Sometime in the future, the familiar early-morning newspaper on the front porch(门廊) will disappear. And instead of 36 your newspaper, it will read to you.

You will even get to 41 the kind of voice you want to hear. Want 42 information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text 43. Save it in your own personal 44 if you like. These are among the predictions from communications experts working 45 the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home-based media and entertainment systems, computer 46 would unite print and broadcast reporting, 47 news and analysis with video images of news events.

Technology is making the 53 of traditional newspapers unavoidable.

Growing numbers of people are becoming addicted to (上瘾) text messaging, a German doctor warned recently.

Psychotherapist(采用精神疗法的医生) Andreas Herter estimated that there were some 380,000 sufferers in Germany. Herter based his prediction on the growing number of manic mobile phone users among patients arriving at his Hanover clinic for addiction treatment.

“Text message addiction is a real and serious illness because it causes mental and financial damage,” said Herter. “The problem leads to depression and personality disorders, not to mention skyrocketing phone bills.”

For example, a teenage boy spent 8,900 euros (US$11,000) texting people he didn’t even know and a married couple could only communicate by text message, even when they were sitting side by side.

56. The passage is mainly to tell us ______.

A. why people like text messaging

B. text messaging has many advantages

C. overusing text message does great harm

D. text messaging does no good

57. Herter thinks text message addiction is ______.

A. acceptable B. easy to deal with

C. worrying D. unreasonable

58. The examples given in the last paragraph are used to show ______.

A. sending text message is their only hobby

B. they care about nothing else but text message

C. text message addiction is a serious disease

D. they are very rich

B

A proud US father has named his son after a computer software term(术语).

Jon Blake Cusack, from Mocjogam, told the local newspaper the US traditional way of adding “Junior” or “II” after a boy’s name was too common.

So, when his son was born last week, he decided on the name Jon Blake Cusack 2.0, as if he were a software upgrade(升级版).

Mr Cusack admitted that it took months to persuade his wife, Jamie, to accept the idea.

Mrs Cusack said she asked several friends whether they can accept this name or not.

All the men, she said, felt the name was “cool”. However, her women friends did not think so. “I think the women will end up liking it,” she said.

Mr Cusack told the local newspaper he got the idea from a film called The Legend of 1900, in which an abandoned (被抛弃的) baby is given the name 1900 to remember the year of its birth.

“I thought that if they can do it, why can’t we?” he said.

After little Jon Version 2.0 was born, Mr Cusack even sent a celebratory e-mail to the family and friends designed to look as though he and his wife had created new software.

“I wrote things like ‘there are a lot of new features(特点) from Version 1.0 with additional(其他的) features from Jamie’,” he said. And he is already planning for his son’s future. “If he has a child, he could name it 3.0,” he said.

59. From the passage we know that “Jon Blake Cusack 2.0” ______.

A. shows the traditional way of American baby naming

B. is also the name of a computer software

C. has the same meaning as “Jon Blake Cusack Junior”

D. tells something about the hope the father places on his baby

60. According to Jamie, who disliked the name?

A. All her friends. B. Her women friends.

C. Her men friends. D. Nobody.

61. What do the names of “1900” and “Jon Version 2.0” have in common?

A. They’re both uncommon.

B. They’re both connected with computer.

C. They both tell about the births.

D. They’re to be equally popular.

62. What does “Version 1.0” refer to in the last paragraph?

A. A computer software. B. Mr Cusack.

C. Mr Cusack and his wife.

D. Mr Cusack’s grandson.

C

Not very long ago, the computer was a strange machine. Not many people understood it. Not many people said yes to it. Today much of that is changing. The first computer system was introduced for use in business in the mid-1950s. Since then, the number of computer systems used in business, government offices, and institutions has grown rapidly. In 1975, about 250, 000 systems were in use in the United States. This figure is growing by tens of thousands every year.

The computer is an important factor in our lives. Each year we use computer more and more to help us to collect data and to provide us with information. At one time people thought computers were only useful to banks, department stores and governments. But today the rapidly increasing number of computers are used for many other purposes. Have you ever stopped to think how you are affected(影响) by a computer? The clothes you wear were probably made with the help of a computer. The newspaper you read could have been edited and typed by a computer. Even radio programmes are often prepared by computers.

