Make the benefits most, reduce the drawbacks least

Hosting the Olympics successfully is, perhaps, the greatest glory for a city. However, before transforming the dream into reality, the benefits and drawbacks of hosting the Olympics should be considered carefully.

Hosting the Olympics surely would bring about much gain to a city. Boom of the local economy, more jobs, and the possibility of generating income all sound extremely attractive to the municipal government. At the same time, better infrastructure (基础设施), cleaner environment, enjoying the wonderful game with hundreds of sports elites (精英) and entertainment stars, and the opportunity of contacting people from all over the world also seem exciting to the citizens. Besides, the hosting will definitely promote the patriotic emotion and pride, as well as the moral behavior in local people. In most cases, hosting the Olympics is well supported by both the public and the central government.

But this is not the entire view of the pretty picture. If we look from another angle, the Olympic hosting might bring about some side-effects to a city.

First, the environmental impacts, including the increasing exhaust smoke of cars, more pressure on water resources, huge amount of wasted leaflets and other materials used for public activities, are most probably neglected. In order to broaden the streets, some trees may have to be cut. Near the construction site, the tiny dust may float in the air for a long time. Reduction of farmland may be caused by the need of setting up new sports centre or accommodation facilities. These environmental consequences can be especially serious in a resource-limited and thickly-populated city in a third-world country. Second, if talking about the economic benefit, it should not be forgotten that a quick increase may lead to bubble (泡沫) growth, which may easily crash. If not well managed and organized, the big event may not be so profitable, and the new facilities may be forever empty after the games. Yes, there have been cases that host cities ended up with enormous debts.

No one stops eating merely because too much food might hurt his stomach and

make him ill. Since we have bid for it, what we can do is to make the benefits most and reduce the drawbacks least.

本单元以世界性的体育盛会──Olympic Games 为话题，旨在通过本单元的教学，使学

生了解奥运会的起源、宗旨、比赛项目以及古现代奥运会的异同。学会用英语表达自己的兴

趣爱好以及如何向别人推荐某一种爱好，同时培养学生对体育运动的爱好。

2．教学目标

根据《新课程标准》关于总目标的具体描述，结合高一学生实际和教材内容，我们分语

言知识、语言技能、学习策略、情感态度、文化意识五个方面制定相应教学目标：

1）语言知识：

双基词汇：学习掌握一些有关奥运会的词汇,如：compete, competitor, medal, Greece,

Greek, athlete, stadium, gymnasium等。

掌握文中涉及的其他一些词汇，如： honest, host, magical, interview, admit, a set of, as

well as等。

语用功能：学习掌握一些用于讨论奥运会的结构句式，如：

When and where will the next Olympic Games be held?

I have come to your time...that in 2004…they are to be held in my hometown of Athens.

All countries can take part if their athletes reach the standard to be admitted to the games.

It is just as much a competition among countries to host the Olympics as to win an Olympic

medal.

表达自己的兴趣爱好以及如何向别人推荐某一种爱好的结构句式，如：

What are your hobbies?

How do you become good at them?

I think/don’t think that…

I agree/don’t agree that etc.

语法结构：学习掌握将来时态的被动结构的用法。如：

When and where will the next Olympic Games be held?

The 2008 Olympic Games will be held in China.

2）语言技能：

听：训练学生集中注意力、抓住疑问词线索、捕捉特定信息的能力；并熟悉interview

这种形式。

说：学生能尝试当演员，利用“信息差”进行相互采访，提高在真实语境中的英语交际

能力。

读：通过Scanning, skimming, careful reading, generalization, inference等阅读微技能训练，

获取关于奥运会的信息，处理信息，运用信息进行推理、判断的能力。

写：运用本单元所学，尝试写一篇有关“北京2008奥运会”的报道。

3）学习策略：学生在一定程度上形成自主学习，进行有效交际、信息处理，养成英语

思维习惯。

4）情感态度：学习奥运会的知识，培养学生热爱体育运动。学习更快，更高，更强的

奥运精神，培养学生团体合作、努力拼博、积极向上的精神。

5）文化意识：了解奥运会，培养全球意识，认识世界一体化以及国际合作的趋势；通

过对比古现代奥运会，加深对奥运会的了解。

3．教学重点和难点

1）引导学生发现、感悟将来时态的被动结构的语言规律，培养语感；

2）帮助学生按类别归纳整理，用有效的记忆词汇的方法来掌握与奥运会相关的词汇；

3）学生能够表达自己的兴趣爱好以及如何向别人推荐某一种爱好。

二、教学方法与教材处理

Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)

