There are stock markets in large cities in many countries. Stock markets in Paris, London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock market, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares of a factory or a company. And each share means certain ownership of a factory or a company.

Different people go to stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks and try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as part of their plan to save money.

No wonder going to the stock market is often compared to gambling. All are eager to make money by “gambling” in the stock market. Factories and companies that need money are pleased that so many people are willing to gamble”. Indeed, the stock market is an attractive part of the business world.

After nearly a decade of planning, the Egyptian Government has announced an ambitious plan to build the world’s biggest museum devoted entirely to exhibiting the ancient relics（文物）.

Called the New Egyptian Museum, it will eventually house the largest collection of Pharaonic（法老的）monuments, including the solid gold death mask of Tutankhamun.

King Nebkheperura Tutankhamun remains the most famous of all the Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt. He lived over 3,300 years ago during the period known as the New Kingdom.

The museum also will house more than120,000antiquities（ancient arts）from the 4th millennium（1,000 years）BC to the fall of the Roman Empire.

For the first time, the entire 3,500 items from Tutankhamun’s tomb will be displayed. Permanent exhibitions will include the royal mummies of Ramses II and III and other pharaohs and a large quantity of collection of Pharaonic jewellery.

Antiquities will be organized by theme rather than chronologically（编年地）. The four main themes will be: the land of Egypt; royalty and the state; arts of life and death; and scribes（文牍）and wisdom.

With building costs estimated near US$311 million, funding for the new museum will come from corporate sponsorship and charitable（慈善的）donations. The Egyptian Government is expected to pay one third of the final bill.

Geologists（地质学家）have been studying volcanoes for a long time. Though they have learned a great deal, they still have not discovered the causes of volcanic action. They know that the inside of the earth is very hot, but they are not sure exactly what causes the great heat. Some geologists have thought that the heat is caused by the great pressure of the earth’s outer layers. Or the heat may be left from the time when the earth was formed. During the last sixty years scientists have learned about radium, uranium, thorium, and other radioactive elements. These give out heat all the time as they change into other elements. Many scientists now believe that much of the heat inside the earth is produced by radioactive elements.

Whatever the cause of the heat may be, we do know that the earth gets hotter the farther down we dig. In deep mines and oil wells the temperature rises about 1℉for each 50 feet. At this rate the temperature 40 miles below the earth’s surface would be over 4000℉. this is much hotter than necessary to melt rook. However, the pressure of the rock above keeps most materials from melting at their usual melting points. Geologists believe that the rock deep in the earth may be plastic, or puttylike（似粘性材料）. In other words, the rock yields slowly to pressure nut is not liquid. But if some change in the earth’s crust releases the pressure, the rock melts. Then the hot, liquid rock can move up toward the surface.

Where the melted rock works its way closed to the earth’s crust, a volcano may be formed. The melted rock often contains steam and other gases under great pressure. If the rock above gives way, the pressure is released. Then the sudden expansion of the gases causes explosions. These blow the melted rock into pieces of different sizes and shoot them high in the air. Here they cool and harden into volcanic ash and cinders（灰烬）. Some of this material falls around the hole made in the earth’s surface. The melted rock may keep on rising and pour out as lava（岩浆）. In this way, volcanic ash, cinders, and lava build up the cone-shaped（锥形的）mountains that we call volcanoes.

64.The subject of this passage is the ____.

A. formation of volcanoes

B. results of volcanic action

C. interior of the earth

D. causes of the earth’s internal heat

65.The cause for the heat in the interior of the earth is probably ____.

A. radioactive elements

B. the great pressure of the earth

C. not determined

D. the heat remaining from the formation of the earth

66.From the information given in the passage, most minerals would melt fastest ____.

A. at 4000 ℉at sea level

B. at 4000 ℉, 5000 feet below sea level

C. in the absence of oxygen

D. at the exact center of the earth at 4000℉

67.If the temperature at the earth’s surface is 20℉the temperature in a coal mine 500 feet below

the surface would, in degrees, be ____.

A. 40

B. 30

C. 50

D. 120

Thirty-two people watched Kitty Genovese being killed right beneath their windows. She was their neighbor. Yet none of the 32 helped her. No one even called the police. Was this in gunman cru elty? Was it lack of feeling about one’s fellow man?

“Not so,” say scientists John Barley and Bib Fatane. These men went beyond the headlines to probe the reasons why people didn’t act. They found that a person has to go through two steps before he can help. First he has to notice that is an emergency.

Suppose you see a middle-aged man fall to the sidewalk. Is he having a heart attack? Is he in a coma（昏迷）from diabetes（糖尿病）? Or is he about to sleep off a drunk?

