课时提能练(三十四)

Ⅰ.阅读理解

(2019·福州联考)“Clothes-swapping”is an activity which has become increasingly popular among American women.At a clothes swap event the women can give away unwanted clothing and get something different in return.

Recently about 300 women went to a clothes swap at a high school in Springfield，Virginia.It was the largest crowd ever for the area's popular clothing-swapping group.

Daphne Steinberg was having a good day.“For anyone who knows Ann Taylor LOFT，Ann Taylor is a really good women's designer and I will totally wear this to work.So I love that，and I love that I can equip myself for work，have a good time in doing it，and not totally bankrupt(使破产) myself.”

Sandy Van Dusen likes the idea that clothes are finding new homes instead of being thrown away.“Because it helps to keep the Earth green.There's no point in my opinion in continuing to buy new clothes when we can reuse what are already here.Give them a new home—let somebody else love what you used to love and no longer love.”

Kim Pratt organized the clothes swap event in Springfield.She also organized a money-raising activity for the high school's debate team.It is one of several ways that her group gives to charitable causes.Another is by donating all of the“unswapped”clothing to shelters for victims of domestic violence.

“I started doing this four years ago，and we've been doing it for four years，getting bigger and bigger each time we have a swap.”

She used the social media website meetup.com to help publicize the events.The website has helped her group grow from 30 members to 1,300.Ms.Pratt says most of the members respect the clothing swap rules.But she says competition for desirable fashion can be strong.

“We have to tell people sometimes not to hover(徘徊) over the new people coming in with their clothing.As they put it out，some people tend to grab the stuff right out of their hands and it becomes like a free-for-all.We try to avoid that as much as possible.”

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者三年前来到武汉，并成为一名老师。中国学生以及中国的大学生活令作者印象深刻。在中国的教学经历也使作者自身有所提升和改变。

1．was attracted [考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知，所填词作谓语。主语I与动词attract为被动关系，所以空处应用被动语态；结合时间状语从句“when I was a university student”可知，此处叙述的是过去的情况，故所填谓语动词用一般过去时；且主句主语为I，故此处填was attracted。]

2．Thinking [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，I与动词think为逻辑上的主谓关系，且非谓语动词所表示的动作几乎与谓语动词realize所表示的动作同时发生，故此处应用动词-ing形式；且所填词位于句首，故此处填Thinking。]

3．that [考查强调句型。谓语动词realize之后所接的是省略that的宾语从句，而该从句属于强调句型，所强调的部分是“the students I met...in general”，包含人和事物，

所以空处应填that。]

4．connected [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，动词connect与activity是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用connect的过去分词形式作后置定语。]

5．on [考查固定搭配。由语境可知，此处表示两种情况的对比，再结合关键词the other hand可知，此处应用介词on。on the other hand为固定搭配，意为“另一方面”。]

6．me [考查代词。所填词在动词后，故用人称代词I的宾格形式me。] 7．and [考查连词。此处表示“这既具有挑战性又有意义”。both...and...意为“不仅……而且……”。]

8．better [考查固定用法。结合下文中的“I overcame my fear of speaking in public and became more self-confident”可知，此处指的是“在武汉的这一年使我变得更好”，故用better。]

9．warmth [考查名词。thanks to为介词短语，其后可接名词作宾语，又结合“politeness and”可知，空处应填warmth。]

10．importantly [考查副词。结合语境可知，此处表示“最重要的是”，修饰整个句子，应用副词，故此处应填importantly。]

Ⅲ.概要写作

阅读下列短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

How do you feel about silence and pauses in conversations？Do they make you anxious or uneasy？Or do you enjoy silence in the presence of others sometimes？Whatever your answer is，we can sometimes run into such a situation where the listener remains silent.

There can be silence in conversations.But the meaning of silence varies among cultural groups.Some cultural groups may think that it is extremely uncomfortable；therefore，attempts may be made to fill every gap with conversation.Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person's needs.

Many traditional Asians think that it is a basic part of communicating among people.Therefore，when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops，what may be implied is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing.In these cultures，silence is a call for reflection.

Other cultures may use silence in other ways，particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power.For example，

Russian，French，and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion.Similarly，Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her.

Nurses and other care-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing.Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient's silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily.A nurse who understands the healing(有治疗功效的) value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures as well.

【参考范文】

Silence can occur in conversations.(要点1)However，it is interpreted differently by different cultures，some thinking it unnatural while others considering it indispensible.(要点2)For example，traditional Asians value it as a call for reflection and such nationalities as Russians and Mexicans avoid conflicts by keeping silent.(要点3)Therefore，care-givers like nurses should understand the healing effects of silence to offer better care.(要点4)
