Unit 4  Astronomy: the science of the stars導學案

    文章用海明威的例子來說明一個問題：當生活給你一個打擊，你就借勢向前。1. d        通讀全文可知“不應該把所有的壞運氣都看作壞事”(它也許是推動你前進的一次機會或者動力)。根據此意需要選 d項 2. d        根據文章最后一段可以得到提示：“when life gives you a kick, let it kick you forwards!” 當生活給你一個打擊，你就借勢向前。 3. a     海明威通過這個“厄運”學到了一些東西。學到了 / 學會了要用learn表達。 4. b        從第四段最后一句“hemingway did rewrite the stories and eventually became a world-famous writer.”可知在他丟書稿的時候他尚未成名，所以是在努力(struggling)當中。 5. c     即將出版的書稿丟了，這對尚未成名的海明威來說不啻是一次災難(disaster)。 6. c       這幾個月的辛勤勞動的成果就這樣付諸東流了(simply wasted)。 7. a        他向朋友哭訴時，朋友卻認為這是運氣（fortune）。從下文他勸告海明威重新來寫作并且取得成功可以看出來。 8. a        忘記那些不太有印象的東西，這些也是小說里不怎么重要或不精彩的(weak)部分。weak與the best相對。 9. b        朋友鼓勵他要樂觀(optimism)，要有自信心(confidence)，而confidence與optimism并列，表達相近的意思。 10. c      從前一句的 “don’t pray for fewer problems; pray for more ability.”可知不是要祈禱問題會減少，而應該去起到自己獲得更大的能力。那么，下一句：不是祈禱少一些挑戰，而應該祈禱自己具備更高的智慧 (greater wisdom)來應對這些挑戰。不是尋找一個簡單的解決途徑，而是要可能的最佳的方法。 2.語法填空 閱讀下面短文，按照句子結構的語法性和上下文連貫的要求，在空格處填入一個適當的詞或使用括號中詞語的正確形式填空，并將答案填寫在答題卡標號為1—10的相應位置上。 字數：143完成時間：8分鐘難度：    on wednesday morning at eleven o'clock, i was walking down main street. i had just parked my car. suddenly i heard two shots. i thought they   1   (come) from the bank. i ran toward the bank. i saw a man   2   (come) out. he was short and fat   3   a big moustache. more   4   (importance),he had a bag of money and a gun in his hands!   5   i could do anything, he ran up the street   6   disappeared behind a bus.     that afternoon i went to the movies.   7   happened?
