Photographer Teresa Berg replaces a Rottweiler's collar with a pink scarf. She picks a string of pearls to complement a dachshund's coat. She is taking glamour shots of shelter dogs, hoping her spiffed-up subjects will be adopted more quickly. "Most photos show dogs in cages, looking dirty and mangy," says Berg. "I consider my work like an antismoking campaign. We have to make adopting cool." Her father wouldn't allow the dog of her own as a kid. He did, however, show her how to use a camera. Together, they took pictures and developed them at his office. Living in Dallas at 24, Berg found her perfect roommate on the street: a Border Collie-Shetland sheepdog mix she named Gypsy. Berg always has a soft sport for the ones that don't have anyone to love. For years, she worked as a real estate agent, but she quit in 2006 to launch a photography business. Searching the Internet for a dog to adopt as a companion for Max, her Pomeranian, she was instantly put off by the photos online, "They had dirty laundry, dirty dishes, and empty pizza boxes in the background," she says. Berg finally found Flash, a 12 years old long-haired dachshund who was a Dallas rescue dog. She went to pick him up and ended up volunteering to take pictures of all the rescued dogs there for free. As more dogs went to the program, she took their pictures too. In the following year, after the photos went up on the website of the Dallas-Fort Worth Dachshund Rescue, the group's director noticed that adoptions had doubled compared with last year. She attributed this to the professional photos. "When dogs are adopted that quickly, it makes room for others off the streets," Berg says. Over the years, Berg has developed some tricks to snap flattering pictures: position dogs so that light falls on their faces, and shoot at eye level. In 2011, hoping to inspire more photographers, Berg posted video seminars on focusonrescue.com. About 75 people per month now watch the offer tips for taking quality pet photos. She's gratified to see the recent wave of well-shot dog photography on shelter websites and social-media sites. In the past couple of years, Berg has added two dogs to the Dallas home she shares with Flash and her husband: a dachshund named Jasper and a Pomeranian named Maggie. "I want to take all the shelter dogs home; that's the hard part," Berg says. "I have a particular affinity for dogs with gray muzzles."
21. Why did Berg, the photographer, put scarf and pearls on shelter dogs?
A.Because she enjoyed taking fancy pictures of dogs.
B.Because she was a faithful antismoking campaigner.
C.Because she wanted to make their adoption quick and enjoyable.
D.Because she felt relieved to make them look attractive and stylish.
A B C D
C
[解析] A项为混淆选项,文中没有明确指出Berg喜欢给狗拍新奇的照片。文中没有提到Berg是禁烟运动倡导者,第一段第五句只是说“I consider my work like an antismoking campaign”,所以排除B项。D项说Berg会因为使狗看起来有吸引力和时尚感而感到释然,该选项未在文中涉及。第一段第三句“hoping her spiffed-up subjects will be adopted more quickly”即Berg希望她把狗打扮的整洁漂亮的行为可以被实施的更快更好,与C项所表达的意思一致,故选C。
22. Which of the following best describes the effect produced by Berg's efforts?
A.They have spared more rooms for shelter dogs to live in.
B.They have gained her more professional fame as a photographer.
C.They have enabled her to adopt one more dog from Dallas rescue group.
D.They have made online adoptions increase twice as much as last year.
A B C D
D
[解析] A项说他们有多余的房间给在避难所的狗住,此选项文中未涉及。文中未提到Berg作为一个摄影师获得了更专业的声誉,排除B项。文中未提及是从Dallas的营救组收养狗,排除C项。第五段倒数第三句“...the group's director noticed that adoptions had doubled compared with last year.”可知,收养数量与去年相比翻了一番,与D项收养数量是去年的两倍意思一致,故选D。
23. What does the underlined word "she" in PARGRAPH 5 refer to?
A.Teresa Berg, the photographer.
B.Flash, a 12 years old long-haired dachshund.
C.Director of Dallas-fort Worth Dachshund Rescue.
D.A volunteer photographer in Dallas-Fort Worth Dachshund Rescue.
British universities can be depressing. The teachers complain about their pay and students worry they will end up frying burgers or jobless. Perhaps they should try visiting McDonald's University in London's East Finchley. Students are often "rough and ready", with poor qualifications and low self-esteem. But ambition-igniting murals display the ladder of opportunity that leads from the grill to the corner office (McDonald's chief executives have always started at the bottom). A map of the world shows the seven counterpart universities. Cabinets display trophies such as the Sunday Times award for being one of Britain's best 25 employers. McDonald is one of Britain's biggest trainers. It gets about 1 million applicants, accepting only one in 15, and spends £40 million ($61 million)a year on training. The Finchley campus, opened by Margaret Thatcher, then the local MP, in 1989, is one of the biggest training centres in Europe—many of the classrooms are equipped with booths for interpreters. It is part of a bigger system. An employee's web-portal, our lounge, provides training as well as details about that day's shifts, and allows employees to compete against each other in work-related video games. The focus is on practicalities. A retired policeman conducts a fast-paced class on conflict management. He shows a video of a woman driven madly by the fact that you cannot get chicken McNuggets at breakfast time. He asks the class if they have ever had a difficult customer, and every hand goes up. Students are then urged to share their advice. Self-esteem and self-management are on the syllabus, too. Steven Covey's "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" is a popular test. A year-long apprenticeship program emphasizing English and maths leads to a nationally recognized qualification. Mcdonald's has paid for almost 100 people to get degrees from Manchester Metropolitan university. The company professes to be unfazed by the fact that many alumni will end up working elsewhere. It needs to train people who might be managing a business with a £5 million turnover by their mid-20s. It also needs to satisfy the company's appetite for senior managers, one of whom will eventually control the entire global McDonald's empire.
