4. Lucy used to go to bed late, ________ she
A. didn’t B. doesn’t C. hadn’t D. isn’t
【答案】A
【解析】“used to+动词原形”意为“过去常常做…”，变成反意疑问句时，附加问句可使用didn’t或 usedn’t.

I was born in Damyang, a beautiful place known for its bamboo forests in Korea. I spent much time in the forests painting pictures of the bamboo. Painting is one of my talents. I lived there until last year when my family moved to New York. My mother, a scientist, was asked to come work here.
“There are no bamboo forests,” I said , “there is nothing to paint in New York.” “Don’t worry, my dear daughter. You will find many things to see and paint there,” said my mother . “I will miss home,” I said. “Then you can paint pictures of your favorite places. They will make you feel at home,” she said. So when we moved, I brought my forest paintings with me.
New York was not easy at first. I missed home a lot. Yet when I looked at my paintings of bamboo, I felt much better. I soon found friends at school too. They also like painting, and we now paint in a group after school.
Last month, we had a new neighbor, Varvara, an old lady who moved from Russia, to be closer to her daughter. She was sad to leave her home. My mother and I often visited her. She told us her homesickness and everything about her hometown Vyborg. I could picture her home in my head.

A few days later, I met Varvara on the stairs. She looked better but still sad. I gave her my gift: a painting of Vyborg. I had painted it from her memories.
She began to cry as she saw the painting. At first , I was worried that she didn’t like it. Later, she told me that those were tears of joy. I knew just how she felt-wherever you go , hometown is always with you.

B
As a student, I was most afraid to answer questions in class, and I found that the students around were just like me. At the beginning of each class, when the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid that the teacher saw me.
One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions, but no one answered. “Let me tell you a story first ,” he said.
“When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a cardboard folded （折叠的）in half, wrote their names in bold with the most eye-catching color, and then placed the cardboard on the seat. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see and call a listener’s name directly.
“I couldn’t t understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people, who meant chances. When your answer was to his surprise, it meant he might give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that.”
After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance on the card.

6．C 细节理解题。从文中第二段第二句中的He wanted us to be active in class可知老师想让学生们在课堂上积极些。所以选C。

8．B 推理判断题。从文中第三段The students around me always took a cardboard folded(折叠的)in half,wrote their names in bold with the most eye-catching color,and then placed the cardboard on the seat.So when the speaker needed the answers from the students,he could see and call a listener's name directly.可知学生把写有自己名字的卡片放在座位的纸板上，因此演讲者可以在上面看见他们的名字，故选B。

I was born in Damyang, a beautiful place known for its bamboo forests in Korea. I spent much time in the forests painting pictures of the bamboo. Painting is one of my talents. I lived there until last year when my family moved to New York. My mother, a scientist, was asked to come work here.
“There are no bamboo forests,” I said , “there is nothing to paint in New York.” “Don’t worry, my dear daughter. You will find many things to see and paint there,” said my mother . “I will miss home,” I said. “Then you can paint pictures of your favorite places. They will make you feel at home,” she said. So when we moved, I brought my forest paintings with me.
New York was not easy at first. I missed home a lot. Yet when I looked at my paintings of bamboo, I felt much better. I soon found friends at school too. They also like painting, and we now paint in a group after school.
Last month, we had a new neighbor, Varvara, an old lady who moved from Russia, to be closer to her daughter. She was sad to leave her home. My mother and I often visited her. She told us her homesickness and everything about her hometown Vyborg. I could picture her home in my head.

As a student, I was most afraid to answer questions in class, and I found that the students around were just like me. At the beginning of each class, when the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid that the teacher saw me.
One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions, but no one answered. “Let me tell you a story first ,” he said.
“When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a cardboard folded （折叠的）in half, wrote their names in bold with the most eye-catching color, and then placed the cardboard on the seat. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see and call a listener’s name directly.
“I couldn’t t understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people, who meant chances. When your answer was to his surprise, it meant he might give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that.”
After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance on the card.