A

The final event in the Olympics is the marathon.It is also usually the most exciting.As the leader comes into the stadium to run the last few meters of the 42－kilometre race，the crowd rises to its feet to shout and cheer.The name of the race comes from a battle in Ancient Greece.According to the story，a soldier ran from the scene of the battle，Marathon，to Athens，to bring the news of a Greek victory against the Persians.He died just after arriving.

The marathon has been an Olympic event since the modern games started in 1896.At first the distance was 40 kilometers—the distance between Marathon and Athens.In 1908，however，at the London Olympics，it was changed.The King of England wanted the runners to leave from his castle in Windsor and arrive in a new stadium in central London.The distance was 26 miles—about 42 kilometers.In fact，the 1908 marathon ended dramatically(戏剧性地)．When the leader，an Italian，entered the stadium he turned the wrong way and fell onto the ground.Officials picked him up and helped him to the finishing line，just as the second runner，an American，entered the stadium.The Americans protested(抗议)and in the end the American runner was declared(宣布)the winner.Since then，there have been many more exciting marathons.

In fact，you don't have to wait for the Olympic Games to run or watch a marathon，as there are marathons in over sixty countries and hundreds of cities around the world today.One of the most famous marathons is in New York，and is watched by two million people around the streets and across the bridges of the city's five boroughs(纽约市的行政区)，and past New York's famous landmarks.But perhaps one of the most beautiful and extraordinary(最特别的)marathons ever is the Great Wall Marathon，which most competitors find is the toughest course to run.

The marathon is the final Olympic event because it is thought to be the

hardest.But experts believe that most people—even people who are not particularly good at sport—can run a marathon，if they train for it.

31．When the leader comes into the stadium，the crowd

________．

A．run to his or her feet happily

B．shout with excitement

C．carry him or her to the finishing line

D．sing and dance

32．Which is TRUE according to the passage?

A．The name of the race comes from a battle in Greece.

B．The soldier who ran from Marathon to Athens won a gold medal.

C．The Marathon events in the Games have the same length all the time.

D．From 1908，the Marathon events are of the same length.

33．Who ran to the finishing line first in 1908?

A．The American runner.

B．The leading runner.

C．The Greek winner.

D．The Italian soldier.

34．What's the main idea of the passage?

A．Marathon is the most important event.

B．Marathon is the most popular event.

C．Marathon is the hardest event.

D．Marathon is the final Olympic event.

When a child is told he is“uncool”，it can be very painful.He may say he doesn't care，and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose.But these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending it's not there.

Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful.If you say，“Why are you worried about what other children think about you？It doesn't matter！”，children know that it does matter.Instead，an active way may be best.You could say，“I'm going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school.”

If a boy is having trouble making friends，the teacher can help him.The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects.This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him.A teacher can also raise a child's popularity in the group by showing that he values that child.It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child，or let him be a partner with that child in activities，etc.

There are things that parents can do at home，too.Be friendly when your child brings others home to play.Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider delicious.When you plan trips，picnics，movies，and other shows，invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.

What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out.Then，if he has good qualities，he can start to build real friendship of his own.

A．care nothing about it

A couple from Miami, Bill and Simone Butler, spent sixty－six days in a life－raft(救生艇) in the seas of Central America after their boat sank.

Twenty－one days after they left Panama in their boat, Simony, they met some whales(鲸鱼)．“They started to hit the side of the boat，” said Bill, “and then suddenly we heard water.” Two minutes later, the boat was sinking.They jumped into the life－raft and watched the boat go under the water.

For twenty days they had tins of food, biscuits, and bottles of water.They also had a fishing－line and a machine to make salt water into drinking water—two things which saved their lives.They caught eight to ten fish a day and ate them raw(生的)．Then the line broke.“So we had no more fish until something very strange happened.Some sharks(鲨鱼) came to feed, and the fish under the raft were afraid and came to the surface.I caught them with my hands.”

