2019-2020年高中英語Module4CarnivalSectionⅣOtherPartsoftheModule教學(xué)案外研版必修5 [原文呈現(xiàn)] [讀文清障]　 The Meaning of Carnival Carnival today is an international, multicultural① experience②. But how did it bee so? To understand what carnival is all about③， we need to look at the history of America and the meeting of two cultures — European and African. The arrival of Europeans in America, and the opening of huge farms and plantations④ to grow cotton, fruit and vegetables, meant there was an immediate need⑤ for people to work on them⑥. This marked⑦ the beginning of the slave trade⑧. For more than two hundred years, until the beginning of the 19th century, when the trade was finally stopped, millions of people were taken by force⑨ from their homes in Africa and transported to the New World to work as slaves. Six million were taken to the Caribbean islands where? there were British and French landowners?. ①multicultural/m?ltik?lt??r?l/adj.多元文化的；跨文化的 ②experience n. 作“體驗，經(jīng)歷”講時，是可數(shù)名詞；作“經(jīng)驗”講時，是不可數(shù)名詞。 ③動詞不定式短語 To understand ... 作目的狀語。 what carnival is all about 為賓語從句。 ④plantation/plɑ?nteI?n/n.農(nóng)莊；莊園 ⑤an immediate need 急需 ⑥The arrival ...on them.中，主語是 the arrival ... and the opening ..., 謂語是 meant, 賓語是 there be 結(jié)構(gòu)，注意 there 前省略了引導(dǎo)賓語從句的 that。 ⑦mark/mɑk/vt.標(biāo)志(著) ⑧trade/treId/n.貿(mào)易 ⑨be taken by force 被強(qiáng)行帶走，注意其前 when 引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語從句，修飾先行詞 the 19th century。 ⑩transport/trnsp??t/vt.運(yùn)輸；運(yùn)送 ?where ...為定語從句，修飾 the Caribbean islands。 ?landowner/lnd??n?/n.地主；土地?fù)碛姓? 狂歡節(jié)的意義 [第1～2段譯文] 今天的狂歡節(jié)是一個國際性的、多元文化的節(jié)日。但是它是怎么變成這樣的呢？為了了解狂歡節(jié)的全部意義所在，我們需要看一看美國的歷史以及兩種文化的混合——?dú)W洲文化和非洲文化。 歐洲人到了美洲，開辟了栽種棉花、水果和蔬菜的大農(nóng)場與大種植園，這意味著急需干活的人手。這標(biāo)志著奴隸貿(mào)易的開始。200多年以來，成千上萬的人被迫離開非洲老家，被運(yùn)送到新大陸做奴隸，直到19世紀(jì)初期，奴隸貿(mào)易最終被禁止。600萬人被帶到加勒比海的島嶼去，那里有英國和法國的地主。 Naturally?， the Europeans also imported? their own festivals. So the slaves were forced to watch? as their masters? celebrated carnival with food, drink, and masked dances. In Trinidad?， the slaves began to hold their own carnival celebrations: they painted their faces white?， imitating their masters and making fun of? them?. But at the same time they were continuing their own African traditions — such as walking round a village wearing masks and singing — a custom which they thought would bring good luck. ?naturally adv.自然地，常作評注性狀語。 ?import/Imp??t/vt.引進(jìn)；進(jìn)口 ?be forced to do＝be forced into doing被迫做…… ?master/mɑ?st?/n.主人 ?Trinidad/trInIdd/特立尼達(dá)島 ?paint ... white 把……涂白 ?make fun of 取笑 ?現(xiàn)在分詞短語 imitating ... and making ... 作伴隨狀語。 at the same time 同時 continue ... tradition(s) 保留……傳統(tǒng) which they thought would bring good luck 為定語從句，修飾 a custom。其中 they thought 為插入語。 bring good luck 帶來好運(yùn) [第3段譯文] 自然地，歐洲人也帶去了他們自己的節(jié)日。所以當(dāng)奴隸主用食物、飲料、戴面具的舞蹈來慶?？駳g節(jié)時，奴隸們被迫觀看。在特立尼達(dá)島，奴隸們開始舉行他們自己的狂歡節(jié)慶祝活動：他們把臉涂白，模仿他們的主人來取笑他們。但是同時他們一直保留著他們自己的非洲傳統(tǒng)——例如戴著面具邊繞村莊走邊唱歌——一種他們認(rèn)為會帶來好運(yùn)的傳統(tǒng)。 When the slave trade was abolished in 1838 the former slaves took over the carnival. It became more colourful and more exciting than it had been before. Magnificent costumes were made and musical bands created. Carnival became a celebration of freedom. With the passing of time, the white inhabitants of the island began to take part in the carnival, too — and they were weled by their former slaves. Carnival became a way to unite different munities， as people forgot their everyday problems and enjoyed themselves eating, drinking, and dancing. Today, visitors from all over the world e to this small state in the Caribbean to join in the fun.

