It is made up of Scotland, Wales and England, that is, the4of Britain, and also about one sixth of Ireland, the Northern part. The5of Ireland is self-governing. The6name of the United Kingdom is7“The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”.England is larger and richer than Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and has the most8of the United Kingdom, so people often use the9“England” and “English” when they10“Britain” and “British”.

2018-2019学年高二英语人教版必修五练习:Unit 2 课下能力提升(五) Word版含答案
姓名,年级:时间:Unit 2 课下能力提升(五)阅读理解ALondon — A morning’s train ride away, across the Channel, English kids about Liverpool’s soccer team in a Paris pub。
Some Parisians have even started to go to work in London。
In the 19th century, Charles Dickens compared the two great rival cities, London and Paris, in A Tale of Two Cities. These days, it might be A Tale of One City。
Parisians are these days likely to smile in sympathy at a visitor’s broken French and respond in polite English.As jobs grew lacking at home over recent years, perhaps 250,000 Frenchmen moved across the Channel. With an undersea tunnel, they could travel between cities in three hours. The European Union freed them from immigration and customs。
Paris, rich in beauty, is more attractive, but London feels more full of life, and more fun until the pubs shut down。
2018--2019学年人教版必修五Unit 2 The United Kingdom reading课时作业
必修五Unit 2 The United Kingdom reading课时作业Ⅰ. 阅读理解AA British friend told me he couldn’t understand why Chinese people love eating sunflower seeds as a snack so much. “I’ve met a lot of older Chinese and many have a crack in their front teeth; I believe that’s from cracking the seeds, ” he said.I had never noticed the habit, but once he mentioned it, I suddenly became more aware. I realized that whenever I’m watching TV or typing a report, I always start mindlessly cracking sunflower seeds. My friend doesn’t like sunflower seeds, and, to him, it seems unne cessary to work so much just to get one small seed.When we were young, the whole family would usually get together for Chinese New Year. Then, we all lived close to one another, usually in a small city, and sometimes even neighbors would go door-to-door on Chinese New Year’s Eve to check out what every household was making.I remember my parents would be in the kitchen cooking. Out in the living room , a large table would already be laid out, complete with fancy tablecloth, ready-made dumpling fillings, and dishes full of candy, fruits and sunflower seeds. Some of the dishes were to be offered to our ancestors later, while others were for neighbors and children to eat before the evening feast. I must have learned how to crack sunflower seeds back then.I don’t think it’s right to criticize one’s choice in food or eating habits, no matter how strange they may seem.It’s not only in China. When I went abroad, I found people had all sorts of strange habits when it came to food. In Denmark, they put salted red fish on bread and eat it for dinner, no matter how much it ruins your breath. They think it’s a delicacy, and it’s connected to their culture. I think it’s a wonderful tradition.1. What did the writer become aware of?A. She had ever typed a report about seeds.B. She had various snacks while watching TV.C. She had a habit of cracking sunflower seeds.D. She damaged her teeth by eating sunflower seeds.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。

课后阅读作业Unit 1 Period 2Ⅰ. 阅读理解AAlbert Einstein had a great effect on science and history, and his achievement was even greater than only a few other great scientists have achieved. An American university president once said that Einstein had made a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity(识别)of time and space and so on—but even ordinary men now understand that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.By 1914 young Einstein had been world-famous. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited chances for study, but soon his peace and quietness were broken by World WarⅠ.Einstein hated fighting and killing. The great suffering of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work.In the year following World WarⅠhonors were increasingly put on him. He became head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics. But he himself refused the effort to put him in a position far above other people. He was well-known for his humble(谦逊的)manner. He often said that his success would certainly have been achieved by others if he had never lived.In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize, and he was honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism(纳粹主义)when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.【语篇概述】本文主要介绍了爱因斯坦的生活以及成就。

2018年秋季高中英语 Unit 5 Music Period 3 Learning about Language课后阅读训练 新人教版必修2
Unit 5 Music Period 3 Learning about Language课后阅读训练Ⅰ. 阅读理解ABackground music may seem harmless, but it can have a powerful effecton those who hear it. Recorded background music first found its way intofactories, shops and restaurants in the US. But it soon spread to the otherparts of the world. Now it is becoming increasingly difficult to go shoppingor eat a meal without listening to music.To begin with, “muzak”(背景音乐)was intended simply to create a soothing(抚慰的)atmosphere. Recently, however, i t’s become a big business according to recent research. Dr. Ronald Milliman, an American marketing expert, has shown that music can boost(增进;改善)sales or increase factory production by as much as a third.But it has to be light music. A fast one has no effect at all on sales. Slow music can increase receipts(收据;收条)by 38%. This is probably because shoppers slow down and have more opportunity to spot items they like to buy. Yet, slow music isn’t always answered. Dr. Milliman found, for example, that in restaurants slow music meant customers took longer time to eat their meals, which reduced overall sales. So restaurants owners might be well advised to play uptempo music to keep the customers moving—unless, of course, the resulting indigestion leads to complaints! 【语篇概述】背景音乐有什么重要用途?了解一下吧, 相信你会有所收获。
