課時分層作業(yè)(十五) [高考題型練習(xí)提能力].閱讀理解ALondonA morning's train ride awayacross the Channel,English kids talk about Liverpool's soccer team in a Paris pub.Some Parisians have even started to go to work in London.In the 19th century,Charles Dickens compared the two great rival citiesLondon and Paris,in A Tale of Two Cities.These days,it might be A Tale of One City.Parisians are these days likely to smile in sympathy at a visitor's broken French and respond in polite English.As jobs grew lacking at home over recent years,perhaps 250,000 Frenchmen moved across the Channel.With an undersea tunnel,they could travel between cities in three hours.The European Union freed them from immigration and customs.Paris,rich in beauty,is more attractive,but London feels more full of lifeand more fun until the pubs shut down.For me,the difference is that London is real,alive,said Trevor Wheeler,a banker.Chantal Jaouena professional designer,agrees,I am French,but I'll stay in London,she said.There is,of course,the other view,Julie Lenoux is a student who moved to London two years ago.I think people laugh more in Parisshe said.In fact,London and Pariswith their obvious new similarities,are beyond the old descriptions.As the European Union gradually loosened controls,Londoners flocked into Paris to shopeat and buy property.Both cities have changed beyond recognition,said Larry Collins,a writer and sometimes a Londoner.Like most people who know both wellhe finds the two now fit together comfortably.I first fell in love with Paris in the 1950s,and it is still a wonderful place,Collins said.But if I had to choose,it would be London.Things are so much more orderedand life is better,but certainly not cheaper. In fancy parts of London,rents can be twice those on Avenue Foch in Paris.Deciding between London and Paris requires a lifestyle choice.Like Daphne Benoit,a French journalism student with perfect English,many young people are happy to be close enough so they don't have to choose.I love Parismy little neighborhood,the way I can walk around a center,but life is so structuredshe said.In London,you can be who you want.No one cares.【語篇解讀】 文章對倫敦和巴黎進(jìn)行了各方面的比較讓人們對這兩個城市有了更深入的了解。1The best title for this passage is        ALondoners and ParisiansBA Modern Tale of Two CitiesCThe Similarity of Two CitiesDFancy London and Fashionable Paris2Living in Paris,you may find        Alife is betterBthings are cheaperCa job easilyDmore attractive people3We can infer from the text that        AParis and London have become perfect partnersBLondon feels more full of lifeClife in Paris is structuredDParis and London have become fierce competitorsBThere are probably no people on Earth who like to gossip as much as the British.If prying into(打探)others' lives were an Olympic sport,then Team GB would surely take the gold medal.And when the British can't watch the lives of real people,they have another source of entertainment to fall back onthe soap opera.British soap operas are very different to US TV dramas.For one,they are normally longer running.The two most popular,Coronation Street and East-enders,have been running for 48 and 24 years respectively.Both are broadcast several times a week,so remarkably there have been more than 7000 episodes of Coronation Street.The most obvious difference is that,unlike US dramasthe British soap operas focus on the real world.There is little glamour(魅力),the stars are rarely rich,and they normally have boring jobs.Perhaps the appeal is that the lives of the characters often mirror the lives of the audiencebut with some drama added.This means the viewer can relate to the characters and feel the pain and happiness they go through on the show.Because these soap operas last for decades,the cast is ever changing.The shows rarely focus on one or two main characters.Like the real world,people come and go all the time.Howeverthere are exceptions.Coronation Street's William Roach,76,has played the role of Ken Barlow since the very first episode of the show in 1960and he is still a regular.The choice of which soap opera you follow is often culturalpeople from the north of Britain tend to watch Coronation Street as it is set in Manchester.People from the south generally prefer East-enders,which is set in the east of London.The show is generally considered grittier and is aimed at a younger audience.【語篇解讀】 本文主要講述了英國人喜歡打探消息和閑聊的特點,從而闡述英劇的歷史和特點,英國人對于英劇極其鐘愛,不同地區(qū)的英國人對英劇種類的喜愛也有所差異。4What is the main difference between American dramas and British soap operas?AAmerican dramas are longer.BBritish soap operas are longer.CAmerican dramas deal with dangerous things.DBritish soap operas deal with real people.5Why do British people like to watch such operas?AThey can find their own life from the operas.BThey can enjoy the operas in their free time.CThey can watch the operas for many years.DThey care about the fate of the characters in the operas.6The underlined word “episodes” in the second paragraph probably means“         Aplays        BpagesCissues   Dparts.閱讀七選五Body language mistakes you should avoid at workCommunication is not only about words but also gestures.Therefore,you should be careful about how you use your body when expressing yourself.Avoiding eye contact (接觸)When speaking with a workmate,avoiding eye contact makes you look unprofessional (不專業(yè)的)  1   Therefore,you should always keep eye contact especially when you are making a point.Crossing your armsCrossing your arms shows that you are not open to others and that you want to put a distance between yourself and them.  2   In order to give others a warm feelingjust keep your arms open.Checking the timeChecking the time every few minutes makes people feel you are in a hurry or would rather be somewhere else.  3   Therefore,when you are speaking to your workmatestry not to look at the clock very often.Bad body postureHaving a bad posture such as dropped shoulders or a lower neck can mean that you are not interested in what is going on around you.  4   Also,keep your head high.Weak handshakeA weak handshake means that you don't care much about the person you are shaking hands with.Try to greet the people with a firm (有力的) handshake.Howeverdon't forget that a handshake that is too firm can be impolite.  5  ATherefore,try to find the right balance.BNod your head to show that you are listening.CIt looks like you are not interested in being there.DThis shows that you have confidence in yourself.EThis is generally considered as a position of defence.FIt is important to stand or sit up straight when speaking to somebody.GIt also shows that you are not confident or show no interest in the topic.【語篇解讀】 本文是說明文。文章主要介紹了在工作中應(yīng)該避免的幾種身體語言。.語法填空Your body language will give out a lot more information.1.           (base) on your body language it can be seen whether you are