Some of them have huge noses. They have empty cheeks and large stupidly smiling mouths. Their faces are painted red, blue, and black; some are even green. They have antlers (鹿角) on their heads and long black horsehair hanging down their backs. Who can these people be? They are not nearly as frightening as they look. They are the Delaware celebrating their form of Thanksgiving, the Festival of the Corn Goddess. They are thanking her for the harvest and asking her to send them another good harvest next year. The faces are really masks, which are worn as part of the ceremony. In the past many Native American people made use of masks in ceremonies and celebrations. The masks varied from nation to nation, but they were most often used for religious reasons. When a nation was going to war, those going into battle would wear terrible masks to honor the god of war, whose totem (圖騰) was set up in the center of the camp. All the fighters would dance in front of it. Many of the masks still exist. They are made of many different materials, but the majority are of skillfully carved wood or of animal skins. Some masks were in the forms of birds and animals, but others were in human forms. They were painted in bright colors and covered with beautiful designs. Often these included symbols for the things the people depended on for their lives, such as rain, sunlight, plants, and fire. Sometimes, people wore masks to hide their faces from the enemy. Often, we, too, wear masks to hide our feelings because we are too proud or shy to show them to others. These are not the kind of masks worn on Halloween but are the facial expressions that we expect to cover our inner thoughts. Although these_masks do not look like those of the Native Americans, perhaps our reasons for wearing them are similar. 語篇解讀：本文是說明文。文章介紹了面具的一些基本情況。 1．At the beginning of the text, the author ________. A．describes an interesting scene B．shows the origin of Thanksgiving C．tells how people celebrate Thanksgiving D．introduces the customs of the Native Americans 解析：選A　寫作手法題。在文章開頭，作者描述了一個有趣的場景，由此引出本文的主題——面具。 2．What do we know about the masks worn by the Native Americans? A．They were mainly worn by soldiers. B．They were used for political reasons. C．They differed from one nation to another. D．They were worn to honor the god of war. 解析：選C　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的“The masks varied from nation to nation ...”可知選C。 3．The fourth paragraph is mainly about ________. A．different kinds of masks B．what most masks are made of C．when and why people wear masks D．the things people depended on for their lives 解析：選A　段落大意題。第四段主要介紹了不同的面具，包括材質(zhì)、形狀、顏色、圖案等。 4．What does the underlined part “these masks” in the last paragraph refer to? A．Masks used to hide ourselves from the enemy. B．Masks used to cover our true feelings. C．Masks worn by ancient people. D．Masks worn on Halloween. 解析：選B　推理判斷題。文章前面的部分都在說具體的面具，最后一段談到抽象的面具，也就是人的表情，這種“面具”讓他人無法看到你真正的喜怒哀樂。此處的these masks就是上文提到的“the facial expressions that we expect to cover our inner thoughts”。 Ⅱ.語法填空 Few people would even think of beginning a new job at the age of 76, __1__ one of Americas most famous artists did just that.
