2、ay! Ive also learned that there was a special computer. It could play chess even betterthan humans.

3、aw so many different kinds of toilets there. The museum teaches people about the history and development of toilets.

5、馆。他们有关于不同计算机和其发明者的信息。老式的计算机是相当大的，难以置信科技如此快速的进步。我也了解到了那有一种很特殊的电脑，它甚至比人类下象棋还厉害，我想知道有多少电脑能够做到未来。Amy：我最近去了印度一个非常不寻常的博物馆，关于厕所的国际博物馆。当我在那里看到各种各样的厕所时我简直不能相信自己的眼睛。博物馆介绍人们一些关于厕所的历史和发展，也鼓励政府和社会群体们思考未来厕所的改进和提高。Linlin：去年我去了杭州国际茶博物馆，那是一个在湖边既放松又安宁的地方。茶艺表演展示了用漂亮的茶具如何沏一杯完美的茶。观看茶的准备如同喝茶般享受。最终我意识到了为什么我的外婆爱喝茶和收集茶具。知识点

6、：1.此句是一个省略引导词的定语从句，从句为Ive ever been to，修饰museum，意为“我曾经去过的最有趣的博物馆是.” 2.invent 作动词，意为“发明；创造”。invent的名词形式有两个，一个是inventor（发明者；发明家），另一个是invention（发明物）。【拓展】invent和discover的辨析：（1）invent 意为“发明，发明之物”指“从无到有”。例如：Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876. 亚历山大格雷厄姆贝尔在1876年发明了电话。（2）discover 意为“发现”，指“本来

7、就已经存在，但不为人知”的事物。例如：Columbus discovered America in 1492. 哥伦布在1492年发现了美洲。3.progress n.进步，发展；v.进步，发展；make progress 取得进步（progress为不可数名词），make progress in“在某方面取得进步”。4.rapid“快速的”，fast、quick、rapid辨析：fast “快”一般指物体的运动速度(speed)快，常用来形容交通工具跑得快，钟表走得快，人的动作快等。如：A car goes faster than a truck. 小汽车比卡车跑得快。quick 指较短的时

8、间或较近的将来即可发生或完成某事，常用来形容动作敏捷、反应迅速。如： Please give me a quick reply. 请迅速给我答复。rapid 表速度之快，往往可与fast通用，但它多指运动本身。如：The boy is making rapid progress. 这孩子进步很快。5.even better此处even修饰比较级better，以加强比较的语气和程度。常见的修饰形容词或副词比较级的词有：a little、a bit、a lot、a great deal、any、much、even、still、by（far）、rather。6.encourage 作动词，意为“鼓励

9、”。encourage sb. to do sth.意为“鼓励某人做某事”。例如：The teacher often encourages us to study hard. encourage sb. in sth. 意为“在方面鼓励/助长某人”。例如：Dont encourage him in laziness. 别助长他的懒惰行为。encouragement是encourage的名词形式，意为“鼓舞/鼓励”。Section B 2bSingapore-A Place You Will Never Forget!Have you ever been to Singapore? For th

10、ousands oftourists from China, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful and safe place to take a holiday. On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, so you can simply speak Putonghua a lot of the time. On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking countr

11、y, so its also a good place to practice your English!Have you ever tried Chinese food outside of China? Maybe you fear that you wont be able to find anything good to eat when you travel. In Singapore, however, you ll find a lot of food from China; you wont have any problem getting rice, noodles or d

12、umplings. Singapore is also an excellent place to try new food. Whetheryou like Indian food, Western food or Japanese food,you ll find it all in Singapore!Most large cities have zoos, but have you ever been to a zoo at night? Singapore has a Night Safari. It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it

13、s dark. However, if you go to see lions, tigers or foxes during the daytime, theyll probably be asleep! A lot of animals only wake up at night, so this is the best time to watch them. At the Night Safari, you can watch these animals in a more natural environment than in a normal zoo.One great thing

14、about Singapore is that the temperature is almost the same all year round.This is because the island is so close to the equator. So you can choose to go whenever you like-spring, summer, autumn or winter. And, of course, its not too far from China!翻译：你去过新加坡吗？对于成千上万的来自中国的游客来说，这个位于东南亚的小岛是一个既美丽又安全的度假地方

