II.阅读理解

Children have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a referee (裁判) and rarely trouble to keep scores. They don’t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities cannot be directly compared. They also enjoy games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the picking-up of sides, or the determining of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself.

Grown-ups can hardly find children’s games exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid. He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught.

It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.

1. What is TRUE about children when they play games? A. They can stop playing any time they like.

B. They can test their personal abilities.

C. They usually need a referee.

D. They don’t need rules.

2. To become a leader in a game the child has to _____. A. play well

B. wait for his turn

C. be confident in himself D. be popular among his playmates

3. Why does a child like playing games?

A. Because he can be someone other than himself.

B. Because he can become popular among friends.

C. Because he finds he is always lucky in games.

D. Because he likes the place where he plays a game.

4. The writer believes that _____.

A. children should make better rules for their games B. children should invite grown-ups to play with them

C. children’s games can do them a lot of good

D. children play games without reasons

(含义是:________________.)

Michael has been ill.

(含义是:_________________)

现在完成时用来表示现在之前______或______的动作或状态,但其结果却和现在有______,也就是说,动作或状态发生在过去但它的影响现在还______. 2.现在完成时可以用来表示发生在过去某一时刻的,持续到现在的情况,常与for,since连用.

牛刀小试

Mary has been ill for three days. ______________________ I have lived here since 1998.__________________________ 3.现在完成时往往同表示不确定的过去时间状语连用,如already, yet, just, before, recently, lately等:

牛刀小试He has already obtained a scholarship. _________________________ ____________________________________.我最近都没怎么看到他. We have seen that film before.__________________________________ ____________________________________?你还没有找到失踪的儿童吗? 4.现在完成时常常与表示频度的时间状语连用,如ever, never等:

牛刀小试_________________________. 你曾经去过北京吗? I have never heard Bunny say anything against her.___________________________.

5.现在完成时还往往可以同包括现在时间在内的时间状语连用,如up to…, in the past few years, so far等

牛刀小试_________________________. 皮特到现在已经写了六张纸了. 1).The friendly relations and cooperation between our two countries have been enhanced in the past few years. ______________________________________. 2)_____________________________. 迄今为止,所有事情都成功了. 6.现在完成时表示现在之前业已完成的动作,虽然其效果或影响仍然存在但已不再继续,但是有

一些现在完成时的句子,在后面加上for+一段时间,则现在完成时的动作就表示延续性.

Thomas has studied Russian.(现在不再学俄语)

Thomas has studied Russian for three years. (=Thomas began to study Russian three years ago, and is still studying it now).

7. 现在完成时还可以用来表示过去的一个时间到现在这段时间内重复发生的动作.

We have had four texts this semester.

STEP2

※语法拓展

现在完成时的“完成用法”和“未完成用法

1.现在完成时的"完成用法" 现在完成时的“完成用法”指的是动作发生在过去某一时刻并已结束，但该动作对现在产生了影响，与现在情况具有因果关系。

He has turned off the light他已把灯关了(动作结束于过去，但说明的是现在的情况--灯现在不亮了。)

现在完成时“完成用法”的特点是动作不延续，因此，该时态只能与表示不定的过去

时间状语(如：already，yet，before，recently等)、频度时间状语(如：never，ever，once等)、包括现在时刻在内的时间状语(如：this morning ／

month ／year...，today等)连用。

Have you found your pen yet？你已找到你的钢笔了吗？

2.现在完成时的"未完成用法" 现在完成时的“未完成用法”指的是动作开始于过去某一时刻，一直延续到现在，或可能还要继续下去。

He has lived here since 1978. 从1978年以来，他一直住在这儿。

(动作起始于1978年，一直住到现在，可能还要继续住下去。)

I have been in the army for more than 5 years. 我在部队已经呆了五年多了

(动作开始于5年前，一直延续至今，有可能还要继续下去。)

此种用法的句中常需一个表示一段时间的状语(由since或for引导)，或表示与现在时刻相连的时间状语(如：up to now，so far)等。

I have heard nothing from him up to now. 到目前为止我没有他的任何消息

注意：A现在完成时的未完成用法只适用于延续性动词，不可用于终止性动词，

即瞬间完成或延续时间很短的动词。

如：come，go，arrive，leave，join，become，die等。

B现在完成时常见两种句型：

a主语＋have / has been＋for短语

b It is＋一段时间＋

since从句

He has been in the League for three years.或It is three years since he joined the League.

Cultural Corner& Task 阅读下面的文章，根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的词数要求）

When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness(宽恕)is possible—and it can be surprisingly helpful to your physical and mental health. Indeed, research has shown that people who forgive more energy, better appetite(胃口)and better sleep patterns. “People who forgive show less anger and more hopefulness,” says Dr. Fred eric Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help save on the wear and tear on our system and allow people to feel more energetic.”

___________, calm yourself first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure; a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love." Don't wait for an apology. “Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing.” says Dr. Luskin. “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way. So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time.’’ Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of the person who upset you. Mentally going over your hurt gives power to the person who brought you pain. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person’s perspective(视角). You may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance(无知), fear—even love. To gain perspective, you may want to write a letter to yourself from that person’s point of view.

1. What’s the best title of the passage? (within 10 words)

2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one? Forgiveness does good to you both physically and mentally.

3. P1ease fill in the blank with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence in the second paragraph.(within 10 words)

4. According to the writer，what is the right way to calm down after being hurt? (within 10 words)

5．Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.
