She ran over and told me her name was Abigail. She was very nice and we became close straight away. We spent all morning together and began to talk to another girl called Stacey. The three of us sat together in class all day and we even made our way home together! It went so quickly. Our teacher told us that tomorrow we would really start learning and developing new skills.

Have you ever thought of quitting your job when you feel exhausted Maybe most of you would say “yes”. After a particularly busy period at work, I decided to get away from it all by going on a hike in the mountains in southern France.
Before I left, I read an interesting story in a magazine. It read, “Once, while I was riding on a crowded bus, the man sitting next to me threw his cell phone out of the window when his phone rang. I was surprised. He looked at me, shrugged (耸耸肩) and looked away. I had no idea whether it was his or stolen or whether he even knew what a cell phone was or not, but he clearly wanted to be free of it, because it clearly troubled him.”
Billions of people across the world use cell phones. Though cell phones are a wonderful way for communication, they often do the exact opposite. Using cell phones can increase stress within families and friends.
So when I recently returned home, I got rid of my cell phone. Now I go outside without taking my phone with me. I’ve noticed things in my neighborhood I never noticed before, such as gardens. I’ve met new people, started conversations with neighbors I didn’t speak to before and talked with some of my friends face to face instead of chatting over the phone.
Instead of keeping me off from the world, stopping using my cell phone has helped me get even closer to my family and friends.
8. According to the story, the man on the bus threw away his cell phone because .
A. it didn’t work properly B. it was stolen from someone else
C. he didn’t like the phone’s style D. he didn’t want to be bothered by it
9 We can learn from the passage that cell phones .
A. are too expensive for many people

C. can also get people into trouble
D. can make life more interesting
10. What can we learn about the author
A He wants to own a garden now.
B. He always chatted with his neighbors.
C. He used to take his cell phone when going outside.
D. He once threw away his cell phone.
11. The main purpose of the passage is to .

C. share his experiences in France with us
D. teach us how to get along with neighbors
D
In China, many people are leaving the countryside to find jobs in the cities, because the countryside is much poorer than the city, and often there isn’t much work there. Services such as hospital and transport are usually much better in the city than in the countryside. They hope that their lives will improve when they move to the city.
But in the big cities of Europe like London or Pads, people are moving out of the city. These rich families want to live a quieter life. They are tired of the noise and the dirt of the city, and they are tired of the crowded streets, crowded trains and buses. They don’t want to live in the cities any more. They want a house with a garden in the countryside, and breathe the fresh air there.
So they move out of the cities. Some don’t go very far, just a little way out of the city, to the towns near the cities, other people move to the real countryside with sheep, cows and green fields. There, they start new lives and try to make new friends.
Not all those who move from the city to the countryside are happy. After two or three years, many people who have done this feel that it was a big mistake. They don’t make so much money and there isn’t much work to do. People in the countryside are very different and aren’t always very friendly.
As a result, quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the city. "
It’s wonderful to see crowds in the streets and cinema lights," they say.
12. Which is NOT the reason for people moving to the cities in China
A. The countryside is much poorer than me city.
B. People in the countryside have nothing to eat.
C. People in the countryside don’t have much work to do there.
D. Services in cities are usually much better than those in the countryside.
13. Why do some rich families in Europe move to the countryside
A. Because they will find good jobs.
B. Because they can make more money there.
C. Because they are tired of living in the city.
D. Because they like feeding sheep and cows in the green fields.
14. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph shows __________.
A. they are happy to move back to the city
B. they miss their friends in the countryside
C. they still want to move to the countryside
D. they are tired of the noise and the crowded streets in the city
15. The best title of this passage may be “__________”.
A. A happy life! B. Living in the city!
C. Living in the countryside! D. Moving out or moving back

Ali and his younger sister, Zahra, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months, the landlord was breathing down their necks.
One day, Ali took Zahra's shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn't until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali's running shoes. Zahra's school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.
Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the city. When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.

I’ve met new people, started conversations with neighbors I didn’t speak to before and talked with some of my friends face to face instead of chatting over the phone.
Instead of keeping me off from the world, stopping using my cell phone has helped me get even closer to my family and friends.

【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段Instead of keeping me off from the world, stopping using my cell phone has helped me get even closer to my family and friends.(停止使用手机不但没有让我远离这个世界,反而让我与家人和朋友更加亲近。)可知,本文的目的是告诉我们不要让手机控制了我们的生活。故选A。

