Word had gone round during the day that old Major, the prize Middle White pig, had had a strange dream on the previous night and wished to communicate it to the other animals. It had been agreed that they should all meet in the big barn(谷仓) as soon as Mr.Jones was safely out of the way.At one end of the big barn, Major lay on his bed of straw comfortably. He was twelve years old and had lately grown rather heavy, but he was still a nice­looking pig, with a wise and easy­going appearance. Before long the other animals began toarrive and make themselves comfortable after their different fashions. First came the three dogs, Bluebell, Jessie, and Pincher, and then the pigs, who settled down in the straw immediately beside Major. The two cart­horses, Boxer and Clover, came in together, walking very slowly and setting down their vast hairy hoofs(蹄子) with great care for fear that there should be some small animals hidden in the straw. Clover was a motherly big horse approaching middle life, who had never quite got her figure back after her fourth kid.Boxer was an enormous beast, nearly eighteen hands high, and as strong as any two ordinary horses put together. A white stripe down his nose gave him a somewhat stupid appearance, and in fact he was not of first­rate intelligence, but he was well respected for his steadiness of character and extraordinary abilities. After the horses came Benjamin, the donkey, Benjamin got angry easily. He seldom talked, and when he did, it was usually to make all such remarks—for instance, he would say that God had given him a tail to keep the flies off, but that he would rather have had no tail and no flies. Alone among the animals on the farm he never laughed. If asked why, he would say that he saw nothing to laugh at.16.All the animals came to the barn to ________.A.vote for a farm masterB.listen to Major's strange dreamC.discuss how to win a prizeD.share how to drive Mr. Jones away17.According to the passage, Clover was ________.A.considerate and in good shapeB.old­aged and out of shapeC.a fat horse with a gentle heartD.a pretty horse with a nice character18.What earned Boxer high respect?A.His strong build and great wisdom.B.His calm character and great powers of work.C.His good temper and strong build.D.His steady character and quick mind.19.Which remark could be to Benjamin's taste?A.Life is like a box of sweets.B.Life is an interesting journey.C.Life is a battle.D.There is nothing exciting in life.B[2012·福建卷]Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it's because we have mirror neurons(神经元)in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate(模仿)it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not onlyappear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language.A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to(for example:“The hand took hold of the ball”), the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed(in this example, actually taking hold of a ball).Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact(互动).Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent(相等物)for neuroscience of what Einstein's theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does—well, perhaps you'll understand why.20.Mirror neurons can explain ________.A.why we cry when we are hurtB.why we cough when we suffer from a coldC.why we smile when we see someone else smileD.why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late21.The underlined word “triggered” in the third paragraph probably means “________”.A.set off B.cut offC.built up D.broken up22.We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons ________.A.relate to human behavior and interactionB.control human physical actions and feelingsC.result in bad behavior and social disordersD.determine our knowledge and language abilities23.What is the passage mainly about?A.Ways to find mirror neurons.B.Problems of mirror neurons.C.Existence of mirror neurons.D.Functions of mirror neurons.Ⅲ.短文改错Nowadays more and more people are concerning about their health, but how to keep health? First, it is necessary to take any exercise every day.Research shows that get plenty of exercise makes the heart beat fast and the lungs work harder.Second, eat more fruits, vegetable and less meat.Third, getting rid of bad habits as smoking and drinking is also important way to keep healthy. Smoking and alcohol drinking injures one's health a great deal,and therefore should be given up. If people follow these three ways of keeping fit, they'll great improve their health.课时作业(二十三)Ⅰ.1.C 考查非谓语动词。

Unit 4 Making the newsⅠ.阅读理解ANowadays there are many new cars on the road.Some new models are flashy and others are fuel efficient,and embedded technology(嵌入式系统技术) is at the heart of all of them.The new Ford Escape has a radar enabled adaptive cruise control(巡航车速控制装置) to avoid collisions,with sensors on the front and side of the car.Ford's Mark Schirmer says the electronic system can be accessed through the dashboard or a smartphone.“I am from Michigan.If it is a cold morning,I can have it start up right before I am scheduled to leave to go to the airport or go to work.You can find your car or if one of your family members borrows the car,it will show you exactly where it is,”said Schirmer.Third party products now in development,like this emergency warning system,help drivers who fail to hear an approaching siren.A near miss with an ambulance inspired the product from the Chicago start up HAAS,co founded by Cory Hohs.“It scared me enough that I started looking for a product that would alert me when they are coming,”said Hohs.A sobriety detector(清醒度检测器) from a Canadian company called Sober Steering is sold to companies with fleets of vehicles,such as buses.Chief Operating Officer Catherine Carroll says a sensor on the steering wheel can detect alcohol vapors emitted from the skin.“If I am drinking and I have levels above a preset limit,it immobilizes the vehicle,so you cannot move the vehicle that you are driving,”said Carroll.One company founder says the connected technology is playing an important role in people's daily life.He says,“You can buy a washing machine,you can buy a microwave that has Wi Fi and connects to a router.Also the connected technology of the cars has become as important as performance and styling.”[语篇解读] 本文为一篇说明文。

