Ⅱ.阅读理解
(2010·湖北八校第二次联考)
Every people has their own way of saying things，their own special expressions.Many everyday American expressions are based on colors.
Red is a hot color.Americans often use it to express heat.They may say they are red hot about something unfair.When they are red hot they are very angry about something.The small hot tasting peppers found in many Mexican foods are called red hots for their color and their fiery taste.Fast loud music is popular with many people.They may say the music is red hot，especially the kind called Dixieland jazz.
Pink is a lighter kind of red.People sometimes say they are in the pink when they are in good health.The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the twentieth century.It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health.
Blue is a cool color.The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite of red hot music.Blues is slow，sad and soulful.Duke Ellington and his orchestra recorded a famous song—Mood Indigo—about the deep blue color，indigo.In the words of the song：“You aren’t blue till you’ve had that Mood Indigo.” Someone who is blue is very sad.
The color green is natural for trees and grass.But it is an unnatural color for humans.A person who has a sick feeling stomach may say she feels a little green.A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green.
Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as a friend has，like a fast new car.That person may say he is green with envy.Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars or greenbacks.Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the color of the back side of the paper money.
The color black is used often in expressions.People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day.The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day.A blacklist is illegal now.But at one time，some businesses refused to employ people who were on a blacklist for belonging to unpopular organizations.
1．If you had your wallet stolen while doing some shopping，you may call it________.
A．a white day B．a black day
C．a red day D．a green day
2．Suppose a Mr Brown says he is very happy because his three children are all in the pink，this means all his children are________.
A．lucky and wealthy B．gentle and modest
C．fit and healthy D．creative and energetic
3．When she got home and found nothing had been done by her husband，Jane was really________.
A．red hot B．green
C．blue D．black
4．In the following paragraph，the writer might tell the reader something about________.
A．unpopular organizations in the world
B．people’s response towards a black day
C．the influence of the traditional blues
D．more words about a color，such as brown
Ⅲ.任务型读写
(安徽名校2011届高三第一次联考)
About six years ago，I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table.I couldn’t help overhearing parts of their conversation.At one point the woman asked，“So，how have you been？” And the boy—who could not have been more than seven or eight years old replied，“Frankly，I’ve been feeling a little depressed lately.”
This incident (小事) stuck in my mind because it confirmed my growing belief that children are changing.As far as I can remember，my friends and I hardly found out we were “depressed” until we were in high school.
The evidence of changes in children has increased steadily in recent years.Children don’t seem childlike anymore.Children speak more like adults，dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to.
Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say，but it certainly is different.Childhood as it once was no longer exists.Why?
Human development is based not only on natural biological states，but also on patterns of access to social knowledge.Movement from one social role to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new situation.Children have always been taught adult secrets，but slowly and in gradual stages：traditionally，we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders.
In the past 30 years，however，a secretrevelation (提示) machine has been installed in 98 percent of American homes.It is called television.Television passes information，and indiscriminately (不加区分地)，to all viewers alike，whether they are children or adults.Unable to resist the temptation (诱惑)，many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging，more vivid moving pictures.
Communication through print，as a matter of fact，allows for a great deal of control over the social information to which children have access.Reading and writing involve a complex code of symbols that must be memorized and practiced.Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.
Title：1.________in Today’s Children
Main comparisons
Contexts
Different
2．________
Children in the past just did what they were 3.________to.
Children today act as if they were 4.______.
Different
5．________

Sometimes sadness 7.________to children nowadays.

8．________to

9．________and guided stages.
Children nowadays get some knowledge by
10．________TV without control.

课时作业(三十一)答案
Ⅰ.单项填空
1．解析： 句意为：2010年3月28日当矿井发生可怕的事故时，营救队没有放弃营救被埋在地下矿工的希望，幸运的是，115人获救。abandon one’s hope放弃希望，buried为过去分词作定语修饰coal miners。
答案： A
2．解析： 考查形容词辨析。precious宝贵的，珍贵的；precise准确的，精确的；troublesome引起麻烦的；apparent明显的，显而易见的。句意为：我们无论怎么感激汤姆的宝贵建议都不为过。
答案： A
3．解析： 考查代词。四个选项中，只有it可以作形式宾语，whether we would put off the journey or not是真正的宾语。
答案： A
4．解析： 考查形容词短语作状语。hungry and tired是形容词短语作状语。句意为：工作了一整天，我们都回到家，又饿又累。
答案： B
5．解析： 考查固定句型。and后面的句型结构为“the＋比较级＋陈述句，the＋比较级＋陈述句”，表示“越……就越……”。句意为：我认为，教育是关于学习的事，你学得越多，你对生活准备得就越充分。
答案： B
6．解析： 考查省略。While waiting for a longdistance call...是While I was waiting for a longdistance call...的省略形式。
答案： B
7．解析： 考查句子结构。referred to是过去分词短语作定语，修饰student。suggest作“建议”讲时，后接的that从句中用“should＋动词原形”，其中should可以省略。句意为：校长建议给提到的那个学生颁奖。
答案： B
8．解析： 考查定语从句。which引导非限制性定语从句，指代He is confident of what he is doing这个句子，in my opinion是插入语。

答案： D
10．解析： 考查虚拟语气。根据Without my knowledge of English和that day可推知，本句是对过去发生的事情的假设，故用“would have done”结构。

Thanks for all that you’ve done to us in these three years.It is you who open up our eyes and ignite our thirst for knowledge.When we were depressed by a difficult task or a conflict with our peers，it is you who come to us and guide us to be more openminded.When we get bored with the tight schedule，it is your humor that fills our class with laughter.
In about a year we will head for our future college life.We will bear in mind your words of wisdom and be determined to be a role model and a positive influence like you.
Thank you for listening.
