Raising just one child can be a tough job for any parent, which is why this woman is being honored for taking in more than 600 children over the course of five decades. 75-year-old Linda Herring from Johnson County, Iowa has been tirelessly providing food, clothing, love and medical care for hundreds of adopted kids since the 1970s.
When Herring first began adopting kids, she was also running a home daycare and working as a night custodian(监护人)in a local high school. Additionally, she volunteered as a first responder for 50 years of her life.
Out of the hundreds of adopted kids that Herring has taken under her wing, many of them experienced a range of medical conditions and special needs—but that never prevented Herring. Linda mostly adopted young children and children with special medical needs and kept boxes of clothes in her garage, piled to the ceiling, labeled by size and gender. No one had to worry about a child going without clothes at Linda's, even if they arrived with nothing but what they were wearing.
Anthony Herring, who was just 3 years old when he was adopted into Linda's family, described his mother like this: “It's hard to say in words her impact. She is always available and ready for a child in need.” These kids were usually taken from a traumatic(令人痛苦的)situation and she'd take them in, providing a warm bed, clean clothes, warm meals, and love. She also worked hard to keep families together and help biological parents make the changes needed to be able to keep their children. She always made sure a new child in her home was given a professional photograph that was placed on the wall in the living room. “That seems like a small thing, but it helps them feel like they're at home.”
4.Why is Linda Herring respected by people
A.She is fond of her easy work.
B.She has children in her care.
C.She likes to play with children.
D.She provides food for children.
5.Which of the following has the similar meaning with the underlined phrase“taken under her wing”
A.Given response to.
B.Looked after.
C.Provided food for.
D.Provided education for.
6.What do you think of Linda Herring according to Anthony Herring
A.Influential and kind.
B.Generous and optimistic.
C.Intelligent and hard-working.
D.Easy-going and warm-hearted.
7.How did Linda Herring help the adopted children feel at home
A.She gave her children good jobs.
B.She took photos of each of them to enjoy.
C.She offered each of them a professional photograph.
D.She met their needs to make many changes in their life.
C
Suppose you become a leader in an organization. You are likely to have volunteers help with the organization's activities. To do so, it should help to understand why people undertake volunteer work and what keeps their interest in the work.
Let's begin with why people volunteer. Researchers have identified several factors that motivate people to get involved. For example, people volunteer to express personal values related to unselfishness, to expand their range of experiences, and to strengthen social relationships. If volunteer positions do not meet these needs, people may not wish to participate.
People also volunteer because they are required to do so. To increase levels of community service, some schools have launched compulsory volunteer programs. Unfortunately, these programs can shift people's wish of participation from an internal factor (e.g. “I volunteer because it's important to me”) to an external factor (e.g. “I volunteer because I'm required to do so”). When that happens, people become less likely to volunteer in the future. People must be sensitive to this possibility when they make volunteer activities a must.
Once people begin to volunteer, what leads them to remain in their positions over time To answer this question, researchers have conducted follow-up studies where they track volunteers over time. For instance, one study followed 238 volunteers in Florida over a year. One of the most important factors that influenced their satisfaction as volunteers was the suffering they experienced in their volunteer positions. Although this result may not surprise you, it leads to important practical advice. The researchers note that attention should be given to “the training methods that would prepare volunteers for troublesome situations or provide them with strategies for coping with the problem they experience”.
Another study of 302 volunteers at hospitals in Chicago focused on individual differences in the degree to which people view “volunteer” as an important social role. Those people for whom the role of volunteer was most part of their personal identity would also be most likely to continue volunteer work. Participants indicated the degree to which the social role mattered by responding to statements such as “Volunteering in hospital is an important part of who I am.” Consistent with the researchers' expectations, they found a positive correlation(正相关)between the strength of role identity and the length of time people continued to volunteer. These results lead to concrete advice: “Once an individual begins volunteering, continued efforts might focus on developing a volunteer role identity. Items like T-shirts that allow volunteers to be recognized publicly for their contributions can help strengthen role identity.”