B.4.C.5. D.6.6.It seems that the writer________.A.is familiar with the education system of high schools in KoreaB.is fond of Korean students’ appearanceC.prefers the high school life of America to the one of KoreaD.feels it common to have lessons on weekends7.What does the underlined word “setup” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A.Arrangement. B.Size.C.Number. D.Outline.8.According to the rules,the students of Korea can________.A.go to different high schools without examsB.wear any clothes except uniforms at schoolC.attend different classes as they likeD.have different hair styles答案:课时作业(二十四)Ⅰ.单项填空1.解析:考查交际用语。

The frequency with which it is borrowed mirrors a heated debate on environmental protection: whether to place wilderness at the heart of what is to be preserved.As John Sauven of Greenpeace UK points out, there is a strong appeal in images of the wild, the untouched; more than anything else, they speak of the nature that many people value most dearly. The urge to leave the subject of such images untouched is strong, and the danger exploitation(开发)brings to such landscapes(景观)is real. Some of these wildernesses also perform functions that humans need—the rainforests, for example, store carbon in vast quantities. To Mr. Sauven, these “ecosystem services” far outweigh the gains from exploitation.Lee Lane, a visiting fellow at the Hudson Institute, takes the opposing view. He acknowledges that wildernesses do provide useful services, such as water conservation. But that is not, he argues, a reason to avoid all human presence, or indeed commercial and industrial exploitation. There are ever more people on the Earth, and they reasonably and rightfully want to have better lives, rather than merelystruggle for survival. While the ways of using resources have improved, there is still a growing need for raw materials, and some wildernesses contain them in abundance. If they can be tapped without reducing the services those wildernesses provide, the argument goes, there is no further reason not to do so. Being untouched is not, in itself, a characteristic worth valuing above all others.I look forward to seeing these views taken further, and to their being challenged by the other participants. One challenge that suggests itself to me is that both cases need to take on the question of spiritual value a little more directly. And there is a practical question as to whether wildernesses can be exploited without harm.This is a topic that calls for not only free expression of feelings, but also the guidance of reason. What position wilderness should enjoy in the preservation of the world obviously deserves much more serious thinking.16.John Sauven holds that ________.A.many people value nature too muchB.exploitation of wildernesses is harmfulC.wildernesses provide humans with necessitiesD.the urge to develop the ecosystem services is strong17.What is the main idea of Para.3?A.The exploitation is necessary for the poor people.B.Wildernesses cannot guarantee better use of raw materials.C.Useful services of wildernesses are not the reason for no exploitation.D.All the characteristics concerning the exploitation should be treated equally.18.What is the author's attitude towards this debate?A.Objective. B.Disapproving.C.Sceptical. D.Optimistic.19.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?CP:Central Point P:Point Sp:Sub­point(次要点)C:ConclusionB[2012·福建卷]Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too?

Making the news李仕才一、阅读理解Taylore is a kid who passes by to ride sometimes and help us with chores. Barely 15, she’s never short of advice, and one of her favorite pastimes is teasing me about being afraid to go too fast on a horse. Last summer four of u s rode down the trail behind our woods: my wife Karen, Taylore, Taylore’s friend Kendall and me. I was riding my 13-year-old, Tawny.We were two miles from home when, for some unexplainable reason, I pushed Tawny into a gallop(飞驰). The other horses were anxious to catch up, and just like that, the race was on.Taylore brushed past my left leg and, seconds later, Kendall went by on my right. I realized Tawny was covering ground faster than I’d ever seen her. She strained every muscle in her body to catch u p with the girls. It was like a truck winding over a mountain road without brakes (闸). Part of me felt perfectly in control, while another part screamed that I wasn’t.In half a mile I knew we’d be crossing the highway, so I prayed that the girls would be fine. I gave up calculating how long it might take before my horse would be tried enough to want to slow down.I was just about out of answers when I saw the girls slowing in front of me. Their horses were relaxed and comfortable, not even breathing hard. Taylore’s face glowe d. She gave me a high five. "Wow, you did well, "she said. "I knew you’d go fast when you were ready."No one in the group had even broken a sweat, except me. I was still nervous from the crazy pace. My heart pounded too, but not f rom exercise. Karen claims I was showing off for the girls that day, and maybe she’s right. But I think I had something to prove. Because despite my wrinkles (皱纹), glasses and gray hair,I was feeling young at heart. And, like a horse on a warm summer day, I’m always ready to kick up my heels.1. How did the race between the girls and the author begin?A. His horse’s gallop made the other horses want to catch up.B. He wanted to show off his riding skills for the girls.C.

It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises(出现) from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc., do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculiar(奇怪的) that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girlfriend.No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.11. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is________.A.repeated without any changeB.treated as a jokeC.made some changes by the parentD.set in the present12. According to the passage, great fear can take place in a child when the story is________.A.in a realistic settingB.heard for the first timeC.repeated too oftenD.told in a different way13. The advantage claimed(提出) for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it________.A.makes them less fearfulB.develops their power of memoryC.makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid ofD.encourages them not to have strange beliefs14. The author's mention of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that________.A.fairy stories are still being made upB.there is some misunderstanding about fairy talesC.people try to modernize old fairy storiesD.there is more concern for children's fears nowadays15. One of the reasons why some people are NOT in favor of fairy tales is that________.A.they are full of imaginationB.they just make up the stories which are far from the truthC.they are not interestingD.they make teachers of history difficult to teachⅢ.信息匹配请阅读下列应用文和相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。