15、，一方面四分之三的人口是中国人，所以很多时间你可以简单地说普通话。另一方面，新加坡是一个说英语的国家，所以它也是练习你英语的好地方！你有没有尝试中国以外的中国食物呢？也许你担心你无法做到在旅途中发现任何好吃的东西。但在新加坡，你将会找到很多来自中国的食物：你不会有任何问题得到米饭，面条或饺子。新加坡也是尝试新食物的好地方。无论你喜欢印度菜，西餐还是日本料理。你会在新加坡找到这一切！大多数大城市都有动物园，但你曾经晚上去过动物园吗？新加坡有一个Night Safari。天黑时去动物园看起来可能很奇怪。然而，如果你在白天去看狮子，老虎或狐狸，他们可能会睡着了！很多动物只在夜间醒来，所以这是观看他们

16、的最佳时间。在夜间野生动物园中，你可以在一个比正常动物园更自然的环境中观看这些动物。关于新加坡更棒的事情是那里的温度几乎全年都一样。那是因为岛屿离赤道很近，所以无论你喜欢春天、夏天、秋天还是冬天，你都可以选择去。当然，新加坡离中国也不愿。知识点：1.thousands of 数以千记的；许许多多的 hundred n. 百 hundreds of 数以百的 thousand n. 千 thousands of成千上万的million n. 百万 millions of成百万的 【注】：(1)当hundred、thousand、million 前面有具体的数字时，用单数形式(2)当hundred

17、、thousand、million 后与of 连用时用复数形式，【口诀】：具体的不加s 也不加of，不具体的加s 也加of2.population是一个集合名词,单独作主语时谓语动词用单数，当population 前有分数或百分数修饰时,谓语动词用复数。3.该句中，fear后引导的宾语从句中是由when引导的时间状语从句，从句用一般现在时，主句用将来时；anything good，当形容词修饰不定代词时要放在不定代词之后，enough也有此用法。4.have problems doing sth“做某事有困难”，类似还有have troubles/difficulties doing sth。

18、5.whether常引导宾语从句，表示“是否”之意。常与or连用。引导让步状语从句，从句用一般现在时。if和whether的辨析： if和whether均可表示“是否”，一般情况下二者可以互换。但在下列条件下，只能用whether而不能用if： （1）if后不能直接接or not。 （2）whether可作介词的宾语。 （3）whether后可接不定式。 （4）whether可用于句首。（5）whether可引导主语从句、表语从句。6.It+/is/was+形容词+to do sth.7. 此句是由whenever引导的时间状语从句，可替换为no matter when。no matter w

19、hen 不能引导名词性从句（主语从句，宾语从句等），而whenever可以。单元测试卷 I. 单项选择。1How do you go to school every day，by bike or by bus? _I go to school on foot ABoth BEither CNone DNeither2_ of the students in our school have seen the film AThird quarters BThree quarter CA three quarter DThree quarters3Please be quietI have _ to

40、rip to Hainan为题，写一篇80词左右的短文。A wonderful trip to Hainan_答案与解析：. 单项选择。1D。由答语中“我步行去上学”可知既不是骑自行车，也不是乘公共汽车。表示“两者都不”用neither。故选D。2D。在表达分数时，分子用基数词，分母用序数词，如果分子大于一，分母用复数形式。“四分之三”应表示为three quarters，故选D。3C。形容词修饰不定代词时要后置，故排除A、B两项；一般情况下，something用于肯定句中，anything用于否定句或疑问句中，故选C。4A。因为陈述句中有否定词hardly，所以反意疑问部分用肯定形式。又因句

41、中有情态动词can，故选A。5C。当thousand前有具体数字修饰时，thousand必须用单数形式，故排除B项；当其表示概数时，用复数形式，并且后加of，即thousands of，意为“数以千计的，许许多多的”。故选C。6B。空格后的bird为可数名词单数；“such + aan + 形容词 + 可数名词单数”可与“so + 形容词 + aan + 可数名词单数”进行互换。故选B。7D。由句意“无论你何时有空，都可以来和我玩”知，whenever符合题意。8A。have problems(in) doing sth. 意为“做某事很费事”，为固定结构。9C。宾语从句用陈述语序，而A、B和