Computers today are playing important roles in education, transportation and medicine. They are used to predict the weather, to examine the ocean, and to develop defense systems. They are being used by businesses, governments and institutions. There is no doubt that their uses will become a greater part of our lives.

The influence(影响) of the computer is great. The list of its uses could go on and on. Computers now affect millions of people in countless ways every day.

63. Before the l950s the computer was _______.

A. widely used B. no use at all

C. not understood by many people D. liked by people

64. The writer thinks our lives are affected by computers, but we _______.

A. don’t quite notice it B. have known it clearly

C. don’t want to know about it

D. don’t like it

65. Although the first computer system was only introduced in the mid-l950s, computers now affect millions of people in countless ways every day. This means the

writer _______.

A. doesn’t like computers B. likes computers

C. thinks computers have developed rapidly

D. thinks we can’t live without computers

The next Saturday when the doorbell of their home rang, Tyrus, not 42 the surprise, opened the door and his face 43 up. “Mom,” he cried. “Cartoon Network is here!”

From early times, man has been interested in art. People have often worked together to collect and save the world’s art treasures.

Fine art treasures from many countries are kept in an art museum called the Louvre(卢浮宫) in Paris, France. The works of art have been collected by the people of France over many centuries. It is the biggest art museum in the world.

The Louvre has not always been a museum. The first building was a fort(城堡). In 1190, it was the king’s castle with high walls and a round tower. It had a moat(护城河) to keep out the enemies.

Over the years, the number of buildings around the castle grew. By 1350, the castle no longer needed a fort. The Louvre became a palace home for French kings and queens.

During time of peace, new treasures were brought in. During the days of war, many treasures were stolen, and the buildings were damaged.

When Francis I became king of France in 1515, he brought in many artists from other countries. One of the artists was Leonardo da Vinci from Italy. Da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa” is the best-known painting in the museum today.

In 1793, the Louvre became a public museum, just as it is now. It is a place where art treasures are kept for everyone to enjoy. Every year millions of people from all over the world come to the Louvre to see the masterpieces.

56. How long has the Louvre been a public museum?

A. For over 800 years. B. Since 1350.

C. Since 1515. D. For over 200 years.

57. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. Da Vinci once stayed in France.

B. “Mona Lisa” is kept in the Louvre.

C. The Louvre was once a church as well as a palace.

D. The Louvre is a place of interest to different peoplefrom all over the world.

58. The passage is mainly about ______.

A. an art museum called the Louvre

B. an Italian artist named Leonardo da Vinci

C. a king of France named Francis I

D. the best-known painting in the Louvre

B

The medical world is gradually realizing that the quality of the environment in hospitals may play an important role in the process of recovery from illness.

As part of a nationwide effort in Britain to bring art out of the galleries(陈列室) and into public places, some of the country’s best-known artists have been called in to change older hospitals and to soften the hard edges of modern buildings. Of the 2, 500 National Health Service hospitals in Britain, almost 100 now have valuable collections of contemporary(当代的) art in corridors, waiting areas and treatment rooms.

These recent movements owe a great deal to one artist, Peter Senior, who set up his studio at a Manchester hospital in northeastern England during the early 1970s. He felt the artist had lost their places in modern society and that art should be enjoyed by a wider audience.

A common hospital waiting room might have as many as 5, 000 visitors each week. What a better place to hold regular exhibitions of art! Senior held the first exhibition of his own paintings in the out-patients waiting area of the Manchester Royal Hospital in 1975. Believed to be Britain’s first hospital artist, Senior was so much in demand that he was soon joined by a team of six young art school graduates.

The effect is striking. Now in the corridors and waiting rooms the visitor experiences a full view of fresh colours, playful images and restful courtyards.

The quality of the environment may reduce the need for expensive drugs when a patient is recovering from an illness. A study has shown that patients who had a view onto a garden needed half the number of strong pain killers compared with patients who had no view at all or only brick wall to look at.

