Module3 unit3 The Million Pound Bank-Note
高考解读
【高考导航】1. novel一词作名词用当“小说”讲时是大家非常熟悉的，但对其作为形容词“新奇的；异常的”却了解不多，近几年高考题对这种“熟词新义”现象考查比较多，希望同学们在复习单词时特别注意
2. permit是高考常用重点词汇，高考试题对于permit的用法搭配，其近义词allow，反义词forbid，同根词permission以及permit作名词的用法都有可能考套到。如在2007年江苏卷完形填空第50题，就对permit作名词的用法进行了考查。以上几点均可能在2010年高考的单项填空及完形填空中出现
3. jealous adj．“妒忌的，猜疑的”是高考中的常用词汇，多以形容词辨析的形式在单项填空及完形填空中出现，常与近义词enviable，admirable等进行辨析，2010年高考可能会涉及jealous与相近形容词之间的辨析
4. even if为高考高频考点，相当于even though，通常考查它与其他引导状语从句的连词之间的辨析。2009年北京卷，2009年浙江卷，2008年江苏卷以及2007年广东卷中均在单项填空题中对此进行了考查，同时2008年上海春招和2006年山东、湖北卷中以完形填空的形式考查了even if与其他连词的辨析。2010年高考中将继续把even if作为重点进行词义及用法的辨析考查
5. 时态和语态是高考必考的语法项目，对于将来时的考查在高考试题中时有出现，be about to do表“将来”，不能与具体的时问状语连用，以及其与表将来的be going to do，be to do的区别都可能成为2010年高考的考点
6. 对于从句的考查是高考热点，特别是由what引导的宾语从句和表语从句更是考查重点，同学们要注意
that，who，where和what等词在从句中的作用的区别
【真题品析】（2009湖北卷）24. Some parents are just too protective. They want to ______ their kids from every kind of danger, real or imagined.
A. spot
B. dismiss
C. shelter
D. distinguish
【答案】C. 考查动词的辨析
【点拨】根据上句Some parents are just too protective. 可知下文要说父母们想庇荫孩子们不受到任何伤害。shelter做动词可表示“保护；庇护”。spot“弄脏，认出，发现，定位”，dismiss“开除，使解散”，distinguish“区别”
（2009浙江卷）18. , the pay isn’t attractive enough, though the job itself is quite interesting.
A. Generally speaking
B. On the contrary
C. In particular
D. To be honest
【答案】D。考查插入语的用法
【点拨】说实话，这件工作的薪水不是很诱人，虽然工作本身很有趣。To be honest/sure/frank可以用作插入语
（2009陕西卷）13. My parents don’t mind what job I do
I am happy.
A. even though B. as soon as
C. as long as
D. as though
【答案】C考查状语从句
【点拨】根据题干意思可知此处是条件状语从句，引导词意思是：只要，选C。even though引导让步状语从句，意思是：即使；as soon as引导时间状语从句，意思是：一……就……；as though引导方式状语从句，意思是：仿佛，好象
（2009北京卷）31. At first he hated the new job but decided to give himself a few months to see ___ it got any better.
A. when
B. how
C. why
D. if
【答案】D
考查宾语从句的引导词的选择
【点拨】最初他不喜欢这件新工作，但是他决定给自己几个月的时间来看一下这件工作是否会变得更好。所以用if引导宾语从句
（2009山东卷）28. The little girl who got lost decided to remain _________she was and wait tor her mother.
A. where
B. what
C. how
D. who
【答案】A 本题考查连词
【点拨】remain是系动词，后加表语从句，由句意可知，从句缺地点状语，所以选A。
（2009四川卷）1. —May I open the window to let in some fresh air?
—___________
A. Come on
B. Take care
C. Go ahead!
D. Hold on!
【答案】C考查具体语境
【点拨】根据语境可以知道：去开吧，去做吧。所以答案为：C。容易误选A。come on 的意思是“算了吧！加油！”

第二节 完形填空 (共20小题, 满分30分)
阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从第36至第55小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项
EVERY morning in the school dormitory, I am woken up by the morning bell along with the crow (啼叫) of the two peacocks, which are the most special inhabitants in our campus.
When I first heard about them, I thought it was so
36
to have two useless peacocks in a high school
37
I even planned a letter to the president
38
him to send them to the zoo. Yet after I paid them my first
39
, which was a week later, I
40
changed my mind.
That was my first Friday in school,
41
was filled by books and tests. My friend enthusiastically
42
me to the back garden of our school to visit the peacocks. I unwillingly followed her through the
43
and unruly (混乱的) flood of busy students, and came into the quiet little garden.
The
44
silence and special fragrance of water and grass quickly entered (沁入) my
45
heart, and brought me some fresh air. I walked to the cage of the peacocks and saw the two
creatures. "They are so
46
."
Those simple words popped into my mind
47
I had seen peacocks many times in the zoo. I thought about the
48
of several famous poets and artists while
49
them peanuts and ice cream, and I felt a kind of
50
of nature and study in my mind.
Men are beings instead of
51
. Working like machines will change our pristine (质朴的) minds
and healthy hearts. There was
52
reporting
that a student at Fudan
University
53
30 lost cats. I believe he did not graduate from our school, where everyone can hear the crow from the heavenly animals every morning.
I think nowadays, high school students
need
to
go
out
to
54
our
bodies
and
minds,
55
crouching down behind the piles of text books.
Look at the gold forsythia (连翘), that's the spring calling.

第三部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
A
I am an elementary school teacher. I think homework should be done by the child and it should take only about a half an hour. Parents should write a note if they had to help a lot, this tells the teacher that the day’s lesson needs more review. Some things are more easily learned if they are practiced at home. Students should develop independence and organization. I send home fairly simple homework because I do not wish to see how creative mom, dad, the neighbors and grandma are with large projects... what is this teaching the child? Independence? Creativity?
Many readers are noticing the alarming trend to test, test, test. These new tests are not like the ones we remember. They are really difficult and abstract. Besides the usual math problems, third and fourth grade tests now ask about probability, tessellations and flips, slides, turns. Some teachers have had to increase the pace of their instruction to cover all the topics that will appear on the tests, thus, they send home homework that kids may not fully understand or send more homework home so they can, they hope, cover more content faster. It’s not a good idea, but the trend of testing has driven teachers to push, push, push. Parents should be concerned about the testing that is such an important issue. I would advice parents to talk to
