But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be surprised . Gently shaking his head, shrugging his shoulders, he said, "You don't say!" "You don't say!" I was puzzled. I thought , perhaps this is not an proper topic. "Well, I'd better change the topic. " So I said to him, "Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?" "Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was wonderful." He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. "The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it." Soon I was stopped again by his words: "You don't say!" I couldn't help asking, "Why do you ask me not to talk about it ?" "Well, I didn't ask you to do so," he answered, greatly surprised. I said, "Didn't you say ‘you don't say'?" Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, ‘You don't say' actually means ‘really'! It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don't pay attention to English idioms." Only then did I know how foolish I had been. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students. 1.At first, on hearing "You don't say", I thought the foreigner meant____. A. He was not interested in the topic B. He was only interested in the Great Wall C. I had talked too much 3
D. I had to stop talking 2.The underlined word in the first paragraph probably means____. A. interesting B. important C. terrible D. unlucky 3.Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. The Englishman left China without seeing the Great Wall. B. The Englishman wanted to see the Great Wall after I talked about it. C. The Englishman wanted me to act as his guide. D. The Englishman visited the Great Wall and thought it worth (值得) visiting. 4.After the Englishman explained the idiom, _____. A. I thought the Englishman had made me a fool. B. The Englishman became a real fool. C. I felt very foolish D. I became more careful in everything. 三、拓展应用:翻译句子(共2小题,每小题4分,满分8分)

Unit 2 Travelling around 同步练习(答题时间:30分钟)一、完形填空Last summer, I travelled to Meixian County with my friends. It is a small county at the foot of Taibai Mountain in Shaanxi Province. We stayed there for one week and I1 my vacation because of the beautiful scenery at the top of the mountain.I will2 forget the day when we climbed the main peak (山顶). The3 in that area changes very quickly: it was sunny in the early morning when we set out,4 it began to rain heavily when we were only halfway up.Soon, we were all5 and some of us wanted to go home. They said, “There is nothing6 here. We came to see the scenery,7 the pouring rain!” However, the guide8 , “Since we have got wet already, why not just go on with our journey?” So we carried on up the mountain and,9 we even noticed, the rain stopped and the sun was smiling again. When we reached the top of the peak, the view was unique (独特的).Up there, it was bright and clear. The sky was 10 and the air was fresh. The gentle wind made us feel cool. All the clouds were just like waves in the ocean, 11 and falling under our feet. We could only see the peaks of mountains, as if they were 12 floating sparsely (稀疏地)in the ocean. It was a really magical experience.While we were enjoying the scene, the guide said 13 , “You see, I knew that there would be no rain above the clouds.”It is 14 . While it may rain below the clouds, the sun is still there above them.You will never see the sun 15 you don’t try your best to climb to the top of the mountain. If we had stopped and gone home when the rain was very heavy, we would never have seen the beautiful scenery 16 the clouds. I think this is also true in 17 .As the song says, “You won’t see the rainbow unless you have gone through the thunder and storm.” I think in the 18 , whenever I have any difficulties in my life, I will remember the 19 from the top of Taibai Mountain and the 20 which touched my heart deeply: There is no rain above the clouds.1. A. spent B. killed C. had D. enjoyed2. A. ever B. never C. certainly D. perhaps3. A. scenery B. cloud C. sky D. weather4. A. so B. while C. but D. instead5. A. tired B. hungry C. angry D. wet6.

Some people seem to think it’s for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words——the longer the lists, the better. That’s wrong. Language is for the exchange of ideas and information. It’s meaningless knowing all about a language if you can’t use it freely.Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they can’t speak correctly or fluently(流利地). They are afraid of making mistakes. One s houldn’t be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. Native speakers make mistakes and break rules, too. Bernard Shaw once wrote, “Foreigners often speak English too correctly.” But the mistakes that native speakers make are different fr om those that Chinese students make. They’re English mistake in the English language. And if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. What used to be wrong becomes right. People not only make history, they make languages, also. But a people can only make its own language. It can’t make another people’s language. So Chinese students learning English should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldn’t overdo it. They should put the communication at the first place.1. Generally, when an American or an Englishman speaks English, he .A. never makes mistakesB. often makes mistakesC. can’t avoid making mistakesD. always makes mistakes2.The sentence “Foreighers often speak English too correctly” m eans that .A. foreighers speak connect EnglishB. foreigners speak incorrect EnglishC. foreigners speak English according to the grammar rulesD. foreigners never make mistakes when they speak English3.

