1.1teaching plan1、【其它】passage one questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage。 losing your ability to think and remember is pretty scary。 we know the risk of dementia （痴呆） increases with age。 but if you have memory slips， you probably needn’t worry。 there are pretty clear differences between signs of dementia and age-related memory loss。 after age 50， it’s quite common to have trouble remembering the names of people， places and thing quickly， says dr。 kirk daffner of brigham and woman’s hospital in boston。 the brain ages just like the rest of the body。 certain parts shrink， especially areas in the brain that are important to learning， memory and planning。 changes in brain cells can affect communication between different regions of the brain。 and blood flow can be reduced as blood vessels narrow。 forgetting the name of an actor in a favorite movie， for example， is nothing to worry about。 but if you forget the plot of the movie or don’t remember even seeing it， that’s far more concerning， daffner says。 when you forget entire experiences， he says， that’s “a red flag that something more serious may be involved。” forgetting how to operate a familiar object like a microwave oven， or forgetting how to drive to the house of a friend you’ve visited many times before can also be signs of something going wrong。 but even then， daffner says， people shouldn’t panic。 there are many things that can cause confusion and memory loss， including health problems like temporary stoppage of defense against memory loss is to try to prevent it by building up your brain’s cognitive （认知的） reserve， daffner says。 “read books， go to movies， take on new hobbies or activities that force one to think in novel ways，” he says。 in other words， keep your brain busy and working。 and also get physically active， because exercise is a known brain booster。 46。 why does the author say that one needn’t be concerned about memory slips？ a） not all of them are symptoms of dementia。 b） they occur only among certain groups of people。 c） not all of them are related to one’s age。 d） they are quite common among fifty-year-olds。 47。 what happens as we become aged according to the passage？ a） our interaction skills deteriorate。 b） some parts of our brain stop functioning。 c） communication within our brain weakens。 d） our whole brain starts shrinking。 48。 which memory-related symptom should people take seriously？ a） totally forgetting how to do one’s daily routines。 b） inability to recall details of one’s life experiences。 c） failure to remember the names of movies or actors。 d） occasionally confusing the addresses of one’s friends。 49。 what should people do when signs of serious memory loss show up？ a） check the brain’s cognitive reserve。 c） turn to a professional for assistance。 b） stop medications affecting memory。 d） exercise to improve their well-being。 50。 what is dr daffner’s advice for combating memory loss？ a） having regular physical and mental checkups。 b） taking medicine that helps boost one’s brain。 c） engaging in known memory repair activities。 d） staying active both physically and mentally。 20分一题

4.1teaching plan1、【其它】 here's a familiar version of the boy-meets-girl situation. a young man has at last plucked up courage to invite a dazzling young lady out to dinner. she has accepted his invitation and he is overjoyed. he is determined to take her to the best restaurant in town, even if it means that he will have to live on memories and hopes during the month to come. when they get to the restaurant, he discovers that this ethereal creature is on a diet. she mustn’t eat this and she mustn't that. oh, but of course, she doesn't want to spoil his enjoyment. let him by all means eat as much fattening food as he wants: it’s the surest way to an early grave. they spend a truly memorable evening together and never see each other again. what a miserable lot dieters are! you can always recognize them from the sour expression on their faces. they spend most of their time turning their noses up at food. they are forever consulting calorie charts; gazing at themselves in mirrors; and leaping on to weighing-machines in the bathroom. they spend a lifetime fighting a losing battle against spreading hips,protruding tummies and double chins. some wage all-out war on fat. mere dieting is not enough. they exhaust themselves doing exercises, sweating in sauna baths, being pummeledand massaged by weird machines. the really wealthy diet-mongers pay vast sums for ‘health cures’. for two weeks they can enter a nature clinic and be starved to death for a hundred guineas a week. don’t think it’s only the middle-aged who go in for these fads either. many of these bright young things you see are suffering from chronic malnutrition: they are living on nothing but air, water and the goodwill of god. dieters undertake to starve themselves of their own free will; so why are they so miserable? well, for one thing, they’re always hungry. you can't be hungry and happy at the same time. all the horrible concoctions they eat instead of food leave them permanently dissatisfied.wonderfood is a complete food, the advertisement says. ‘just dissolve a teaspoonful in water…’. a complete food it may be, but not quite as complete as a juicy steak. and, of course, they’re always miserable because they feel so guilty. hunger just proves too much for them and in the end they lash out and devour five huge guilt-inducing cream cakes at a sitting. and who can blame them? at least three times a day they are exposed to temptation. what utter torture it is always watching others tucking into piles of mouth-watering food while you munch a water biscuit and sip unsweetened lemon juice! what’s all this self-inflicted torture for? saintly people deprive themselves of food to attain a state of grace. unsaintly people do so to attain a state of misery. it will be a great day when all the dieters in the world abandon their slimming courses; when they hold out their plates and demand second helpings! 1. the best title for this passage is [a] on fat.

