Bangkok might be noisy and polluted, but it's also an exciting city with plenty of things to see and do. Why not make it a longer stay?Where to stayThe Khao San Road was a famous travel spot even before Leonardo DiCaprio's character in the film The Beach stayed there. But it's noisy, not very pretty and not very Thai. For something more authentic, Phra Khanong offers an alternative place to stay, with its fantastic street markets where every day Bangkok people eat, work and live. It's not as convenient as the main tourist sites, but it has a SkyTrain station so you can be at the Grand Palace in 20 minutes.How to get aroundBangkok's traffic can be a nightmare. Sure, you can easily take a taxi — if you want to spend hours stuck in traffic jams — but there are two much better ways to get around the city. To explore the temples and historical sites, catch an express boat or a longtail boat along the Chao Phraya River and the canals. For the modern part of the city, the SkyTrain is a fast, cheap way to travel from the river to the shopping malls and nightlife of Sukhumvit, and the famous Chatuchak market.Where to eatThe simple answer is: everywhere! Thai street food is among the best in the world, and for around $5 you can eat a filling and delicious meal. Some food stands have little plastic seats where you can sit and eat and they cook the same dish over and over, like fried rice or Pad Thai noodles. Head for Chinatown —Yaowarat Street —and choose whatever looks most interesting from the many excellent Chinese and Thai restaurants and food stands.What to doAfter you've seen the main sites like the Giant Buddha at the temple of Wat Pho and the spectacular Grand Palace, and shopped at Chatuchak market, check out the snake farm and watch the live snake show. You can even touch a snake yourself if you want to!1．Where can you experience a typical Thai life?A．Khao San Road. B．Phra Khanong.C．Yaowarat Street. D．Sukhumvit.2．Which is the best means of transport to visit the modern part of Bangkok?A．The taxi. B．The boat.C．The bus. D．The SkyTrain.3．What type of writing is this text?A．A travel guide. B．A film review.C．An announcement. D．A diary.BIn Britain, you can find that many social customs are related to hats. If a male guest was calling on his friend, after entering the room, he must take off his hat first. If you are going to attend a dinner party at your relative's or friend's place, when you enter the dining room you should not only take the hat off, but also hang it up or put it on the chair nearby, instead of just putting your hat on the table. When you meet an acquaintance on the street, if you are a female, you only need to nod and smile or say hello to him. But if you are a male, when you meet a female acquaintance, generally you need to take off your hat and bow to her.This etiquette (礼仪) is also reflected in the English language. For example, the English idiom “hat in hand” just means very respectful. And another idiom “take one's hat off to (someone)”，its extending meaning is “admire someone”．In addition, there is a kind of black hat in Britain which is called “bowler hat” (It is said that the hat was designed by the London hatmakers Thomas and William Bowler during 1849). It was very popular between gentlemen and businessmen and also became a status symbol of British men. If one wears a bowler hat which is new and straight, people would think highly of him; on the contrary, people would look down on the one who wears a worn bowler. There is a phrase “a bad hat” in English, which means a bad guy. Moreover, when people describe something which is black, they say “as black as a hat”. It may be assumed that it's related to that bowler hat.4．What does a British man do when he greets a lady?A．He shakes hands with her.B．He hugs and kisses her cheek.C．He smiles and waves to her.D．He takes off his hat and bows to her.5．In British culture, you “take off your hat” to show ________.A．satisfaction B．thankfulnessC．respect D．warmth6．What do you know about the bowler hat?A．It has a history of more than 200 years.B．It represents the social position of a British man.C．It was first worn by a wealthy businessman.D．It's no longer popular among young people.7．Which can be a suitable title for the text?A．Britain's hat cultureB．The bowler hat in BritainC．British social etiquetteD．The hat in English languageⅢ.完形填空When I was about 11 years old, one day, I was at my friend Jenny's house after school, and we were doing homework.