But there areminor differences between British English and American English in the following small areas.The first difference between British English and American English is vocabulary. Almost all of the words used in British English and American English are exactly thesame. Only a very small number of words are used differently.The second difference between British English and American English is pronunciation.Sometimes the Americans and Britishers don't understand each other's pronunciation. But most of the time, they do understand each other's pronunciationbecause most of the sounds of the two dialects are the same.The third difference is very small. This is the different spellings. A few kinds of words are spelled differently in British English and American English.21.British English and American English are________A. very different languagesB. almost the sameC. exactly the sameD. quite different from each other22.According to the writer, minor differences between British English andAmerican English are found in the areas of__________.A. idiomatic expressions, vocabulary and pronunciationB. pronunciation, vocabulary and spellingC. grammar, idiomatic expressions andspelling D. grammar, spelling, vocabulary23.Which of the following words have different spellings but the same pronunciation in British English and American English?A. Doctor.B. Kilometer.C. Travel.D. DifferentBEnglish may not be a world language foreverWhile 375 million people around the globe use English as their mother tongue,the number of people using it as a second language has already been well over thatfigure.It is said that by the end of 2000, one billion people could use English tocommunicate with others, including both native speakers and non-native speakers."The rise and fall of a language is closely connected with that country's economic strength and development potential (潜力 )," Rhodri Jones, the English 2000 managerof the ELT group of the British Council said.An expert who has given many lectures on the future of English said the economicboost ( 快速发展 ) in Asia would raise the positions of the Chinese and Hindi languages. Therefore,the English language is facing a serious problem.Where will English turn in the next 50 years or the century?The recently introduced book from Britain "Future of English" might give peopleconcerned with their question some enlightenments (启示 ). The book helps English teachers,planners,managers and decision makers with a professional interest in the development of English worldwide.With the book written in English translated into Chinese and to be published soon, the book might be brought to a wider sphere of people."From the book, we learn many facts about the English language, and we may beable to predict( 展望 ) its future after reading it,"said Dorothy Humphery, who used to be a senior English teacher for the British Council.24.The reason why some language rises in the world depends on__________.A. the population of the countryB. the country's economy strength in the worldC. the number of the population who use it25.The book " Future of English" helps to_______________A. improve the standard of people's learningEnglish B. adds to people's interest toward EnglishC. emphasize (重申) the importance of English in the worldD. make people interested in the development of English worldwide26. After reading "Future of English" we know______________A. English is the language that the people who speak it is the most in the worldB. English may disappear sooner or laterC. the world is keeping changing from time to timeD. what the future of the English language is27.The main idea of the passage is________.A why English has been popular in the worldB. how to improve people's ability of learning EnglishC. English has a bright futureD. the usage of English may become less in the world one dayCLanguage learning begins with listening. Children are greatly different in theamount ( 数量 ) of listening they need before they start speaking, and children whostart speaking late are often long listeners.Most children will"obey" ( 遵从 ) spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word "obey" can hardlydescribe the cooperation (合作 ) shown by the children. Before they can speak, manychildren will also ask questions by gestures (手势 ) and by making noises.It is agreed that babies enjoy making noises,and that during the first few months one or two special noises are used by them to show their happiness,pain, friendliness,and so on. But since these cannot be said to be a kind of communication, they canhardly be regarded as early forms of language. From about three months old they playwith sounds for enjoyment,and by six months they are able to add new sounds to their store. This self-imitation (自我模拟 ) leads on to deliberate (有意的 ) imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises thatthese imitations can be considered as speech.It is a problem we need not get our teeth into(全身心地做 ......). The meaningof a word depends on what a special person means by it in special situation;and what a child means by a word will change as he gets more experience of the world.Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after thechild has begun to speak for himself. I wonder, however, whether anything is gainedwhen parents try to use this ability to teach new sounds.28.Before children start speaking,__________.A. they need equal amounts of listeningB. they need different amounts of listeningC. they can all cooperate with the adults (成年) by obeying spoken instructions29.Children who start speaking late________.A. may have problems with their hearingB. probably do not hear enough language spoken around themC usually pay close attention to what they hearD. often take a long time in learning to listen properly30. The problem that a baby's imitations can be considered as speech__________.A. is important because words have different meanings for different peopleB.is not especially important because the changeover takes place graduallyC. is one that can never be properly understood because the meaning of wordschanges with ageD. is one that should be completely ignored (忽略 ) because children's use of wordsis often meaningless31. Baby's first noises are__________.A. a reflection (照射) of his moods (情绪 ) and feelingsB. an early form of languageC. a sign that he means to tell you somethingD. an imitation of the speech of adults.32. From the last paragraph we know that____.A. parents can never hope to teach their children new soundsB. children no longer imitate people after they begin to speak for themselvesC. children who are good at imitating learn new sounds more quicklyD. even after they have learnt to speak children still enjoy imitating延伸研究题I .完形填空 (20 分 )Do you know1languages there are in the world?

