1、 Unit 3 A taste of English humour Ⅰ.閱讀理解 (2017成都外國語學(xué)校高三模擬) Something that has always interested me about Abraham Lincoln is, not surprisingly, his sense of humor. As far as I can tell, hes the first American President to have one. Thats because the term “sense of humor” really wasnt in common u

2、sage until the eighteensixties and seventies. In the eighteenforties and fifties, it was called “the sense of the ridiculous”， and didnt have the positive connotations(隱含意義)that “sense of humor” has today. Back then, what was ridiculous was what invited ridicule(譏笑). Funniness and cruelty went hand

3、in hand. Of course, they still do a lot of arminarm walking in our day as well. Lincolns humor was very different, because, for one thing, it was actually “humor”as what the word meant in his time. We dont make the distinction between “wit(風(fēng)趣)” and “humor” anymore; but in the nineteenth century peo

4、ple did. Wit was unpleasant and offensive while humor was pleasant and sympathetic. Its the difference we note now when we distinguish between “l(fā)aughing with” and “l(fā)aughing at”. Lincoln was much more about “l(fā)aughing with” than “l(fā)aughing at”. And when “l(fā)aughing at”， it was often himself he was teasin

5、g. In the famous LincolnDouglas debates, when Douglas accused Lincoln of being twofaced, Lincoln replied, referencing his plain looking, “Honestly, if I were twofaced, would I be showing you this_one？” And, in a way, Lincolns face itself tells us much about his sense of humor. You can comb throug

6、h thousands of photographs of politicians, soldiers, and the like from Lincolns time and not find a single smile. True, the long exposures(曝光)required for photographs of that time made smiling difficult. Yet Lincoln alone, as far as I can tell, overcame that difficulty. Interestingly, while havin

7、g a sense of humor, or at least the appearance of one provided by comedy writers has become a necessary characteristic for an American President in our time, in the nineteenth century, too much humor was considered problem. And that was the case for Lincoln. A journalist covering the LincolnDouglas

8、debates commented that “I could not take a real personal liking to the man, owing to an inborn weakness... that he was extremely fond of jokes, anecdotes and stories.” 1．We can infer from Paragraph 2 that ________. A．the American President could influence the use of English B．the term “sense of

9、humor” wasnt invented until the 1860s C．what is funny to someone might be offensive to someone else D．the concept of humor remains the same despite the passing of time 2．The underlined words “this one” in Paragraph 4 refer to “________”． A．Lincolns unattractive face B．Lincolns sense of humo

10、r C．the debate they were having D．cruelty that went with funniness 3．We rarely see people from Lincolns time wear smile in their photos because ________. A．being humorous was considered inappropriate B．they found it quite funny to smile before camera C．not smiling for photographs was the

11、fashion D．photography technology then was not advanced 4．What might the writer think of the journalist covering the LincolnDouglas debates? A．His comment accurately reflected his time. B．He created a false picture of Lincoln. C．He was prejudiced and selfcentered. D．He was brave to point o

12、ut Lincolns weakness. 答案與解析 本文主要介紹了林肯的幽默。 1．C　段落大意題。根據(jù)第二段可推知，幽默對(duì)一些人來說是幽默，而對(duì)另外一些人來說可能就是冒犯。 2．A　詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第四段畫線部分所在句和后面的“And，in a way，Lincolns face itself tells us much about his sense of humor.” 可知，畫線詞指的是林肯那張不吸引人的臉。故選A項(xiàng)。 3．D　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六段中的“True, the long exposures (曝光) required for photographs of

13、that time made smiling difficult.” 可知，是因?yàn)榕恼占夹g(shù)不先進(jìn)。故選D項(xiàng)。 4．A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段首句中的“in the nineteenth century, too much humor was considered a problem”可知，下面的例子是為了證明作者的這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)，即那個(gè)記者的評(píng)論具有時(shí)代性。 Ⅱ.七選五 (2017安徽省馬鞍山市第二中學(xué)模擬) TOP 4 WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR BRAIN FITNESS Brain fitness has basic principles: variety and

25、f years，the mother __9__ (drive) the young panda away.

26、panda”是單數(shù)形式。故填is loved。 2．recently　考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，空格處在句中作時(shí)間狀語，故用recent的副詞形式。故填recently。 3．caring/careful　考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。根據(jù)空格后的名詞“mother”可知，此處應(yīng)用形容詞作定語；既可意為“關(guān)心的，有同情心的”，用caring；也可意為“細(xì)心的”，用careful。故填caring/careful。 4．to eat　考查非謂語動(dòng)詞?？崭裉幮揎棽欢ù~something，所以用不定式作后置定語，意為“吃的東西”。故填to eat。 5．enemies　考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)。此處指熊貓的天敵

27、，因?yàn)樗奶鞌巢恢挂环N，所以用enemy的復(fù)數(shù)形式。故填enemies。 6．When/If　考查連詞。根據(jù)語境可知，此處指當(dāng)熊貓寶寶哭叫時(shí)，熊貓媽媽就會(huì)安撫它，用連詞when；也可看作條件狀語從句，意為“如果小熊貓哭叫”，此時(shí)用連詞if。故填When/If。注意首字母大寫。 7．for　考查介詞。“介詞for＋時(shí)間段”表示持續(xù)一段時(shí)間。故填for。 8．its　考查代詞。修飾名詞“mother”應(yīng)用形容詞性物主代詞。故填its。 9．drove　考查動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)。根據(jù)上下文可知，文中敘述熊貓媽媽對(duì)熊貓寶寶的關(guān)愛時(shí)都是用一般過去時(shí)，故此處也用一般過去時(shí)。故填drove。 10．a(chǎn)nd　

28、考查連詞。根據(jù)語境可知，此處指是熊貓媽媽該生育新的熊貓寶寶的時(shí)候了，同時(shí)也是熊貓寶寶該獨(dú)立的時(shí)候了。此處是并列分句，故用連詞and表示順承和并列關(guān)系。故填and。 Ⅳ.短文改錯(cuò) (2017海南省瓊海市嘉積中學(xué)月考) As we know，Charlie Chaplin brightened the lives of Americans and British during the period of silent films.Up to now nobody had been able to do this well than Charlie Chaplin.
