2. D 根据文章最后一段可以得到提示:“When life gives you a kick, let it kick you forwards!” 当生活给你一个打击,你就借势向前。
3. A 海明威通过这个“厄运”学到了一些东西。学到了 / 学会了要用learn表达。
4. B 从第四段最后一句“Hemingway did rewrite the stories and eventually became a world-famous writer.”可知在他丢书稿的时候他尚未成名,所以是在努力(struggling)当中。

4.读写任务
阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文:
Hi, I am Mike! Personally, I prefer to study alone. I find studying alone more challenging and exciting.
Each time I come up with an idea after long time thinking, I feel a great sense of achievement. Studying alone also allows me to develop independent thinking which is a very important skill I need as I grow older and must solve the problems myself without the help of parents and teachers. Our teachers often encourage us to study in groups. I enjoy my friends' company, but in-group study, I find we spend far less time studying and more time playing games and having fun. It is for these reasons that I believe the most effective way to learn new knowledge is by studying alone.
[写作内容]
学校最近组织了一次中关学生交流活动,你参加其中的“合作学习”讨论:听完Mike的发言之后,你准备写一份发言稿,题目是“My View on Our Study”,内容要点包括:
1、以约30个词概括短文的要点:
2、以约120个词谈谈你对同学间是否必要合作学习的看法,并包括下面要点:
1)你对Mike的观点的评价;
2)你赞成哪一种学习方式,合作学习还是单独学习?
3)你以前采取什么学习方式,比较你先后采取两种学习方式上的变化及不同结果。
[写作要求]
1.作文中可使用自己的亲身经历或虚构的故事,也可以参照阅读材料的内容,但不得直接引用原文中的句子;标题自定。
2.作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。
[评分标准]概括准确,语言规范,内容合适,篇章连贯。

1.写作有可能用到的主要短语和单词:热情enthusiasm, 合作学习study in groups,单独学习study alone。
2.本文的概要必须包含以下要点:I prefer to study alone. I find studying alone more challenging
and exciting. / I believe the most effective way to learn new knowledge is by Studying alone.
3.本文要注意,概要一定要根据文段的时态来写。同时,绝对不能抄袭原文的句子。文章是谈你对同学间是否必要合作学习的看法,属于评论性文字,故多用一般现在时或一般将来时态。但你以前采取何种学习方式属于经历,必须使用一般过去时态。

答案:
The Best Way to Learn
In Mike's speech, we know that he likes to study alone because studying alone is the most effective, more challenging and exciting way to learn new knowledge.
Personally I like studying in groups. When studying in groups we can learn from each other, share our experiences in solving difficult problems and learn more in less time.
In the past I seldom had the confidence to discuss study topics with my classmates. I also had little enthusiasm for studying as I found it very boring. But following my teachers' advice I joined a study group and to my surprise my performance in class was improved greatly. Studying became more enjoyable and something I looked forward to doing, as I was able to learn from as well as help others. So for me, studying in groups is by far the most effective way to learn.

B、阅读理解
A
The American humorist,Will Rogers,used to say,“All I know is what I read in the newspapers”.This was an exaggeration for humorous purposes,but it is true that newspapers are an important source of information.Many people begin their day by reading the paper.In this way they learn what is going on in the world.Sometimes,however,they don't have time to read the news carefully and must be satisfied with a quick look at the front page;at other times they may be in such a hurry that they have time only to glance at the headlines.
There are newspapers to satisfy every reader.In the big cities there are many types of papers,with several different editions every day.In small towns there are fewer newspapers and perhaps only one edition each day.In some areas the paper is printed weekly.
Most newspapers have several sections,especially on Sundays when the edition is larger than usual.There are,in addition to the front page with the most important news,the sports section,the society page,the comics,the amusement section,a business page,and the editorials.
Another type of publication which helps keep the population informed is the magazine. Some magazines are published weekly,others are put out monthly.There are news magazines,literary magazines,and magazines for such special interests as photography,sports,art,and music,Some are primarily for men,others for women,and there is a selection of children's magazines,too. In the United States, there are publications for every taste and interest.
1. The fun_ction of a newspaper is______________.
A. to help people to begin their day by reading it
B. to satisfy every reader
C. to get people well informed of all kinds of news
D. to provide its readers with many sections
2. The purpose of headlines is______________.

B
Newspapers in Great Britain vary greatly in their ways of carrying the news. There are serious papers for those who want to know about important happenings everywhere, both at home and abroad. There are popular newspapers for those who prefer entertainment to information.
The London newspaper that is best known outside Great Britain is probably the Times. It began in 1785, and has a high reputation for believable news and serious opinions on the news. It calls itself an independent paper, which means that it does not give its support to a particular political party. Its leading articles give the opinions of the editors, not those of the owners of the paper.
Letters to the editor are printed in the newspaper. These parts of the Times are always interesting. Most of the letters are serious subjects. But from time to time there will be long letters on the subject which is not at all serious, perhaps on a new fashion of dress, or the bad manners of the young people, compared with manners of thirty years ago.

参考答案与提示
I、听力原文:
A、听力填空题:听下面一段短文,填入所缺的词。
No country in the world has more daily newspapers than the USA. There are almost 2,000 of them, as compared with 180 in Japan, 164 in Argentina and 111 in Britain. The quality of some American papers is extremely high and their views are quoted all over the world. Famous dailies like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerful influence all over the country. However, they are not national newspapers in the sense that The Times is in Britain or Le Monde is in France, since each American city has its own daily newspaper. The best of these present detailed description of national and international news, but many tend to limit themselves to state or city news.
??? As in other countries, American newspapers can be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that the American press serves its country well and that it has more than once courageously exposed political scandals(丑闻) or crimes, for instance, the Watergate Affair(水门事件). The Newspapers drew the attention of the public to the horrors of the Vietnam War.
