高中英语 unit 3 the world of colours and light单元小结教学案 牛津译林版选修8

Unit 3 The world of colours and light Last year I had a fantastic trip to Europe with my parents. In the city of Mlaga, Spain, which is the birthplace of Pablo Picasso, I was amazed to learn that he had an output of over 20, 000 pieces of art. He developed different styles of painting, including Cubism. In the Louvre Museum, Paris, which has over 6,000 European paintings, ranging from the 13th century to the 19th century, we saw the famous painted by the Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci.It is said that this masterpiece is so valuable that it is difficult to calculate what its price would be. Monet, a French painter, sought to show movement and the feelings of the moment through the use of colours, light and shadow. In Amsterdam, we visited the Van Gogh Museum. His early paintings used a style called Impressionism and later he created more abstract artwork. Sadly, he received little reward while he was alive. He only sold one painting before he died in 1890. But today, van Goghs paintings are worth upwards of millions of dollars each.,去年我和父母一起去了欧洲进行了一次奇妙的旅行。 在西班牙的马拉加，也就是巴勃罗毕加索的出生地， 我惊讶地得知，他有两万多件艺术作品。 毕加索创作了不同的艺术风格，包括立体派。在巴黎的卢浮宫，里面珍藏着欧洲画家从13世纪到19世纪创作的六千余件作品，我们看到了意大利画家列奥纳多达芬奇著名的油画蒙娜丽莎。据说这幅画如此珍贵，以至于很难估算它的价值。莫奈，是法国画家，探索用色彩、光线和阴影来表现运动和运动感。在阿姆斯特丹，我们参观了凡高博物馆。他早期的绘画作品是印象派，但后来创作了更为抽象的作品。令人难过的是，在凡高活着的时候，他所得的回报却微乎其微。在他1890年去世之前他只卖出去一幅画。但现在，凡高的每幅画都价值超过数百万美元。加餐练(一)完形阅读组合练.完形填空The moon had gone behind a cloud and there werent many stars in the sky.

She made important discoveries about genes and chromosomes (染色体)Barbara McClintock was born in 1902 in Hartford, Connecticut. Her family moved to the Brooklyn area of New York City in 1908. Barbara was an active child with interests in sports and music. She also developed an interest in science.She studied science at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. Barbara was among a small number of undergraduate students to receive training in genetics in 1921. Years later, she noted that few college students wanted to study genetics.Barbara McClintock decided to study botany, the scientific study of plants, at Cornell University. She completed her undergraduate studies in 1923. McClintock decided to continue her education at Cornell. She completed the masters degree in 1925. Two years later, she finished all her requirements for the doctorate degree.McClintock stayed at Cornell after she completed her education. She taught students botany. The 1930s was not a good time to be a young scientist in the United States. The country was in the middle of the great economic depression. Millions of Americans were unemployed. Male scientists were offered jobs. But female geneticists were not much in demand.An old friend from Cornell, Marcus Rhoades, invited McClintock to spend the summer of 1941 working at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. It is a research center on Long Island, near New York City. McClintock started a temporary job with the genetics department. A short time later, she accepted a perpetual position in the laboratory and got continual incomes. This gave her the freedom to continue her research without repeatedly asking for financial aid.By the 1970s, her discoveries had had an effect on everything from genetic engineering to cancer research. McClintock won the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1983 for her discovery of the ability of genes to change positions on chromosomes. She was the first American woman to win an unshared Nobel Prize.语篇解读：本文主要讲述了著名女科学家芭芭拉麦克林托克的经历以及她在基因和染色体研究方面取得的重大成就。1Why was McClintock awarded a Nobel Prize?ABecause she received a degree in genes and chromosomes.BBecause she contributed to the development of genetic engineering and cancer research.CBecause she made important discoveries about genes and chromosomes.DBecause she was the first American woman that studied genes and chromosomes.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第一段的第二句和最后一段的第二句可知，芭芭拉麦克林托克在基因与染色体方面的研究发现让她获得了诺贝尔奖。故选C。2When did McClintock get a doctorate degree?AIn 1921. BIn 1923.CIn 1925. DIn 1927.解析：选D推理判断题。根据第四段的最后两句可知，芭芭拉麦克林托克在1925年取得了硕士学位，两年之后，她取得了博士学位。故可推知，芭芭拉麦克林托克在1927年取得了博士学位。3In the middle of the great economic depression in the US, _.Ayoung female scientists might have trouble finding a jobBmale scientists were in great demandCfemale geneticists were not in demand at allDmale scientists were out of work解析：选A推理判断题。根据第五段最后两句可知，男科学家能找到工作，但是女性遗传学家的需求量不大。由此可推知，年轻的女科学家在经济大萧条时期找工作可能会面临困难。故选A。4What does the underlined word “perpetual” mean?APermanent. BDifficult.CUseful. DComplex.解析：选A词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的“got continual incomes”以及“This gave her the freedom to continue her research without repeatedly asking for financial aid.”可知，这份工作可以让她得到持续的收入，并且能让她继续她的研究，而不必不断地去请求经济上的帮助，由此可推断，这个工作是“永久的”。故选A。加餐练(二)第卷规范增分练.语法填空Chengdu has dozens of new millionaires, Asias biggest building, and fancy new hotels. But for tourists like me, pandas are its top _1_ (attract)So it was a great honour to be invited backstage at the notforprofit Panda Base, where ticket money helps pay for research. I _2_ (allow) to get up close to these cute animals at the 600acre centre. From tomorrow, I will be their UK ambassador. The title will be _3_ (official) given to me at a ceremony in London. But my connection with pandas goes back _4_ my days on a TV show in the mid1980s, _5_ I was the first Western TV reporter _6_ (permit) to film a special unit caring for pandas rescued from starvation in the wild. My ambassadorial duties will include _7_ (introduce) British visitors to the 120plus pandas at Chengdu and others at a research centre in the misty mountains of Bifengxia.On my recent visit, I held a lively threemonthold twin that had been rejected by _8_ (it) mother. The nursery team switches him every few _9_ (day) with his sister so that while one is being bottlefed, _10_ other is with mum she never suspects.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。成都涌现出很多百万富翁、亚洲最大的建筑以及豪华酒店，但这对于作者这样的游客来说，熊猫才是那里的魅力所在。接下来讲述了作者的成都之旅及其与大熊猫之间的故事。1attraction形容词top修饰空格处的名词，attract的名词形式是attraction，意思是“吸引人之物”。2was allowedI与allow是被动关系，故用被动语态；又因上一句主句用过去时，可确定此句也用过去时。故填was allowed。3officially空格处修饰过去分词given，故用副词修饰。official的副词形式是officially(官方地)。4togo back to“追溯到”，是固定搭配。5when分析句子结构可知，空格处所在的句子是定语从句。定语从句修饰前面的“the mid1980s”，且从句缺少时间状语，故用when引导该定语从句。6permittedreporter与permit是被动关系，故用过去分词表被动。过去分词短语permitted to .作后置定语，修饰reporter。7introducing此处用动名词作include的宾语。8itsmother是名词，故此处填it的形容词性物主代词its。9days“every few复数名词”意思是“每隔”。every few days“每隔几天”。10theone . the other .“一个另一个”。.短文改错Smoking is widespread phenomenon even among teenage students.
