Recently we have a debate about what English makes more differences to us. Some students think British English has more influence comparing with American English because it is the “original” variety of English and the BBC and many international newspapers use it.
However, others are in the favor of American English. They hold the view that most English language films are American, which has led to more and more people across the world used American English.
In my opinion, whichever English we use, we have no difficulties understanding each other, because they have a lot in common.

课时提能练(二十五)
Ⅰ. 阅读理解
A
(2019·河北五校联考)Two of the saddest words in the English language are“if only”.I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words,because they convey regrets,lost opportunities,mistakes,and disappointment.
My father is famous in our family for saying,“Take the extra minute to do it right. ”I always try to live by the “extra minute”rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents,I always thought about what I could do to avoid an“if only”moment,whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter,or something that required a little more work such as taping padding(衬垫) to the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.
I don't only avoid those“if only”moments when it comes to safety. It's equally important to avoid“if only”in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had forgone an opportunity to say“I love you”or“I forgive you”.When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday,I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn't be there. But then I thought about the fact that he was 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn't miss an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.
I know there will still be occasions when I have to say“if only”about something,but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right,or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection,I know that I'm doing the right thing. I'm buying myself peace of mind and that's the best kind of insurance for my emotional wellbeing.
【语篇解读】 “我”认为英语中最悲伤的两个词是“if only”,因为它们表达了遗憾。父亲在“我”小时候经常告诉我们花费额外的时间也要把事情做好来避免遗憾,“我”听从父亲的建议并认为这样做是对的。
1.Why does the writer regard“if only”as two of the saddest words in the English language?
A.Because people use them when they feel sad.
B.Because they express regrets and disappointment in life.
C.Because they remind the writer of some sad experiences.
D.Because they mean sadness in the English language.
B [细节理解题。由第一段中的“Two of the saddest words in the English language are‘if only’... because they convey regrets,lost opportunities,mistakes,and disappointment”可知,“我”认为英语中最令人伤心的两个词是“if only”,因为这两个词表达了后悔、错失的机会、错误和失望,故选B项。]
2.What's the meaning of the underlined word“forgone”in Paragraph 3?
A.Given up. B.Come across.
C.Got through. D.Held back.
A [词义猜测题。该词所在的句子表达的意思是:我们都认识这样的人,他们在失去所爱之人后会后悔错失了说“我爱你”或“我原谅你”的机会。所以画线词表示“失去了”,和短语give up意思接近。故选A项。]
3.The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to ________.
A.see a doctor
B.finish her work
C.join a celebration
D.accompany her father
D [细节理解题。题干中的关键信息“decided to go to her office”对应原文中的“I had decided to go to work”,由此定位到倒数第二段。从倒数第二段可以看出,“我”知道父亲要去自己办公室对面看眼科医生时,本来打算按原计划休假,但突然意识到父亲已经84岁了,所以“我”决定即便是自己的休息日,为了陪父亲,也会去上班。故选D项。]
4.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Advice from My Father
B.Avoidance of Saying“If Only”
C.The“Extra Minute”Rule
D.The Importance of Emotional Wellbeing
B [标题归纳题。根据首尾段的第一句话及文章大意可知,本文主要是针对避免说英语中最伤心的两个词“if only”进行阐述的,所以B项“避免说‘if only’”符合全文内容。]
B
(2019·贵阳市摸底考试)It's good to make mistakes,and here is why.
First of all,mistakes are a clear sign that we are trying new things. It's always good to try new things because when we are trying new things,we are growing. If we never try anything new,how can we improve? The simple answer is,“We can't”.
Another good thing about mistakes is that when we are making them,we are learning. Consider this—Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times,he said that he had learned 10,000 things that didn't work.
When we make a mistake,we are much closer to success. Because every time we make a mistake,we eliminate one of the things that keep us from success.
But all this doesn't mean that we should go through life without considering the consequences of a mistake. Instead,when we try something new,we have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesn't work out the way we want it to,we will be in a position to try again. We all have limited resources—in the form of time and money—so we shouldn't blow them all on one approach to a problem. It's best that we realize it probably won't be perfect for the first time and allocate these resources appropriately so we can learn,make corrections,and try again. Only by accepting and using our mistakes in this way can we make significant advances in our lives.
