二、阅读理解
Not only kids of Tiger Mums go to Harvard.
Dawn Loggins of Lawndale, N.C., is on her way to Harvard, one of the eight world-famous universities in the eastern US. Nobody encouraged her to study or paid for her special classes. This girl created her own future.
The teen was abandoned by her family last summer, when her parents and two sisters moved to Tennessee. She found herself homeless and had to spend the night on friends' sofas.
The school bus driver learned about Dawn's situation and invited Dawn to move in with her family. Soon, Dawn had a job at Bums High School. She worked from 6 a.m. to 7:40 a.m. before the first school bell rang. She swept floors and picked up trash again in the afternoons, before diving into her studies in the evenings.
Dawn's hard work paid off. She finished school with a 3.9 GPA and scored 2,110 on the SAT.
"There were times when I felt like it would be the easiest if I gave up" the 18-year-old said. "But it was never in me to give up, because I realized that I was never going to be successful unless I got an education."
Even before Dawn's family left her, she led a difficult life. Her family was poor and cups of noodles were often the only food. Dawn "studied by candlelight" because her parents couldn't afford to pay the electricity bill(电费).
Dawn has now reconnected with her family. They're proud of her accomplishments(成就) and are attending her high school graduation.
1. Why didn't Dawn give up her studies
A. To reconnect with her family.
B. To thank those who had helped her.
C. To get an education to be successful.
D. To realize her dream of going to Harvard.
2. Who helped Dawn when she found herself homeless
A. Her teachers. B. Her neighbors.
C. A Tiger Mom. D. A school bus driver.
3. What does the underlined word "abandoned" mean in Chinese
A.宠爱 B.抛弃 C.鼓励 D.虐待
4. Which of the following words best describes Dawn
A. Open-minded. B. Good-natured.
C. Strong-willed. D. Warm-hearted.
5. What's the best title for the text
A. Another Harvard girl B. A girl in candlelight
C. From homeless to Harvard D. The role of Tiger Mums
三、阅读下面的短文,用括号内所给词的适当形式填空。
One day, Confusions(孔子) led his students to the State of Chu. When crossing through a large forest, they saw an old man ①______ (stand) under a tree, catching cicadas(蝉) with a bamboo stick. Confucius said, "You are very good at ②______ (catch) cicadas. You must have some special skills."
"That's right!" the old man answered. "The cicada is a clever little insect. If they hear the noise of the leaves in the wind, they ③______ (fly) away. Therefore, people who want to catch cicadas ④______ (train) their hands to hold a bamboo stick without shaking. If you can place three pellets(弹珠) on top of the bamboo stick without falling off, you might be able to catch cicadas; when five pellets ⑤______ (place) on top without falling off, catching cicadas is as easy as ⑥______ (pick) a ball up from the ground." He then added, "But that is not enough. People must be good at hiding themselves. Right now, I ⑦______ (stand) under a tree like half of a tree stump (树桩). Last of all, one must be attentive(专心的). When I am catching cicadas, I only see their wings. No matter what ⑧______ (happen), nothing will disturb me." Hearing this, Confucius ⑨______ (turn) to his students and said, "No matter what you do, you can only succeed if you love what you're doing and pay enough attention to it. This is what this old man ⑩______ (teach) us."
答案以及解析
一、
1.答案：D
解析：考查代词的用法辨析。句意: —你喜欢李清照写的诗吗 —是的, 有点儿喜欢。但是我更喜欢杜甫写的那些诗, 因为它们能鼓舞我的斗志。it它; he他; she她; they他/她/它们。根据"those by Du Fu"可判断空处指代的是"那些诗", 故用they。故选D。
2.答案：B

4.答案：D
解析：考查代词辨析。句意: 我们什么东西也买不了, 因为没有一家商店开着门。all表示三者以及三者以上都; both表示两者都; nothing没有东西; none表示三者以及三者以上都不, 常与of连用。故选D。
