Back in 2001，Pen Hadow and I traveled to the North Pole.One morning we’d just taken down our tent and started skiing. Pen was in front，and I was following him.Suddenly I got a strange feeling that something was behind us. I stopped，looked back and saw a polar bear, walking towards us.
Pen and I planned to stay where we were, try and look big, and frighten it away. Pen had a shotgun that we’d bought in Russia.That was his job. My job was to look big and to take off my skis, hold the skis in the air, make lots of noise，and frighten away the bear. Pen raised the gun and fired into the air. However, it jammed and failed to work.
The bear was walking towards us. Pen tried again, but again it didn’t work.Then he walked towards the bear, and I thought，“Wow，Pen’s gone completely mad. He’s going to get eaten.What should I do ”
I thought maybe I could throw a ski at it or stab(刺) it with a ski pole or something.Suddenly, the bear stopped. Pen stopped. Bang! The gun went off in the air. There was a big cloud of smoke that I thought surprised Pen and me more than it surprised the bear.The animal looked up, looked down, turned around and walked off. Pen turned round and said, “Quick，get the camera and take a photograph,” and that was when suddenly I felt really nervous. I couldn’t even undo the zip on our bag.
That was the morning of the second day of this journey. We were out there for two months—fifty-nine days, but we never saw another bear that close.