59. According to the passage, we can learn that Peter Senior is _____.

A. a doctor interested in art

B. an artist who refuses to hold art exhibitions in hospitals

C. a pioneer in introducing art into hospitals

D. an artist who is very rich

60. According to Peter Senior, we can infer that ______.

A. modern hospitals have lost a lot of patients

B. art is not enjoyed by a large number of people in modern society

C. patients should be encouraged to learn painting

D. artists can not find their positions in modern society

61. Six young art school graduates joined Peter Senior because ______.

A. they thought Peter Senior’s idea was very exciting

B. Peter Senior needed artists more intelligent than him

C. they wanted to enjoy Peter Senior’s popularity

D. more and more hospitals need artists to improve their environment

62. The underlined word “striking”(in Paragraph 5) probably means “______”.

A. common B. unusual C. attractive D. valuable

C

Why is Harry so hot?

There is plenty for children and grown-ups to enjoy in Rowling’s books, starting with their language. Her prose may be unadorned (朴实的), but her way with naming people and things shows an original talent(才能).

The best writers remember what it is like to be a child with surprising intensity(强烈). Time and again, Rowling describes just how defenseless(无助的) even the bravest children often feel. Near the end of the second book Dumbledore, the wise and protective headmaster, is banished(赶走) from Hogwarts. This frightens Harry and his schoolmates -“With Dumbledore gone, fear had spread as never before” - and it frightened me. And in all of Rowling’s books there runs an undercurrent(隐藏的情绪) of sadness and loss. In the first book Harry stares into the Mirror of Erised, which shows the viewer his or her utmost desires. Harry sees his dead parents. “Not until I’d reread what I’d written did I realize that that had been taken completely - completely - from how I felt about my mother’s death,” Rowling said. “In fact, death and losing one’s parent and what death means, I would say, is one of the central themes(主题) in all seven books.” The book would have their broad interest if they were only exciting tales of magical adventure, and grown-ups would not find them so attractive.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Harry is so hot.

63. According to the writer, why is Harry so hot?

A. The story is full of magic.

B. There is plenty for children and adults to enjoy.

C. The language is beautiful.

D. Death is the central theme in the book.

64. What does the underlined word “promise” (in Paragraph 1) probably mean?

A. To tell someone you will certainly do something.

B. To make something seem likely.

C. To be sure to do something.

D. To think that something is true.

65. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is the fourth Harry Potter book.

B. Only children are interested in the Harry Potter books.

C. What Rowling writes in the book has no relation with herself.

D. Rowling’s way with naming people and things is very common.

篇3:浅谈英语单元测试的选题策略

一、选题要有代表性

在英语教材中, 各个单元的知识点是为数不少的, 包括语言知识 (如词汇、语法、句型等) 和文化知识, 也包括已知的知识和未知的知识。虽然教材有计划地、相对集中地介绍了相关的语言和文化知识, 但是为了检测学生在学习相关的知识后, 能否付诸于运用, 这就要求命题者在有限的测试题目中容纳尽可能多的信息。因此, 命题者可以提出若干个预选命题方案, 然后借助预测测试的结果, 对不同的方案进行横向或者纵向的比较, 再选出具有重点与非重点、能力与非能力、重点与能力等有代表性的题目。通常情况下, 代表性的题目包含重点题、典型题以及综合运用题等, 它们可以体现在不同的题型中。但是, 命题者不能将语言信息或语言信息的测试的代表性建立在超量 (如题目长、生词多) 观念上。代表性的题目只有在“抓纲务本”的精神指导下, 才能达到以点带面、触类旁通的效果, 才能体现出语言测试的特点。

二、选题要有针对性

在英语教材中, 单元教学内容的安排也体现了“秩序渐进、循环反复”的带有针对性的特点。事实上, 对以英语作为第二语言的中学生而言, 由于学习策略的效度的差异性, 学生往往会对一些知识存在理解上或应用上的缺陷或疑惑, 所以命题者的选题要能够让学生在一定程度上能借助于测试的手段观察、发现、探索和研究其自身语言学习上的差异。比如说, 当今的中学英语语言测试体系不能体现出学生“说”的能力, 所以命题者在选题的过程中, 要切合语用学的实际, 参照“任务型”教学活动目标, 有意识、有策略地通过单元测试的题型的转变, 将“说”的能力测试融于“听”的测试中。这样的单元测试的命题导向就是针对学生之缺, 了解学生之愁。还有, 命题者要结合教学实际中的学生在平时作业中的“常见病”和“多发病”, 选

的兴趣, 教师要认真钻研教材, 根据教学内容的不同, 如初学、巩固和复习, 就不能用一样的方法, 这就要求教师付出心血, 不断地探索, 不断地追求。在教学中, 这应该是教师大有作为的地方。

