　　课时知能训练

　　Ⅰ.完形填空

　　You must burst into laughter when you hear your friends express their wishes to you by saying：“Good good study，day day up”，which is a most interesting sentence.When I first read the similar sentence “Long time no see” from an American friend's E­mail，I also laughed.I thought it was a perfect __1__ of Chinglish.Later on，my friend told me that it is a standard American __2__.I was too surprised.Her words could not __3__ me at all.So I did a search on www.google，com.To my surprise，there are over 60 thousand web pages __4__“long time no see”．This sentence has been __5__ used in E­mails，newspapers or any other __6__ places.Though it is informal，it is part of the language that Americans use daily.__7__，if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word，the software will tell you that the grammar needs correcting.

　　Nobody knows the __8__ of this Chinglish sentence.Some people __9__

　　that it came from Charlie Chan's movies.In the 1930s，Hollywood movie makers successfully __10__ a famous Chinese detective named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens，__11__ liked to teach Americans some Chinese __12__.“Long time no see” was his trademark.Soon it became a

　　__13__phrase.

　　Some scholars __14__ America to a huge pot of stew.All kinds of culture are mixed together，and they change the color and taste of each other.Language is usually the first thing to be __15__ in the mixed stew.

　　【语篇解读】　本文介绍“long time no see”的来源。有人认为是受好莱坞电影塑造的一个成功的中国侦探影响的结果，一些学者则认为是美国多元文化之间互相渗透的结果。

　　1．A.word　B．sign

　　C．example

　　D．signal

　　【解析】　这是一个典型的中国式英语的“例子(example)”。

　　【答案】　C

　　2．A.custom

　　B．greeting

　　C．habit

　　D．proverb

　　【解析】　朋友告诉我这是一个标准的美式“问候(greeting)”。

　　【答案】　B

　　3．A.ensure

　　B．persuade

　　C．convince

　　D．convey

　　【解析】　由下文的“So I did a search on www.google.com.”可知朋友的话根本没有使作者相信。convince意思是“使信服”。干扰项persuade的主语应该是人。

　　【答案】　C

　　4．A.publishing

　　B．printing

　　C．containing

　　D．expressing

　　【解析】　作者在网站上搜索了一下，惊奇地发现有六万多包含(containing)“long time no see”的网页。网页中的内容仅供浏览用，所以前两项错误；D项意为“表达”，语意不恰当。

　　【答案】　C

　　5．A.seldom

　　B．hardly

　　C．widely

　　D．deeply

　　【解析】　根据空格后面的内容(在电子邮件、报纸或者是任何一个其他可能的地方)可知这句话被“广泛”使用。

　　【答案】　C

　　6．A.important

　　B．possible

　　C．interesting

　　D．pleasant

　　【解析】　参见上题解析。

　　【答案】　B

　　7．A.Unfortunately

　　B．Luckily

　　C．Suddenly

　　D．However

　　【解析】　上一句提到尽管这句话有点不正式，但仍然是美国人日常用语中的一部分。而空格后面则是指Microsoft Word却认为这句话的语法是不正确的，是需要改正的。由此可判断空格处表示转折关系。

　　【答案】　D

　　8．A.use

　　B．meaning

　　C．expression

　　D．origin

　　【解析】　下文提到这句话可能的出处(...came from Charlie Chan's movies.)，由此可知没有人知道它的“来源(origin)”。

　　【答案】　D

　　9．A.believe

　　B．suggest

　　C．advise

　　D．tell

　　【解析】　句意：有人认为这句话来自陈查理的(Charlie Chan's)电影。

　　【答案】　A

　　10．A.did

　　B．published

　　C．created

　　D．discovered

　　【解析】　20世纪30年代，好莱坞电影制片人成功地“塑造(created)”了陈查理这个世界闻名的中国侦探形象。这个形象原来是没有的，是被创作出来的，所以要用create。而discover则是指初次看见本来已存在但以前未被发现的事物，意思是“发现”。

　　【答案】　C

　　11．A.who

　　B．which

　　C．whom

　　D．that

　　【解析】　引导非限制性定语从句，表示人，在从句中作主语，故用who。

　　【答案】　A

　　12．A.sayings

　　B．words

　　C．customs

　　D．telling

　　【解析】　这里要表达的意思是他喜欢教美国人一些中国的习语(Chinese sayings)。saying意思是“格言，习语，谚语”。

　　【答案】　A

　　13．A.popular

　　B．important

　　C．useful

　　D．useless

　　【解析】　前文已有说明：This sentence has been widely used in E­mails，newspapers or any other possible places(这句话是相当流行的)。popular意思是“流行的”。

　　【答案】　A

　　14．A.treat

　　B．compare

　　C．lead

　　D．take

　　【解析】　本段开始提到有些学者把美国比作一个大熔炉，各种文化相互混合(mixed)渗透，由此可推断他们之间都在发生着变化。compare...to...把……比作……。其他各词均不符合句意。

　　【答案】　B

　　15．A.mentioned

　　B．used

　　C．considered

　　D．influenced

　　【解析】　根据最后一段第一句可知在美国这个大熔炉中，语言首先受到“影响(influenced)”。

　　【答案】　D

　　Ⅱ.语法填空

　　One afternoon，a little boy went into a drug store，reached for a soda carton (硬纸箱)and pulled it over to the telephone.He stood 1.________the carton so that he could reach the phone 2.________started to dial the phone numbers.

