初中英语拓展阅读(2)ARed is used in many American expressions. It can be used to show happiness, as in the expression “a red-letter day”. This is a day when something special happens. The expressi on is probably based on church customs. For almost 600 years, church calendars have been marked with red to show special holy days. Today’s calendars are still marked that way with the dates of holidays and special days printed in red.The expressio n “a red-letter day” is often heard in everyday life. “A red-letter day” is a day that people are especially happy. It may be a day that you have long waited for, a wedding day, for example. Or it may be a day with a happy surprise. You might tell a friend that yesterday was a red-letter day, because you won some money in the lottery.“Rolling out the red carpet” is another commonly heard expression. It describes an especially warm welcome of any kind. A city may “roll out the red carpet” for its baseball t eam, when the team arrives home after winning a championship. A group of supporters go to the airport to greet the team. The red-carpet welcome includes a lot of cheering by thousands of fans, a parade, music and speeches of praise by local politicians.Red is also used in some expressions that are not happy. “Red-handed” is one. To be caught “red-handed” is to be found in an act of wrong doing. The evidence is clear. You are guilty.Today we use the expression to be caught “red-handed” in situation s that are not serious. For example, a mother might say she caught her son red-handed, taking cookies out of the cookie jar.Choose the best answer for each question.( )1. The expression “a red-letter day” perhaps first came from _______.A. English customsB. church calendarsC. weekdaysD. a dictionary( )2. You can say it’s a red-letter day if _______ on that day.A. you find a good jobB. you borrow some moneyC. you are freeD. you write a letter to your friend( )3.

In other words, lots of English people like the idea of sports. A lot of them watch sports on TV. But the number of the people who take part in sports is quite small.(6) On the whole, English people prefer to be fat rather than thin.The most popular sport in England is football.(7) Football is played on Saturday afternoons in most towns and the supporters of a certain team will travel from one end of the country to the other to watch their team play. There are four divisions of the football league.(8) Not surprisingly, the best teams are in the first division. But the best supporters are often in the fourth division. You have to be a good supporter to watch the fourth division football!Many other sports are also played in England,(9) such as golf, in which you try to knock a ball into a hole; basketball, in which you try to get a ball through a net; tennis, in which you try to hit a ball so that your opponent can not hit it. As you see, if the ball had not been invented, there would have been no sport.Of course, that is not quite true. Athletics isn’t played with a ball, nor horse racing. Perhaps that is why they are not so popular as football!(10)Put the underlined sentences into Chinese.6. ___________________________________________7. ___________________________________________8. ___________________________________________9. ___________________________________________10. ___________________________________________Help: divisions n. 级opponent n. 对手athletics n. 田径运动horse racing 赛马CNational Library of New Zealand is open from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, from Monday to Friday and 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, on Saturday.

This is a television show for all the families, and I know you’re going to enjoy it.Let’s start with a story I heard the o ther day about a very proud pig. This pig lived on a farm with a lot of other animals. And of all the animals on the farm, he thought he was the most important. But it was not enough that he himself thought this way. He had to be sure that the other animals thought so, too. So he went up to one of the chickens and asked, “Who is the most important animal on the farm?” Straight away, the chicken answered, “You are, master.” Then he asked one of the farm dogs, and he got the same reply.Next, he asked a cow. When the cow seemed uncertain of the right answer, the pig looked angry and showed his teeth. “Oh, you are, of course, master pig,” said the cow. “Of course,” the pig said. “There is no doubt about it.”At last, the pig asked a big horse, “Who is the most important animal on the farm?” The horse lifted one foot, rolled the pig over, and placed his foot on the pig’s head. “All right,” said the pig, “you don’t have to do that just becaus e you don’t know the answer.”Choose the best answer for each question.( )1.

It was the time of the Gold Rush.Thousands of people were coming to California to dig for gold. And Levi Strauss came to sell canvas to these gold miners. Canvas was a heavy fabric. So Levi Strauss thought the miners might need it to mend tents.One day Strauss heard a miner said he couldn’t find clothes strong enough for the work he was doing. Strauss got an idea. He quickly took some of his canvas and made it into trousers. These trousers were just what the miners needed. In one day he sold all the trousers he had made.Strauss wanted to make better trousers. So he bought the fabric that was softer than canvas but just as strong. This fabric came from Nimes, a city in France, so the miners called it “denim” and bought more trousers from Strauss.However, denim had no color. Because of this the denim trousers did not look very nice, and they got dirty easily. To solve this problem, Strauss dyed the denim blue.Strauss started a company. Today the company is known around the world and its trousers are popular with many people from teens to the old. And the trousers are thought not only strong but also pretty. This is how jeans came out. Mark these statements with “T” (true) or “F” (false).( )6. In 1850, many people went to California to buy trousers made of denim.( )7. Levi Strauss was born in Germany, but did business in America.( )8. Denim first came f rom Levi Strauss’s hometown.( )9. A lot of people like to wear jeans in the world.( )10.

