(2022·湖南浏阳高一期末)

And now,Words and Their Stories,from VOA Learning English.On this program we explore terms and expressions in the English language.And today we talk about a word that will help you talk about the best of times.That word is heyday.If you are in your heyday you are in your prime.You are at the peak of your abilities.You are having your best days ever!

Some people had their heydays when they were young,maybe in college or high school.They consider themselves past their prime.They might talk about those past experiences only and not plan for new experiences in the future.These people might be stuck in their glory days.Other things besides people can have a heyday.If you are at the pinnacle of success,you could say your career is having a heyday.Also,a place,like a city,can have a heyday and so can an industry.

For example,I grew up in the rust belt of West Virginia.In its heyday,my hometown was known for its steel industry.In fact,every man in my family worked in the steel mills.But when the industry shrank,the steel factory jobs disappeared.The city fell on hard times and today is still trying to recover.

However,many other parts of West Virginia are having a tourism heyday because of the beautiful natural environment.

So,where does the word heyday come from?Some word experts say that it first appeared in English in the 16th century as an interjection.An interjection is a word or cry(such as “ouch”) that expresses a sudden or strong feeling.So,“heyday” was used to express extreme happiness or wonder.Around the same time,“heyday” was also used as a noun meaning “high spirits”.

Meriam-Webster online dictionary says it was not until the 18th century that the word was used to mean “the period when one’s achievement or popularity has reached its zenith”.Usually,we use heyday in the singular form.

Saying the plural is a little less common.And that’s all the time we have for this Words and Their Stories.Until next time,I’m Anna Matteo.

1.Which of the situations is proper to use the word “heyday”?

A.A rich man.

B.A hard period.

C.A significant event.

D.A popular place.

2.What does “zenith” in the sixth paragraph probably mean?

A.Peak.　　　　　B.Quality.

C.Quantity. D.Bottom.

3.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A.How to Learn English

B.Words and Their Stories

C.Heyday—The Best of Times

D.An Introduction of the Idioms

4.Where is the passage probably taken from?

A.A TV show. 

B.A radio program.

C.A language salon. 

D.A speech competition.

One of the most important ways to learn and master the English language is to read,read,and read.It is said that a good reader is also a good writer and a good speaker.However,in today’s world,reading is something that most children dislike doing.

There are simply so many distractions (分心的事物) that books,magazines,and newspapers are often ignored and they are in favour of video games and movies.And while video games and movies also play a role in helping the child learn the English language,they still can’t quite compare to reading.

And as a result,kids are learning less and less.Take a look at an elementary level textbook.You’ll notice that the books for elementary students are filled with pictures and colours.Those pictures and colours in the elementary level textbooks aren’t there just for the sake (缘由) of design.Colours and pictures make us more engaged in the act of learning grammar.They catch our attention and help us retain (保留) more of what we read.This is especially true for little children who enjoy fun English.

Children are quite easily distracted.When you ask them to sit down and read quietly,their minds will often wander and it won’t take long before you find them doodling (涂鸦) and not doing what you told them to do.But if a book is colourful enough to catch a kid’s attention,then you’ll have a better chance at getting the kid to sit down long enough to learn English.

The same principle holds true for interactivity (互动).Like colours and pictures,interactive reading materials like English songs for kids also get the child engaged in what he or she is learning.Interactive reading materials get the child to focus since using them is almost like playing.

5.Why do children dislike reading?

A.They prefer newspapers.

B.They prefer films.

C.They prefer magazines.

D.They prefer books.

6.Children will be interested in books that are 　　　. 

A.full of pictures

B.explained clearly

C.written clearly

D.not very hard

7.Colourful books can help the children 　　　. 

A.do what they prefer

B.have a good time

C.fix their attention for a longer time

D.sit still and quietly

8.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A.Reading is one of the most important ways in learning languages.

B.All the books are full of pictures and colours.

C.Interactivity and colourful designs are important to learn English.

D.Interactive reading is very interesting for children.

