unit 5 travelling abroad using language课时作业.阅读理解apygmalion is a drama in which shaw has made sentiments one of the principle themes of discussion. the greek sculptor pygmalion carved a statue and fell in love with it. aphrodite (the goddess of love) turned the statue into a living woman named galatea, who then became pygmalions wife. the shavian pygmalion is henry higgins, a professor of phonetics, who picks up a flower girl, eliza doolittle, teaches her to speak as educated people do, and then successfully passes_her_off_as a duchess. but she is a human being and cannot be treated as a machine. in the course of all his experiments and exhibitions, the professor only thinks of his own skill success and failure, but never stops to consider how the girl feels. when the experiment is over, he has a profound sense of relief that he has achieved triumph and has won his bet. even now，the sentiment of the girl is of no account. the girl naturally protests against this dehumanized relationship between her and her teacher. she hurls the professors slippers at him when he wants them and then leaves his place. but evidently, she has begun to feel for the professor and wants also to be felt for. now the question is what is the nature of elizas feelings for the professor with whom she has lived in close association for so long? in the last act, the girl says she would not marry him even if he had proposed (求婚) to her. the professor, curiously ineffectual (无效的) to sexual emotions, does not love any girl because he finds them to be rivals (对手) to his own mother. he wonders, if eliza does not want to marry him, then what does she want from him? old mrs. higgins, who knows much about a woman says that it would have been better if he had thanked her and petted her and told her how wonderful she had been. then perhaps she would not have fought with him. every girl loves to be loved. eliza herself says that she loves freddy and he also loves her. professor higgins, however, remains as ever, an old bachelor. 语篇解读：萧伯纳的著名戏剧卖花女具有经久不衰的艺术魅力，描述的是语言学教授希金斯如何把一名卖花姑娘训练成英语发音被上流社会接受并认可的故事，从而抨击了当时英国腐朽保守的等级意识。1what does the underlined phrase “passes her off as” in paragraph 2 mean?

friends. now just before my first class of the day my eyelids were feeling heavier and heavier and my head was drifting down to my desk to make my textbook a pillow. a few minutes nap time before class couldnt hurt, i thought.boom! i lifted my head immediately and my eyes opened wider than saucers. i looked around with my heart beating quickly trying to find the cause of the noise. my young professor was looking back at me with a mischievous,_boyish smile on his face. he had intentionally dropped the pile of textbooks he was carrying onto his desk. “good morning！” he said, still smiling. “im glad to see everyone is awake. now lets get started.”for the next hour i wasnt sleepy at all. it wasnt from the shock of my professors textbook alarm clock either. instead, it was from the attractive discussion he led. with knowledge and good humor, he made the material come alive. his insights were full of both wisdom and loving kindness. and the enthusiasm and joy which he taught with were contagious (有感染力的). i left the classroom not only wide awake, but a little smarter and a little better as well.i learned something far more important than not sleeping in class that day too. i learned that if you are going to do something in this life, do it well, do it with joy, and make it an expression of your love. what a glorious place this world would be if all of us did our work joyously and well! what a beautiful world we could create if every doctor, teacher, musician, cook, waitress, poet, miner, farmer, and laborer made their work an expression of their love! dont sleepwalk through your life then. wake up! let your love fill your work and your soul. life is too short not to live it well.语篇解读：本文通过作者大学第一节课的经历告诉我们：无论从事什么职业，我们都应该带着热情和快乐去做好它。5what did the author

urging kids to work harder by offering them obvious encouragements. happy meals are at the low end of the scale. with the help of businesses, schools are also giving away cars, ipods, seats to basketball games, and in a growing number of cases cold, hard cash. the appeal of such programs is obvious, but the consequences of tying grades to goods are still uncertain. its been a common tradition in middleclass families to reward top grades with cash as a way to teach that success in school leads to success in life. but for many disadvantaged minority children, the longterm benefits of getting an education are not so clear, according to experts.no one knows for sure how well cash and other bigticket rewards work in education in the long run. but there are plenty of concerns that this kind of practice could have negative effects on kids. virginia shiller, a clinical psychologist, says that its worth experimenting with cash encouragements but that tying them to success on a test is not a worthwhile goal. “id rather see rewards based on effort and responsibility things that will lead to success in life，” she says.even if rewards dont lead to individual achievement on a test, they could have a meaningful effect in the school. charles mcvean, a businessman and philanthropist (慈善家), started a tutoring program which pays higherachieving students d|s10 an hour to tutor struggling classmates and divides them into teams. during the course of the year, students bond and compete. the team posting the highest math scores wins the top cash prize of d|s100. mcvean calls the combination of peer (同龄人) tutoring, competition, and cash encouragements a recipe for “nothing less than magic”for its part, the seminole county public schools system in florida plans to continue its report card encouragement program through the rest of the school year. the local mcdonald s restaurants help the poor district by paying the d|s1,600 cost of printing the report card. regina klaers, the district spokeswoman, says most parents dont seem bothered by the happy meals rewards. “there are many ways we try to urge students to do well, and sometimes its through the stomach, and sometimes its the probability of students winning a car，” she says. “one size doesnt fit all.”9according to the text, it is a common practice for schools to_.aoffer free meals to students with high scoresbtie students grades to material rewardsceducate students to form a business sensedcooperate with business to improve teaching解析：选b推理判断题。根据第一段第三句及其下一句中的“tying grades to goods”可推断出，将学生的成绩与物质奖励联系起来已成了学校的一个惯例。故选b。10according to the text, the longterm results of giving students cash as rewards in education are _.anegative boptimisticcuncertain ddisappointing解析：选c细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知，给学生现金作为奖励在教育中产生的长远结果还不确定。故选c。11the tutoring program run by charles mcvean _.ahires some excellent teachers to teach the struggling studentsbhas a meaningful effect