I had just picked up my threeyearold daughter from nursery. I was weighed down with shopping, and with my daughter's things. We arrived at a pedestrian crossing and she pressed the button. In the distance, I heard alarms, told my daughter to wait and watched the police car approach.Little did I know, as the_green_man flashed, that my daughter had begun to run into the road. I watched the police car speed towards us—that's when you sounded your horn (喇叭) and waved wildly to me. My daughter was about a meter from the pathof the police car, hidden from their view by your car.I screamed her name and ran towards her.She stopped and was shocked by the rush of the police car as it sped past. She wondered why you had blown your horn, asking, “Why was that woman so rude？〞 not realizing that you had saved her life.She wondered why I picked her up, and burst into tears. My legs gave way as I reached the other side of the road. I should have followed up my “wait〞 with a hand on her shoulder, or an explanation of why we were ignoring the green man this time, especially as I had in effect conditioned her to cross the road on the sight of the green flash.I beat myself up for months, and still do, with flashbacks and horrible assumption about what might have been. But for you sounding your horn, seeing what I hadn't seen, I would have been left a mother on the other side of the road, totally broken. I apologize for putting you in that position—I can imagine that it upset you, too. You saved her life and I am so very, very grateful.1．The underlined part “the green man〞 in Paragraph 2 refers to ________.A．a pedestrian B．a policemanC．a traffic sign D．a button2．Why did the woman sound her horn?A．To stop the police car.B．To show her impatience.C．To greet passing pedestrians.D．To draw the mother's attention.3．What can we infer from the incident?A．The mother didn't regret what had happened.B．The daughter didn't follow the traffic rules.C．The woman responded quickly and properly.D．The police drove beyond the speed limit.4．How did the mother feel when taking hold of her daughter?A．Angry and shocked. B．Scared but relieved.C．Guilty and confused. D．Grateful but sad.Ⅲ.阅读七选五How To Cultivate Your ConfidenceSelfconfidence, the combination of selfefficacy and selfesteem, is an essential part of humanity.A person with selfconfidence generally is willing to take risks to achieve his personal goals.Someone who lacks selfconfidence, however, is less likely to feel that he can achieve his goals. __1__Identify your negative thoughts.Your negative thoughts might sound like this：“I can't do that，〞“I will surely fail〞. This inner voice is pessimistic and unhelpful and will hold you back from achieving high selfesteem and greater selfconfidence.Turn your negative thoughts to positive thoughts.__2__ This may take the form of positive affirmations, such as “I am going to try it，〞“I can be successful if I work at it, 〞or “people will listen to me〞. Start with just a few positive thoughts a day.Refuse to allow negative thoughts to occur more often than positive thoughts.Eventually, your positive thoughts should be given more “brain space〞 than your negative thoughts. __3____4__ Avoid spending time around things that can make you feel bad about yourself again. These might be reminders from the past, clothing that no longer fits, or places that don't fit with your new goals of gaining confidence. Though you may not be able to get rid of every negative source in your life, you can certainly think about how to cut your losses. __5__A．Get away from your past.B．Rid reminders of your negativity.C．This will go a long way in building up your selfconfidence.D．This means that you can have an abundance of selfconfidence.E．The more your positive thoughts get ，the less your negative thoughts get.F．As you pay attention to your negative thoughts, turn them around to positive thoughts.G．The good news is that selfconfidence is something that you can build on your own.课时作业(二)Ⅰ.单句语法填空1．ambitious 2.disabled 3.was 4.hearing 5.suitable6．conducted 7.noisy 8.absence 9.annoyed 10.beneficialⅡ.阅读理解1．答案与解析：C “the green man〞可以flashed“闪〞，并且它一闪光，警车便加速驶向我们。

阅读提升作业五Module 2 Period 1阅读理解ASome people are lucky enough to be born with a good sense of directionand even if they have just visited a place once, they will be able to findit again years later.I am one of those unfortunate people who have a very poor sense of direction and I may have visited a place time after time but I still manage to get lost on my way there.When I was young I was so shy that I never dared to ask complete strangers the way and so I used to wander round in circles and hoped that by some chance I would get to the spot I was heading for.I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive replies that puzzle me. Often people do not like to admit that they do not know their hometown and will insist on telling you the way even if they do not know it; others, who are anxious to prove that they know their hometown very well, will give you a long list of directions which you cannot possibly hope to remember; and still others do not seem to be able to tell between their left and their right and you find in the end that you are going in the opposite direction to that in which you should be going.If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I always tell him/her that I am a stranger to the town in order to avoid giving him/her wrong directions, but even this can have embarrassing results.Once I was on my way to work when I was stopped by a man who asked me if I would direct him to the Sunlight Building. I gave my usual reply, but I had not walked on a few steps when I realized that he had asked for directions to my office building.However, at this point, I decided it was too late to turn back and search him out of the crowd behind me, as I was going to meet with someone at the office and I did not want to keep him waiting.Imagine my embarrassment when my secretary showed in the very man who had asked for directions to my office and his astonishment when he recognized me as the person he had asked.【语篇概述】本文是一篇记叙文, 主要讲述了方向感很差的作者在问路和被问路时遇到的事情。

课堂15分钟达标练 Module 1 Life in the Future Period 1 Introduction & Reading and Vocabulary（1）Life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, it seems that TV channels will have disappeared by 2050. Instead, people will choose a programme from a“menu”and a computer will send the programme directly to the television. Today, we can use the World Wide Web to read newspaper stories and see pictures on a computer thousands of kilometers away. By 2050, music, films, programmes, newspapers and books will come to us in this way.In many places, agriculture is developing quickly and people are growing fruit and vegetables for export. This uses a lot of water. Therefore, there could be serious shortages. Some scientists predict that water could be the cause o f war if we don’t save now.In the future, cars will run on new, clean fuels and they will go very fast. Cars will have computers to control the speed of them and there won’t be any accidents. Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are. By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination. Also, by 2050, space planes will fly people from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours.Some big companies now prefer to use robots that do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and work 24 hours a day. By 2050, we will see robots everywhere—in factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.By 2050, we will be able to help blind and deaf people see again and hear again. Nowadays, scientists have discovered how to control genes and have already produced clones of animals. By 2050, scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look, how they behave and how much intelligence they have. Scientists will be able to do these things, but should they?【语篇概述】本文主要讲到2050年, 高科技在信息来源、农业、汽车、太空飞机、机器人及克隆方面带给人们的影响。
