课时分层作业(三)Ⅰ.阅读In the 1940s, Lena Horne was the first African­American in Hollywood to sign a long­term contract with a major movie studio.Her deal with MGM stated that she would never play the role of a servant.During this period, African­American actors were mostly limited to playing servants or African natives.But this refusal also limited her movie career.Horne was generally only offered the role of a nightclub singer.Her characters did not interact with white characters in these movies.This way, her part could be cut from the version of the movie that played in Southern States.Lena Horne later wrote that the movie producers did not make her into a servant, but they did not make her into anything else, either.Lena Horne once said that World War Ⅱ helped make her a star.She was popular with both black and white servicemen.She sang on army radio programs and traveled to perform for the troops.During one event, she noted that German prisoners of war were permitted to sit closer to the stage than black soldiers.These experiences led to Lena Horne's work in the Civil Rights Movement.She protested racial separation at the hotels where she performed.She took action so that she and her musicians would be permitted to stay in those hotels.Black musicians at the time generally stayed in black neighborhoods.Lena Horne also sang at civil rights gatherings.She took part in the March on Washington protest in 1963.It was during this event that Martin Luther King gave his “I Have a Dream” speech.Lena Horne performed in a strong and expressive way.One expert said she was not warm and amiable like white female singers at the time.Instead, she was a fierce black woman.【语篇解读】　莲纳·荷恩是一位好莱坞黑人女星，她积极为黑人争取权利，为打破种族隔离而努力。1．Lena Horne refused to play the role of a servant probably because she thought playing such a role         ．A．would make her homesickB．wouldn't make her famousC．meant she wasn't treated fairlyD．wouldn't help her make moneyC　[推理判断题。根据第一段的“During this period, African­American actors were mostly limited to playing servants or African natives.”可知，当时黑人演员并没有得到公正的对待，莲纳·荷恩拒绝演仆人是因为她觉得只让黑人演员演仆人有失公正。]2．When Lena Horne saw how German prisoners and black soldiers were seated, how did she most probably feel?A．Angry.　　　　　　　 B．Satisfied.C．Interested.   D．Moved.A　[推理判断题。根据第三段的“These experiences led to Lena Horne's work in the Civil Rights Movement.”可知那样的座位安排刺激了莲纳·荷恩，使得她参与到了人权运动中，故可推断她当时是很生气的。]3．Paragraph 4 mainly tells about Lena Horne's         ．A．hope for a bright futureB．effort she put into musicC．effort against racial separationD．relationship with Martin Luther King C　[段落大意题。通读第四段可知，本段主要是讲Lena Horne在争取打破种族隔离方面的努力。]BTips for avoiding traffic jams：The radio has more than just music.Check the local news station for the latest traffic report.Or go online and check traffic cameras before you set out.If there is a jam, you'll be prepared and can try another route.Take the road less traveled.Although highways may be the most direct route, back (偏僻的) roads can be much less crowded, which can save you from the frustration of the stop­and­go traffic.Rush hour isn't just a lovely nickname.It means the morning and afternoon traffic lasts for several hours, but they're still called “rush hour” for a reason—everyone's on the road and in a hurry to get somewhere.Treat rush hour like bad weather—if you don't have to go anywhere, stay off the roads.Tips for those unavoidable traffic jams：Don't break the law.You've gone 30 feet in 30 minutes and all of a sudden you see people using the shoulders (紧急停车道 )．Don't behave like them.Not only is this illegal, but also there's a good chance they'll get caught or cause even more problems.Pay extra attention to zig­zaggers (Z字形行进者)．When some people are anxious, they may start changing lanes (车道) every 5 seconds or cut you off.Keep checking your windows and mirrors for these lane changers.Look for an escape.If it is possible to exit the road safely, do it.Use a GPS unit, and you can change your route mid­trip if needed.Be courteous．Good manners could help you avoid a possible accident.Allow people in from a lane that is ending.Speeding up to keep them out increases your chances of an accident.