课时二 阅读技能训练
一、阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
(2014全国新高考1改编)
As more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational , Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations—UNESCO and National Geographic among them—have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.
Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Centre Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal.
Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.
At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials—including photographs, films, tape recordings, and field notes—which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.
Now, through the two organizations that he has founded—the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project—Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, for the world available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.
1. Many scholars are making efforts to ______.
A. promote global languages B. rescue disappearing languages
C. search for language communities D. set up language research organizations.
2. What does the underlined word “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to ?
A. Having full records of the languages
B. Writing books on language teaching.
C. Telling stories about language users
D. Living with the native speaker.
3. What is Turin’s book based on?
A. The cultural studies B. The documents available at Yale.
C. His language research in Bhutan. D. His personal experience in Nepal.
4. Which of the following best describes Turin’s work?
A. Write, sell and donate. B. Record, repair and reward.
C. Collect, protect and reconnect D. Design, experiment and report.
5. When scanning for specific information, what types of words do you look for first? Why? How can you avoid reading every word while scanning? Describe your process.
二、语篇结构。

On April 20, people around the world celebrated the United Nations Chinese Language Day. To mark the occasion, the UN Office organized the first Chinese Language Video Festival.
People from 27 countries took part in the one-hour special event. 6 Over 340 videos told touching stories about a civilized, modern and youthful China through their personal experiences in the country.
Though some people find the language difficult to learn, most find it's worth it. Learning Chinese gave them a better understanding of the culture. " 7 If you know this language, you know the culture and mind of the people."
8 Tones are important because a lot of Chinese characters sound similar or even the same. And the tone changes their meaning. It's the variety that sets Chinese apart from others.
To remember Chinese characters, you can connect them with pictures and make some short stories, 9 For example, the Chinese character for "tea" has some lines of grass, the roof of a house and people drinking tea.
Learning any language comes with benefits, particularly for those who are always looking to learn more. There are some languages that have "loan-words" from Chinese. 10
A. Learning Chinese is not just learning a language.
B. Language is the bridge that connects people everywhere.
C. There is no doubt that Chinese characters are beautiful.
D. Some people find imagination important when learning Chinese.
E. So it may be easier for one to pick them up after studying Chinese.

Book 1 Unit 5
课时三 写作技能训练—读后续写
一、写作指导:情节分析技巧
“读”是续写的基石。分析的目的不仅仅是读懂故事,更是要捕捉原文的伏笔、把握情节发展的内在逻辑和人物情感走向,从而确保续写部分与原文无缝衔接、自然流畅。
一、核心分析步骤与技巧(“五步分析法”)
第一步:抓取核心要素(Who, Where, What) 快速锁定故事的基本信息,为后续分析搭建舞台。
· 技巧: 迅速找出:
· 主人公 (Who): 主要人物是谁?他的性格、情绪状态如何?
· 场景 (Where): 故事发生在何时何地?环境氛围怎样?(是温馨的家、危险的森林,还是喧嚣的街道?)
· 核心事件 (What): 目前发生了什么?遇到了什么问题或冲突?
第二步:厘清情绪曲线(Emotional Arc) 人物的情绪是推动情节发展的内在动力。续写必须延续这种情绪变化。
· 技巧: 画出人物(尤其是主人公)的情绪变化线。问自己:
· 故事开头,他是什么心情?(如:开心、沮丧、害怕)
· 发生了什么事件导致情绪转折?(如:遇到困难、发现惊喜)
· 在“读”的结尾(即需要你续写的起点),他的情绪是什么?(这是续写的直接起点,至关重要!)
第三步:寻找伏笔与线索(Foreshadowing & Clues) 作者会在原文中刻意留下线索,这些是续写方向的“路标”。
· 技巧: 像侦探一样寻找:
· 关键物件: 一个戒指、一封旧信、一把钥匙等,都可能成为后续故事的关键。
· 人物对话: 对话中提到的某件事、某个愿望或威胁,可能就是后续情节的源头。
· 环境描写: 糟糕的天气(暗示困难)、远处的一盏灯(暗示希望或转机)等,环境常烘托气氛并预示发展。
· 未解之谜: 故事中故意没有说明白的事情。
第四步:确定矛盾与冲突(Conflict) 没有冲突就没有故事。续写需要解决或深化这个冲突。
· 技巧: 识别核心冲突类型:
· 人与自我: 主人公内心的挣扎(如:恐惧 vs 勇气)。
· 人与人: 主人公与他人之间的误解、争吵或竞争。
· 人与环境: 主人公面对自然灾害、社会困境或陌生环境的挑战。
第五步:预测合理方向(Prediction) 基于以上分析,推导出几个最合理的续写方向。
· 技巧: 问自己:
· 根据人物性格,他接下来最可能怎么做?
· 故事的整体基调(是积极的还是悲观的)是什么?续写应保持基调一致。
· 如何利用上一步中找到的伏笔?最好的续写是能巧妙呼应并解开前文伏笔的续写。
二、写作训练
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。
When I lived in Portland, Oregon, I taught English as a Second Language at a local community college. I had adult students in my class from Vietnam, Mexico, Russia and many other countries. Although they came from many lands, fighting for a better life, they had one thing in common: a desperate yearning(渴望) to learn English well.
Many of the students worked in a factory for twelve hours throughout the night and hurriedly took a bus in the morning straight to our 8:00 a.m. class. They attended my class on time whatever the weather. And they waited until after class to go home and sleep. Sometimes I would see them struggling to keep their eyes open in the beginning. However, their active participation in class drove away their physical tiredness as well as livened up the atmosphere. Some students even raised a bunch of questions by gesture after class. They were always there working hard, earnest and eager to learn.
Despite their lack of sleep and long hours at work, the level of attendance and attentiveness in class was always excellent. No one called in sick. No one was absent-minded. Some of the students had as many as three jobs and took the bus everywhere they went because they couldn’t afford cars.
To teach the course, I needed to use a lot of pictures and hand gestures, since I didn’t know all their respective languages. One of the things I taught was a simple dialogue called “Shopping for a New Coat”. They enjoyed standing up and acting out the gestures that accompanied the text of the story.
Sometimes I wondered if I was really teaching my students in the best way possible. But I gave my all to this class, and they gave their all to me. If nothing else, they would always remember what to say if they ever went “shopping for a new coat”. Soon, the language course came to an end.