Is the smoking coming into the room from a leak in the air conditioning? Is it “steam pipes”? or is it really smoke from a fire? It’s not always easy to tell if you are facing a real emergency.

Second, and more important, the person faced with an emergency must feel personally responsible. He must feel that he must help, or the person won’t get the help he needs.

The researchers found that a lot depends on how many people are around. They had college students in to be “tested”. Some came alone. Some came with one or two others. And some came in large gr oups. The receptionist started them off on the “test”. Then she went into the next room.

A curtain divided the “testing room” and the room into which she went. Soon the student heard a scream, the noise of file cabinets falling and a cry for help. All of this had been pre-recorded on a tape recorder.

Eight out of ten of the students taking the test alone acted to help. Of the students in pairs, only two out of ten helped. Of the students in groups, none helped.

In other words, in a group, Americans often fail to act. They feel that others will act. They, themselves, needn’t. They do not feel any direct responsibility.

Are people bothered by situations where people are in trouble? Yes. Scientists found that they people were emotional, they sweated, they had t rembling hands. They felt the other person’s trouble. But they didn’t act. They were in a group. Their actions were shaped by the actions of those they were with.

68.The purpose of this passage is ____.

A. to explain why people fail to act in emergencies

B. to explain when people will act in emergencies

C. to explain what people will do in emergencies

D. to explain how people feel in emergencies

69.Which of the following is NOT true?

A. When a person tries to help others, he must be clear that there is a real emergency.

B. When a person tries to help others, he should know whether they are worth his help.

C. A person must take full responsibility for the safety of those in emergencies if he wants to

help.

D. A person with a heart attack needs help the most.

70.The main reason why people fail to act when they stay together is that ____.

A. they are afraid of emergencies

B. they are reluctant to get themselves involved

C. others will act if they themselves hesitate

D. they do not have any direct responsibility for those who need help

71.The author suggests that _____.

A. we shouldn’t blame a person if he fails to help

B. a person must feel guilty if he fails to help

C. people should be responsible for themselves in emergencies

D. when you are in trouble, people will help you anyway

The man traveling in the back of the ambulance which thrust its way through the streets of Baltimore that morning in 1967 had no business to be alive. By everything that was reasonable, and there were plenty of precedents, he should have been very dead indeed. But he wasn’t. As the people in the hospital pointed out after they had examined him, he was only slightly bruised. Yet he has just fallen 150 feet down a hotel lift shaft.

Unknown to the man, two things had occurred which were to affect his life that day. On the thirteenth floor of the hotel, somebody had carelessly left the lift gate open. Down in the basement, a pipe had burst and, before anyone could check the rush of water, it had flooded the bottom of the lift shaft to a depth of two feet.

Modern lifts have all sorts of fail-safe mechanisms to prevent accidents, but this was an ancient contraption（奇妙的装置）—unreliable, creaking, slow, hazardous（dangerous）, and suitable material for any scrap dealer who cared to take it away.

The man had plenty of things to occupy his mind that morning. He had overslept. The hotel had forgotten to call him and now he was late for an important business appointment. He dressed quickly, shaved hurriedly, grabbed his briefcase and hurried off down the hotel corridor.

Good! The lift gate was open. The lift must be there. He need not press the button and wait while the large, clumsy（badly-made）lift hauled its way upwards. Without looking or thinking he stepped out into space The lift cage was, in fact, one floor above him on the fourteenth. The world into which he had walked was a narrow space of not very fresh air, ending 150 feet below in two feet of dirty water.

The man descended（dropped）, making his journey to the ground at a speed he had never dreamed of. Confused patterns, whirling shapes, a rush of air, time enough to be afraid, split-second thoughts of death, then —crash.

Perhaps this gave him the record for some sort of high-diving act. No doubt in future he always looked before he leap. Certainly he learnt that this was no way to save time. The experts said that those two feet of water had saved his life.

72.How do we know that the story is true?

A. We are told the place and time.

B. We are given plenty of details.

C. Lifts often go wrong.

D. The man won a high-diving record.

73.By ‘had no business to be alive’ the writer means that the man ____.

A. had missed his business appointment.

B. was only just alive.

C. had done very little business.

D. was alive and this was very surprising.

74.The word “precedents” in paragraph 1 refers to ____.

A. other people who had had similar accidents.

B. rulers of countries.

C. the height which the man fell.

D. the man’s injuries.

75.Which of the following did NOT help to cause the accident?