I spend half of my life with my mother and the other half with my father. My father lives with a twenty-pound cat named Tofu. He calls me his favorite daughter. I am the only child.
My father's apartment is quite different from any other people's living space.Except for my room,there is no furniture.He doesn't like sofas or any comfortable chairs,so he has only a drawing table,a desk and a bed. For three years he has resisted buying a stereo because he thinks it's ugly and will mess up his studio.
From my father's studio window, you can see a large part of San Francisco. like to watch the colors change in the bay when the sun is setting.All the walls are white, and framed posters of my father's last three books hang side by side. He spends a lot of time lying on the studio floor. That's how he thinks,he says. Then he does yoga. He has a big kitchen,and on top of the Refrigeration is an old clock he winds every week for good luck. The last time the clock stopped, my father's car was pulled away by the police and some other unfortunate things happened, so he has become very superstitious(迷信). When he goes out of town, he hires someone to feed Tofu and wind the clock so it won't stop.
The one thing he has plenty of is house rules. You have to take off your shoes when you came in. He won't allow anyone who wears a baseball cap into his house. He says only baseball players should wear baseball caps and only the catchers should wear them backward. Every time I go to stay at his house, he makes up a new rule. "House rule number 579,no television programs with laugh tracks!" he will say. Well then he can never remember the numbers, so they change constantly.
The rule that he always enforces is the one that requires me to write a two-page-long essay anytime I want something.He didn't speak English until he was sixteen, and he had a hard time learning to write it,so he wants me to become a good writer at an early age.The ritual started when I asked him if I could have my ear pierced when I was nine.He said it was barbaric and told me I couldn't do it until I was thirty-five.But I kept asking him, and he finally said that if I wrote an essay and I could persuade him in writing why I wanted holes in my ears, maybe he would say okay. I wrote my first essay for my father, and after one month of writing and rewriting,he backed down and gave me his permission.
8. Which statement is an example of a house rule
A. No baseball players should wear caps backward.
B. Lying on the studio floor can improve the way of thinking.
C. Wearing shoes in the house is not acceptable.
D. Keeping Tofu fed and the clock wound is important.
9. Based on the passage, we can draw the conclusion except that
A. the writer's parents are separated.
B. writing a two-page-long essay is a well-meant intention of the father
C. there are in all 579 house rules and the number is growing
D. my father doesn't want a stereo in his house for its ugliness.
10. Which of the following means the closest to the underlined word "pierced" in paragraph 5
A. A sudden scream pierced the silence.
B. The darkness was pierced by the light from the sun.
C. Boil the corn until it can easily be pierced with a fork.
D. The crazy man threatened to pierce the defense of the police.
11. What is the best title of the passage
A. The Tension between My Father and Me B. A Father's Unusual Habits
C. A Caring Father D. A Challenging Teenager
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是父亲的各种不同寻常的习惯。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The one thing he has plenty of is house rules. You have to take off your shoes when you came in. ” 他有很多家规。你进来的时候必须脱掉鞋子。可知在室内穿鞋是不可接受的。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断类。本题题干意为：根据文章，我们可以得出结论，除了…。根据文中倒数第二段“House rule number 579, no television programs with laugh tracks!”he will say. Well then he can never remember the numbers, so they change constantly. 家庭规则第579，禁止播放有笑声的电视节目!他会说。那么他就永远记不住数字了，所以数字总是在变。我们从这句话里面并不能推断出是否总共有579个规则，更加不能推断出数目是属于增长的趋势。故选C。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文中pierce所在段落的后面一句“I wanted holes in my ears” 我想在耳朵上打个洞。可知题目中“pierce my ear“为穿耳洞，pierced为“刺穿”的意思。而选项中A为“声音响彻”，B为“光划破黑暗”，C为“刺穿”，D为“突破防守”，只有C“把玉米煮到可以用叉子很容易扎进去”最符合pierce在文中物理上的刺穿之意，故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。需根据全文内容判断，我们可知本文主要讲述了我与父亲生活的过程中，父亲在生活中的各种习惯。根据文章第二段“My father's apartment is quite different from any other people's living space.” 我父亲的公寓与别人的生活空间大不相同；第三段讲的是“ He spends a lot of time lying on the studio floor. That's how he thinks,he says. Then he does yoga. He has a big kitchen,and on top of the Refrigeration is an old clock he winds every week for good luck. The last time the clock stopped, my father's car was pulled away by the police and some other unfortunate things happened, so he has become very superstitious(迷信). When he goes out of town, he hires someone to feed Tofu and wind the clock so it won't stop. ” 他说，这就是他的想法。然后他做瑜伽。他有一个大厨房，冰箱上放着一个老钟，他每周都会上发条祈求好运。上次钟停的时候，我父亲的车被警察拖走了，还有一些其他不幸的事情发生了，所以他变得很迷信。当他出城的时候，他会雇人喂Tofu，给钟上发条，这样它就不会停止了。可知主要讲的是爸爸的生活习惯；第四段讲到家规；最后一段讲到“The rule that he always enforces is the one that requires me to write a two-page-long essay anytime I want something.” 他总是坚持的一条规则就是要求我在任何时候都要写一篇两页长的文章。是爸爸总是坚持的一条规则。可判断B选项 A father’s Unusual Habits(父亲不寻常的习惯)。为短文最佳标题，故需选B。
D
Terrafugia Inc. said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight, bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year. The vehicle —named the Transition – has two seats, four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and burns 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.
Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways. It’s expected to cost $279,000. And it won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway.
Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, an airline industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. The government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly. The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards.
Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration’s decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes. Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition, a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet.
12. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. The basic data of the Transition. B. The advantages of flying cars.
C. The potential market for flying cars. D. The designers of the Transition.
13. Why is the Transition unlikely to show up in too many driveways
A. It causes traffic jams. B. It is difficult to operate.
C. It is very expensive. D. It burns too much fuel.
14. What is the government’s attitude to the development of the flying car
A. Cautious B. Favorable.
C. Uncertain D. Disapproving.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. Flying Car at Auto Show B. The Transition’s First Flight
C. Pilots’ Dream Coming True D. Flying Car Closer to Reality
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述Terrafugia公司，研制出了飞车，试飞成功，预计将于明年进行销售。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“The vehicle —named the Transition – has two seats, four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and burns 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon. (这款名为Transition的汽车有两个座位、四个轮子和可以折叠的机翼，这样它就可以像汽车一样驾驶。Transition上个月在1400英尺的高空飞行了8分钟，在公路上的时速可以达到70英里，在空中的时速可以达到115英里。它飞行时需要消耗23加仑的汽油，在空中每小时燃烧5加仑。在地面上，每加仑汽油能跑35英里)”可知，本段主要讲的是Transition的基本数据。故选A项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways. It’s expected to cost $279,000. (但别指望它会出现在太多的车道上。预计售价27.9万美元)”可知，因为Transition的价格较高，所以不太可能在太多的马路上出现。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“The government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly. The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards.(政府已经允许该公司使用特殊材料，使其更容易飞行)”以及最后一段中“Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration’s decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes. (Mann说，美国联邦航空管理局五年前决定为轻型运动飞机制定一套独立的标准，这一标准低于大型飞机飞行员的标准，这对Terrafugia公司是有帮助的)”可知，政府对于飞车的研发是比较支持的。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段中“Terrafugia Inc. said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight, bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year. (特拉弗吉亚公司周一表示，其新型飞行汽车已经完成了首次飞行，这使该公司距离明年销售飞行汽车的目标更近了一步)”以及第三段中“But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. (但Mann认为，Terrafugia比任何人都更接近实现飞行汽车)”可知，本文主要从飞车的试飞成功以及多年以前人们对飞车的设想至今成为现实展开论述。选项D“飞车更接近现实”突出文章主题，适合做标题。故选D项。