8.People tend to volunteer mainly because of .
A.academic requirements
B.spiritual rewards
C.social expectations
D.inner motivations
9.What can we learn from the study in Florida
A.Strategy training is a must in research.
B.Volunteers should get mentally prepared.
C.Follow-up studies should last for one year.
D.Volunteers are provided with concrete advice.
10.What is most likely to motivate volunteers to continue their work
A.Role identity as a volunteer.
B.Individual differences in role identity.
C.Practical suggestions from researchers.
D.Publicly recognizable volunteer T-shirts.
11.What is the best title of the passage
A.How to Get People to Volunteer
B.How to Maintain Volunteers' Interest
C.How to Organize Volunteer Activities
D.How to Conduct Volunteers' Behaviors
D
October sixteenth is World Food Day. This day is also the anniversary of Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations(F.A.O.). The UN agency leads international efforts to defeat world hunger. It was created in 1945.
The F.A.O. says more than one hundred and fifty countries are to hold special events to celebrate World Food Day. At F.A.O. headquarters in Rome, for example, runners will compete in a five-kilometer race through the city's historical area. Events in other countries include discussions among experts, press conferences and musical programs.
The message of this year's World Food Day is “investing in agriculture for food security”. The F.A.O. says, “During the early 1990s, the foreign aid for agriculture was nine thousand million dollars each year. But now, it has declined to less than five thousand million dollars a year.” Yet, the F.A.O. estimates that more than eight hundred and fifty million people around the world do not get enough food.
The UN agency notes that seventy percent of the world's hunger lies in the farmers who grow small amount of food. Many also face problems of feeding themselves. The F.A.O. says agricultural aid could help small farmers make a profit from their crops. Farmers would also be able to feed their families throughout the year and reinvest in their farms. They could buy better seeds, equipment and chemical fertilizers to help their crops grow.
Muhammad Yunus, the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to improve the lives of poor people, as well as his Bangladesh microfinance organization, the Grameen Bank, has lent small amount of money to poor people who are unable to get traditional loans, especially women. Minister Yunus says that he plans to give his share of the one million three hundred thousand dollars Nobel award to good causes. He says he wants to establish an eye hospital and start a project to produce low-cost food for the poor.
12.To celebrate World Food Day, how many kinds of activities are mentioned in the passage
A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five.
13.Which of the following statements is TRUE
A.The F.A.O. is established to invest in agriculture for food security.
B.The foreign aid for agriculture has reduced by nearly 50% in recent decades.
C.The Grameen Bank has provided large amount of loans for poor farmers.
D.Yunus will donate the entire Nobel award to help solve the hunger for the poor.
14.With agricultural aid, farmers can .
A.promote the production of crops
B.produce low-cost food
C.invest money in other fields
D.help to improve crop seeds
15.Why did the writer write the passage
A.To give an introduction of the F.A.O.
B.To inform us of the situations of the world food.
C.To appeal for more investment in agriculture.
D.To show how to deal with the world's hunger.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Whether you volunteer at an animal shelter or in a hospital, volunteering is a wonderful opportunity to bring good into the world and support your community. There are a lot of different volunteering opportunities. 16 Here are some tips on how to be an even better volunteer.
Volunteer for something you love. 17 If your passion is helping those with cancer, volunteer to raise money for research. If you're passionate about improving the environment, volunteer to pick up trash in public places. Your passion will keep you motivated, so put your effort into something you treasure.
18 You are probably not best suited for directing traffic if you are shy. Be respectful to those organizers, but let them know your strengths and show them how your strengths can be beneficial to your volunteer work. Find the balance that brings your talents to the table and really helps the organization.
Be on time. This is a simple but important idea. Think about being late for your work:your boss, co-workers and customers would be upset. The same applies to volunteering. 19 Mix your volunteer jobs. If you become bored, it may be time for a schedule change in your life.