They are the natives of America. They looksomewhat like Tibetants( 西藏人 ).They are not red, but brown. They were called Indians by mistake. When Columbus landed in the New World in 1492, he thought he had landedin India and called the people Indians.The Black people had a sad history. Nearly all of them are descendants (后辈 ) of Africans brought from Africa to America sold as slaves in the17th and 18th centuries. Today, they are about21 million in number or 11 percent of total American population.Most of them lived in the South till the 1930s and since then more and more were leaving the South to look for work in the industrial North. Today, 60 percent of Black Americans live in New York, Chicago and other big cities.Mexicans who belong to Latin Americans are the 2nd biggest minority nationality. Most of them are immigrant (移民) farm workers. The Puerto Ricans, from the islandof Puerto Rica off the coast of Florida, live mostly in the slums (穷人窟) of big cities like New York and Chicago. These two peoples like the Afro-Americans mostlylive below the poverty line.There are Chinese people living in America, too — almost a quarter of million(The exact figure is 236 000). Many of them went to America about 100 years ago to buildthe railways there. They suffered a great deal. Today, most Chinese Americans livein California (a state facing the Pacific Ocean) and New York, and also in Hawaii,and archipelago (群岛) in the mid-Pacific, which is counted as the 50th state of theU. S. A.21.Which of the following shows the right relationship among the population ofAmerican minorities?A. American natives > Blacks >Mexcians>Chinese.B. Red Indians>Afro-Americans>Chinese.C. Blacks>Mexicans>European Americans > American Indians.D. Black Americans > Mexicans > Indians > Puerto Ricans.22.Which of the following shows the right historical order?a.

Black Americans and Puerto Ricans have begun to move from the countryside tobig cities.24.Which of the following maps gives the right position of the given places?( C — California; F—Florida:H—Hawaii; N—New York ;P—Puerto Rica Island)BIn the early part of the twentieth century, racism was widespread in the UnitedStates. Many African Americans were not given equal opportunities in education oremployment, Marian Anderson (1897 ~ 1993) was an African American woman who gainedfame as a concert singer in this climate of racism. She was born in Philadelphia andsang in church choirs during her childhood When she applied for admission to a localmusic school in 1917, she was turned down because she was black. Unable to attendmusic school, she began her career as a singer for church gatherings. In 1929, shewent to Europe to study voice and spent several years performing there. Her voicewas widely praised throughout Europe. Then she returned to the US in 1935 andbecame a top concert singer after performing at Town Hall in New York City.Racism again affected Anderson in 1939. When it was arranged for her to sing atConstitution Hall in Washington D. C. , the daughters of the American Revolutionopposed it because of her color.

It is the groundwork of reading and writing. You'd better try your best to speak. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. While you are doing this, a good exercise is to write—keep a diary, write notes or letters and so on. Many mistakes in your speaking will be easily found when you write. Through correcting the mistakes, you can do better in learning a language. If you are slow in speaking, don't worry. One of the helpful ways is reading either aloud or to yourself. The important thing is to choose something interesting to read. It mustn't be difficult for you. When you are reading in this way, don't stop to look up the words if you can guess their meanings or if they are not important to the sentence. You can do that at some other time.41. When learning English we should learn to speak first because__________.A. it's the basic work of language studyB. it plays the most important part in language studyC. speaking is the most important part in language studyD. speaking can help us to listen better42. When one is slow in speaking, he shouldA. read more carefullyB. do more readingC. learn to listenD. read something difficult43. The best way to find mistakes in learning a foreign language is to__________.A. keep a diary, write notes or letters and so onB. try your best to speak as fast as possibleC. pay attention to speakingD. practise talking with others44. The best title of the passage should be________________A. How to learn a foreign languageB. Listening, speaking, reading and writingC. The importance of speakingD. How to be a good readerBOne of the best-known American writers of children's books is Alfred Strong, or Doctor Strong, as he is better known to readers everywhere.

