Watching kids' cartoons can be an effective way to learn a language. The basic plot lines of kids' cartoons are fairly simple and the characters speak more slowly, and the dialogue is typically standard and casual. Here are four worldwide popular kids' cartoons which may help you with your English learning.

Peppa Pig

Peppa Pig, the pink piggy, has gained worldwide popularity. There are even videos showing an American child speaking in a British accent to her mom after watching the popular cartoon.

The Simpsons

The Simpsons in the ' 90s was smart, culturally savvy (有见识的), and unbelievably entertaining TV about an average American family. At its height, no show - animated or otherwise - could reach The Simpsons' greatness. From the cleverness of “Marge vs. the Monorail” to everything Lisa Simpson ever said. The Simpsons was fearless and game-changing television.

Once Upon a Time

Once Upon a Time is a French educational animation, created by Procidis. There are seven series (系列), each focusing on different aspects of knowledge. These are mostly historical, focusing on the overall history of mankind or specified historical fields, such as the lives and achievements of the explorers or inventors.

Sazae-san

Sazae-san is more than a kids' show. It's a cultural institution, a national treasure and the longest- running animated series in the world, ever!

It's about a typical Japanese big family living together in Tokyo. The central character is an outspoken but somewhat clumsy woman in her early 20s, living with her husband, son, father, mother, brother and sister all under one roof.

All of the characters are colorful and funny, and all are named after fish!

Though the spread of good reproduction (复制品) of works of art can be culturally valuable, museums continue to promote the special status of original work and highlight the authenticity (真实) of its exhibits. Unfortunately, this seems to place severe limitations on the kind of experience offered to visitors.

One limitation is related to the way the museum presents its exhibits. Art museums are often called “treasure houses”. We are reminded of this even before we view a collection by the presence of security guards who keep us away from the exhibits. In addition, a major collection like that of London’s National Gallery is housed in numerous rooms, where a single piece of work is likely to be worth more than all the average visitor possesses. In a society that judges the personal status of the individual so much by their material worth, it is therefore difficult not to be impressed by one’s own relative “worthlessness” in such an environment.

Furthermore, consideration of the “value” of the original work in its treasure house setting impresses upon the viewer that since these works were originally produced, they have been assigned a huge value in terms of money by some person or institution more powerful than themselves. Evidently, nothing the viewer thinks about the work is going to alter that value, and so today’s viewer is discouraged from trying to extend that spontaneous, immediate, self-reliant kind of interpretation which would originally have met the work.

The visitor may then be struck by the strangeness of seeing such a variety of paintings, drawings and sculptures brought together in an environment for which they were not originally created. This “displacement effect” is further heightened by the huge volume of exhibits. In the case of a major collection, there are probably more works on display than we could realistically view in weeks or even months.

This is particularly distressing because time seems to be a vital factor in the appreciation of all art forms. A fundamental difference between paintings and other art forms is that there is no prescribed time over which a painting is viewed. Operas, novels and poems are read in a prescribed time sequence, whereas a picture has no clear place at which to start viewing, or at which to finish. Thus art works themselves encourage us to view them superficially, without appreciating the richness of detail and labor that is involved.

Consequently, the dominant critical approach becomes that of the art historian, a specialized academic approach devoted to “discovering the meaning” of art within the cultural context of its time. This is in harmony with the museum’s function, since the approach is dedicated to seeking out and conserving “authentic”, “original” readings of the exhibits.

1.The writer mentions London’s National Gallery to illustrate ______.

A.the undesirable cost to a nation of maintaining a huge collection of art

B.the conflict that may arise in society between financial and artistic values

C.the negative effect a museum can have on visitors’ opinion of themselves

D.the need to put individual well-being above large-scale artistic schemes

2.The writer says that today viewers may be unwilling to criticize a work because they ______.

A.lack the knowledge needed

B.fear it may have financial implications

C.have no real concept of the work’s value

D.feel their personal reaction is of no significance

3.The writer says that unlike other forms of art, the appreciation of a painting does not ______.

A.involve direct contact with an audience

B.require a specific location for performance

C.need the involvement of other professionals

D.call for a specific beginning or ending

4.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A.Original work: killer of artistic appreciation

B.Original work: reduction to value of art works

C.Original work: substitute for reproduction

D.Original work: art historians’ bread and butter

The negative health effects of being economical on sleep during the week can't be reversed by marathon weekend sleep sessions, according to a new study.