About twenty ships passed them, but no one saw them.After fifty days at sea their life－raft was beginning to break up.Then suddenly it was all over.A fishing boat saw them and picked them up.They couldn't stand up.So the captain carried them onto his boat and took them to Costa Rica.Their two months at sea was over.

The Olympic flame is a symbol carried over from the ancient Olympics，where a flame

burned at the altar(祭坛)of Zeus(宙斯)throughout competition.It was finally reintroduced at the 1924 Amsterdam(阿姆斯特丹) Games，and again burned in 1932.

Carl Diem，chairman of the organizing committee for the 1936 Berlin Gamesthe flame be lit in Greece and transported to Berlin via a torch relay.The idea was adopted(采纳) and continued at every Olympic Games since 1952.

The flame is lit at the ancient site(场所) of Olympia by the natural rays of the sun reflected(反射) off a carved(雕刻) mirror.

Olympic motto

“Citius，altius，fortius”is a Latin phrase meaning“swifter，higher，stronger”，which Baron de Coubertin borrowed from Father Henri Dideon of Paris.Dideon was the headmaster of Arcueil College，and used the phrase to describe the athletic achievements(成就) of students at the school.He had previously been at the Albert Le Grand School，where the Latin words were carved in the stone above the main entrance.

Olympic oath

“In the name of all competitors，I promise that we shall take part in these Olympic Games，respecting and abiding(遵守) by the rules that govern them，in the true spirit of sportsmanship，for the glory(荣誉) of sport and the honor of our teams.”

Written by Baron de Coubertin，the oath is taken by an athlete from the host nation(主办国) while holding a corner of the Olympic flag.The athlete’s oath was first taken by Belgian fencer Victor Boin at the 1920 Antwerp Games.A judge from the host country also speaks the oath，with slightly different wording(措辞)．

Ⅲ.1.C [句意为：奥运会旗帜上的五环代表什么？stand for“代表，象征”，符合题意。stand out“显眼，突出”；stand up“站立，站起”；stand aside“站到一边”。]

2．B [第一空考查不定式短语在句中作目的状语；因Olympic Games与hold之间是被动关系，且由时间状语in 2004可知，第二空处应用一般过去时的被动语态。]

3．A [由答语可知此处问的是频率，应用how often，意为“多久一次”。]

4．B [分析句子结构可知，第一个空应填副词instead。instead of与in place of是介词短语，replace是动词。第二空处应用关系代词which或that引导定语从句，关系代词在从句中作主语。]

5．B [句意为：我们希腊各个城市之间曾经为了赢得荣誉而彼此竞争。run for“竞选”；compete“竞争”；complete“完成”；beat“打败”。]

6．B [句意为：别的国家不能参加，奴隶和妇女也不能参加！为了避免句子部分内容不必要的重复，常用“so＋be动词/助动词/情态动词＋主语”或“neither/nor＋be动词/助动词/情态动词＋主语”的倒装句式。其中第一个句式表示与前面所述的肯定情况相同，意为“??也一样”；第二个句式表示与前面所述的否定情况相同，意为“??也一样不??”。由句意知选B项。“so＋主语＋be动词/助动词/情态动词”表示“??的确如此”，表示对上文所说的话的赞同或附和。]

7．D [take part in“参加，参与”，其后不跟宾语时，不用介词in。enough应置于所修饰的形

容词之后。]

8．C [as well作“也”讲时，通常用于肯定句，一般放在句末，不用逗号和前面的句子隔开；also作“也”讲时，多用于肯定句的句中；either作“也”讲时，多用于否定句。as well as表示“和，也”，作连词用，用来连接两个相同的成分；也有“除了……之外(也)，与……一样好”之意。]

Ⅳ.1.B [细节理解题。由第一段最后一句可知，奥运圣火于1924年阿姆斯特丹奥运会上被重新引进，因此选B项。]

2．D [词义理解题。由“proposed”所在句的下一句可知Carl Diem的想法被采纳，由此推出该词应是“提议，建议”的含义，因此选D项。]

3．A [推理判断题。由第二段可知1936年Carl Diem提出传递圣火的主意被采纳，由此推出第一次火炬接力是在1936年柏林奥运会上进行的。]

4．D [细节理解题。由文章第二部分“Olympic motto”的第一句话可知，奥林匹克格言是从Father Henri Dideon of Paris那儿借鉴来的。]