比如教26个字母说起来很简单, 但真正教得快、教得准、教得好, 让学生学得有趣味, 也并非每一位教师都能做到的。有人照本宣科, 每次几个字母, 依次教完就过去了。也有人把字母做成卡片让学生做字母排队游戏, 分组进行字母排队比赛, 教唱字母歌。这样做学生学得快而好, 还锻炼了学生的观察能力、反应灵敏能力和集体观念。

教师教句子时, 开始可进行听力比赛, 看谁最先说出所听的句子, 看谁读得好。进而进行单词组句比赛等, 都可提高学生兴趣, 比老师一遍一遍地讲, 学生一遍一遍地读, 效果好得多。

教师教课文时, 可根据不同体裁和内容在不同阶段上, 采用模编一些“对症下药”的治病题, 这也是具有针对性意义的。比如:feel like与would like的用法的差异性就可以成为测试的内容。

三、选题要有灵活性

在英语单元测试中的灵活性是指在一类的题目中容纳了多个知识点或能力点的考查, 并训练了学生运用“一题多思”的思维方式。由于当今的英语教学模式侧重于“任务型”和“交际型”的活动, 这就要求学生具备能在不同层次、不同形式的情境中, 综合应用语言知识完成语言任务的能力;这也就要求测试题目能体现出不同知识点之间纵横联系, 能检测学生的综合分析问题和解决问题的能力。也就是说测试题的灵活性要起到影响试题区分指数的作用, 这也就有利于指导教师将来的授课行为, 有利于培养学生的解题思维。比如说, 完形填空的空白就显示了对两种语言模式 (一者是作者表达自己的思想的语言模式, 另一者是读者根据自己的理解作出的猜测性语言模式) 和一种测试意图 (命题者的测试目的) , 避免了就题论题的俗套。当然, 命题的灵活性的特征要体现在与教材关联性上, 并不是指“难”“偏”“怪”。

四、选题要有科学性

一份高质量的英语单元测试试卷并不是题目的堆砌, 而是建立在科学性和合理性的基础上的语言信息 (包括知识和能力) 的检测。它必须达到巩固知识和培养能力甚至引导未来教学活动的目的。一个单元的知识体系, 在语言知识上要学生追求多方位, 在学习能力上对学生讲究多层次。所以在英语单元测试中, 以此为基础的单元测试的选题也要体现出以系统性和整体性为内涵的科学性。命题者只有在熟悉教学大纲和课程标准的双重前提下, 才可能使试卷将单元测试的内容有效地包容并形成一定的可行性和可信性的效能, 才能促进学生通过英语测试对英语学习的内容进行控制管理, 从而有效地学习。同时, 科学性也必须体现在量和数的合理分配上。

五、选题要注意训练学生的思维策略

为了让学生加强英语学习的自主性, 英语新教材也体现了训练思维的策略, 所以英语单元测试也应该体现出英语思维的策略性, 如排除法、分析法、比较法等。试题中一定程度地突出解题方法的训练可以培养学生的综合测试的能力。这些有选择性和弹性的策略, 可以避免学生对英语产生“英语的学习就是大量地重复地做题”的错觉, 可以避免学生的思维僵化。这也有助于学生能举一反三地运用英语语言中的认知策略、调控策略、交际策略和资源策略, 有效地提高学习效率。

(乐清市虹桥镇一中)

拟对话、扮演角色、讲故事、述大意、改变人称、变对话为叙述、变叙述为对话, 即兴口头作文、看图说话、组句成文等多种形式。这样就会把死教材活用, 学生学得兴趣浓, 用的机会多, 效果非常好。

四、课内外相结合

外语教学应主要放在课内, 向45分钟要质量。但要学好英语光靠每周几次英语课是不够的, 所以, 我们还要大力开展课外教学活动。教师可根据不同的班级、不同层次、不同水平、不同爱好的同学, 进行适当地组织。比如, 有目地的培养骨干, 开展英语游戏、演唱会、朗诵会、讲演比赛、识词默写比赛、作文比赛、听力比赛等, 既可各班进行, 也可同年级、全校进行。其目的是活跃学生课外生活, 巩固课内所学知识, 创造英语的气氛, 培养学生学英语的兴趣, 使课内外紧密结合, 相得益彰。

篇4:高一下册英语单元测试题

◆in order to 为了……

课文原句:In order to survive, Chuck develops a friendship with an unusual friend — a volleyball he calls Wilson.