26. For which of the following reasons did the writer suggest that people visit McDonald's university?
A.Both the teachers and students there are depressed.
B.The school won a big award from the Sunday Times.
C.The school did extremely well in motivating its students.
D.The students there had poor qualifications and low self-esteem.
A B C D
C
[解析] A项,老师和学生都是沮丧的,与原文意思不符。B项,这个学校在《星期日泰晤士报》赢了大奖,但这不是作者建议参观麦当劳大学的直接原因。D项,学校的学生资历平庸、缺乏自尊,文中虽有提及,但也不是作者建议参观的原因。C项,学校在鼓励学生方面做得很好。文中第一段第四、五句“Students are often 'rough and ready', with poor qualifications and low serf-esteem. But ambition-igniting murals display the ladder of opportunity that leads from the grill to the corner office (McDonald's chief executives have always started at the bottom)”指出麦当劳大学招收的学生也经常“马马虎虎”,而且资历平庸、缺乏自尊,但学校里的壁画张贴着从烤架操作工到办公室高管之间一级级的跃升机会(麦当劳的主管往往都是从基层一点点干起的),让人燃起勃勃雄心,这说明作者建议参观麦当劳大学的原因是学校在鼓励学生方面做得很好。
27. What does the underlined word "one" in PARGRAPH 2 refer to?
A.trainer
B.applicant
C.employee
D.employer
A B C D
B
[解析] 根据第二段第三句话“It gets about 1 million applicants one in 15, and spends £40 million ($61 million) a year on training”可知,每年麦当劳会收到100万份左右的求职申请,仅录取其中的十五分之一作为雇员,并出资4000万英镑(6100万美元)用于培训。根据语境,故选B。
28. For what purpose did the school ask a retired policeman to offer a class?
A.To teach the students how to manage conflicts.
B.To urge the students how to deal with customers.
C.To share his personal experience with the students.
D.To urge the students to share ideas with one another.
A B C D
B
[解析] 根据第三段第一句“The focus is on practicalities”可知,培训的重点在于实用性。A项为教导学生如何管理冲突,B项为督促学生如何应对客户,C项为与学生分享自己的亲身经历,D项为督促学生分享彼此的想法。故选B。
29. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "unfazed" in the last PARAGRAPH?
A.undisturbed
B.infuriated
C.unconcerned
D.frustrated
A B C D
A
[解析] 最后一段第一句“The company professes to be unfazed by the fact that many alumni will end up working else where”即许多学员在毕业后并不任职于麦当劳,而这家快餐业巨头宣称并不为此感到烦恼。undisturbed“坦然的”,infuriated“愤怒的”,unconcerned“漠不关心的”,frustrated“沮丧的”。根据文中意思,故选A。
30. What make McDonald's university distinguishable from other British universities?
A.The degree it offers to all of its graduates.

C.The managerial positions it provides for its students.
D.The facilities and equipment it provides for its students.
1. 简述课文教学“导入”活动的目的和注意事项并以“talking about likes and dislikes”为例,用英文写出两句相应课堂导入语。
(1)导入的目的:①通过有趣的内容进行导入,能够吸引学生的注意力,让学生从课下休闲或者疲倦的精神状态中转移过来;②导入相当于给学生提供一个良好的英语学习环境,锻炼学生用英语思维的能力;③有利于老师自然而然地引出本节课的内容。 (2)导入的注意事项:①导入时间不宜过长,45分钟的课堂,导入时间5分钟左右即可;②导入内容尽量与本课所教授的内容相关联,以便更好、更自然地过渡到本节的学习中来;③导入内容要新颖,要有创新,否则达不到导入的效果。 (3)likes and dislikes课堂导入语: T: Hello, everyone. Let's begin our class. First, look at the pictures in my hands. Which one do you like best? And which one do you dislike? (Students give their answers.) T: Thanks for your answers. As we all know, everyone has his / her likes and dislikes. Today we will talk about your like and dislike, and you can express your opinions freely.