D
In China, many people are leaving the countryside to find jobs in the cities, because the countryside is much poorer than the city, and often there isn’t much work there. Services such as hospital and transport are usually much better in the city than in the countryside. They hope that their lives will improve when they move to the city.
But in the big cities of Europe like London or Pads, people are moving out of the city. These rich families want to live a quieter life. They are tired of the noise and the dirt of the city, and they are tired of the crowded streets, crowded trains and buses. They don’t want to live in the cities any more. They want a house with a garden in the countryside, and breathe the fresh air there.
So they move out of the cities. Some don’t go very far, just a little way out of the city, to the towns near the cities, other people move to the real countryside with sheep, cows and green fields. There, they start new lives and try to make new friends.
Not all those who move from the city to the countryside are happy. After two or three years, many people who have done this feel that it was a big mistake. They don’t make so much money and there isn’t much work to do. People in the countryside are very different and aren’t always very friendly.
As a result, quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the city. "
It’s wonderful to see crowds in the streets and cinema lights," they say.
12. Which is NOT the reason for people moving to the cities in China
A. The countryside is much poorer than me city.
B. People in the countryside have nothing to eat.
C. People in the countryside don’t have much work to do there.
D. Services in cities are usually much better than those in the countryside.
13. Why do some rich families in Europe move to the countryside
A. Because they will find good jobs.
B. Because they can make more money there.
C. Because they are tired of living in the city.
D. Because they like feeding sheep and cows in the green fields.
14. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph shows __________.
A. they are happy to move back to the city
B. they miss their friends in the countryside
C. they still want to move to the countryside
D. they are tired of the noise and the crowded streets in the city
15. The best title of this passage may be “__________”.
A. A happy life! B. Living in the city!
C. Living in the countryside! D. Moving out or moving back
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【分析】本文为议论文。这篇短文主要谈论的是生活在城市好还是生活在乡下好的问题,作者通过一些具体的例子说明了人们的这种矛盾心理,没有给出具体结论
【12题详解】
细节理解题。依据文章第一段 “In China, many people are leaving the countryside to find jobs in the cities, because the countryside is much poorer than the city, and often there isn’t much work there. Services such as hospital and transport are usually much better in the city than in the countryside.”在中国,许多人离开农村到城市找工作,因为农村比城市贫穷得多,而且那里常常没有多少工作,在城市里,医院和交通等服务通常比农村要好得多。可知选项A、C和D项是人们到大城市的原因,只有选项B(农村人没有吃的东西)不属于人们移居到城市的原因,所以选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段These rich families want to live a quieter life. They are tired of (厌倦) the noise and the dirt of the city,可知这些富裕的家庭想过安静的生活。他们厌倦了城市的喧嚣和污垢,所以选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后三段可知,并不是所有从城市搬到农村的人都是幸福的。两三年后,许多人认为这是一个大错误。他们赚的钱不多,也没有多少工作要做。农村的人非常不同,并不总是很友好。因此,很多搬到农村的人都搬回了城市。所以当他们看到城市的人来人往感觉太好了,由此可知许多城市居住的人厌倦了乡下的生活,所以此句说他们回到了城市感到很高兴,故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要谈论的是生活在城市好还是生活在乡下好的问题,并把中国与欧洲进行了对比。分析选项可知D项(从城市中搬出去还是搬进来)最为符合题意,故选D。

【17题详解】
由小标题Be yourself(做你自己)以及后文If some people don’t accept you, they’re not the kind of friends you need.(如果有些人不接受你,他们就不是你需要的那种朋友)由此可知,本句是在强调不要为了与他人建立良好关系面而改变自己。故D选项“不要为了与他人建立良好关系面而改变自己”符合句意。故D选项切题。

根据后文内容Remember to be nice to the people you meet at your new school. If you think that you will say something that may make them feel sad, do not anything and just nod your head if they talk to you. Also, remember to be as helpful as possible!”可知记住要对你在新学校遇到的人友善。如果你认为你会说一些让他们感到悲伤的话,最好不要这么做,只要他们和你说话,你应该点头回应他们的话。另外,记住要尽可能地帮助别人!由此可知,本段主要谈的是要对他人友好。故A选项“对他人要友好”符合小标题。故A选项切题。
19题详解】
根据上文Raise your head and make eye contact with other people.(抬起头,与其他人进行眼神接触)以及后文Introduce yourself. Tell them your name and where you’re from.(自我介绍。告诉他们你的名字和你来自哪里)由此可知,本句与上下句一同来说明在交流时一些自信的做法。故E选项“如果你看到你认识的人,微笑或说‘嗨’”符合句意。故E选项切题。
【20题详解】
根据后文Besides, ask them in a kind way if they have a nickname可知,另外,以一种亲切的方式问他们是否有昵称。由此可知,本句是要说明这种方式所取得的效果。故F选项“你会惊讶于这种方法有多么有用”符合句意。故F选项切题。

Ali and his younger sister, Zahra, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months, the landlord was breathing down their necks.
One day, Ali took Zahra's shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn't until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali's running shoes. Zahra's school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.
Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the city. When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.
注意:
(1)所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
(2)续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;

The day of race arrived. Ali had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache.(痛)

Filled with delight, Ali walked home quickly.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
The day of race arrived. Ali had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Zahra and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right behind the two fastest runners, determined to finish third. Finally, he heard the announcement from the broadcast that he won the third prize. Holding the shoes close to his chest during the award ceremony, Ali felt overjoyed and relieved as he eventually won the shoes for his sister.(Refusing to give up at this point, he jumped to his feet and ran as fast as he could. He dashed across the finish line and won the fourth prize. Thinking he would let her sister down, Ali couldn't help sobbing. Just then he suddenly heard the announcement from the broadcast that he won the third prize as the runner who collided with Ali was disqualified for breaking the rule. Holding the shoes close to his chest during the award ceremony, Ali felt overjoyed and relieved as he eventually won the shoes for his sister. )
Paragraph 2:
Filled with delight, Ali walked home quickly. He could not wait to see his sister and share the good news. On his arrival, Ali found Zahra was waiting outside. Nervous and anxious, Zahra wondered whether her brother had brought her what she was expecting. “Zahra, see what I have got for you.” Ali said excitedly, taking the prize out of his bag with his trembling hands. The instant Zahra saw the shoes, her face lit up. So thrilled was she that she threw herself at Ali. “Thank you! Ali.” Tears of joy welled up in their eyes as the brother and the sister hugged tightly together.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开,主角是生在穷苦家庭的一对兄妹,有一天哥哥Ali拿着妹妹Zahra的鞋去修,却在回家路上把鞋弄丢了,为了不让父母生气俩人约定保守秘密:哥哥早上穿鞋去学校,中午跑回家把鞋换给妹妹。城里举办了长途赛跑,第三名奖品是一双新鞋,Ali决定为了妹妹去参加。