In order to后接动词原形,多在句中作状语,表目的。这个词组经常和so as to放在一起考查,所以一定要弄清二者的区别与联系。In order to 和so as to 都表示“为了”,都作目的状语,都有时态和语态的变化:其一般现在时或将来时的主动语态为to do;完成时态则用to have done;一般现在时和完成时的被动语态则分别用to be done和to have been done。二者的区别在于:so as to一般不放于句首,而in order to 放在句首、句中和句尾均可。

真题演练:

All these gifts must be mailed immediately ____ in time for Christmas. (2005辽宁)

A. in order to have received

B. in order to receive

C. so as to be received

D. so as to be receiving

解析:本题考查的是in order to和so as to作目的状语时的语态。很明显句中“礼物是被收到的”,应使用被动语态,而A、B、D三个选项都不是被动语态,只有C选项正确。整句话的意思是:所有这些礼物必须马上寄出去,以便(收件人)圣诞节时能及时收到。

◆should have done 本应做(某事)

课文原句:He also learns that he should have cared more about his friends.

Should have done表示“本来应该做某事但实际没有做”,含有责备的意味。在这里的意思是:他认识到他本来应该多关心他的朋友,但事实上他没有做到。其否定形式shouldn't have done则表示“本不该做某事,却做了”,如:I feel sick. I shouldn't have eaten a lot. (我觉得难受。我本不应该吃那么多)。此外,情态动词may/must/can后接完成时态,也可表推测,如:have done表示对过去的推测;may have done表示过去可能做了某事;must have done表示过去肯定做了某事,语气较may have done更为肯定;can't have done表示过去不可能做了某事。使用时一定要注意区分。

真题演练:

Mr. White ____ at 8:30 for the meeting, but he didn't show up. (2004全国)

A. should have arrived B. should arrive

C. should have had arrivedD. should be arriving

解析:本题考查的就是should have done的用法,这句话的意思是:怀特先生本来八点半就应该到会场的,但是他没有出现。整句话用的是一般过去时态,表示过去应该做某事,但实际上没做,用should have done暗含一定的责备意味,选A。

◆so... that + 从句如此……以至于……

课文原句:Chuck is a businessman who is always so busy that he has little time for his friends.

这是结果状语从句最典型的句型之一,原文中定语从句的意思是:他这么忙,很少有时间和朋友们交流。其实在高考中经常考到的结果状语从句除了such... that,还有so...that。二者引导结果状语从句有所不同,要注意区分。

So引导的结果状语从句有:

1) So + 形容词 + a/an + 单数可数名词 + that从句,如:He is so good a student that all teachers like him. 他是这么好的一个学生,所有的老师都喜欢他。

2) So + many/much/few/little(表数量) + 复数可数名词或不可数名词 + that从句,如:There is so much water in the bucket that he can hardly lift it out of the well. 桶里有这么多水,他几乎无法从井里把水提上来。

Such引导的结果状语从句有:

1) Such + a/an + 形容词 + 单数可数名词 + that从句,如:It was such a moving film that he burst into tears. 这部电影如此感人,他的眼泪夺眶而出。

2) Such + 形容词 + 名词复数/不可数名词 + that从句,如:It's such fine weather that most of us want to go on an outing. 天气这么好,我们大多数人都想出去玩。

总之,判断到底是由so还是由such引导结果状语从句,关键是要抓住紧接so/such后的词是形容词(副词)还是由形容词修饰的名词,前者用so引导,后者由such引导。

真题演练:

We were in ________ when we left that we forgot the airline tickets. (2003上海)

A. a rush so anxious

B. a such anxious rush

C. so an anxious rush

D. such an anxious rush

解析:本题考查的就是so和such引导的结果状语从句,要注意so和such后面的语序,so后面紧接形容词构成so + adj. + a/an + 可数名词单数,而such后的语序则为:such+ a/an + adj. + n.,只有D选项的语序是正确的,符合语法结构。

[Unit 2]

◆except for 除了……以外

课文原句:In China students learn English at school as a foreign language, except for those in Hong Kong, where many people speak English as a first or a second language.