三、教学情境分析题 根据题目要求完成下列任务,用中文作答。 下面是一节复习课中师生之间的对话片段: Teacher: What is he doing? Student: He watching TV. Teacher: He watching TV? Student: No, He is watching TV. 根据所给材料从下列三个方面作答:
①提前矫正 教师在准备某知识点教学时,可预先估计学生可能出现的问题,并有针对性地采取提前矫正措施。如湖南人读[l][n]这两个因素时常易混淆,把line读成nine,把Nice to meet you!读成Lice to meet you!等。教师在进行这几个因素教学时,可以利用英汉两种语言的联系,把汉语发音迁移到英语中说明[l]不带鼻音,而[n]是鼻音但口型不同。 ②暂缓对待 由于难点而形成的错误,为避免口舌费尽而把学生搞得更糊涂,一般来说,教师则以“无意”纠正(于无意中见有意)的方式进行纠正或暂缓讲解。如,学生学习“I'm coming now!”这个句子,然而该句子的形式与进行时结构完全相同。这时若讲解它们的差异,其结果要么导致学生死记,要么使学生茫然,不如看似“无意”地用汉语提示一下,接着口头操练“他就来”“我们就来”之类的句子更为有效。 ③延时矫正 当教学过程进行得十分顺利却发现问题时,如及时矫正,不仅破坏了课堂教学气氛,也影响了学生情绪。这时我们就冷处理,等到这个教学环节结束后,或在以后的学习中遇到与这个问题有关的知识点时再进行矫正,并结合新知识进行强化训练。如学生学习英语动词第三人称单数时,对词尾变化不习惯,学生可以照书本读出正确的句子:She likes cooking but she doesn't like doing housework.但学生把My sister likes cooking.说成My sister like cooking.教师在结束这一教学环节后指出英语动词在句子中随人称、性、数和时态变化,要学生特别予以注意,并要学生复述:My brother is a pupil. He is nine. His name is Jim. He goes to school from Monday to Friday. He does not go to school on Sunday. He likes eating bread and he likes English very much. He does his homework every day.熟练这些句子后用Tom,Li Lei代替my brother复述。在强化训练中开展男生与女生、小组与小组竞赛,看谁说的类似的句子多,谁说得准确、流利、地道。这样的活动会使学生兴趣盎然,劲头十足。通过多次反复矫正,学生会熟练地掌握这个知识点。
四、教学设计题 根据提供的信息和语言素材设计一节课的教学方案,用英文作答。
1. 设计任务:阅读下面信息,设计一节英语听说课教学方案,无固定格式,但须含以下要点: ● teaching contents ● teaching objectives ● key and difficult points ● major steps and time allocation ● activities and justifications 教学时间:45分钟 学生概况:某城镇普通中学八年级(初二)学生,班级人数40人,多数学生已达到《义务教育英语课程标准(2011年版)》三级水平。学生课堂参与积极性一般。 语言素材: Grace: What did you do in class day, Sarah? Sarah: We had a discussion about TV shows. My classmates like game shows and sports shows. Grace: Oh, I can't stand them. I love soap operas. I like to follow the story and see what happens next. Sarah: Well, I don't mind soap operas, but my favorite TV shows are the news and talk shows. Grace: They're boring. Sarah: Well, they may not be very exciting but you can expect to learn a lot from them. I hope to be a TV reporter one day.
[参考设计] Teaching Contents: A dialogue is about different preferences for TV shows. Teaching Objectives: (1) Knowledge objective Students can learn some new words about TV shows and know how to express one's preference. (2) Ability objective Students' ability of listening and speaking will be well developed. (3) Emotional objective Students can broaden their horizon of TV shows by talking with each other and giving some reasons to explain their interests and develop their interests in English learning. Teaching Key Point: Master some words and phrases about TV shows such as soap opera, game shows, sports shows, news and talk shows. Teaching Difficult Point: How to communicate with others correctly and freely, and how to get the key information after listening. Teaching Procedures: Step 1 Leading-in (5 minutes) Show some footage of TV shows to the students, and ask them the types of the TV shows and ask them to talk about which type they like and explain the reasons. (Justification: This step can attract students' attention and provide them with English learning surroundings.) Step 2 Presentation and practice (20 minutes) Firstly, let them listen to the tape recorder and summarize the main idea. Then the teacher asks several students to summarize the main idea of the material. Secondly, listen to the tape again. At this time, the students should do some exercises, and answer some specifie questions. Thirdly, ask them to listen to the tape for one more time to check whether they can get the right answers. After the listening, ask several students to share their answers with the whole class and then provide the answers on the power point. Then give some key words and let the students repeat the dialogue by using their own words. (Justification: At this step, not only their ability of listening and speaking but also their skills of listening for specific information will be well developed.) Step 3 Consolidation (15 minutes) Divide the whole class into five groups, ask them to listen to an interesting story and let them retell the story. Which group can do the best will be given some gifts after the class. (Justification: This step can help the students enjoy the study, and develop their speaking skills.) Step 4 Summary and Homework (5 minutes) Summary: Do the summary together with the students. Let them know what we have learned in this lesson. Homework: Ask them to introduce one of their favorite TV shows, TV programs, or movies to their partners. (Justification: Summary can help students to consolidate the knowledge what they have learnt in the class and homework can help them to communicate with other students.) Blackboard Design: TV shows soap opera follow the story game shows sports shows news boring / learn a lot talk shows
