   The most ambitious map in history is taking shape before our eyes. And scientists are heading for the edge. It may be the strangest map you’ll ever see. And it’s bigger than you can believe. It’s a map of the entire universe. They’re even building pictures of the invisible. This is a map of everything we know. And it’s getting bigger every day. The universe is so big, we may never find the edge. Mapping the universe is a job for pioneers. Nick wants to put our entire galaxy on the map. He's on a single-handed mission, to photograph the Milky Way.

情景介绍

角色：  你是校报记者Mary。

任务： （1）采访Mr. Brown的工作生活；

       （2）根据采访内容回答校报编辑的提问。

W: Mr Brown, do you find it difficult to wake up in the morning?

M: No, not really. I seem to wake up earlier and earlier. I usually get up at about 6:30, and I do about an hour’s work before the newspaper arrives.

W: What time do you have breakfast?

M: Oh, about eight, because I can watch the 8 o’clock news at the same time. My wife and I always have breakfast together, but the children are always late.

W: What time do they start school?

M: Nine fifteen. I drive them to school on my way to work. I’m often in a great hurry because one of them always forgets something.

W: When is your lunch hour?

M: Around one o’clock, but sometimes I have a light lunch at my desk and work right through.

W: 你什么时候下班？

M: Well, that depends, really. I generally finish at about six o’clock, but I go home a bit later. It’s useless going home earlier because of the heavy traffic. After I get home, I usually help my wife get supper ready.

W: 你们晚上有哪些活动？

M: The kids watch some of the children’s programmes. And we sometimes watch sports programmes. Normally after supper, we have coffee together and my wife reads to the kids. They go off to bed at about nine o’clock. I usually work for two or three hours every evening during the week.

W: 你经常带工作回家吗？

M: Yes, it’s unavoidable. Sometimes we invite friends for a meal to our home. Not usually during the week, though. And sometimes we go out to a show.

A Friendly Neighbor

    Mr. and Mrs. Brown’s apartment was in a mess. It was full of boxes and luggage. They were very busy packing when they heard a knock on the door.

    Mrs. Brown went to open it and saw an old lady standing outside. The lady said she lived next door. Mrs. Brown invited her to come in and apologized because things were all over the floor and there was no place for her to sit. The lady said it was OK and she had just come to welcome them to be her neighbors in this building. Before Mr. and Mrs. Brown could explain anything, the lady added that in some parts of this city neighbors were not friendly at all and that some people didn’t know any of their neighbors, not even the ones living next door. It seemed to her that people in this building were very friendly and they were like one big family. At last, the lady wished Mr. and Mrs. Brown a happy life here.

Part A  Reading Aloud

   Isaac Newton has always been a hero of mine, and probably every physicist you'll ever meet. He wasn’t an easy character. He arrived in Cambridge in 1661 after a difficult childhood. His father had died before he was born and his mother had abandoned him at the age of three. But the young Newton showed his genius at an early age. He wondered what light might be made of and wanted to know how vision worked and he was prepared to try anything to find out. One night in his darkened laboratory, he decided to experiment on his own eye.

生词：facilities 设施   competitive竞争的

M: Tell me, Mary, what sports do you play?

W: I’m absolutely mad about tennis.

M: I love watching tennis matches.

W: I also enjoy playing volleyball from time to time. But you may be surprised to hear that in my student days, I used to play on a women’s football team.

M: What? Football is a men’s game.

W: Well, women’s football is not at all uncommon in Britain. After all, why should football be limited to men?

M: But I think football is much too rough a game for women to play.

W: Perhaps. But… you know, sports are our strong tradition.

M: 体育运动在英国中学和大学里重要吗？

W: Yes. All of our schools and universities provide ample facilities for sports like football and swimming. We think sports will enable the students to better face everyday life in the highly competitive society we are living in.

M: 哪些体育运动在英国最流行？

W: Well, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. The game had its origin in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier; though as an organized game, it dates only from the beginning of the nineteenth century.

M: 体育运动是不是谈话中的常用话题？

W: Oh, yes, in fact, I think it’s safe to say that apart from the weather, it’s the thing most talked about in Britain. So if we want to start a conversation with a stranger, we’d better start talking about the weather or a recent football match. If you try that, you’ll find it usually works.

Birthday Dinner

   The birthday of Tom’s mother was coming up. Tom planned to take her out for her birthday dinner. He knew that his mom loved French food more than anything else, so he called the only French restaurant in town to make a reservation. But there were no tables available.

   Tom decided to cook a French meal for his mom by himself. He knew that his mom got very happy whenever he made an effort. But Tom wasn’t a good cook. In fact, he was a terrible cook. Every time he tried to make dinner, even the neighbors smelt how bad it was. Then Tom got another idea, “Why not order some French food? I can serve that food instead of my bad cooking!” The day finally arrived. While mom was still at work, Tom ordered the food, picked it up, and brought it home.

   As he laid down the knives and forks, and lit the candles, mom walked in. "Happy Birthday! Mom!" Tom showed off the beautiful dinner, smiling. Mom looked a little confused. Then she responded happily, "You are so sweet, my dear. But my birthday is tomorrow, and I guess it's always good to practice!"