(一)阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Ainu Language (アイヌ イタㇰ)
Classification & Status
The Ainu language (アイヌ・イタㇰ, Aynu itak) is a critically endangered language isolate spoken by the Ainu people, the indigenous inhabitants of Hokkaido (Japan), Sakhalin (Russia), and the Kuril Islands. With fewer than 10 native speakers (all elderly) as of 2024, UNESCO classifies Ainu as "nearly extinct."
Linguistic Features
Unlike Japanese, Ainu is a language isolate, meaning it has no proven genealogical relationship to other languages. Key features include:
·Polysynthetic structure: Complex words formed by adding prefixes / suffixes (e.g., “e-aynu-sir-kor” = “let us go to the Ainu land”).
·Oral tradition: No native writing system; historically transcribed using Japanese katakana or Latin script.
·Nature-centric vocabulary: Over 20 words for "snow" and terms like "kamuy" (spirit) reflecting animist beliefs.
Revival Efforts
In 2019, Japan legally recognized Ainu as an "indigenous language" for the first time. Current initiatives include:
·Ainu-language radio programs (FM Pipaushi).
·Mobile apps (e.g., Ainu Talking Dictionary).
·School courses in Hokkaido (though limited to basic phrases).
Threats
Historical suppression (e.g., 19th-century assimilation policies) and stigma led to intergenerational language loss. Younger Ainu often prioritize Japanese for economic opportunities.
1. How many native Ainu speakers remain today?
A. More than 100+ B. Fewer than 10 C. Just 1,000 D. Over 20
2. What does the underlined word “isolate” in Paragraph 2 most likely mean?
A. A language unrelated to others.
B. A language with many dialects.
C. A language spoken on an island.
D. A language used only in rituals.
3. Why might younger Ainu people avoid learning their ancestral language?
A. It lacks a writing system.
B. UNESCO discourages its use.
C. Japanese offers more economic benefits.
D. Ainu has no words for modern technology.
4. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Japan is working hard to save Ainu.
B. Ainu has a lot in common with Japanese.
C. Ainu has its own unique writing system.
D. Japan has included Ainu into its high school courses.
5. Where is the passage most probably from?
A. A magazine. B. A textbook. C. A travel brochure. D. An encyclopedia.
B
Driven by China’s economic rise, Mandarin Chinese has become a critical global language. Over 100 million people worldwide now study Chinese, with 70+ countries integrating it into national education systems.
In the UK, the government launched a £10 million program in 2016 to teach Mandarin in 5,200+ schools, aiming to train 5,000 fluent students by 2020. Former Prime Minister David Cameron urged British youth to “drop French and German” for Mandarin, calling it vital for future competitiveness. The BBC even aired Mandarin cartoons for preschoolers.
The US views Mandarin as a career accelerator. Since Mandarin joined the Advanced Placement (AP) curriculum in 2006, 800+ universities established Chinese departments. States like Minnesota promote immersive Mandarin classes—using Chinese to teach math and science—to meet business demand.
Russia made history by adding Mandarin to its national college entrance exam, becoming the first country to do so. Meanwhile, South Korea leads in HSK test-takers globally, with 17 million learners.
Economic pragmatism fuels this trend. As a New Zealand official noted: “China is our largest export market... We need Mandarin speakers to trade and engage tourists”. Similarly, the New York Times linked Mandarin’s popularity to China’s political clout.
Confucius Institutes—China’s language diplomacy hubs—operate in 135 countries, notably along the Belt and Road, where Mandarin skills attract Chinese investment. As one Turkish learner put it: “Mastering Chinese means mastering the future.”
6. How many countries have included Mandarin in national education systems?
A. 70+ B. 130+ C.800+ D.5200+
7. Which country incorporated Mandarin into its college entrance exam first?
A. South Korea B. Russia C. New Zealand D. the US
8. Why does New Zealand prioritize Mandarin learning according to the text?
A. To study traditional poetry B. To strengthen its own political clout.
C. To migrate to China D. To boost trade and tourism with China
9. What does the underlined word "hubs" in Paragraph 6 most likely mean?
A. Little cultural barriers B. Central connection points
C. Important historical monuments D. International financial squares

It’s said that the Chinese characters were invented by Cangjie. They were deciphered (破译) in the Song Dynasty 25 whether these are the correct answers is still debatable.

Inspired by these, Cangjie invented various symbols 26 (base) on the shapes and 27 (appear) of different things and named them zi (character). These most ancient Chinese pictographs (象形文字) have ended the time 28 people tied knots to record their lives.
According to the Han Dynasty’s Chinese dictionary Shuo Wen Jie Zi, Cangjie wrote two scrolls, which 29 (lose) during wars in the Sui Dynasty.

5. I prioritize proper nouns(e.g., UNESCO, Yale), numbers (e.g., 6,000-7,000), italicized/bolded terms (e.g., book titles), and listed items (e.g., India, Nepal, photographs, films). These stand out visually and are easy to spot without reading full sentences. I move my eyes quickly down the text in a‘Z’pattern, focusing only on keywords related to the question. I ignore sentences without those keywords and use paragraph headings/formatting (like italics or lists) as shortcuts.
