選修8　Unit 5　Meeting your ancestors 一、閱讀理解 The story of Sir Nicholas Winton is the one that you would imagine could only happen on the silver screen. Sir Nicholas Winton was a British man who went to heroic efforts, potentially putting himself at risk, during World War II. Sir Winton was responsible for ensuring the safety of six hundred and sixty-nine Jewish children by aiding their escape from countries occupied by Nazis. Finally, the Jewish children were brought to England where he worked to make sure families in his native country would help the kids by taking them into their homes. Recently, this unbelievable story has again been making the rounds on the Internet, particularly after a rerun of the BBC show called “That’s Life”, which featured Sir Winton. People around the world were moved at the details of the story, with saying it to be the best story they’ve ever seen. Sir Winton kept his entire plan pletely secret, even his wife had no idea about his planning until fifty years later. After the war, years passed and many people remained in the dark about Sir Winton’s extraordinary achievement. Some fifty years later, his wife Greta was searching in their house and discovered a Winton’s notebook which documented the names of all the children. She worked with BBC and they produced a TV episode (插曲) of their program “That’s Life” that served as an honor for Sir Winton’s work. In 2003, Sir Winton was knighted by the Queen of England for his work. He also was even nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. He also had a small planet named after him by Czech astronomers. Sir Winton died peacefully in his sleep at the old age of one hundred and six, in 2015. Leaders around the world paid tribute (悼念). Israel’s ambassador to the United Kingdom, Daniel Taub, said, “He was a hero of our time, having saved 669 Jewish children from Nazis.

Tantrums are mon during the second year of life, a time when language skills are starting to develop. Because young children at this age cant yet say what they want, feel, or need, a frustrating experience may cause a tantrum. __3__. __4__ — more than they may be able to handle. This can lead to power struggles as a child thinks “I can do it myself” or “I want it, give it to me”. When kids discover that they cant do it and cant have everything they want, they may have a tantrum. So try to prevent tantrums from happening in the first place, whenever possible. Give plenty of positive attention. Get in the habit of catching your child being good. Reward your little one with praise and attention for positive behaviors.

But it wasn’t real snow that he saw. Actually, there was no real snow where he lived. He saw the snow in a picture book, which had lots of pictures of children playing in big white fields. He dreamed about snow all the time, trying to imagine how it really was. He thought of big white fields. He thought of the big, heavy clothes the children playing in the snow wore. He thought about feeling cold. He dreamed of being able to fly across the white fields of snow. Then, when Afel was twelve years old, the next thing happened. One day when he was watching TV at his uncle’s house. His uncle had a big new TV, with all the satellite channels. Afel was watching one of the satellite channels, and a program full of snow came on. And not only snow. There were people flying across the snow. They looked like fantastic birds. They had hats which covered all their heads and big goggles(護目鏡) over their eyes. They wore brightly-colored clothes. And on their feet, they had things that looked like strange shoes. ＂What are those?＂ he asked his uncle excitedly. ＂They are skis,＂ replied his uncle. ＂And those people are called skiers.＂ Afel was in love. Here was the snow, and here were people who were flying across the snow. At that moment, he decided, he wanted to be a skier. He asked his uncle what the program was. ＂The Winter Olympics,＂ said his uncle. ＂It’s like the normal Olympics, but for sports where you need snow — skiing, ice skating, bobsleigh, those sorts of things. They have it every four years.＂ ＂Perfect,＂ he thought. ＂Enough time for me to bee a brilliant skier. Then I’ll go to the next Winter Olympics, and win the gold medal for skiing.＂ ＂But there’s no snow here!＂ people told him. ＂Where are you going to ski?＂ 注意： 1.所續(xù)寫短文的詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右； 2.應(yīng)使用5個以上短文中標有下劃線的關(guān)鍵詞語； 3.續(xù)寫部分分為兩段，每段的開頭語已為你寫好； 4.續(xù)寫完成后，請用下劃線標出你所使用的關(guān)鍵詞語。 Paragraph 1: Afel didn’t care. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: So every night, out in the middle of the desert, Afel practiced skiing down sand hills. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【參考范文】 One possible version: Paragraph 1：（第一段） Afel didn’t care. He made himself a pair of skis from two pieces of wood. He tied them to his feet and practiced skiing holding two sticks in his hands as the professional skiers do. At first he couldn’t move, but he practiced and practiced and practiced until he could move quite quickly across the sand or the earth. He tried to fly down sand hills like the skiers on TV, but he couldn’t. He could only move slowly. But he told himself this was not the reason why he stopped making efforts. Paragraph 2：（第二段） So every night, out in the middle of the desert, Afel practiced skiing down sand hills. He dreamed that the yellow sand of the desert and brown earth were the white fields of snow he saw in the book and on the television. He dreamed that the yellow sand and brown earth were as gold as the medal he would bring home with him, when he was the world champion in the Winter Olympics. 前文概要： Afel生活在一個見不到真正的雪的地方，但自他在一本圖畫書中見到雪之后，就對其充滿好奇并愛上了這種神奇的東西。一天，Afel在他叔叔家的電視上看到了冬季奧運會的滑雪項目，并深深地被吸引了，他下定決心要成為一個出色的滑雪者，參加下一屆冬季奧運會并獲得金牌。但人們提醒他說他們所生活的地方?jīng)]有雪。 思路導(dǎo)航： Paragraph 1的開頭是＂Afel并不在意＂，暗示接下來的內(nèi)容會涉及Afel如何在沒有雪的情況下自己制作滑雪用具，克服一切困難努力成為一個滑雪者，而Afel最初的嘗試可能會遇到一些挫折。寫作時可能會用到的畫線詞有skis， skiers， TV等。 Paragraph 2的開頭是＂因此，每天晚上在外面的沙漠中間，Afel都會練習(xí)著從沙丘上滑下來＂，這表明下文講的可能是Afel以一種特別的方式練習(xí)滑雪，把黃黃的沙漠想象成白白的雪場，并以奧運金牌來激勵自己等。寫作時可能會用到的畫線詞有the white fields of snow， Winter Olympics， medal等。