    时态考题是历年高考英语单项选择题的“热点”。近年来，时态考题加强了对现在完成时态的考查，现在完成时态几乎成了每年考查时态的“核心”考点之一。因此考生应掌握好现在完成时态的基本用法，结合语境，善于捕捉信息，综合运用语态等其它方面知识，灵活解题。

现在完成时态有三方面基本用法：

   一、现在完成时态主要强调过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响或结果。要注意它和一般过去时的区别：一般过去时只叙述过去发生的事情或情况，它不“关心”现在的情况。现在完成时态常和already、just、ever、before、yet等副词连用。

题例：

 1.The price ________,but I doubt whether it will remain so.(NMET 99)

    A. went down         B. will go down       C. has gone down       D. was going down

 2.–Who is Jerry Cooper?

   -________? I saw you shaking hands with him at the meeting. (NMET 97)

  A. Don’t you meet him yet          B. Hadn’t you met him yet

  B. Didn’t you meet him yet         D. Haven’t you met him yet

 3. --________ my glasses?

    --Yes, I saw them on your bed a minute ago.  (NMET 96)

  A. Do you see     B. Had you seen      C. Would you see       D. Have you seen

 4.When I was at college I ________three foreign languages, but I ________all except a  few words of each.（NMET 90）                                                        

  A.spoke; had forgotten                      B.spoke; have forgotten

  C.had spoken; had forgotten                 D.had spoken; have forgotten

5.  All the preparations for the task______, and we're ready to start. (2000春季北京,安徽卷)

  A. completed       B.complete       C. had been completed           D. have been completed

简析：

 1、C．后半句“我怀疑它是否会这样保持下去”，说明现在物价已经下跌，着重强调现在的情况。

 2、D．

 3、D．问者实则关心的是现在他的眼镜在何处。

 4、B．此题对比考查一般过去时态和现在完成时态的区别。说三门外语是过去在大学时的事情，但是现在我忘得差不多了。注意句中并列连词but 所隐含的解题信息。

 5、D．由并列分句we’re ready to start 所表示的时间推断，应排除表示过去的A项和C项，应选用现在完成时，方能在句意、逻辑上与we’re ready 相一致――此项任务的一切准备工作均已就绪，（才）可以开始了。

   二、现在完成时态表示某一动作或状态从过去一直延续到现在。这种用法的基本特点是： 延续性动作或状态常跟用for或ever since/since引出的“时间段”或表示延续意义的副词连用，如： for some time 、long、so far、 the last/past year等 。

题例：

6. —How are you today? 

   --Oh, I ________as ill as I do now for a very long time . (NMET 2000)

 A. didn’t feel       B. wasn’t feeling      C. don’t feel      D. haven’t felt

7.–I’m sorry to keep you waiting.

  -Oh, not at all. I _______here only a few minutes. (NMET  94)

  A. have been       B. had been          C. was          D. will be

   现在完成时的这种用法可用于固定句式It’s(=It has been)+时间段+since从句。在此句式中，如果从句中用的是非延续性动词，那么，就表示这一段时间是从该短暂动作开始的时间起向后延续；如果从句中用的是延续性动词或表示状态的动词，则表示这一段时间是从该延续性动作或状态结束的时间起向后延续。

题例：

8.–What was the party like?

  -Wonderful, it’s  (=it has been  作者加注) years ________I enjoyed myself so much..(NMET93)

 A. after            B. when             C. before            D. since

    句中“enjoy”为延续性动词,表示“enjoy” 这一动作自结束后已经多年了,也就是说已经多年没有那样开心了。又如：

     It’s(=It has been) ten years since he joined the Party

     =He has been in the Party for ten years.

    不过,人们习惯用It’s…，而少用It has been…

答案：6、D      7、A      8、D

  二、现在完成时还可以表示迄今为止,某动作发生的次数。

  题例：

 9. You don’t need to describe her. I ________her several times. (NMET 95)

  A. had met           B. have met          C. met           D. meet

    注：在句式“It’s+序数词或最高级+名词”含有“总结”性意味时,所接定语从句通常用“完成时态”。实则这是现在完成时态第三种用法在此固定结构中的习惯运用，或者说是其用法的延伸。例如：

10.–Do you know our town at all ?

   -No, this is the first time I _______here.  (NMET 92)

  A. was            B. am going            C. came          D. have been

11. It’ll be the biggest live concert the world has ever seen . (SEFC BOOK I B unit 26)   

     它将会是全世界所看到的最大的现场直播音乐会。

12. This is the only party (that) I’ve ever really enjoyed in my life.

     这是我一生中真正喜欢的唯一的一次聚会。

13. Don’t forget, it will be the second time (that) he has stayed up all night.

     别忘了,这会是他第二次通宵末睡。

14. Today is the second time she has spoken in public.

     今天是他第二次在公开场合发表讲话。

   当然,上述句型中,当主句动词为is或will be时,that从句的动词用现在完成时；如果主句动词为was时,that 从句的动词通常用过去完成时。例如：

  It was the third time he had met with misfortunes in his life.

    那是他一生中所遭受到的第三次不幸。

   在实际运用中,现在完成时态的三方面用法不是截然分开，而是相辅相成的。例如题例9中的现在完成时态的用法是其第一方面和第三方面用法的融合。

   另外,在时间状语从句或条件状语从句中,往往用现在完成时态代替将来完成时态。

15.  When you have finished your experiment, please tidy the lab and put everything back in   the cupboards.(SEFC BOOK I A unit2 )

16.  When he _______all the newspapers, he’ll go home。

  A. sell          B. will have sold       C. will sell      D. has sold

    答案：9、B      10、D      16、D .相当于will have sold