There is an old saying that goes,“If you're not making mistakes,you're not trying hard enough”.So go forth and make mistakes.
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍犯错误的一些好处以及利用错误获得成功的策略。
5.Which can be used to replace the underlined word “eliminate” in Paragraph 4?
A.Make up for. B.Get rid of.
C.Accept. D.Expect.
B [词义猜测题。根据第四段第一句“When we make a mistake,we are much closer to success”并结合对画线词所在句的理解可知,当犯错误时,我们就除去了一些阻碍成功的因素。由此可推知,eliminate与get rid of意思相近,意为“除去”,故选B。]
6.What do we know from the fifth paragraph?
A.We should ignore the possible consequences.
B.We should accept the outcome willingly.
C.We should make some limits for our next try.
D.We should avoid making the same mistakes.
C [细节理解题。根据第五段第二句“Instead,when we try something new,we have to be willing to set some reasonable limits”可知,我们应该为下一次尝试设置一些合理的限度,故选C。]
7.What is the text mainly about?
A.Dealing with mistakes.
B.Making mistakes.
C.Making progress.
D.Benefiting from mistakes.
D [主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“It's good to make mistakes,and here is why”的开篇点题,并结合对全文的整体理解可知,本文主要讲述犯错误的一些好处,以及利用这些错误获得成功的策略,故选D。]
8.What may the writer suggest we say to ourselves when making a mistake?
A.Never mind,I tried my best.
B.Great! Now I have learned something.
C.This is a waste of time.
D.Look at this mess. I should just give up.
B [推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Another good thing about mistakes is that when we are making them,we are learning”可推知,当犯错误时,我们要意识到我们也是在学习,从而更接近成功;本段中爱迪生改进灯泡的例证也告诉我们,当我们犯错时,我们可以告诉自己:“很好!现在我学到了一些东西”,故选B。]

Recently we have a debate about what English makes more differences to us. Some students think British English has more influence comparing with American English because it is the “original” variety of English and the BBC and many international newspapers use it.
However, others are in the favor of American English. They hold the view that most English language films are American, which has led to more and more people across the world used American English.
In my opinion, whichever English we use, we have no difficulties understanding each other, because they have a lot in common.

课时提能练(二十五)
Ⅰ. 阅读理解
A
(2019·河北五校联考)Two of the saddest words in the English language are“if only”.I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words,because they convey regrets,lost opportunities,mistakes,and disappointment.
My father is famous in our family for saying,“Take the extra minute to do it right. ”I always try to live by the “extra minute”rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents,I always thought about what I could do to avoid an“if only”moment,whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter,or something that required a little more work such as taping padding(衬垫) to the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.
I don't only avoid those“if only”moments when it comes to safety. It's equally important to avoid“if only”in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had forgone an opportunity to say“I love you”or“I forgive you”.When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday,I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn't be there. But then I thought about the fact that he was 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn't miss an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.
I know there will still be occasions when I have to say“if only”about something,but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right,or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection,I know that I'm doing the right thing. I'm buying myself peace of mind and that's the best kind of insurance for my emotional wellbeing.
【语篇解读】 “我”认为英语中最悲伤的两个词是“if only”,因为它们表达了遗憾。父亲在“我”小时候经常告诉我们花费额外的时间也要把事情做好来避免遗憾,“我”听从父亲的建议并认为这样做是对的。
1.Why does the writer regard“if only”as two of the saddest words in the English language?
A.Because people use them when they feel sad.
B.Because they express regrets and disappointment in life.
C.Because they remind the writer of some sad experiences.
D.Because they mean sadness in the English language.
B [细节理解题。由第一段中的“Two of the saddest words in the English language are‘if only’... because they convey regrets,lost opportunities,mistakes,and disappointment”可知,“我”认为英语中最令人伤心的两个词是“if only”,因为这两个词表达了后悔、错失的机会、错误和失望,故选B项。]
2.What's the meaning of the underlined word“forgone”in Paragraph 3?
