Unit 12 Fact and fantasy(2009· 北京 ) 请根据下面提示，写一篇短文，词数不少于 50 。________________________________________ [ 参考答案 ]What an interesting picture! A Western young man, sitting at a table, is ready to eat a bowl of noodles. He is holding two forks the same way as we Chinese hold chopsticks. He is trying so hard to pick up the noodles that he is sweating a lot. At first glance, I think it’s a bit funny, for we Chinese take for granted that chopsticks are the tools for eating noodles. The man in the picture is trying to copy us. Obviously he is doing it the hard way. Maybe using one fork will do a better job. In my opinion, we don’t need to copy others’ ways of thinking. Sometimes a simpler way of doing things may be a better way.Ⅰ. 重点单词1 ． ______(vi.) 踌躇；犹豫2 ． ______(n.) 努力； ( 体力 )劳动3 ． ______(n.) 现象；奇迹4 ． ______(adj.) 聪明的；杰出的；耀眼的5 ． ______(adj.) 温和的；温柔的；文雅的6 ． ______(adj.) 永久的；固定的[ 答案 ]1 ． hesitate 2.labour 3.phenomenon 4.brilliant5 ． gentle 6.permanentⅡ. 词汇拓展1 ． hesitate→______(n.) 踌躇，犹豫2 ． brilliant→______(n.) 光辉，显赫3 ． prisoner→______(n.)→监狱______(v.) 监禁4 ． collision→______(vi.) 碰撞；抵触5 ． apply→______(n.)→申请者______(n.) 应用；申请6 ． botany→______(adj.) 植物学的7 ． belief→______(v.)→相信，信任______(adj.) 可信的[ 答案 ]1 ． hesitation 2.brilliance 3.prison; imprison4 ． collide 5.applicant; application 6.botanical7 ． believe; believableⅢ. 重点短语1 ． begin ______ ……从开始，首先2 ． contrary ______ ……与相反3 ． burn ______ 烧尽，烧掉4 ． slow ______ 减缓 ( 速度等 )5 ． dream ______ ……梦想6 ． cut ______ 切碎；剪碎7 ． defend...______... …………保卫免于8 ． turn ______ 结果 ( 是 )9 ． ______ o...