Except for 意思是“除了”,后面一般接名词。在这句话中,except for后面的those指代的是香港学生。Except for从“中国学生”这个整体中排除了“香港学生”这部分。 但“those”一般指代较近的名词,所以这句话最好改为“English is learnt as a foreign language by all the chinese students at school, except for those...”

在高考题中,要区分四个表示“除了”的词:except/but/besides/except for。Except/but用法相同,表示“除了……以外”,用于同类事物的排除,后面可接名词、介词短语或that从句,如:We have lessons every day except/but Sunday. (除了周日,我们每天都有课)。Except for是从整体中排除,但排除的是不同类的事物,后面接名词,如:I like your apartment except for the decoration. (我喜欢你的公寓,除了装修)。Besides意思是“除了……之外还有”,包括所排除的部分,后面多接名词,如:She helps to cook and wash besides looking after the child. (她除了要照看小孩,还要帮着做饭和洗衣)。

真题演练:

The suit fitted him well ____ the color was a little brighter. (2005 上海)

A. except for B. except that

C. except when D. besides

解析:本题考查的是except和besides的用法,空格后面是一个完整句子the color was a little brighter,只有except后面可以接that从句,besides不可以接从句,因此只有B选项正确。同样,A选项错在except for后面多接名词,不接句子。

◆come about 出现,发生,产生

课文原句:How did this difference come about?

Come about表示“出现”或“产生”时,相当于happen,是一个不及物动词,后面一般不接宾语。与come有关的词组还有很多,如:come across突然想起来,偶遇;come along一起来,跟着来;come back回来,苏醒;come by从旁走过,得到。

真题演练:

It's already 10 o'clock, I wonder how it ____ that she was two hours late on such a short trip. (2006 湖北)

A. came overB. came out

C. came aboutD. came up

解析:本题考查的就是come组成的短语。根据题意:现在已经十点了,我想知道她怎么走如此短的路程要迟到两个小时。How it come about意思是“怎么发生的?”“怎么可能?”;come about作不及物动词,相当于“happen”,表示偶然发生;it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的that从句。其余几项意思分别为:come over过来,顺便来访;come out结果是,出版;come up 走近,显现,出现,均不符合题意。选C。

[Unit 3]

◆see sb. off 为某人送行

课文原句:Is anybody seeing you off?

See sb. off 意思是“为某人送行”,如果sb. 是代词,则放在see和off之间;如果sb. 是名词,则既可放在see和off之间,也可放于off之后。易混淆的词组有see about(料理)、see to(照料)。

真题演练:

John is leaving for London tomorrow and I will ____ him ___ at the airport. (2005 广东)

A. send away B. leave off

C. see offD. show around

解析:根据语境暗示:约翰明天就要离开伦敦了,那我去机场自然应该是送他。为某人送行用see off。A选项是“派遣,打发”之意;B选项是“从……中去除”,D选项的意思是“带领某人参观”,均不符合题意。选C。

◆unless引导的条件状语从句

课文原句:You should not go rafting unless you know how to swim, and you should always wear a life jacket.

Unless意为“除非,如果不”,引导条件状语从句,相当于“If...not...”,后接表示条件的句子,且所接的句子要用肯定形式(不能用包含not的双重否定),翻译为“如果不……就不……”,或者“除非……才能……”,如:You will miss the bus unless you get up early. (除非你早点儿起床,你才能赶上公交车)。另外,这句话中的should表示一种警戒或劝告。

真题演练:

We won't keep winning games ____ we keep playing well. (2006 浙江)

A. becauseB. unless

C. when D. while

解析:本题考查的是连词的用法。根据语境,这句话要表达的意思是:如果不继续好好打下去,我们就不会在比赛中一直赢。“如果不……就不……”,应选用B项unless,引导条件状语从句。Because引导原因状语从句;when多引导时间状语从句;while多引导时间状语从句或让步状语从句,均不符合题意。

◆that引导的同位语从句

课文原句:The name "whitewater" comes from the fact that the water in these streams and rivers looks white when it moves quickly.