20 It is volunteering, so you aren't stuck in one place.
A.Offer what you can do best.
B.Ask what's expected of volunteers.
C.So if such a thing does happen, just call and let them know.
D.It doesn't matter what it is, but it does matter what you like.
E.Therefore, everyone can find a volunteering opportunity that suits their skills and interests.
F.However, you will volunteer longer in an organization that supports a cause you care about.
G.Volunteer on different days or ask for different tasks to see what other opportunities are out there.

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
After college I wanted to make a difference in the world, so I became a volunteer teacher and 36 (send) to Namibia. Honestly, my first choice wasn't Africa, but I was extremely grateful that I had the chance. So with a group of 37 (equal) eager young graduates, I went on my journey.
Schools were quite bare, and the students 38 (have) tiring days, walking miles to get to school often barefoot. With their mountains
39 work at home, few 40 (possession) and little opportunity, these children were joyful,which I admired.
This 41 (be) my first time to live abroad in a different culture, simply getting used to the living conditions was 42 big adjustment. I had no electricity, running water, phone or the Internet. Imagine no air conditioning at a place 43 the temperature often goes beyond 38 degrees Celsius! Some days it was just too hot to move.
However, I could end each day with a 44 (glory) African sunset. And at night, I had a good view of the Milky Way. Before Namibia, I never thought I would survive in such an environment. My experience awakened me to not only the limitations 45 (place) on ourselves, but also our amazing ability to adapt. Stepping out of your comfort zone in another culture will certainly make your life worthwhile.

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
With busy life, it can be hard to find time to volunteer. However, volunteering brings you lots of benefits. The more you volunteer, the more benefits you will gain. Of course, volunteering does not have to involve a long-term commitment or take a huge amount of time out of your busy days.Giving in simple ways can not only help those in need but also improve your health and happiness.
One of the better-known benefits of volunteering is that it allows you to connect to your community, make it a better place and boast your social skills. Even helping out with the smallest tasks can make a real difference to the lives of people, animals and organizations in need. And volunteering is a two-way street: It can benefit you and your family as much as the others you choose to help.
Volunteering provides many benefits for both mental and physical health.Almost everyone has to fight against stress, anger and anxiety.The social contact aspect of helping and working with others can have a profound effect on your overall psychological well-being. Nothing relieves stress better than a meaningful connection to another person. Working with animals has also been shown to improve mood and reduce stress and anxiety.
Volunteering can also advance your career. If you are considering a new career, volunteering can help you get experience in your area of interest and meet people in the field. Even if you are not planning on changing careers, volunteering gives you the opportunity to practice important skills used in the workplace, such as teamwork, communication, problem solving, project planning, task management and organization. You might feel more comfortable stretching your wings at work once you have developed these skills in a volunteer position first.