Researchers have long known that routine sleep lack can cause weight gain and increase other health risks,including diabetes. But those who force themselves out of bed sleepy each weekday after too few hours of shut-eyed, hope that shutting off the alarm on Saturday and Sunday will repay the weekly sleep debt and compensate any ill effects.

The research, published in Current Biology, crushes those hopes. Despite complete freedom to sleep in and nap during a weekend recovery period, participants in a sleep laboratory who were limited to five hours of sleep on weekdays gained nearly three pounds over two weeks and experienced metabolic disruption （新陈代谢紊乱）that would increase their risk for diabetes over the long term. While weekend recovery sleep had some benefits after a single week of insufficient sleep, those gains were wiped out when people plunged back into their same sleep-deprived （剥夺） schedule the next Monday.

"If there are benefits of catch-up sleep, they're gone when you go back to your routine. It's very short-lived," said Kenneth Wright, director of the sleep and chronobiology laboratory at the University of Colorado, who oversaw the work. "It's kind of like smoking once was — people would smoke and wouldn't see an immediate effect on their health, but people will say now that smoking is not a healthy lifestyle choice. I think sleep is in the early stage of where smoking used to be. ”

Michael　 Grandner , director of the sleep and health research program said that the study reinforces the concept that people need to stop thinking of sleep as a balance sheet. Imagine a person who ate nothing but cheeseburgers and french-fries Monday through Friday, but dined only on celery and kale on the weekend and tried to call that a healthy diet. Hugely cutting calories all week and then eating a giant pizza on Saturday wouldn't restore balance either.

1.According to the passage what is the possible result of lack of sleep?

A.Weight loss in a long run.

B.Higher risks of diabetes.

C.Being too weak to marathon.

D.Dying a premature death.

2.What does Wright want to show about catch-up sleep by mentioning smoking?

A.The influence is long-term.

B.The benefits are subtle.

C.The consequence is overlooked.

D.The immediate effects are obvious.

3.Those who favor weekend recovery sleep are likely to believe that______.

A.junk food can be balanced by occasional healthy diets

B.cheeseburgers and french-fries are healthy diets

C.celery and kale are healthy if eaten on the weekend

D.Saturday pizzas are very helpful to gain weight

4.The passage is intended to______.

A.deny a previous concept B.introduce a new study

C.promote a healthy lifestyle D.compare two studies

高三英语单项填空困难题查看答案及解析

Language changes all the time. The words used by young people in the UK can be very different to those used by adults. These extremely informal words and expressions are known as “slang”. Here are a few examples:

·Instead of using different tag question like isn’t it? Can’t you or don’t they? People use “innit”.e.g. It’s hot here, isn’t it?=It’s hot here, innit!

·Instead of saying very, really or completely, they use “well”. e.g. I’m well tired.

· “Whatever” means “I don’t care”. e.g. A: But the teacher says we can’t leave until we’ve finished. B:Whatever. I’m going.

Nobody uses slang and not everybody likes it. A school in Sheffield, in the north of England, recently instructed its pupils to stop using slang words. The head teacher says that if young people learn to speak ‘correctly’ this will help them get a good job.

When British people use slang, it’s no surprise that some students say they can’t understand native speakers. But perhaps learners don’t need to worry about communicating with native speakers so much. Research shows that most of the English spoken in the world today is spoken between non-native speakers of the language. In fact, when we think about “International English”, there is no such thing as a native or non-native speaker.

How important is it to understand these slang words and expressions? If you watch films or TV, chat online in English, then understanding slang can be very useful. But you probably won’t see much slang in your English exam though. With over seven billion people living on our planet today, it’s easy to think one person’s actions won’t make a difference, however, from personal experience, I can say: each of us is capable of making a difference, however small, to someone’s life.

1.Based on the slang mentioned above, what is the meaning of “I think you got me well wrong.”?

A. I think you really hurt my feelings

B. I think you totally misunderstood me

C. I think you found the completely wrong person

D. I think you completely brought the wrong thing

2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. It is essential to learn all the British slang

B. Native English speakers cannot understand each other well

C. English is used more between non-native speakers currently

D. Young people in Britain often use the same slang words as their parents

3.In the author’s opinion, why shouldn’t English learners be concerned about slangs?

A. British slangs can hardly come across to English learners

B. English learners won’t speak with the native speakers

C. English learners can make a difference in the world

D. There are more people who don’t use native slang to communicate

4.The author may agree to the opinion that _______.

A. individuals can play a part in others’ life

B. slang learning is an important part of language learning

C. one may express his doubt and disbelief by saying “Whatever”

D. English learners may feel difficult to communicate without slang