Unit 2 Travelling aroundUnit 2 Discovering Useful Structures & Listening and Talking1、 It is hard to say the first day of school in the United States because when the first day of school is and what happens on the first day of school usually are different by districts (地区).The first day of school for many school districts in different states is on the day after the first Monday in September. In some other school districts, school begins in mid-to-late August. For example, the Denver, Colorado schools go back in mid-August and schools in Cleveland, Ohio start back usually one week before the first Monday in September. The Boston, Chicago, New York City and San Diego schools start back on the Tuesday or Wednesday after the first Monday in September.Schools in Cleveland, Ohio used to start the school year on the day after the first Monday in September, but in the 1976-1977 and 1977-1978 academic years, the school year was affected by several bad snowstorms, extremely cold. In the 1978-1979 school year, the Ohio Department of Education moved the start of the year to late August, one week before the first Monday in September. This went into effect in the 1980-1981 school year.In most school districts in Utah, the school year starts between August 25 and August 30, and goes until the last week of May or the first week in June next year.In American high schools, the freshmen class usually goes back one or two days before the rest of the school body for an orientation (迎新) period. An orientation period helps the freshmen get familiar with their new school, its rules, and surroundings.In some schools, the freshmen classes have their photographs taken for identification purposes. Some high schools have tried to make the first week of school fun for incoming freshmen.1.According to the passage, which schools start their school year the earliest?A.Schools in Denver.B.Schools in Cleveland.C.Schools in New York City.D.Schools in Boston.2.Why did the Ohio Department of Education change the start of the school year?A.Because of some political events.B.Because of the entrance examinations.C.Because of the increasing number of students.D.Because of the extreme (极端的) weather.3.How many months does the school year last in schools in Utah?A.About seven months.B.About eight months.C.About nine months.D.About ten months.4.The article is probably taken from ______.A.a book about one's life storyB.an official website of educationC.an advertisement in a newspaperD.a sports magazine2、Mom was a teacher most of her life. When she wasn’t in the classroom, she was educating her children or grandchildren; correcting our grammar; starting us off on collections of butterflies, flowers or rocks; or inspiring a discussion on her most recent “Book of the Month Club” topic. Mom made learning fun.It was sad for my three brothers and me to see her suffering in her later years. At eighty-five, she suffered a stroke (中风) and she went steadily downhill after that.Two days before she died, my brothers and I met at her nursing home and took her for a short ride in a wheelchair. While we waited for the staff to lift her limp body back into bed, Mom fell asleep. Not wanting to wake her, we moved to the far end of the room and spoke softly.After several minutes our conversation was interrupted by a muffled sound coming from across the room. We stopped talking and looked at Mom. Her eyes were closed, but she was clearly trying to communicate with us. We went to her side.“Whrr,” she said weakly.“Where?” I asked. “Mom, is there something you want?” “Whrr,’’ she repeated a bit stronger. My brothers and I looked at each other and shook our heads sadly.Mom opened her eyes, sighed, and with all the energy she could gather said, “Not...was. Say were!”We suddenly realized that Mom was correcting Brother Jim’s last sentence, “if it was up to me.”Jim leaned down and kissed her cheek. “Thanks, Mom,” he whisper ed. We smiled at each other and once again shook our heads.1. What do the underlined words "went steadily downhill" in the 2nd paragraph mean?A. went lower and lowerB. went worse and worseC. went down the hillD. went downstairs2. What do we know about Mom?A.

at the airport for a flight to Chongqing.4.上周36个人组成了这个俱乐部。
last week.5.她拒绝就那个事件发表看法。
the incident.If you’re planning on travelling,there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.First of all,always check and double-check departure(出发) time.It is amazing how few people really do this carefully.Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten.My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50.When I arrived at the airport,the clerk at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed.Therefore,I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards,it is still important to have at least a little of the local currency(货币) with you when you arrive in a country.This can be necessary if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit.A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa,Oklahoma.I flew there from London via(经由) Dallas,with very little time to change planes in between.I arrived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed.The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had no dollars,I offered to pay in pounds instead.“Listen!I only take real money!”the driver said angrily.Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel,but it was very embarrassing(令人难堪的).The third and last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave.I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suits and raincoats in May,when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester,to places like Athens,Rome or Madrid,where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day.1.According to the passage,it’s obvious that .A.the author learns some rules of travelling from his own experienceB.the author doesn’t plan his trips or journeys carefullyC.Englishmen like to wear heavy suits wherever they travel“Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten.”以及第三段的“A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa...”等可推知答案。