【语篇解读】　交通堵塞是我们生活中不可避免的一部分，我们应该如何避免交通堵塞呢？遇到交通堵塞又该如何做呢？本文给我们提供了一些建议。4．To avoid traffic jams, we are advised to do the following EXCEPT         ．A．getting traffic news before leavingB．choosing back roadsC．avoiding rush hoursD．changing lanes frequentlyD　[细节理解题。根据Tips for avoiding traffic jams 部分可知，A、B、C三项都是作者建议我们做的，而D项“更换车道”出现在Tips for those unavoidable traffic jams部分，并且是作者反对的做法，故选D项。]5. What should we do when there are zig­zaggers?A．Keep checking the mirrors.B．Stop and let them go first.C．Sound the horn loudly.D．Drive quickly to keep them out.A　[细节理解题。根据“Pay extra attention to zig­zaggers”一段可知，作者建议我们通过不断查看车窗和后视镜来密切关注Z字形行进的汽车。故选A项。]6. What does the underlined word “courteous” in the last paragraph mean?A．Energetic.　　　　　　 B．Polite.C．Careful.   D．Honest.B　[词义猜测题。最后一段主要讲述驾车的礼貌问题，因此判断courteous一词在这里意为“有礼貌的”。故B项正确。]7．In which part of a magazine can this passage be found?A．Entertainment.   B．Life.C．Market.   D．Advertisement.B　[文章出处题。交通堵塞的问题是我们生活的一部分，故最可能选自杂志的“生活”板块。]Ⅱ.读后续写阅读下列材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。It was time to go home.“Remember to work on your class speeches for homework，”Miss Walker called, as everyone started talking and packing their school bags.Jenny felt sick.She hated having to read aloud in class.She was sure everyone got really bored listening to her.Once, when Jenny was reading out her holiday diary，Lee was even looking at his watch, a silver and blue one which seemed just magical.Jenny watched Lee walk ahead of her as they left school.He seemed so clever, and he had a certain sort of shining confidence.He was just one of those people who were good at everything.Jenny sighed.As she turned the corner, she saw Lee's watch lying right in the middle of the path.Jenny knew she should just pick it up and return it to him, but she didn't want to run after him.Jenny bent down quickly, picked up the watch and ran home.On arriving home，Jenny put it on almost without thinking.She was surprised it fitted so well.She walked to the mirror and started practicing her speech.Words just flooded out of her.“I'm going to talk about swimming.I have been lucky.I've won lots of competitions.But when I'm in a race, I'm not really thinking about winning.I'm just loving the feeling of being in the water...”Jenny laughed with excitement.She walked across the room.She suddenly seemed to have a certain sort of confidence.Turning back to the mirror, Jenny saw a flash of light from the watch in the glass.The flash of silver seemed almost magical.So maybe Lee's watch really DID have something magic about it.The next day, as the lesson began, Miss Walker asked who was going to be brave and go first.Nobody moved.Jenny slowly raised her arm.Before Miss Walker could say anything, there was a shout from behind.“She's stolen my watch！” Lee said angrily.“It went missing at school yesterday.”Paragraph 1：Everybody was fixing their eyes on Jenny, waiting for an explanation.                                                         Paragraph 2：At that, Miss Walker smiled and asked the class to listen to Jenny's speech first.                                                         【参考范文】Paragraph 1：Everybody was fixing their eyes on Jenny, waiting for an explanation.Jenny didn't answer.How could she explain about the watch and its magic? No one could understand.No one could believe.“But I saw you wearing it yesterday，” Miss Walker gently reminded him.For a moment Lee remained silent and then he apologized he had just remembered that.Jenny was relieved saying she had found it on the way home and decided to return it after the speech.Everybody was puzzled and asked why.Jenny again was speechless.Paragraph 2：At that，Miss Walker smiled and asked the class to listen to Jenny's speech first.Jenny walked slowly to the front.She couldn't think properly.All round her, a sea of faces were watching.She felt so frightened and the watch didn't seem magical at all.Suddenly she saw Miss Walker's encouraging eyes.Jenny took a deep breath.“I'm going to talk about swimming...” Ten minutes later the whole class stood up applauding Jenny's wonderful speech.Jenny smiled as she eventually realized the real source of confidence.