【16题详解】
根据上文“It takes time to really get to know someone, but first impressions often determine whether someone is willing to spend more time learning about you. In fact, people's first impressions are made within seven seconds of meeting someone new.”(真正了解一个人是需要时间的，但是第一印象往往决定了一个人是否愿意花更多的时间来了解你。事实上，人们的第一印象是在认识新朋友的七秒钟内形成的)可知，上文引出第一印象这个话题，结合后文列举了给人留下良好第一印象的几种方法，判断该空为过渡句，有承上启下的作用，引出下文给人留下良好印象的建议，选项G.“Here are some tips on how to make a good first impression.”（这里有一些关于如何给人留下良好第一印象的建议）符合语境，故选G。
【17题详解】
根据上文“People want to feel respected before they show you the same respect.”(人们在对你表示同样的尊重之前，都希望自己受到尊重)可知，结合上文强调只有别人感觉到受尊重了，他才会尊重你可知，要尊重他人，即对人有礼貌，故本句承接上文说明要有礼貌。选项F.“Be polite and show manners with “please and thank you ” ”（礼貌地说‘请’和‘谢谢’”）符合语境，故选F。
【18题详解】
根据后文“Don't be afraid to show that you are interested in someone.

【19题详解】
本句为本段主旨句，根据后文“Body language is as important as your words to first impressions. Make sure your posture is good, make strong eye contact (眼神接触) and try to express your interest in others.”(肢体语言和你的语言对第一印象同样重要。确保你的姿势良好，有强烈的眼神接触，试着表达你对别人的兴趣)可知，后文提到肢体语言对第一印象的重要性，后文中Body language可对应到C选项中body language。选项C.“Pay attention to your body language.”（注意你的肢体语言）符合本段主旨，故选C。
【20题详解】
根据上文“If something unfortunate happens, you don't have to follow a scheduled meeting on the day.”(如果不幸的事情发生，当天你不必按照预定的时间去和人见面)以及后文“Let them know you don't want unfavorable things to affect them.”(让他们知道你不希望不愉快的事情影响他们)可知，上文提到了当有不好的事发生时，你没必要非要在同一天赴约，故本句应当是说明针对这种情况的解决方式是：你可以约另一个时间，从而避免让自己的消极情绪影响自己要见的人，选项B.“Instead, you can set another time. ”（相反，你可以设定另一个时间）符合语境，故选B。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一个完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
A man came home from work late, tired and irritated (不耐烦的), to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door.
"Daddy, may I ask you a question "
"Yeah sure, what is it " replied the man.
"Daddy, how much do you make an hour "
"That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing " the man said angrily.
"I just want to know. Please tell me. How much do you make an hour " pleaded the little boy.
"If you must know, I make $20 an hour."
"Oh," the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, "Daddy, may I please borrow $10 "
The father was angry, "If the only reason you asked is that you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish (自私的). I work hard every day for such childish behavior." The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. "How dare he ask such questions only to get some money " he thought to himself. After about an hour or so, the man calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door. "Are you asleep, son " he asked.
"No, daddy, I'm awake," replied the boy.
"I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier," said the man. "It has been a long day and I took out my anger on you. Here's the $10 you asked for."
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. "Oh. Thank you, daddy!" he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled (皱巴巴的) bills.
Paragraph 1:
The man, seeing that the boy already had money started to get angry again.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Not knowing what his son meant, the father just stood there, waiting for his boy's explanation.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The man, seeing that the boy already had money started to get angry again. "How can you be so selfish Why do you want more money since you already have these bills " the father could hardly hold his anger back and inquired with two eyebrows knitted into one. With held-back tears in his eyes, the little boy slowly and carefully counted out his money, and then looked up at his father, replying, "Because I didn't have enough before, but now I do." with big blue eyes shining with tears.
Not knowing what his son meant, the father just stood there, waiting for his boy's explanation. Wiping away his tears and an innocent smile appearing on his face, the boy requested in a relieved voice, "Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour from you Please come home early tomorrow. I want to have dinner with you." Hearing the boy's small but sincere request, the father couldn't hold back his tears. Realizing he was too busy with his business to spare some time with his beloved ones, he gathered his son into his arms and apologized again and again, "Sorry, and I promise I'll be back early tomorrow."