A.Given up. B.Come across.
C.Got through. D.Held back.
A [词义猜测题。该词所在的句子表达的意思是:我们都认识这样的人,他们在失去所爱之人后会后悔错失了说“我爱你”或“我原谅你”的机会。所以画线词表示“失去了”,和短语give up意思接近。故选A项。]
3.The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to ________.
A.see a doctor
B.finish her work
C.join a celebration
D.accompany her father
D [细节理解题。题干中的关键信息“decided to go to her office”对应原文中的“I had decided to go to work”,由此定位到倒数第二段。从倒数第二段可以看出,“我”知道父亲要去自己办公室对面看眼科医生时,本来打算按原计划休假,但突然意识到父亲已经84岁了,所以“我”决定即便是自己的休息日,为了陪父亲,也会去上班。故选D项。]
4.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Advice from My Father
B.Avoidance of Saying“If Only”
C.The“Extra Minute”Rule
D.The Importance of Emotional Wellbeing
B [标题归纳题。根据首尾段的第一句话及文章大意可知,本文主要是针对避免说英语中最伤心的两个词“if only”进行阐述的,所以B项“避免说‘if only’”符合全文内容。]
B
(2019·贵阳市摸底考试)It's good to make mistakes,and here is why.
First of all,mistakes are a clear sign that we are trying new things. It's always good to try new things because when we are trying new things,we are growing. If we never try anything new,how can we improve? The simple answer is,“We can't”.
Another good thing about mistakes is that when we are making them,we are learning. Consider this—Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times,he said that he had learned 10,000 things that didn't work.
When we make a mistake,we are much closer to success. Because every time we make a mistake,we eliminate one of the things that keep us from success.
But all this doesn't mean that we should go through life without considering the consequences of a mistake. Instead,when we try something new,we have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesn't work out the way we want it to,we will be in a position to try again. We all have limited resources—in the form of time and money—so we shouldn't blow them all on one approach to a problem. It's best that we realize it probably won't be perfect for the first time and allocate these resources appropriately so we can learn,make corrections,and try again. Only by accepting and using our mistakes in this way can we make significant advances in our lives.
There is an old saying that goes,“If you're not making mistakes,you're not trying hard enough”.So go forth and make mistakes.
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍犯错误的一些好处以及利用错误获得成功的策略。
5.Which can be used to replace the underlined word “eliminate” in Paragraph 4?
A.Make up for. B.Get rid of.
C.Accept. D.Expect.
B [词义猜测题。根据第四段第一句“When we make a mistake,we are much closer to success”并结合对画线词所在句的理解可知,当犯错误时,我们就除去了一些阻碍成功的因素。由此可推知,eliminate与get rid of意思相近,意为“除去”,故选B。]
6.What do we know from the fifth paragraph?
A.We should ignore the possible consequences.
B.We should accept the outcome willingly.
C.We should make some limits for our next try.
D.We should avoid making the same mistakes.
C [细节理解题。根据第五段第二句“Instead,when we try something new,we have to be willing to set some reasonable limits”可知,我们应该为下一次尝试设置一些合理的限度,故选C。]
7.What is the text mainly about?
A.Dealing with mistakes.
B.Making mistakes.
C.Making progress.
D.Benefiting from mistakes.
D [主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“It's good to make mistakes,and here is why”的开篇点题,并结合对全文的整体理解可知,本文主要讲述犯错误的一些好处,以及利用这些错误获得成功的策略,故选D。]
8.What may the writer suggest we say to ourselves when making a mistake?
A.Never mind,I tried my best.
B.Great! Now I have learned something.
C.This is a waste of time.
D.Look at this mess. I should just give up.
B [推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Another good thing about mistakes is that when we are making them,we are learning”可推知,当犯错误时,我们要意识到我们也是在学习,从而更接近成功;本段中爱迪生改进灯泡的例证也告诉我们,当我们犯错时,我们可以告诉自己:“很好!现在我学到了一些东西”,故选B。]