And it goes on until one of the men crashes through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead!Of course, he isn’t really dead. With luck he isn’t even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains are professionals. They do these for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks. There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. However, they do not fall onto hard ground, but onto empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress. And, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood, and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman’s success depends on careful timing. For example, he has to jump out of the range of the explosion just at the right moment.Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff a thousand feet high. His parachute failed to open, and he was killed.Choose the best answer for each question.( )11. From the passage, we know that stuntmen are those who _____________.A. often dress up as actorsB. prefer to lead dangerous livesC. often perform seemingly dangerous actionsD. often fight with each other( )12. Stuntmen earn their living by __________________.A. playing their dirty tricksB. selling their special skillsC. jumping out of high windowsD. jumping from fast moving trains( )13. ___________ is the main factor of a successful performance.A. StrengthB. ExactnessC. SpeedD. Trick( )14. What can be inferred from the example of the Norwegian stuntman?A. Sometimes an accident may occur to a stuntman.B. The percentage of serious accidents is high.C. The cliff is too high.D.

Try to find out whether your teacher reallydislikes you, or whether something else is going on. Here are some questions to ask yourself:1. Are you the only person being treated badly, or is your teacher rough on the wholeclass? Ask your classmates if they are having trouble with the teacher, too. If they say yes, perhapsyour teacher is having problems outside the school, or is new and at a loss.2. Are you working up to your ability? Maybe you got a C in your last test, and yourteacher told you that you could do better. But the kid sitting beside you got a C, too, and theteacher didn ’t say anything to him! Isn ’t this unfair? Well, it could be that your teacher knows that you could get a better grade if you put more effort into it. Teachers often grade students bydifferent standards. It ’s their way of encouraging a student to try a little harder.3. Are you more sensitive than other students? There ’nsothing wrong with beingsensitive, but if you react to criticism quite differently from others, this could be a reason why youthink your teacher doesn ’t like you.4. Does your teacher seem to act unfairly all the time, or just once in a while? Think about theharsh things your teacher has done or said to you. Are these things happening every day, or justonce or twice a month? If your teacher really hates you, you would probably be picked on all thetime.

What does the underlined word “it ”in the third paragraph mean?A. Your ability.B. A C grade.C. Your study.D. Your teacher.( )10. What ’s the best title for this passage?A.

There are three main steps to get towhere you want to go.First, sit down and write your dreams out. By writing them you will get a better idea ofwhere you really want to go. Imagine yourself at the end of the year or maybe in five years. Whatdo you see? How do people see you? What are you doing? Are you successful?Well, a dream is just that. It ’svaision of how you see yourself in the future. Once youknow the direction in which you want to go, you can begin working on some goals.Second come the goals. Goals are “wants ”. So are dreams, but goals are more specific. Ifyou want to be rich, tell how much money you need to be rich. If you want good grades, tell whatyou mean by “good ”In. fact, the more specific the goal is, the easier it w ill be to get it. Givenumbers and times. Don ’t use words like “lots ”or “more”. For example, I want a “B”my subjects.Third are the objectives. They tell exactly what you will do and when you will do it.When you think about what you will do, don’utse words like “try o”r “maybe”B e.sure yourobjectives can be measured. Every day or every week you can say, “Did I do this? ”and youanswer with either a yes or a no. Don ’t leave room for “maybes”.OK. Here is another example. I say I want a “B”in each subject. My objectives are:I will go to every class every day.I will sit in the middle of the classroom.I will re-read my notes from every class every day.I will finish every assignment the day when it is given.Well, you get the idea. Each of my objectives is specific and each one can be measured. If Ido all these things, there is a pretty good chance for me to get what I want, which means I fulfillmy dream.Fill in the blanks with proper words according to the passage.5. The writer advises you to write your _______ out so that you can get a better idea of whereyou really want to go.6. Dreams are not so _______ as goals.7. _______ tell exactly what to do and when to do it.8. “I want to learn more English in the future ”is a dream, while “I want to go to the English Department of Wuhan University ”is a _______.9.

They lived in Boston. There were five girls and six boys in the family On a January day in 1706, another baby boy was born. The boy’s mother and her husband gave the boy a name, Benjamin.Benjamin was the brightest of all the children. He could read when he was five and he could write by the time he was seven. When he was eight, he was sent to school. In school, Benjamin had been good at reading and writing but not good at math.He read all his father’s books.

You can’t go for a coffee with your girlfriend unless she is with her brother or her father.Italians say that your first love is usually your cousin.Most Japanese women nowadays say that they want their first child to be a daughter (girl).In Japan, you rarely use your older or younger siblings’ names, just calling them “older brother/ sister” “younger brother/ sister” etc. It is usual to use family names with your classmates and workmates, but in the UK you would only use first names.British comedians traditionally make lots of jokes about their mothers-in-law.Most British people have at least distant relations in Australia.