A. Someone left the lift door open.

B. A pipe burst.

C. The man overslept.

D. He was late for an appointment.

试论高中英语教学的文化浸润

试论高中英语教学的文化浸润 发表时间：2018-09-14T10:35:23.770Z 来源：《中小学教育》2018年第331期作者：王丽婷[导读] 本文就根据笔者教学经验，简单地说一说，如何在英语教学中培养学生的文化意识。 甘肃省兰州市第五十三中学730000 摘要：在高中英语教学中培养学生的文化意识，已经成为了英语教学当中的重要教学目标之一。但长久以来，受到应试教育的影响，高中阶段的英语教学，往往更加重视学生的知识积累，而忽视了语言交流的文化意识。恰恰是因为文化的不同，学生难以正确地理解和使用英语，从而造成学习方法上的不正确，最终难以提升自己的学习成绩，更难以培养学生的英语学习兴趣。本文就根据笔者教学经验，简单地说一说，如何在英语教学中培养学生的文化意识。 关键词：高中英语英语教学文化教学 在注重英语，培养学生的文化意识，让学生能够深入语境地来理解英语、学习英语，可以说是最重要的一个情感教学目标。当学生具备一定的文化意识之后，学生就能听懂、会说、会用正确的英语，表达在自己的阅读和写作之中。 一、文化教学与词汇教学相融合 词汇是英语的基础，更是英语发展的重要建构者。可以说，英语学习的重要基础就是词汇量的掌握。因此，在高中英语教学过程中，教师首先需要引导学生重视起来的就是词汇。因为中西方的历史文化发展不同，因此，单词之间的对应关系并不是非常准确，甚至于有些词语，在中文的意义里表示的是贬义词，而在英文的表达当中，是一个中性词。因此，教师要想真正地让学生掌握这些单词的使用用法，就一定要将其文化背景和地道的文化意识传达给学生。例如，教师在进行rest room这个词汇的讲授的时候，就要联系西方的一些文化，将这个单词翻译为卫生间、厕所，而不是我们传统学习中理解的休息室。词汇的教学，不仅局限在单词意义上的不同，更多的则表现在习惯表达和俗语之间的差异。英文当中的习惯表达和俗语都是基于西方文化上的引申含义。因此，高中英语教师在进行英语教学的时候，一定要尽可能地丰富学生的文化意识，加强学生对单词的理解，扩展学生的视野，不能让学生只局限在课本内容之中。通过文化教学与词汇教学的融合，学生能够对英语学习产生巨大的兴趣，从而自主地参与到学习过程中去，提升自己的学习成绩。 二、文化教学与口语教学相结合 地道的口语表达一直以来都是衡量英语学习程度的重要标准。英语教师在进行英语教学的时候，一定要激发学生的口语练习意识，强化学生的口语表达能力。长时间给学生灌输地道的英文表达，锻炼学生的英语口语能力，能够潜移默化地提升学生的文化意识，促进学生英语思维的发展，将英美文化意识融入到自己的英语学习中。这样的教学不仅要求学生要注重口语，更是要求教师在进行教学的时候也要关注课堂的口语。也就是说，教师要尽可能地用英语来组织课堂。最简单的课堂中，你可以表现在鼓励和表扬这个角度，教师可以采用”You can make it.”” Have you got it?”这样的句式来组织课堂。除此以外，教师在进行虚拟语气讲解的时候也可以采用文化的形式来帮助学生理解。我们都知道，在中文的习惯表达当中，并没有虚拟语气这样的结构。因此，学生在进行虚拟语气这一个部分学习的时候，难度往往比较大。反事实推论的语气在中国应用比较少，其实教师反复强调是委婉语气的应用，学生也难以深度地理解所谓委婉的定义。这个时候教师就可以引入文化意识层面的教学，西方人的文化中更加强调独立，他们讨厌有指挥地参与别人的生活，因此在进行劝解和建议的时候，往往采用“If I were you, I’d….”这样的句型。如果教师在进行讲授的时候能不只关注内容，而是扩展格局关注文化，学生的英语水平一定能得到质的飞跃。 三、文化教学与阅读教学相结合 高中阶段的阅读文章，语言环境真实，内容大多贴近生活，涉及到的话题也灵活多样，更加适合学生参考和学习。正是因为广泛的阅读题材，才使得教学的丰富性和多样性能够在阅读教学中得以发挥。教师如果能够妥善地将这些阅读话题利用起来，就能够激发学生的参与学习兴趣，引导学生关注未来、关注眼下的生活，促进文化交流意识的提升和跨文化交际的能力，真正地提升学生的人文素质，建构起具有竞争力的核心素养。因此在阅读教学过程中，教师应充分挖掘教学内容蕴藏的文化内涵，有意识地结合课堂中的教学内容，向学生们传授历史文化方面的英美文化，甚至包括文学意识方面的内容，都要尽可能地进行渗透。课堂上可以采用对比的方式，让学生意识到中西方文化的差异，提升他们的文化意识敏感度，这样就能更加准确得体地理解和听说英语。尤其是涉及到中西方礼仪方面的问题，更是文化冲突的重要外在表现形式，教师完全可以让学生自主地去搜集一些这方面的问题，然后让学生逐一进行分析和比较，通过文化层面的分析来理解不同形式的传统礼仪，最终学会“入乡随俗”“尊重平等”，做一个有修养的人。 随着时代的发展和教育要求的不断推进，开展多元化的教学形式，不局限于知识的传授，引入文化层面的教育从而培养学生的综合能力已经成为教育趋势和最终的必然结果。身为高中英语教师的我们一定要树立科学的教学观，在不断地提升自己的语言技能和文化素养的同时，钻研实际的教学内容，将这些文化内涵融入到自己的教学过程中，从而游刃有余地开展教学，引导学生感受文化的差异，适应日新月异的未来发展。 参考文献 [1]吴迅试论高中英语教学中文化意识的培养[J].中学生英语（教师版），2012，（25）。 [2]潘飞婷试论文化教学策略在高中英语教学中的运用[J].中学生英语，2016，（46）。

