Unit 5 Meeting your ancestors一、閱讀理解。Persuasion is to convince someone to agree with you, just like art which also calls for special techniques to acplish. According to the ancient Greeks, there are three basic tools of persuasion: ethos, pathos and logos.Ethos is a speakers way of convincing the audience that he is trustworthy, honest and reliable. One mon way a speaker can develop ethos is by explaining how much experience or education he has in the field. After all, youre more likely to listen to advice about how to take care of your teeth from a dentist than a fireman.Pathos is a speakers way of connecting with an audiences emotions. For example, a politician who is trying to convince an audience to vote for him might say that he alone can save the country from a terrible war. These words are intended to fill the audience with fear, thus making them want to vote for him. Similarly, an animal charity might show an audience pictures of injured dogs and cats to make the viewers feel pity, so they will be more likely to donate money.Logos is the use of facts, statistics or other evidence to support your argument. An audience will believe you if you have convincing data to back up your claims. Presenting this evidence is much more persuasive than simply saying “believe me”.Although ethos, pathos and logos all have their strengths, they are often most effective when used together. So, the next time you listen to a speech, watch a mercial or listen to a friend try to convince you to lend him some money, be on the lookout for these ancient Greek tools of persuasion.1.What is the purpose of persuasion?A.

Strength of Persuasion【文章大意】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了源自于古希臘且一直沿用至今的說服他人的藝術(shù)，其中包括ethos、pathos、logos三種方式以及用這三種方式說服他人在各個(gè)領(lǐng)域應(yīng)用的可能性。1.A 【解析】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第一句話“Persuasion is to convince someone to agree with you, just like art which also calls for special techniques to acplish.”可知，說服是為了建議人們支持你。故選A。3.C 【解析】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第二句“For example, a politician who is trying to convince an audience to vote for him might say that he alone can save the country from aterrible war.”和最后一句“Similarly, an animal charity might show an audience pictures of injured dogs and cats to make the viewers feel pity, so they will be more likely to donate money.”可知，政治家可能會(huì)說他會(huì)獨(dú)自一人從可拍的戰(zhàn)爭中挽救一個(gè)國家為了說服觀眾為他投票，動(dòng)物慈善機(jī)構(gòu)向觀眾展示受傷的貓或者狗的圖片是為了讓觀眾感到可憐，更可能捐款。因此可知，政治家和慈善機(jī)構(gòu)的共同之處是他們都想讓聽眾支持他們。故選C。4.B 【解析】標(biāo)題判斷題。縱觀全文可知，文章主要介紹了說服人的藝術(shù)，包括ethos、pathos、logos三中不同的方式，以及這三種方式在各個(gè)領(lǐng)域應(yīng)用的可能性。因此推斷B項(xiàng)“說服的三種基本方式”為最佳標(biāo)題，概況了文章中心主旨。故選B。二、單句語法填空。1They _(interrupt) by a sudden and urgent knock at the door.答案：were interrupted表示過去發(fā)生的動(dòng)作，且主語they與interrupt之間為被動(dòng)關(guān)系，故應(yīng)用一般過去時(shí)的被動(dòng)語態(tài)，填were interrupted。2We have no alternative but _(sell) our house to pay the debt.答案：to sellhave no alternative but to do . “除之外別無選擇，只能做”。3It is generally _(assume) that stress is caused by too much work.答案：assumedIt is assumed that . “普遍認(rèn)為”。4We should bear in mind that teamwork is of great _ (significant) to both our society and ourselves.答案：significanceof great significancevery significant “意義重大/非常重要”。5Once _(arrest), he was likely to betray everything to the police.答案：arrestedarrest與其邏輯主語he之間為被動(dòng)關(guān)系，故用過去分詞在句中作狀語。6If only I _ (look) ahead a few days ago! Then I wouldnt have been feeling so worried now.答案：had looked由語境和句子結(jié)構(gòu)可判斷if only后應(yīng)用虛擬語氣；由時(shí)間狀語a few days ago 可知表示與過去事實(shí)相反，故應(yīng)填had looked。look ahead “向前看；為將來打算”。7This is a historic building _(date) back to the 17th century.答案：datingdate back todate from表示“追溯到”，無進(jìn)行時(shí)，無被動(dòng)語態(tài)，句中已有謂語動(dòng)詞is，且building和date back to存在邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系，故應(yīng)填現(xiàn)在分詞dating作后置定語。8I am fed up _this weather; its time we had some sunshine.答案：withbe fed up with “受夠了；厭煩”。9Sometimes we went ahead and did it, regardless _the consequences.答案：ofregardless of “不管；不顧”。10While working out the problem, you should pay more attention to the _(accurate)答案：accuracy由空格前的冠詞the可知，此處填名詞形式。三、完形填空。It impressed me a lot.I never thought

Factories must clean ou waste water before it thrown away. We cant throw waste things on the ground. We can go to work by bus an with our friends in same car. Everybody must help to fight pollution.第一處：are改為is?？疾橹髦^一致。主語one of the biggest problems是單數(shù)，謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。第二處：killed改為kills?？疾閯?dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)。由and和pollutes可知，應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)態(tài)，因此用kills。第三處：to去掉?？疾榉侵^語動(dòng)詞。make作使役動(dòng)詞時(shí)，后接省略to的不定式作賓補(bǔ)。第四處：easy改為easily。考查副詞。副詞修飾系動(dòng)詞bee。第五處：what改為which?？疾槎ㄕZ從句。這是一個(gè)非限制性定語從句，從句缺主語，which指代前面的air pollution。第六處：thing改為things?？疾槊~。a lot of在這里修飾可數(shù)名詞，故用thing的復(fù)數(shù)形式。第七處：our改為their/the?？疾榇~。本句Factories must clean.中主語的是第三人稱，所以water也應(yīng)改被their修飾。同時(shí)，the waste water也可以指工廠的廢水。第八處：thrown前加is。考查被動(dòng)語態(tài)。廢水與排放是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，故用被動(dòng)詞態(tài)。第九處：and改為or?？疾檫B詞。本句講的是我們上班可以選用兩種方式中的一種，所以用or表選擇關(guān)系，而and表示兩者都使用，不合理。第十處：a改為the。考查冠詞。同一輛車，用the same car。