5.2teaching courseware of unit 51、【其它】the norwegian government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control. a new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline; production limits have been laid down (though these have already been raised); and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers. but the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems, and few people believe that the government will be able to hold things back for long. as on norwegian politician said last week: “we will soon be changed beyond all recognition.” ever since the war, the government has been carrying out a programme of development in the area north of the arctic circle. during the past few years this programme has had a great deal of success: tromso has been built up into a local capital with a university, a large hospital and a healthy industry. but the oil industry has already started to draw people south, and within a few years the whole northern policy could be in ruins. the effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north, however. with nearly 100 percent employment, everyone can see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oil industry. some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods from abroad. the real argument over oil is its threat to the norwegian way of life. farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population, but they are an important part of it, because norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as essentially norwegian. and it is the farmers and the fishermen who are most critical of the oil industry because of the damage that it might cause to the countryside and to the sea. 1. the norwegian government would prefer the oil industry to [a] provide more jobs for foreign workers. [b] slow down the rate of its development. [c] sell the oil it is producing abroad. [d] develop more quickly than at present. 2. the norwegian government has tried to [a] encourage the oil companies to discover new oil sources. [b] prevent oil companies employing people from northern norway. [c] help the oil companies solve many of their problems. [d] keep the oil industry to something near its present size. 3. according to the passage, the oil industry might lead northern norway to [a] the development of industry. [b] a growth in population. [c] the failure of the development programme. [d] the development of new towns. 4. in the south, one effect to the development of the oil industry might be [a] a large reduction on unemployment. [b] a growth in the tourist industry. [c] a reduction in the number of existing industries. [d] the development of a number of service industries. 5. norwegian farmers and fishermen have an important influence because [a] they form such a large part of norwegian ideal. [b] their lives and values represent the norwegian ideal. [c] their work is so useful to the rest of norwegian society. [d] they regard oil as a threat to the norwegian way of life. 每题20分
7.2teaching courseware of unit 7 1、【其它】the establishment of the third reich influenced events in american history by starting a chain of events which culminated in war between germany and the united states. the compete destruction of democracy, the persecution of jews, the war on religion, the cruelty and barbarism of the nazis, and especially the plans of germany and her allies, italy and japan, for world conquest caused great indignation in this country and brought on fear of another world war. while speaking out against hitler's atrocities, the american people generally favored isolationist policies and neutrality. the neutrality acts of 1935 and 1936 prohibited trade with any belligerents or loans to them. in 1937 the president was empowered to declare an arms embargo in wars between nations at his discretion. american opinion began to change somewhat after president roosevelt's "quarantine the aggressor" speech at chicago (1937) in which he severely criticized hitler's policies. germany’s seizure of austria and the munich pact for the partition of czechoslovakia (1938) also aroused the american people. the conquest of czechoslovakia in march, 1939 was another rude awakening to the menace of the third reich. in august,1939 came the shock of the nazi-soviet pact and in september the attack on poland and the outbreak of european war. the united states attempted to maintain neutrality in spite of sympathy for the democracies arrayed against the third reich. the neutrality act of 1939 repealed the arms embargo and permitted"cash and carry"exports of arms to belligerent nations. a strong national defense program was begun. a draft act was passed (1940) to strengthen the military services. a lend act (1941) authorized the president to sell, exchange, or lend materials to any country deemed necessary by him for the defense of the united states. help was given to britain by exchanging certain overage destroyers for the right to establish american bases in british territory in the western hemisphere. in august, 1940 president roosevelt and prime minister churchill met and issued the atlantic charter which proclaimed the kind of a world which should be established after the war. in december, 1941, japan launched the unprovoked attack on the united states at pearl harbor. immediately thereafter, germany declared war on the united states. 1. one item occurring before 1937 that the author does not mention in his list of actions that alienated the american public was [a] the burning of the reichstag. [b] german plans for conquest. [c] nazi barbarism. [d] the persecution of religious groups. 2. the lend-lease act was designed to [a] help the british. [b] strengthen the national defense of the united states. [c] promote the atlantic charter. [d] avenge pearl harbor. 3. american policy during the years 1935-1936 may be described as being [a] watchful. [b] isolationist. [c] peaceful.