10.A 细节理解题。根据文章第五段中的Those people for whom the role of volunteer was most part of their personal identity would also be most likely to continue volunteer work.可知,那些志愿者的角色是他们个人身份的一大部分的人也最有可能继续从事志愿者工作。由此可知,志愿者身份的认可会激励他们继续从事志愿者工作。故选A。
11.A 主旨大意题。结合文章首段可知,文章是为想找志愿者的组织领导者提供意见,下文从两个方面展开,说明要了解人们做志愿者的动机,还要知道人们是依靠什么维持对志愿者工作的兴趣。由此可知,本文通篇围绕如何让人们去做志愿者这一话题展开。选项A“How to Get People to Volunteer”(如何让人们去做志愿者)贴合主题。故选A。
D

But now, it has declined to less than five thousand million dollars a year.(在20世纪90年代早期,对农业的外援每年为90亿美元。但是现在,它已经下降到每年不到50亿美元)可知,从20世纪90年代到现在的几十年中对农业的救助资金已经下降了接近50%,故选B。由第三段首句可知,本年度世界粮食日的主题是“投资农业以保障粮食安全”,这不是联合国粮食及农业组织成立的目的,故排除A项;由最后一段中的the Grameen Bank, has lent small amount of money to poor people可知,格莱珉银行向无法获得传统贷款的穷人提供了小额贷款,故排除C项;由文章最后两句可知,尤努斯部长计划将诺贝尔奖奖金中属于他的部分捐给慈善事业,D项中entire意为“全部的”,故排除D项。

39.of 考查介词。句意:虽然家里有堆积如山的工作,几乎没什么财产和机会,但这些孩子很快乐,这令我很钦佩。mountains of表示“很多的”。故填of。
40.possessions 考查名词复数。句意同上。few修饰可数名词复数形式,且possession意为“个人财产”时常用复数形式。故填possessions。
41.being 考查现在分词。句意:这是我第一次生活在国外不同的文化中,仅仅是适应(那里的)生活条件就是一个很大的调整。句中已有谓语was,所以逗号前面部分在句中作状语,这里是独立主格结构,be与其逻辑主语This之间为主动关系,因此使用现在分词形式。故填being。
42.a 考查冠词。句意同上。这里表示“一个很大的调整”,表示泛指,且big以辅音音素开头,所以用不定冠词a。
43.where 考查关系副词。句意:想象一下在一个温度经常超过38摄氏度的地方没有空调系统!分析句子结构可知,设空处引导定语从句,place为先行词,关系词在从句中作地点状语,因此填where。
44.glorious 考查形容词。句意:然而,我的每一天结束的时候都有非洲壮丽的晚霞。这里用形容词作定语,表示“壮丽的”。故填glorious。
45.placed 考查过去分词。句意:我的经历不仅让我意识到安放在我们自己身上的起限制作用的规则……。limitations与place之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词作后置定语。故填placed。

Raising just one child can be a tough job for any parent, which is why this woman is being honored for taking in more than 600 children over the course of five decades. 75-year-old Linda Herring from Johnson County, Iowa has been tirelessly providing food, clothing, love and medical care for hundreds of adopted kids since the 1970s.
When Herring first began adopting kids, she was also running a home daycare and working as a night custodian(监护人)in a local high school. Additionally, she volunteered as a first responder for 50 years of her life.
Out of the hundreds of adopted kids that Herring has taken under her wing, many of them experienced a range of medical conditions and special needs—but that never prevented Herring. Linda mostly adopted young children and children with special medical needs and kept boxes of clothes in her garage, piled to the ceiling, labeled by size and gender. No one had to worry about a child going without clothes at Linda's, even if they arrived with nothing but what they were wearing.
Anthony Herring, who was just 3 years old when he was adopted into Linda's family, described his mother like this: “It's hard to say in words her impact. She is always available and ready for a child in need.” These kids were usually taken from a traumatic(令人痛苦的)situation and she'd take them in, providing a warm bed, clean clothes, warm meals, and love. She also worked hard to keep families together and help biological parents make the changes needed to be able to keep their children. She always made sure a new child in her home was given a professional photograph that was placed on the wall in the living room. “That seems like a small thing, but it helps them feel like they're at home.”
4.Why is Linda Herring respected by people
A.She is fond of her easy work.
B.She has children in her care.
C.She likes to play with children.
D.She provides food for children.
5.Which of the following has the similar meaning with the underlined phrase“taken under her wing”
A.Given response to.
B.Looked after.
C.Provided food for.
D.Provided education for.
6.What do you think of Linda Herring according to Anthony Herring
A.Influential and kind.
B.Generous and optimistic.
C.Intelligent and hard-working.
D.Easy-going and warm-hearted.
7.How did Linda Herring help the adopted children feel at home
A.She gave her children good jobs.
B.She took photos of each of them to enjoy.
C.She offered each of them a professional photograph.
D.She met their needs to make many changes in their life.

