be able to explain
what the name of their city means.The name of every British town or city,however,has a long
history.
Two thousand years ago,most people living in Britain were Celts.Even the word "Britain"is
Celtic(凯尔特语).Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called“castra”.
This is why there are so many place names in England which end in“-chester”or“-caster”,
Manchester,for example.
The Romans never reached Wales or Scotland,and many place names there are Celtic.For
example,Welsh place names that begin with“Llan”come from the Celtic word for“church”.
After the Romans left Britain,it was attacked by the Anglo-Saxons who were from the area of
Europe that is now Germany and Holland.The names of their villages often end in "-ham"or "
ton".Some get their names from the leader of the village.Birmingham for example,means
“Beormund's village'”.
The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them,so we have
蕊
villages called Upton(village on a hill)-a good place to build a village and Moreton("village by a
lake")where floods could make life hard.Place names that end in "-ford"(a place where you could
别
cross a river)also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.
烯
Finally,in 1066 England became Norman-the Normans gave us the place name "grange",which
means farm.
诊
And how about London?Experts cannot agree.The Romans called the city Londinium,but
they were not the first inhabitants().People once believed that the United Kingdom's capital
city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud,but this is very unlikely.Our best guess today
is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fast-flowing river.Like a number of British
place names,its history is lost in time.
1.According to the article,Stratford is most likely a town
A.on a hill
B.near a castle
C.beside a river
D.with a church
2.Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of the inhabitants in Britain?
A.The Celts-The Romans-The Normans-The Anglo-Saxons.
B.The Celts-The Romans-The Anglo-Saxons-The Normans.
C.The Romans-The Celts-The Anglo-Saxons-The Normans.
D.The Romans-The Anglo-Saxons-The Celts-The Normans.
3.What does London mean in Celtic?
A.River.
B.Londinium.
C.Lud.
D.Castle.动关系,因此用现在完成时的被动语态。
3.greatest考查形容词的最高级。根据前面的one of the..可
知,此处用形容词great的最高级,表示“最伟大的成就之一”。
4.largely考查副词。此处用large的副词形式修饰谓语动词
celebrate。
5.the考查冠词。根据上文的in the United States可知,此处
the country特指美国。
6.in考查介词。in one's own way意为“用某人自己的方式”。
7.them考查代词。此处用them作cut的宾语,指代前面提到
的cookies。
8.learning考查非谓语动词。consider后面接u.-ing形式,意
为“考虑做某事”。
9.to educate考查非谓语动词。本句话用It作形式主语,后面
用不定式作真正的主语。
l0.importance考查名词。根据前面的定冠词the可知,此处
用名词importance作understand的宾语。

1.individual;individually
2.puzzle;puzzled;puzzling
3.defence;defend;defender
4.legal;legally;illegal;illegally
5.surround;surrounding;surroundings;surrounded
6.evidence;evident;evidently
7.achievement;achieve;achieved;achiever
8.location;locate
9.announce;announcement;announcer
10.custom;customs;customer
二
1.achievement考查名词的用法。句意为“只有实现这些目标,
才能最终带来持久的和平”。根据“he十名词十of结构”可知,
此空需要填写一个名词,本课所学词汇中achievement表示“成
就”,符合题意,故填achievement。.
2.evident考查形容词的用法。句意为“他的足印清晰地印在
尘土中”。此空所填词语在系动词were之后,由副词clearly可
知此处应填名词evidence的形容词形式,故填evident。
3.surrounding考查非谓语动词的用法。句意为“他们沿着村
庄周围陡峭的悬崖往上爬”。前面一句话为完整的句式结构,因
此动词surround应该使用非谓语结构,又因为surround的逻辑
108无敌原创·同步课时卷英语·必修第二册
主语是cliff,因此为主动形式,填写surrounding。
4.philosopher考查名词的用法。句意为“孔子是我国伟大的
哲学和教育家”。根据and后面的“educator'”可知此处应填名
词,故填philosopher。
5.fascinating考查形容词的用法。句意为“一定要去参观令人
着迷的汽车博物馆”。修饰物应该使用现在分词,意为“令人着
迷的”,修饰本句中Motor Museum。
6.chiefs考查名词的用法。句意为“当其他部落的首领听到这
个消息时,他们都被感动了”。根据句意应填写名词的复数形
式,因此答案为chiefs。
7.puzzling考查形容词的用法。句意为“他的信提出了许多难
题”。空白处应填写修饰物的形容词,“令人感到迷惑的”为
puzzling。
8.defence考查名词的用法。句意为“免疫系统是我们抵御疾
病的主要防御系统”。单词main为形容词“主要的”,作定语修
饰名词,因此defend变为名词形式defence.。
9.location考查形容词的用法。句意为“我得找个方便的地方
放这些架子”。单词convenient为形容词“方便的”,作定语修饰
名词,因此locate变为名词形式location。
三、
l.keep your eyes open for句意为“你应该留心寻找解决这个
问题的有用线索”。根据句子结构,此处需要谓语。句子中的
should提示应使用动词原形,主语You提示应把one's改为一
致的your,故填写动词短语keep your eyes open for,
2.dates back to句意为“这个著名的风俗可以追溯到唐朝”。
根据句子结构,此处需要谓语;主语为custom,谓语动词用第三
人称单数。
3.as well as句意为“他们参观了一些工厂、医院和那所学
校”。根据句子结构,此处需要填并列连词。
4.are referred to句意为“在办公室工作的人经常被称为‘白
领”。根据句子结构,此处需要填谓语。
5.is joined to句意为“我们的房子和苏先生的房子相连”。根
据句子结构,此处需要谓语;又因为join的宾语提前作了主语,
因此谓语动词改为被动语态,填写is joined to。
6.belonging to句意为“许多属于中国的珍宝被侵略者带到
了国外”。根据句子结构,此处需要填写非谓语。were taken
为句子真正主语,belong to结构无被动形式,因此填写
belonging to.。
7.break away from句意为“他花了大量的勇气和时间才摆脱
了他的坏习惯”。根据句子结构,此处需要动词短语。
8.resulted in句意为“我们不知道是什么导致了他性格上的巨
大变化”。根据句子结构,此处从句需要谓语;“导致性格改变”
的行为已经发生,所以谓语动词要使用过去式。
四、