42、D三项都用了疑问语序，可排除，故选C。10B。see sb. do sth. “看见某人做某事”，强调全过程；see sb. doing sth.“看见某人正在做某事”，强调动作正在进行。由句中的“Look!”可知强调动作正在进行，故选B。11B。ever用于一般疑问句，而never用于否定句，表示“从未”的意思。12D。用现在完成时说明到目前为止的情况。havehas been to表示“去过某地(现已回来)”，havehas gone to表示“去了某地(正在去的路上或已经到了)”。由答语可知是“去过了”，故选D。13A。答语是“for+一段时间”，故用how long提问。14A。as

43、a tour guide意为“作为一名导游”。15A。speak English意为“说英语”；tell sb. sth. 意为“告诉某人某事”。II. 完形填空。1. B。look at表示“看”，指有意识地看；而see是“看见”，notice是“注意到”，它们都表示无意识的动作。2. C。根据前面的“he felt sorry for himself”，判断他很想要双鞋。3. D。从上下文可看出他妈妈深爱他，如有可能，她会为他买任何东西，anything是“任何东西”的意思，在此表示一种强调的语气。4. A。通过but一词，可知语气转折，little money为“几乎没有钱”，表示否定意

44、义。而a little则表示“少许，一点点”。5. A。根据“as he looked worried and his mother would notice”做出判断，为了不使他妈妈看出他忧虑的神情，他决定不要马上回家。6. C。当他发现这个少年没有脚时，他的感觉应该是惊奇，这或许是他第一次见到这种事，所以他的反应不应该是激动、高兴或感到有意思。7. D。look down表示“朝下看”，看脚时，应该往下看；look up表示“朝上看”；look through是“浏览”的意思；look out表示“注意”。8. A。此题考比较级的用法。much better表示“好得多”；虽然still和

45、even后面也可用比较级，但它们表示的意思不符合题意。9. C。than用于比较级时，其前、后的结构要一致；此题的than前是介词短语without shoes，因此than后要用 without feet与之搭配。10. B。“感到伤心”用feel sad 表示；“看起来伤心”用look sad；seem sad是“好像伤心”的意思；appear sad 则表示“表面上伤心”的意思。III. 阅读理解。A篇1. D。因为牛津大学是英国的著名大学。2. A。第一段最后一句讲“这使他们高兴”。“It”指代前一句讲的情况，即他们的儿子功课很好。3. C。根据第三段文意判断。4. B。第三段最后一句

46、讲“所有人都开始听她讲。”故A不对；她这样做只是想炫耀一下而已。C、D描述的意思都不确切。5. C。文章前面做了铺垫，讲Mrs. Turner 如何炫耀她儿子考上大学，结尾讲那个妇女说自己的儿子是教授不论真假，她是在阻止Mrs. Turner的炫耀。B篇6B。由第二段中的第一句“Last Saturday morning，Mr. Black took his wife and two little sons to the aquarium.”可知，Mr. Black一家有四口人，再加上售票员，因此故事中出现了5个人。故选B。7C。由第二段中的“The price is 20 dollars f

47、or each adult(成年人) or any kid older than five.”和“I think I must buy three tickets.”可知，他们买了三张票，每张票20美元，共60美元。8A。由第一段可知，他们去的是水族馆，可以看到海洋动物，故可以看到海豚。其他三种动物在水族馆里没有。故选A。9D。由最后一段中的“We should tell the truth to the people around us，especially to the kids”可推知，honesty意思是“诚实”，故选D。10D。由第二段中的“Yes，that sounds right

48、，but my kids will know the difference.”可推知，Mr. Black认为宁愿多花钱，也要诚实。故选D。IV. 书面表达。 Have you ever been to Hainan? Well，I have been thereLast weekend I had a wonderful trip to Hainan with my parentsWe went there by planeThe weather was warm. We visited many interesting places，such as Tianya Haijiao，which