　　The store owner observed and listened to the conversation：

　　Boy：“Lady，can you give me the job of 3.________(cut)your lawn？”

　　Woman (at the other end of the phone line)：“I have already hired someone.”

　　Boy：“But I will do 4.________job for half the price.”

　　Woman：“That's great，but I'm very satisfied with my present employee.”

　　【语篇解读】　店主听到小男孩打电话问对方是否愿意雇人割草坪，便以为男孩是要找工作。当店主表示想雇用男孩时，男孩却回答说他打电话是想试探自己的雇主对自己工作的满意度。

　　1．on　小男孩为了能够到电话，需要站在硬纸箱上，故本空应填介词on。

　　2．and　该处and使得stood与started成为并列结构，表连续动作。

　　3．cutting　该空前面的of是介词，故本空要填cut的动名词形式，作介词of的宾语。

　　4．the　前面已经提到了这份工作，因为这里是特指这份大家都知道的割草坪的工作。

　　5 if　if在这里引导条件状语从句。

　　6．receiver　句意：小男孩脸上带着微笑，重新将电话听筒(receiver)放置好。

　　7．him　指代前面的the boy。

　　8．to offer　would like/love to do sth.＝feel like doing sth.想干某事。

　　9．was working　表示“过去一段时间一直在干某事”要用过去进行时。

　　10．to　 explain(sth.)to sb.向某人解释某事情。

Just on the basis of a short e­mail correspondence(通信) and seeing a photo of the sofa，would you travel halfway across the world to do the same? It might sound crazy，but this is exactly what millions of people are doing—it's known as couch(沙发) surfing.

　　Couch surfing is travelling on a budget，using a broad network of contacts in order to get overnight accommodation for free，or at as little cost as possible.Participants join dedicated(专业的) websites，providing as much information about themselves as possible in order to make others feel comfortable hosting them，or using them as a host.

　　Various safety features are available in such online networks，like verification (确认) of names and addresses，personal references and vouching (担保) for a particular member as a reliable host or guest.

　　As well as the financial advantages of couch surfing，participants also claim that the practice gives them a more unique，authentic travel experience，allowing them to get to know culture and cuisine through the locals rather than through tour agents.“Couch surfing is not just about finding free accommodation.We open our minds and lives and welcome the knowledge that becomes available through cultural exchange，” said Casey Fenton，founder of CouchSurfing.com, “CouchSurfing wants to change not only the way we travel，but how we relate to the world.”

　　The writings of Shakespeare are today little read by young people in Britain.His young readership is limited to those who choose to study literature at university.

　　Shakespeare's work，together with most other classics，is seen as remote，and written in a 400­year­old version of English that is about as inviting as toothache.

　　Still，in British schools，it is compulsory to study the bard(诗人)，and when something is made compulsory，usually the result is boredom，resentment(憎恨) or both.

　　This was my experience of the classics at school.But when I reached my late teenage years，I had a change of heart.Like every other young person since the dawn of time，the world confused me.I wanted answers，so I turned to books to find them.

　　I went on to take a PhD in literature and have taught it in Britain and China.I have never regretted it.There is something in literature that people want，even if they don't read books.You see this in the popularity of TV and movie adaptations of great works，the recent film version of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice being a_case_in_point.These popular adaptations

　　may help increase people's interest in the classics.

　　Reading a simplified Romeo and Juliet may perhaps lead to a reading of Shakespeare's actual play.If that is the case，then I welcome the trend.But do not make the mistake of thinking that it is the same thing.Shakespeare is a poet.His greatness is in his language.Reading someone else's rewriting of his work is like peeling a banana，throwing away the fruit，and eating the skin take on the original.It really is worth the effort.

　　6．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A．The language used in classics is no longer in use today.

　　B．British students usually find compulsory reading dull.

　　C．Only those studying literature read Shakespeare's works.

　　D．For British people，Shakespeare's works are no longer classics.

　　【解析】　推理判断题。从文章第三段内容可以推断B项正确。

　　【答案】　B

　　7．According to the passage，the writer________.

　　A．has liked literary classics since an early age

　　B．was forced to read the classics for a PhD

　　C．turned to literature to seek answers in his teens

　　D．thinks only people who read books like literature

　　【解析】　推理判断题。从文章的第四段内容可知C项正确。

　　【答案】　C

　　8．The popularity of TV and movie adaptations of great works may help people________.

　　A．learn more about tradition

　　B．get a PhD in literature

　　C．seek their answers about the world

　　D．become more interested in the classics

　　【解析】　细节理解题。从文章第五段的最后一句话，可知D项为最佳答案。

　　【答案】　D

　　9．The underlined phrase “a case in point” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to “________”．

　　A．a great hit　B．a good example

　　C．a movie adaptation

　　D．a popular phenomenon

　　【解析】　词义猜测题。画线前面的一句话“You see this in the popularity of TV and movie adaptations of great works...”是作者的观点，后面是进行事例论证。故最佳答案为B。

　　【答案】　B

　　10．What does the writer intend to tell us in the last paragraph?

　　A．The fruit of a banana is more useful than its skin.

　　B．The rewriting trend does more harm than good.

　　C．Readers should try to read the original versions.

　　D．Readers need to learn the language in the classics.

　　【解析】　写作意图题。文章最后一段第三句点明了作者的观点：改编的作品和原著是不一样的。作者建议我们要读作者的原作。

　　【答案】　C

　　11．用30词左右概括文章大意

　　___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

　　【答案】　The writer mainly tells about his experience of classics at school and university and his opinion that readers should try to read the original versions instead of the simplified ones.