Suppose you become a leader in an organization. You are likely to have volunteers help with the organization's activities. To do so, it should help to understand why people undertake volunteer work and what keeps their interest in the work.
Let's begin with why people volunteer. Researchers have identified several factors that motivate people to get involved. For example, people volunteer to express personal values related to unselfishness, to expand their range of experiences, and to strengthen social relationships. If volunteer positions do not meet these needs, people may not wish to participate.
People also volunteer because they are required to do so. To increase levels of community service, some schools have launched compulsory volunteer programs. Unfortunately, these programs can shift people's wish of participation from an internal factor (e.g. “I volunteer because it's important to me”) to an external factor (e.g. “I volunteer because I'm required to do so”). When that happens, people become less likely to volunteer in the future. People must be sensitive to this possibility when they make volunteer activities a must.
Once people begin to volunteer, what leads them to remain in their positions over time To answer this question, researchers have conducted follow-up studies where they track volunteers over time. For instance, one study followed 238 volunteers in Florida over a year. One of the most important factors that influenced their satisfaction as volunteers was the suffering they experienced in their volunteer positions. Although this result may not surprise you, it leads to important practical advice. The researchers note that attention should be given to “the training methods that would prepare volunteers for troublesome situations or provide them with strategies for coping with the problem they experience”.
Another study of 302 volunteers at hospitals in Chicago focused on individual differences in the degree to which people view “volunteer” as an important social role. Those people for whom the role of volunteer was most part of their personal identity would also be most likely to continue volunteer work. Participants indicated the degree to which the social role mattered by responding to statements such as “Volunteering in hospital is an important part of who I am.” Consistent with the researchers' expectations, they found a positive correlation(正相关)between the strength of role identity and the length of time people continued to volunteer. These results lead to concrete advice: “Once an individual begins volunteering, continued efforts might focus on developing a volunteer role identity. Items like T-shirts that allow volunteers to be recognized publicly for their contributions can help strengthen role identity.”
8.People tend to volunteer mainly because of .
A.academic requirements
B.spiritual rewards
C.social expectations
D.inner motivations
9.What can we learn from the study in Florida
A.Strategy training is a must in research.
B.Volunteers should get mentally prepared.
C.Follow-up studies should last for one year.
D.Volunteers are provided with concrete advice.
10.What is most likely to motivate volunteers to continue their work
A.Role identity as a volunteer.
B.Individual differences in role identity.
C.Practical suggestions from researchers.
D.Publicly recognizable volunteer T-shirts.
11.What is the best title of the passage
A.How to Get People to Volunteer
B.How to Maintain Volunteers' Interest
C.How to Organize Volunteer Activities
D.How to Conduct Volunteers' Behaviors
D
October sixteenth is World Food Day. This day is also the anniversary of Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations(F.A.O.). The UN agency leads international efforts to defeat world hunger. It was created in 1945.
The F.A.O. says more than one hundred and fifty countries are to hold special events to celebrate World Food Day. At F.A.O. headquarters in Rome, for example, runners will compete in a five-kilometer race through the city's historical area. Events in other countries include discussions among experts, press conferences and musical programs.
The message of this year's World Food Day is “investing in agriculture for food security”. The F.A.O. says, “During the early 1990s, the foreign aid for agriculture was nine thousand million dollars each year. But now, it has declined to less than five thousand million dollars a year.” Yet, the F.A.O. estimates that more than eight hundred and fifty million people around the world do not get enough food.
The UN agency notes that seventy percent of the world's hunger lies in the farmers who grow small amount of food. Many also face problems of feeding themselves. The F.A.O. says agricultural aid could help small farmers make a profit from their crops. Farmers would also be able to feed their families throughout the year and reinvest in their farms. They could buy better seeds, equipment and chemical fertilizers to help their crops grow.