That引导的同位语从句多作fact/news/explanation等抽象名词的同位语,即that后面用一个完整的句子来说明前面那个名词的具体内容,此时,that在句子中不作任何成分且不可省略。需要注意的是,that也可以引导定语从句。判断that引导的是同位语从句还是定语从句,要看that在从句中是否作成分:如果没作成分则引导的是同位语从句,如果作成分则引导的是定语从句。同时还需注意:that引导定语从句时,若作从句的主语则不可省,但作从句的宾语时,可省。

Along with the letter was his promise ____ he would visit me this coming Christmas. (2004上海春)

A. which B. thatC. whatD. whether

The story of how the song “Happy Birthday to You” came into being, began as a sweet one, which later soured. Two sisters, Mildred Hill, a teacher at the Louisville, Kentucky Experimental Kindergarten, and Dr. Patty Hill, the principal of the same school, together wrote a song for the children, entitled “Good Morning to All”. When Mildred combined her musical talents with her sister’s expertise in the area of Kindergarten Education, “Good Morning to All” was sure to be a success. The sisters published the song in a collection entitled “Song Stories of the Kindergarten” in 1893. Twenty-one years later, after Dr. Patty Hill became the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia University’s Teacher College, a gentleman by the name of Robert H. Coleman published the song, without the sisters’ permission. To add insult(侮辱) to injury, he added a second verse, the familiar “Happy Birthday to You”.

Mr. Coleman’s addition of the second verse popularized the song and, finally, the sisters’ original first verse disappeared. “Happy Birthday to You”, the one and only birthday song, had altogether replaced the sisters’ original title, “Good Morning to All”.

After Mildred died in 1916, Patty, together with a third sister named Jessica, took Mr. Coleman to court. In court, they proved that they, indeed, owned the melody(曲调). Because the family legally owns the song, it is entitled to royalties(版税) from it, whenever it is sung for commercial purposes.

He is only 20 years old, but has already had five years of experience in the world of entertainment. He is Edison Chan(陈冠希).

Edison Chan has attracted much attention since joining entertainment circles. His attractive appearance has certainly helped, but he’s also received help from heavyweights like the Chairman of Emperor Entertainment Albert Yueng and superstar Jackie Chan. Even late movie and pop idol(偶像) Leslie Cheung (张国荣) once wrote songs for him.

With such support, Edison slid easily into the industry - singing, acting and filming in commercials. He soon became one of Hong Kong’s most popular rising stars. His big break came with his performance in “Infernal Affairs”. Another milestone was “Twins Effect”, which took over 15 million Hong Kong dollars in its opening week.

Edison had always dreamt of being a basketball player, but he was forced by his father to model and act from an early age. When he was 15 years old, he shot a commercial with Hong Kong superstar Leon Lai(黎明), which attracted the attention of Emperor Entertainment.

But not satisfied with acting alone, Edison has turned his hand to singing. He is finding time between shoots to make his album and music video. He said he thoroughly enjoys himself when he’s busy working.

This young boy said, “I think that now I can better understand what it is to be an actor and know more about the media(媒体). I’ve changed a lot since I first entered the circle. Therefore I will try my best to keep up a good relationship with the media. But they should know there are always some things I can’t say. Sometimes they say things that aren’t true, but I don’t care. I hope they can realize I’m also an ordinary person. ”

With this “I don’t care” attitude, Edison has built his career on his public image of being a cool, bad boy.

63. Which of the following is NOT the reason for Edison Chan’s success?

A. His good looks.

B. The help from some famous people.

C. His own efforts.

D. His young age.

64. What can we learn about Edison Chan from the passage?

A. He wanted to be an actor as a young boy.

B. He doesn’t like singing.

C. He doesn’t care what the media says.

D. He is a bad boy.

65. What is the best title for the passage?

A. The Secret of Edison Chan’s Success

B. Idol of Today in Entertainment World: Edison Chan

C. I Don’t Care

D. Edison Chan and Media

Dear Li Hua,

How is everything with you? I am happy to see the winter holiday is coming. I’ve decided to travel to Egypt this winter. As is known to all, it is a mysterious country with a long history, where tourists can enjoy the beauty of pyramids and get to know the secret of mummies. Being one of the origins of the ancient civilization, it attracts tourists from all parts of the world every year. Also, the scenery along the Nile is perfectly wonderful and people can go white-water rafting there. Although it might be a tiring and dangerous trip, it is worthwhile. As a young man, I think we should experience some adventures in our life. I have got everything ready, would you like to go with me?

Yours sincerely,