Ⅴ.语篇填空

Different Countries Have Different Kinds of Englishes

Voyages of people from England play an important part in 1.　　　　　　　(spread) the English language.2. present,English is frequently spoken as an official or a common language in many countries,such as America,Singapore,Malaysia and some African countries,all of 3.　　　　　　　 are based on British English.The Englishes spoken in these countries can 4. (understand) well by native English speakers.But actually,these Englishes have been changing gradually in accents,spellings,expressions and the usage of vocabulary.Because of this fact,you can make use of the differences 5.　　　　　　　　 (tell) which country the foreigners of your block are from.For example,if a boss 6.　　　　　　　 (fluent) commands his driver,“Come up straight to my apartment 7. elevator and take some gas for my trucks and cabs”,instead of requesting,“Please come to my flat by lift and take some petrol for my 8.　　　　　(lorry) and taxis”,you can recognise 9.　　　　　 (he) American identity while the latter 10.　　　　　 (suggest) that he is British.

(2022·山东临沂高一期末)

Willie’s aunt sent him for a birthday present a little writing book.There was a place in the book for a pencil.Willie thought a great deal of this little book,and always kept it in his pocket.

One day,his mother was very busy,and he called his dog,and said,“Come,Caper,let us have a play.” When Willie’s mother missed him,she went to the door and looked out,and could not see him anywhere;but she knew that Caper was with him,and thought they would come back before long.She waited an hour,and still they did not come.When she came to the gate by the road,she met Mr.Lee,Willie’s father,and told him how long Willie had been gone.Mr.Lee thought he must have gone to sleep under the trees.So they went to all the trees under which Willie was in the habit of playing,but he was not here to be found.By this time the sun had gone down the news that Willie was lost soon spread over the neighbourhood,and all the men and women turned out to hunt.They hunted all night.The next morning the neighbours were gathered round,and all were trying to think what to do next,when Caper came bounding into the room.

There was a string tied round his neck,and a bit of paper tied to it.Mr.Lee,took the paper,and saw that it was a letter from Willie.He read it aloud.It said,“Oh father!Come to me.I am in the big hole in the pasture(牧场).”

Everybody ran at once to the far corner of the pasture,and there was Willie,alive and well in the shaft(通风井).Oh,how glad he was when his father caught him in his arms,and lifted him out!

Now I will tell you how Willie came to be in the shaft and the whole story.He and Caper went to the pasture field,and came to the edge of the shaft and sat down.In bending over to see how deep it was,he lost his balance and fell in.

注意: 续写词数应为150左右。

He tried very hard to get out,but could not. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

When he awoke,it was morning,and he began to think of a way to get out._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Ⅵ.Dear Paul,

Hearing that you run into difficulties with your Chinese listening,I’m writing to express my concern and offer you some advice on how to learn it well.

Your problem is so common among foreign learners that you needn’t worry too much.As the saying goes,practice makes perfect!So it’s a good idea to practice Chinese daily.Besides,listening to Chinese radio programs is a better choice,which cannot only entertain you,but also improve your listening skills.Additionally,you can communicate with your Chinese teacher who can tell you how to improve your Chinese listening ability effectively.

I hope my advice can be helpful!Wish you all the best.

Yours,

Li Hua

Ⅶ.　　He tried very hard to get out,but could not.When the good little dog saw that his master was in the shaft,he would not leave him,but ran round and round,reaching down and trying to pull him out.But while Caper was pulling Willie by the coat sleeves,a piece of sod gave way under his feet,and he fell in too.Willie called for his father and mother as loud as he could but he was so far away from the house that no one could hear him.He cried and called till it was dark,and then he lay down on the ground,and Caper lay down close beside him.It was not long before Willie cried himself in sleep.

When he awoke,it was morning,and he began to think of a way to get out.The little writing book that his aunt had given him was in his pocket.He took it out,and after a good deal of trouble,wrote the letter to his father.Then he tore the leaf out,and took a string out of his pocket,and tied it round Caper’s neck,and tied the letter to the string.Then he lifted the dog up,helped him out,and said to him,“Go home,Caper,go home!” The little dog scampered away,and was soon at home.
