Which of the following best describes David? A. Creative and calculating. B. Ambitious and determined. C. Independent and generous. D. Optimistic and cautious. Key: 1. C。由第三段This 17-year-old student bought his first gumball machine about 18 months ago “just for something to do”.可知答案为C。 2. A。由下文提到的“My sales doubled when I added that sign”可知在贴上“大学基金”的牌子后，David的生意变得非常红火，销售量大增，故选A。skyrocketed意为“突升，猛涨”，与took off （腾飞，突然成功）意思相近。 3. C。由最后四段可以推知C为正确答案。A文中没有提及，由倒数第三段可知母亲对David的所作所为非常欣赏，故B不对；C项的后半句“is also running a small restaurant now”不对。 4. B。由全文可以看出David是一个非常独立的、有远大志向、富有创新精神且百折不挠的人，故答案为B。其他选项都有一个词体现不出来，如A项的calculating, C项的generous, D项的cautious。 Group work: What can you learn from David? IV. Language study 1. But it wasn’t until he added a full-color “My College Fund” sign above the candy-filled globe late last year that his business skyrocketed. 本句使用了It is not until…+that…强调句型，强调时间状语。 2. As with any business model, things in the candy market are not always sweet. 短语as with表示“如同，和……一样”，例如：As with all diseases, certain groups will be more at risk than others. 所有的疾病都是如此，一些人比另一些人更容易受到威胁。 Tofu or bean curd is a traditional Chinese food known all over the world. It originated in ancient China some 2,000 years ago. Ø What are the benefits of eating tofu? Tofu is relatively high in protein. The health benefits of tofu as a meat substitute are numerous. Consuming tofu regularly helps lower bad cholesterol (胆固醇), alleviates (减轻) symptoms associated with menopause (更年期) and even lowers the risk of cancer. Other major health benefits of tofu compared to meat include making middle-aged bones stronger and delaying the ravages of age. Tofu has been found to be a great source of calcium and vitamin E as well. Ø What is your favorite way of cooking tofu? II. Reading Read the text and choose the best answer: 1. When tofu was introduced to the West, it ____. A. was not accepted, just like rice B. was well-received mostly by hippies C. was difficult to find things to cook with it D. was viewed as a toy instead of food 2. The phrase “missed the boat” in the second paragraph probably means ____.

A. it is beneficial to eat tofu now and then B. a new creative way to cook tofu has been praised C. tofu is becoming a staple at Western dinner parties D. tofu is becoming popular in the West Key: 1. B。由第一段最后一句话可知B为正确答案。 2. A。上文提到了豆腐在西方遭遇歧视，而下文又进一步提到了当欧洲人把大米和豆腐先后带到西方时，大米遇到了优待，而豆腐则错失良机，没有那么成功，所以missed the boat表示“没有利用好机会，错失良机”，故选A。 3. B。由第三段最后一句话可知B为正确答案。 4. D。最后一段的中心句是该段的首句，下文以Justin Timberlake和food experts such as Nigel Slater and Fuchsia Dunlop为例来说明豆腐在西方日渐流行，故答案为D。 III. Language study 1. WHILE tofu is a household name in Asia, it has still not been completely accepted into the Western kitchen. Today, fashion designers are household names. 2. Why is it that such a staple (主要的) ingredient in the East has been subject to (遭受) such discrimination (歧视) in the West? Be subject to表示“易遭受……的；可能受……影响的”。 In recent years, she has been subject to attacks of depression. Good news vs bad news (P5) I. Pre-reading Ø Which kind of news are you more likely to share with your friends, good news or bad news? Why? II. Reading Read the text and choose the best answer: 1. Why do mass media like to report bad news according to the article? A. They want to attract the attention of readers. B. They care a lot about how readers react. C. They think bad news spreads faster than good news. D. They want to show concern for people in disaster-hit areas. 2. Which of the following is TRUE about Berger’s and his colleague’s study? A.

It was aimed at finding out whether mass media should cover more tragedies. D. Good news usually helps the audience relieve their negative emotions. 3. We can conclude from the last three paragraphs that ____. A. watching news is good for people’s health B. people shouldn’t be jealous of their friends C. sharing good news with friends will double your happiness D. people might not be as happy as they suggest on their micro blogs 4. What’s the article mainly about? A. Why bad news is covered most often. B. Why good news spreads faster than bad news. C. How people react differently to bad and good news. D. Which kind of news makes the audience feel better. Key: 1. A。根据第二段的“They want your eyeballs”和第七段的“the mass media prefers news that gets attention”可以得此答案。 2. A。由第五段可以得此答案。B、C、D文中都没有提到。 3. D。最后三段的大意是：面对更多人的时候，人们倾向于分享自己更积极正面的东西，所以在微博上展现的一般都是假期过得多么完美等等，但是分享这种快乐可能会让他们的朋友们觉得生活不公平或者感觉自己不快乐。 4. B。这篇文章的中心内容是介绍新的研究发现人们乐于传播好的正面的消息，并分析了其中的原因，故选B。 III. Language study 1. The difference between the two is due to the fact that the mass media prefers news that gets attention, while when you share a story with your friends “you care a lot more about how they react”, Berger explained. 句中that引导同位语从句，进一步说明fact的具体内容。while表示对比，意思是“然而”。句意为：Berger解释道：这两者的区别在于这样一个事实——媒体更偏好那些抓眼球的新闻，而当你与朋友分享故事的时候，你更多关心他们会对该故事做出怎样的反应。 2. According to a study by researchers at Harvard University, people tend to say more positive things about themselves when they’re talking to a bigger audience, rather than just one person, which helps explain all the perfect vacations that keep showing up on micro blogs. 句中which引导非限制性定语从句，which指代前面的整个分句“people tend to say more positive things about themselves when they’re talking to a bigger audience, rather than just one person”。句意为：根据哈佛大学研究人员的研究发现，相比与单个人交流，人们在与更大的听众群体交流时更趋向于说一些积极的事情。这种现象有助于解释所有在微博上展示的完美假期。 |