人教版高中英语选修6各单元课文原文

选修6 Unit 1 Art-Reading A SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING Art is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. As there are so many different styles of Western art, it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones, starting from the sixth century AD. The Middle Ages (5th to the 15th century AD) During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was to represent religious themes. A conventional artist of this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. A typical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created feeling of respect and love for God. But it was evident that ideas were changing in the 13th century when painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way. The Renaissance (15th to 16th century) During the Renaissance, new ideas and values graduallv replaced those held in the Middle Ages.People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess t heir own paintings, so they could decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements. One of the most important discoveries during this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the roles of perspective had not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such realistic pictures. By coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces for which this period is famous. Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century) In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal. from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly industrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes. Naturally, these changes also led to new painting styles. Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists, who lived and worked in Paris.

如何走出高中英语文化教学的困境

如何走出高中英语文化教学的困境 摘要：英语文化教学是高中英语教学中的一部分，对于培养学生英语语言交际能力具有重要作用。但是，在长期以来的高中英语教学中，文化教学一直没有得到足够的重视，造成部分学生不了解中西方文化间的差异，导致其对英语的学习没有深入理解，不利于学生英语学习效率的提升。本文就对如何走出高中英语文化教学困境的有效策略进行探究。 关键词：高中英语；文化教学；困境 在英语语言课程中实现文化教学，就是把语言和文化相结合。在高中英语课堂教学中，教师让学生树立文化意识，将英语语言国家文化融入高中英语课堂教学中，从而逐渐实现提高学生跨文化交际的能力。 一、在词汇教学中融入文化教学 英语词汇，是学生英语学习的基础。为了走出高中英语文化教学的困境，教师可以从词汇教学入手。让学生通过学习英语词汇，掌握与该词汇相关的文化内涵。同时可以加深学生对英语词汇的理解，从而提高学生学习英语词汇的效率。 例如，在高中英语教材中，很多英语单词及短语都有

其来源和典故，蕴含着丰富的文化知识。因此，学生对其含义的理解，有助于学生对英语语言国家的文化的认识。如：He can be relied on. He eats no fish and plays the game.这句话蕴含eat no fish和play the game两个短语。从字面上看这两句话非常简单。但是，直译出来意思却相当不明确。第一句直译是：他可以依靠。第二句直译出来是：他不吃鱼但是他玩游戏。学生通过直译很难理解其含义。根据这一情况，教师可以为学生讲解短语相关的文化知识，如eat on fish是曾经英语伊丽莎白女皇时代，耶稣教徒为表示对英政府的忠诚，拒绝罗马天主教徒在星期五吃鱼的习惯，因此eat on fish又表示“忠诚”的意思。而play the game表示“公平对待”“为人正直”的意思，与play pair是同义词。这时学生能很容易理解这句话的意思（他很忠诚且为人正直，值得依靠）。但是，教师如果直接告诉学生这两个短语的意思，学生可能很容易忘记。而教师通过这种为学生讲解相关文化背景知识的方式为学生讲解，学生就很容易理解知识并且记忆深刻。 二、在阅读教学中融入文化教学 阅读中蕴含着大量的英语文化知识，有助于学生通过阅读从文本中获取所需信息。因此，在高中英语文化教学中，教师应注意帮助学生树立文化意识，让学生通过英语阅读获取新的知识，从而提高学生的认知水平与英语理解能力。