Back in 2001，Pen Hadow and I traveled to the North Pole.One morning we’d just taken down our tent and started skiing. Pen was in front，and I was following him.Suddenly I got a strange feeling that something was behind us. I stopped，looked back and saw a polar bear walking towards us.
Pen and I planned to stay where we were, try and look big, and frighten it away. Pen had a shotgun that we’d bought in Russia.That was his job. My job was to look big and to take off my skis, hold the skis in the air, make lots of noise，and frighten away the bear. Pen raised the gun and fired into the air. However, it jammed and failed to work.
The bear was walking towards us. Pen tried again, but again it didn’t work.Then he walked towards the bear, and I thought，“Wow，Pen’s gone completely mad. He’s going to get eaten.What should I do ”
I thought maybe I could throw a ski at it or stab(刺) it with a ski pole or something.Suddenly, the bear stopped. Pen stopped. Bang! The gun went off in the air. There was a big cloud of smoke that I thought surprised Pen and me more than it surprised the bear.The animal looked up, looked down, turned around and walked off. Pen turned round and said, “Quick，get the camera and take a photograph,” and that was when suddenly I felt really nervous. I couldn’t even undo the zip on our bag.
That was the morning of the second day of this journey. We were out there for two months—fifty-nine days, but we never saw another bear that close.

I spend half of my life with my mother and the other half with my father My father lives with a twenty-pound cat named Tofu. He calls me his favorite daughter. I am the only child.
My father's apartment is quite different from any other people's living space.Except for my room,there is no furniture.He doesn't like sofas or any comfortable chairs,so he has only a drawing table,a desk and a bed. For three years he has resisted buying a stereo because he thinks it's ugly and will mess up his studio.
From my father's studio, window, you can see a large part of San Francisco. like to watch the colors change in the bay when the sun is setting.All the walls are white, and framed posters of my father's last three books hang side by side. He spends a lot of time lying on the studio floor. That's how he thinks,he says. Then he does yoga. He has a big kitchen,and on top of the Refrigeration is an old clock he winds every week for good luck. The last time the clock stopped, my father's car was pulled away by the police and some other unfortunate things happened, so he has become very superstitious(迷信). When he goes out of town, he hires someone to feed Tofu and wind the clock so it won't stop.
The one thing he has plenty of is house rules. You have to take off your shoes when you came in. He won't allow anyone who wears a baseball cap into his house. He says only baseball players should wear baseball caps and only the catchers should wear them backward. Every time I go to stay at his house, he makes up a new rule. "House rule number 579,no television programs with laugh tracks!" he will say. Well then he can never remember the numbers, so they change constantly.
The rule that he always enforces is the one that requires me to write a two-page-long essay anytime I want something.He didn't speak English until he was sixteen, and he had a hard time learning to write it,so he wants me to become a good writer at an early age.The ritual started when I asked him if I could have my ear pierced when I was nine.He said it was barbaric and told me I couldn't do it until I was thirty-five.But I kept asking him, and he finally said that if I wrote an essay and I could persuade him in writing why I wanted holes in my ears, maybe he would say okay. I wrote my first essay for my father, and after one month of writing and rewriting,he backed down and gave me his permission.

Terrafugia Inc. said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight, bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year. The vehicle —named the Transition – has two seats, four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and burns 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.
Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways. It’s expected to cost $279,000. And it won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway.
Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, an airline industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. The government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly. The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards.
Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration’s decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes. Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition, a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet.
12. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. The basic data of the Transition. B. The advantages of flying cars.
C. The potential market for flying cars. D. The designers of the Transition.
13. Why is the Transition unlikely to show up in too many driveways

A man came home from work late, tired and irritated (不耐烦的), to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door.
"Daddy, may I ask you a question "
"Yeah sure, what is it " replied the man.
"Daddy, how much do you make an hour "
"That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing " the man said angrily.
"I just want to know. Please tell me. How much do you make an hour " pleaded the little boy.
"If you must know, I make $20 an hour."
"Oh," the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, "Daddy, may I please borrow $10 "
The father was angry, "If the only reason you asked is that you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish (自私的). I work hard every day for such childish behavior." The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. "How dare he ask such questions only to get some money " he thought to himself. After about an hour or so, the man calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door. "Are you asleep, son " he asked.
"No, daddy, I'm awake," replied the boy.
"I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier," said the man. "It has been a long day and I took out my anger on you. Here's the $10 you asked for."
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. "Oh. Thank you, daddy!" he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled (皱巴巴的) bills.
Paragraph 1:
The man, seeing that the boy already had money started to get angry again.

Not knowing what his son meant, the father just stood there, waiting for his boy's explanation.