Muhammad Yunus, the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to improve the lives of poor people, as well as his Bangladesh microfinance organization, the Grameen Bank, has lent small amount of money to poor people who are unable to get traditional loans, especially women. Minister Yunus says that he plans to give his share of the one million three hundred thousand dollars Nobel award to good causes. He says he wants to establish an eye hospital and start a project to produce low-cost food for the poor.
12.To celebrate World Food Day, how many kinds of activities are mentioned in the passage
A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five.
13.Which of the following statements is TRUE
A.The F.A.O. is established to invest in agriculture for food security.
B.The foreign aid for agriculture has reduced by nearly 50% in recent decades.
C.The Grameen Bank has provided large amount of loans for poor farmers.
D.Yunus will donate the entire Nobel award to help solve the hunger for the poor.
14.With agricultural aid, farmers can .
A.promote the production of crops
B.produce low-cost food
C.invest money in other fields
D.help to improve crop seeds
15.Why did the writer write the passage
A.To give an introduction of the F.A.O.
B.To inform us of the situations of the world food.
C.To appeal for more investment in agriculture.
D.To show how to deal with the world's hunger.

Whether you volunteer at an animal shelter or in a hospital, volunteering is a wonderful opportunity to bring good into the world and support your community. There are a lot of different volunteering opportunities. 16 Here are some tips on how to be an even better volunteer.
Volunteer for something you love. 17 If your passion is helping those with cancer, volunteer to raise money for research. If you're passionate about improving the environment, volunteer to pick up trash in public places. Your passion will keep you motivated, so put your effort into something you treasure.
18 You are probably not best suited for directing traffic if you are shy. Be respectful to those organizers, but let them know your strengths and show them how your strengths can be beneficial to your volunteer work. Find the balance that brings your talents to the table and really helps the organization.
Be on time. This is a simple but important idea. Think about being late for your work:your boss, co-workers and customers would be upset. The same applies to volunteering. 19 Mix your volunteer jobs. If you become bored, it may be time for a schedule change in your life.
20 It is volunteering, so you aren't stuck in one place.
A.Offer what you can do best.
B.Ask what's expected of volunteers.
C.So if such a thing does happen, just call and let them know.
D.It doesn't matter what it is, but it does matter what you like.
E.Therefore, everyone can find a volunteering opportunity that suits their skills and interests.
F.However, you will volunteer longer in an organization that supports a cause you care about.
G.Volunteer on different days or ask for different tasks to see what other opportunities are out there.

Schools were quite bare, and the students 38 (have) tiring days, walking miles to get to school often barefoot. With their mountains
39 work at home, few 40 (possession) and little opportunity, these children were joyful,which I admired.
This 41 (be) my first time to live abroad in a different culture, simply getting used to the living conditions was 42 big adjustment. I had no electricity, running water, phone or the Internet. Imagine no air conditioning at a place 43 the temperature often goes beyond 38 degrees Celsius! Some days it was just too hot to move.
However, I could end each day with a 44 (glory) African sunset. And at night, I had a good view of the Milky Way. Before Namibia, I never thought I would survive in such an environment.

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
With busy life, it can be hard to find time to volunteer. However, volunteering brings you lots of benefits. The more you volunteer, the more benefits you will gain. Of course, volunteering does not have to involve a long-term commitment or take a huge amount of time out of your busy days.Giving in simple ways can not only help those in need but also improve your health and happiness.
One of the better-known benefits of volunteering is that it allows you to connect to your community, make it a better place and boast your social skills. Even helping out with the smallest tasks can make a real difference to the lives of people, animals and organizations in need. And volunteering is a two-way street: It can benefit you and your family as much as the others you choose to help.
Volunteering provides many benefits for both mental and physical health.Almost everyone has to fight against stress, anger and anxiety.The social contact aspect of helping and working with others can have a profound effect on your overall psychological well-being. Nothing relieves stress better than a meaningful connection to another person. Working with animals has also been shown to improve mood and reduce stress and anxiety.
