You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?

Jane Addams (1860～1935)

Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.

Rachel Carson (1907～1964)

If it weren't for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world's lakes and oceans.

Sandra Day O'Connor (1930～present)

When Sandra Day O'Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator(参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U．S. Supreme Court. O'Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.

Rosa Parks (1913～2005)

On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off (开始进行) the civil－rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in，” said Parks.

语篇导读本文为议论文。学习一门第二语言会为孩子的智力发展提供养分，使他们的职业前景更加光明。然而，在美国会说双语的孩子却很少。

1．解析C根据第一段第三句可知，在美国会说双语的人占少数，由此可知，上下句之间是转折关系，故选C项。

2．解析C根据空后一句可知，多数人只会说一种语言，因此会说两种及多种语言的人占少数。minimum最小；maximum最大；minority少数；majority多数，故选C项。

3．解析A根据语境可知，说两种及多种语言的人很少，因此，这就导致了一小部分人要求学两种或多种语言。claim主张，要求；pretend假装；promise承诺；refuse拒绝，故选A项。

4．解析D根据空后的a marker of difference here可知，会说除英语以外的语言是与众不同的标志。better than胜过；less than少于；later than晚于；other than除……以外，故选D项。

5．解析B由于会说第二语言会使人像个异类，所以当人们评论会说阿拉伯语的Umar时，他感觉很尴尬。根据下文母亲的回答也可推知答案。excited兴奋的；embarrassed 尴尬的；disappointed失望的；appreciated欣赏的，感激的，故选B项。

6．解析B根据下文中的But和not helping可知，在美国，孩子通常都会说两种语言，只是帮助不大。common常见的，共同的；unusual不寻常的；unique独一无二的；general 一般的，总体的，故选B项。

10．解析C根据上文可知，会说两种语言的人比只会说一种语言的人更具优势。have an advantage over与……相比有优势，故选C项。

11．解析D根据上文可知，与只会说一种语言的孩子相比，会说两种语言的孩子更具优势，而这取决于他们每种语言能说多少。determine决定，确定，不与on搭配使用；focus on集中于；comment on对……加以评论；depend on依靠，取决于，故选D项。

12．解析B根据下文中的连词or可知，此处应用whether；whether…or…是……还是……，为固定搭配，故选B项。

13．解析C句意：许多研究表明，说多种语言的孩子有时候比只学一种语言的孩子学一种语言更加缓慢，但是在其他学科中，最后他们还是会和只学一种语言的学生做得一样好，而且通常更好。reject拒绝；release释放；reveal揭示；remind提醒，故选C项。

语篇导读本文为说明文，介绍了我国网球运动员李娜将正式加入国际网球名人堂的情况以及李娜的相关信息。

1．Amazingly解析考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，空处作状语修饰整个句子，故应用副词形式Amazingly。

2．to receive解析考查非谓语动词。分析可知，空处应填非谓语动词；Asian player 被序数词the first修饰，故用动词不定式作后置定语。

3．was announced解析考查时态、语态和主谓一致。根据last month可知，此处应用一般过去时；空处所在句为非限制性定语从句，which在从句中作主语，和动词announce 之间为动宾关系，故用被动语态；which指代前面整个句子的内容，故谓语动词用单数。

4．rising解析考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处和winning…并列，作介词after的宾语，故用rise的动名词形式rising。

5．where解析考查引导词。分析该句结构并根据句意可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，且在从句中作状语，先行词为the 2011 French Open，表示地点，故用where引导。

6．opponents解析考查名词的数。opponent为可数名词，根据该句中的four top－10可知，此处应用复数形式。

7．her解析考查代词。空处修饰名词credit，表示所属关系，故用形容词性物主代

7

人教版高中英语必修四

词her；to one's credit使值得赞扬；使受尊重。

8．personality解析考查词性转换和名词的数。形容词一般作定语修饰名词，空前为形容词engaging，故空处用名词形式；personality表示“气质；魅力”时为不可数名词，故填personality。

9．a解析考查冠词。此处表示泛指，且statement以辅音音素开头，故用不定冠词a。

10．on解析考查介词。表示在具体的某一天用介词on。