Volunteering can also advance your career. If you are considering a new career, volunteering can help you get experience in your area of interest and meet people in the field. Even if you are not planning on changing careers, volunteering gives you the opportunity to practice important skills used in the workplace, such as teamwork, communication, problem solving, project planning, task management and organization. You might feel more comfortable stretching your wings at work once you have developed these skills in a volunteer position first.

9.B 推理判断题。根据文章第四段最后一句可知,研究人员指出,应该关注“能让志愿者为困难情况做好准备,或者为他们会遇到的问题提供应对策略的训练方法”。所以,通过来自Florida的研究可推知,志愿者应该从心理上做好充分的准备。故选B。
10.A 细节理解题。根据文章第五段中的Those people for whom the role of volunteer was most part of their personal identity would also be most likely to continue volunteer work.可知,那些志愿者的角色是他们个人身份的一大部分的人也最有可能继续从事志愿者工作。由此可知,志愿者身份的认可会激励他们继续从事志愿者工作。故选A。
11.A 主旨大意题。结合文章首段可知,文章是为想找志愿者的组织领导者提供意见,下文从两个方面展开,说明要了解人们做志愿者的动机,还要知道人们是依靠什么维持对志愿者工作的兴趣。由此可知,本文通篇围绕如何让人们去做志愿者这一话题展开。选项A“How to Get People to Volunteer”(如何让人们去做志愿者)贴合主题。故选A。
D

第二节
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文,介绍了作者大学毕业后到非洲当志愿者老师的经历,以及作者的感悟。
36.was sent 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:大学毕业后,我想在世界上有所作为,所以我成了一名志愿者教师,并被派往纳米比亚。此处叙述过去的经历,应用一般过去时,主语I与send之间为被动关系。故填was sent。
37.equally 考查副词。句意:因此我和一群同样急不可待的年轻毕业生踏上了旅程。设空处在句中修饰形容词eager,应用副词equally,表示“同样地”。故填equally。
38.had 考查时态。句意:学校里什么也没有,学生们整天都很累,常常光着脚走好几英里路去上学。由句中的were可知,这里用一般过去时叙述过去发生的动作。故填had。
39.of 考查介词。句意:虽然家里有堆积如山的工作,几乎没什么财产和机会,但这些孩子很快乐,这令我很钦佩。mountains of表示“很多的”。故填of。
40.possessions 考查名词复数。句意同上。few修饰可数名词复数形式,且possession意为“个人财产”时常用复数形式。故填possessions。
41.being 考查现在分词。句意:这是我第一次生活在国外不同的文化中,仅仅是适应(那里的)生活条件就是一个很大的调整。句中已有谓语was,所以逗号前面部分在句中作状语,这里是独立主格结构,be与其逻辑主语This之间为主动关系,因此使用现在分词形式。故填being。
42.a 考查冠词。句意同上。这里表示“一个很大的调整”,表示泛指,且big以辅音音素开头,所以用不定冠词a。
43.where 考查关系副词。句意:想象一下在一个温度经常超过38摄氏度的地方没有空调系统!分析句子结构可知,设空处引导定语从句,place为先行词,关系词在从句中作地点状语,因此填where。
44.glorious 考查形容词。句意:然而,我的每一天结束的时候都有非洲壮丽的晚霞。这里用形容词作定语,表示“壮丽的”。故填glorious。
45.placed 考查过去分词。句意:我的经历不仅让我意识到安放在我们自己身上的起限制作用的规则……。limitations与place之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词作后置定语。故填placed。
第三部分 写作
第一节
One possible version:
Dear Mr. Wilson,
I'm Li Hua from China. I'd like to work for your program.
As a teenage boy, I am good at English. I'm very interested in health topics and have read a lot of books and magazines about how to keep healthy. In addition, I have the experiences of giving health care lectures at our local care homes. I'm sure that the job will offer me a good chance to help those in less developed countries and enrich my life and the lives of those in need as well.
I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua
