Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
A
Healthy Habits,Healthy Body
Feeling tired lately?Has a doctor said he can't find anything wrong with you?Perhaps he sent you to a hospital,but all the advanced equipment there shows that there is nothing wrong with you.
Then,consider this:you might be in a state of subhealth(亚健康).
Subhealth,also called the third state or gray state,is explained as a borderline state between health and disease.
According to the investigation(调查)by the National Health Organization,over 45 percent of subhealthy people are middle-aged or elderly.The percentage is even higher among people who work in management positions as well as students around exam time.
Symptoms(征兆)include a lack of energy,depression(压抑),slow reactions,insomnia(失眠),agitation(焦虑),and poor memory.Other symptoms include shortness of breath,sweating and aching in the waist and legs.
The key to preventing and recovering from subhealth,according to some medical experts,is to form good living habits,alternate work and rest,exercise regularly,and take part in open-air activities.
As for meals,people are advised to eat less salt and sugar.They should eat more fresh vegetables,fruit and fish because they are rich in nutritional(营养的)elements—vitamins and trace elements(微量元素)—that are important to the body.
Nutrition experts point out that it is not good to eat too much at one meal because it may cause unhealthy changes in the digestive tract(消化道).They also say that a balanced diet is very helpful in avoiding subhealth.
36.According to this passage,which of the following is RIGHT?
A.When you are in a state of subhealth,you should stay home and keep silent.
B.When you are in a state of subhealth,you should go to see a doctor and buy some medicine.
C.When you are in a state of subhealth,you should have yourself examined in foreign countries.
D.When you are in a state of subhealth,you should find out the reasons and relax yourself.
37.Middle?aged people may be easy to feel subhealthy because________.
A.they have used up their energy
B.they have lost their living hopes
C.they have more pressure in life and work
D.they begin to get older
38.The key to preventing you from falling into a state of subhealth is that you should________.
A.work hard
B.sleep more
C.form good living habits
D.take more medicine
39.As for food,experts suggested that________.
A.we should never eat meat
B.we should have meals with less salt and sugar
C.we should eat less than usual
D.we should have meals without salt and sugar
40.The underlined word “alternate” in the sixth paragraph is closest in meaning to “________”.
A.arrange by turns B.take place
C.keep up D.take up
B
Schools now are almost all connected to the Internet.But some have more technology,and use it more,than others.For example,some schools use computers for activities like video conferencing to bring the world into the classroom.
And some classrooms are equipped with things like a Smart Board,a kind of interactive(互动的)whiteboard.Interactive whiteboards are large displays for presentations.They connect to a computer and can operate by touch.They can be used for documents or writing or to project videos.
Some teachers are trying creative new ways to teach with devices like iPods and mobile phones.But educators say the most important thing,as always,is the content.
Yet technology can have special importance in some cases.Cosmobot is a therapy(治疗)robot.It stands about half a meter tall and has a blue body and a friendly face with big eyes.
One child who works with it is six-year-old Kevin Fitzgerald.Kevin has developmental dyspraxia;he has difficulty moving his mouth and tongue.
He works with Carole Semango-Sprouse as he interacts with the Cosmobot during therapy for his condition.Here,he uses a set of buttons attached to a computer to make the silent robot move forward, backward or around in circles.Kevin's mother thinks the robot has had a calming influence, helping her son get along better with his friends.
Cosmobot was developed by AnthroTronix.Corinna Lathan started the company more than ten years ago to work with children with developmental disabilities.Children become friends with the robot, she says.That can have a big effect on their behavior, helping them work harder and longer in therapy sessions.Corinna Lathan is currently working with a British company to develop other socially helpful robots.She says they are still considered research tools in the United States, and not used as much as in places like Britain and Japan.But she hopes to change that.
41.We can learn from the passage that ________.
A.the Internet is now widely used in schools
B.most schools don't use new technology in
teaching now
C.the Internet is as important as textbooks in schools now
D.video conferencing will become widespread in the world soon

43.The underlined word“dyspraxia”in Paragraph 5 refers to“________”.
A.language barrier B.movement disorder
C.visual damage D.loss of memory
44.According to the passage, the Cosmobot ________.
A.is designed for children to play with

Dad often spoke about the experiences he had as a young man in World War Ⅱ.His favorite story, the one he told most often, was about the time he and some other soldiers captured some German prisoners of war.
Dad was part of George Patton's Third Army, Sixth Armored division that landed in Normandy on D-Day.A few days after that great battle, Dad and a few members of his unit were on patrol in the French countryside.Walking along the bush, they arrived at a clearing on a small hill at the same time two German soldiers did.Quickly, Dad and his fellow soldiers raised their guns.Outnumbered, the Germans surrendered their weapons.
“We should kill them right now,”said one member of Dad's unit.After what he'd seen at Normandy, Dad was inclined to agree.This was war, and these were enemy soldiers.But Dad hesitated.He ordered the soldiers to empty their pockets.One of the Germans held out a string of beads (珠子) and a cross.Dad took them from the soldier.The sight of the beads made him think twice.He handed them back to the man.Dad knew how to speak German, so he spoke to the man.“Pray for the war to be over, so we can all go home,”Dad said.The German was surprised.“You are not going to kill us?”Dad shook his head.“If you are not going to kill us, there are some more of us who want to surrender,”the German said.
Dad and the other American soldiers were surprised as Germans after Germans came out of their hiding place on the other side of the hill.There were 37 in all.They left behind their weapons:machine guns, heavy artillery (火炮), loaded and ready for action.If they'd killed the first two men, Dad and his partners would have been gunned down on the spot.
46.What did the author's dad and his partners do when they met some German soldiers?
A.They were on patrol.
B.They landed in Normandy.
C.They fought to occupy the top of the hill.
D.They marched to get to the destination.

49.What caused the author's father to make his final decision?
A.Seeing the string of beads.
B.Seeing the cross in the German's hand.
C.Knowing that other Germans were hiding there.

50.What can we infer from the passage?

Ocean waters are constantly under movement.But have you thought about the forces or reasons behind their movement? Do you know how they move? An ocean current is basically defined as a horizontal movement of seawater in the ocean.Some of the factors affecting the movement of ocean currents are the rotation of planet,temperature, wind and the gravitational pull of the moon.
Why do ocean currents flow? Although there might be various reasons for the existence or flow of ocean currents, the major ones are: the sun and the rotation of the earth.The sun affects the ocean by heating the atmosphere, creating winds and moving the sea surface through friction.This tends to drag the water surface along as the wind blows over it.Secondly, it affects the ocean by altering the density of the ocean surface directly by changing its temperature and its salinity (咸度).
The rotation of the earth also tends to affect the currents through the Coriolis force.This force makes water move to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere.It exists because the ocean water is affected by friction with the earth only at the seafloor,and because the eastward linear velocity (线速度) of the earth decreases from a maximum at the equator to zero at the poles.
The ocean currents carry a large amount of energy and this is directly related to the density of water.Many Asian, European and North American countries are currently conducting research on currents in order to assist people.
It is essential to have knowledge of the ocean currents to reduce the costs of shipping such as fuel costs.The knowledge was even more essential in the sail-ship era.A very good example of this is the Agulhas current, which long prevented Portuguese sailors from reaching India.
51.According to the passage, an ocean current ________.
A.is only affected by the rotation of planet
B.causes seawater to move in a flat and level way
C.will occur if the atmosphere is hot
D.causes seawater to move now and then
52.Ocean currents mainly have something to do with ________.
A.the rotation of the earth and the sun
B.the winds which are on the oceans
C.the gravitational pull of the moon
D.the salinity of seawater
53.What do we know about the movement of ocean currents from Paragraph 3?
A.They move from the right to the left.
B.Their speed decreases if the linear velocity of the earth increases.
C.They move from the east to the west.
D.Their directions are affected by the rotation of the earth.
54.Why do many countries carry out research on ocean currents?
A.To find out how they form.
B.To make use of the energy.
C.To affect the currents by force.
D.To check the density of water.
55.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?
A.Ocean currents do a great deal of good to sailing.
B.The Agulhas current stopped Portuguese sailors from reaching India.
C.Mastering knowledge about ocean currents is quite important.
D.Ocean currents help to reduce the costs of shipping.
Ⅳ.阅读表达(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)
阅读下面的短文,请根据文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的词数要求。)
[1]“Drink your milk.It's good for you!”You've probably heard that many times,and it's true.Milk contains calcium,which is a necessary nutrient(营养物)for keeping bones and teeth healthy and strong.The U.S.government even requires milk as part of the National School Lunch Program,saying that students should drink one cup of fat-free or low-fat milk at each meal.
[2]Last Thursday,however,a group of doctors asked the government to remove milk from the lunch program.The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine(PCRM)says,“Milk is high in sugar,high in fat and high in animal protein,”all of which have ________ health.The PCRM says there are better and healthier ways to get calcium such as eating beans,broccoli,cereals and tofu.Orange juice and soymilk that have calcium added to them also supply the nutrient.“One of the only reasons people talk about dairy,or promote(宣传)it at all,is because it is going to help build strong bones,”says Dr.Neal Barnard,president of the PCRM.But milk may not be the best way to get the calcium your body needs.
[3]Of course,calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth,but there are other things that affect your bone strength,such as genes,how much vitamin D you take in and getting an hour's worth of exercise every day.
[4]Some nutritionists disagree with the idea that milk isn't important.Keri Gans,a dietitian says,“I think it's irresponsible to take his beverage that children enjoy,especially among those who are unable to meet their nutrient needs for the day,and remove it from the lunch line.”
56.What is the use of calcium in our body?(no more than 10 words)
_________________________________________________________________

你的观点
……
要求:1.词数120~150;
2.内容充实,结构完整,语意连续;
3.书写须清楚、工整。
综合检测(四)
1.B so+主语+助动词表示同意前面的观点。so+助动词+主语表示前面肯定的情况也适用于后者。It is the same with...表示前句中的两种以上的情况也适用于后者。be true of表示“与……情况相同”。由句意可知后者同意前者的观点,故B项正确。
2.A 句意:我一想到前面的艰辛工作就感到沮丧。depressed感到沮丧的。
3.A 句意:作为一名演员,你必须利用自己的经验去塑造可信的角色。draw upon利用,凭借,符合句意。draw in(白天时间)渐短;draw up拟定(文件、计划等);draw back向后移动,撤回。
4.D regardless of不管,不顾。
5.B 句意:因为失业了,所以露西一直在考虑返回学校,但到目前为止她还没有决定。由语境可知“露西一直在考虑……”,更强调动作的延续性,故用现在完成进行时。
6.D 考查介词运用。be related to与……有关,有联系。
7.A 句意:参加派对的人都是他的支持者。present作形容词,表示“出席的,在场的”,常作后置定语;作动词时,意为“赠给,颁发”。由句意可知应选形容词present。
8.C 根据句意,此处应表转折,故选C。
9.A in addition to除……之外还……。
10.C 句意:当节食与体育锻炼相结合时才更有效。connect...with与……有联系;combine...with... 把……与……相结合。在when引导的时间状语从句中,如果从句的主语与主句的主语一致且有be动词时可省略从句中的主语和be动词,所以when从句中省略了diets are。
11.D 与journalist相对应的只能是report。
12.B make contact with与……取得联系。
13.A relief(焦虑、痛苦等的)减轻,消除,缓和。
14.C 考查time作连词的用法。句意:第一次见到她时,我认为她很好而且诚实。the first time可以引导时间状语从句,表示“第一次……时”。
15.D 由句意可知,石油“渗漏”已经有一段时间了,又因为发生在过去,故用过去完成进行时。
【语篇解读】 本文讲述了作者的一次虚惊一场的经历。在晚上睡觉的时候他从窗户上看到有个外星人模样的人经过,感到很害怕,并且拿照相机想把这些拍下来。后来证实是参加化妆舞会的父亲回来时的身影。这样一次虚惊一场的经历给作者留下了深刻的印象。
16.C be about to do sth.的意思是“即将,马上要做……”,不能和明确的时间状语连用,但可以和when引导的从句连用。
17.A 从后文中描述的作者恐惧的心理和前面的一句话“Who's there?”可以看出作者这样是大声问了一句。
18.A 从第四段的第四句“...and started to take pictures in the direction of the window.”可以看出作者是在窗户处看到了一个外星人样子的人。
19.C 从后面的一句话“I ran to my bed and pulled my blanket over my head.”可以看出作者此时非常害怕。
20.B 下文提到父母去了化妆舞会,可以判断出作者的大声求助也没有人应答。

22.D 从本段的第五句话“Soon the footsteps...”可以看出这里作者听到的是脚步声。
23.A 从上句的“started to take pictures”可以看出作者从抽屉里拿的是照相机。
24.C die out“消失,灭绝,熄灭”; drop off“下降,减少,睡着,入睡,让(……)下车,把……放下”;turn away“走开,把脸转过去”; come down“下降,跌价,败落”,根据句意C项合适。
25.C 从下句的“I went back to my bed,...”可以看出作者是等脚步声消失了又回到了床上。
26.B 从上下句的语境可以看出作者此时是“满脑子的想法”,所以很长时间也不能入睡。
27.D 从下一句的“I found some footprints outside my bedroom window.”可以看出作者是去把这件事做一番调查。
28.D 从后面的“...the same size as my father's shoes.”可以看出作者是测量了一下这些脚印。
29.A 从最后的结局可以看出这些脚印就是父亲的脚印,所以应该是exactly。
30.B 从下文中可以看出,父亲根本没有进屋,所以其它几个选项都不合适,只有door合适。
31.A 从下文可以看出,作者是把这些胶卷拿去冲洗。
32.A 从“They were black...”可以看出。
33.C 从下半句“I started laughing too”可得知正确答案。
34.B be dressed up as“装扮为……”。
35.A 从最后一段的前两句话可以看出作者晚上看到的是自己的父亲,所以最后感慨的是“自己惧怕的正是自己的父亲”。

37.C 推理判断题。本段主要介绍了中国为实现可持续发展而采取的一系列措施。其中包括发展电动汽车和高铁,因此高铁是低碳交通工具,故C正确。
38.D 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“First...Besides...Finally...”我们可知政府正在设立高的标准减少碳的排放,节约和再利用资源,进行能源保护。所以D项正确。
39.A 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“That is no small task,but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product industries.”可知利用有限的资源来满足日益增长的人口的需要并不是一件易事,但它为可持续性产业(的发展)提供丰富的新的机遇。所以A项正确。
40.D 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed,and that we must be able to develop in sustainable(可持续的)ways.”和第二段中的“Today,sustainable development is a popular trend in many countries.”以及最后一段中的“...it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product industries.”可知本文的目的是积极地倡导可持续性发展。所以D项正确。

Dear_Denis,
I'm glad you'll come to China to learn Chinese. Chinese is very useful and interesting, and many foreigners are learning it now.
Chinese is quite different from English. First, you'd better remember as many Chinese characters as possible. Then add characters together to form words so that you could have a good study of phrases and sentence patterns. Next is communication. Watching TV and listening to the radio are good ways to practise your listening. It's important to do some reading and writing, too.
If you have any questions, please tell me. I'm willing to give you help at any time.
Looking forward to seeing you soon in China.
Yours,
Li_Hua

Ⅳ.阅读理解
Remember how great exercise was when you were a little kid!Back then,racing around the playground or skipping rope for hours,you weren't thinking fitness,you were thinking entertainment. But in this age of high-tech home equipment and underused gym memberships,the simple joy of jumping rope has been forgotten. Rediscovering it will give you a total-body exercise you can find.
Although considered an excellent form of exercise,jumping rope has never gained widespread acceptance because of two fundamental reasons. First,most people recognize jumping rope as an excellent form of cardiovascular (心血管的) exercise,but they also believe that it is simply too difficult. In other words,they don't think they'll be able to continue jumping for the near 20 minutes that it takes to achieve a beneficial physical outcome. Second,many view it as somewhat boring and overly repetitive—not as something fun or enjoyable.
As a matter of fact,jumping rope can be great fun if you find a proper way to practice it. Instead of doing the usual two-foot bounce over and over again,people good at rope-jumping often change their pattern every 10 or 20 jumps. A single bounce,a double-bounce,a skip,a knee-up,side swings as well as a variety of other easy-to-learn free-style rope-jumping.
Now researchers are learning that jumping rope also prepares the brain for learning. It is an exercise allowing both brain hemispheres to perform in parallel to each other. In short,jumping rope can be a life-long activity requiring little equipment,time and space,yet leading to a much healthier life.
1.From the first paragraph we learn that________.
A.jumping rope has faded from people's memories
B.people now have more advanced equipment
C.racing around the playground was preferred
D.people now like to have exercise in a gym
2.Rope jumping has not spread widely because________.
A.it benefits the cardiovascular system
B.it is neither easy nor enjoyable
C.it is considered boring and repetitive
D.it requires little equipment,time and space
3.The first sentence in the 3rd paragraph implies_______.
A.there is only one proper way to follow
B.the usual way should not be used
C.the easiest way is always the best
D.there are many ways to follow
4.According to the researchers,jumping rope________.
A.only prepares the brain for learning
B.is suitable for students only
C.helps both brain hemispheres work together
D.can be dangerous for old people
5.What is the author's attitude towards rope jumping?
A.He is arguing against it.
B.He is in favor of it.
C.He is sitting on the fence of it.
D.He is not clear about it.

Ⅱ.1.B 句意:如果被发现在办公室吸烟,任何人都将立即被罚款200元。if引导的条件状语从句中find用在被动语态中,考查find sb. doing,smoking在句中作主语补足语,表示某人被发现正在吸烟,故选B。
2.C 考查非谓语动词。句意:已经好多年没有见我的表妹了,我几乎记不起她的面容了。句子主语I与see在逻辑上为主谓关系,应用主动形式,排除B、D两项;having done的否定形式是在前面加not,故选C。
3.A 句意:这位大学生尽管在一个大城市长大,但他对乡村生活有更大兴趣。raise为及物动词,意为“抚养,养育”,符合句意。
4.D 句意:听到她妈妈已经走了,她突然大哭起来。因为题干中为tears,故用into,构成burst into tears;若选out,应为burst out crying。故此题答案应选D。
5.C 句意:洪水后,大量的食物和帐篷被运往海南省。表示“许多,大量”的四个选项中只有C项既能修饰可数名词又能修饰不可数名词,根据food and tents,可选择C项。A、D两项只能修饰可数名词,B项只能修饰不可数名词。
6.D 考查名词辨析。句意:小学生在校时间每天被限制到只有六个小时。因为time为不可数名词,故用amount。
7.B 第一个空“举起手”用及物动词raise,第二个空“站起来”应该用不及物动词rise。
8.B 句意:过街时你一定要小心车辆,不然你就会被车撞伤。knock与其逻辑主语you之间是动宾关系,故应用被动语态,排除A、D两项。knock..over意为“撞伤,撞翻”;knock off意为“撞落,撞下”。根据题意答案应选B。
9.C 句意:在德克萨斯州和东南部,夏天和秋天有时会有暴风雨。from time to time意为“不时,有时”,符合句意。at a time每一次;on time准时;at the time在那时。
10.D 句意:所有在事故中被发现受伤的乘客立刻被送入了附近的医院。found injured在句中作定语修饰passengers,原句相当于All passengers who were found injured in the accident...所以用过去分词found;injured是过去分词作主语补足语,与被修饰的名词passengers为动宾关系,故用过去分词。
11.B 答语句意:我真后悔这样做了。regret having done后悔做了某事。regret to do 很抱歉……,根据句意选B。
12.A 考查形容词、副词的用法。句意:失败伤害成年人的心,同样也伤孩子的心,但是,如果你学会利用失败,就会给你的生活带来积极的贡献。alike“同样地”;likely“可能”;actively“积极地”;similarly“相似地”。
13.D 句意:意识到了自己的错误,这个小孩子祈求我原谅他偷我的钱这件事情。forgive sb. for(doing) sth.意为“原谅某人(做过)某事”,符合语境语义。A、B、C三项分别意为“责骂”、“责备”、“惩罚”,均与题意不符。
14.C 此题考查副词短语在语境中的应用。句意为:户外工作可能意味着过多的阳光暴晒,因而可能会导致皮肤癌。故in turn“转而”符合题意。in nature本质上,事实上;in return作为回报;in fact事实上,均不得体。
15.A be about to do...when...表示“刚要……这时突然”的意思。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文中作者叙述了自己的变化。开始作者是一个以自我为中心的人,结果她成了孤家寡人。她试着跟同学交流,为他们提供帮助,后来交了一些朋友,其中有两个直到现在还是她最好的朋友。而她态度发生变化的一个较大原因是她跟一位老太太成了朋友。老太太把她当成了自己的女儿,作者与其建立了深厚的友谊。通过这些经历,作者感觉自己比以前好多了,她更喜欢现在的自己。
1.B 联系第一句中的I have really changed以及下文的例子可知作者是先为别人考虑,再考虑自己。即在为自己考虑前,先考虑的是别人,故用before。
2.C 联系第一句中的I have really changed以及下文作者由独自一人到交了朋友,由以自我为中心,到变成了一个帮助别人的人,可知作者发生了很大变化,因此可知作者很高兴自己变成了一个和以前不一样的人,故用different。famous“著名的;出名的”,simple“简单的;朴素的”,skilled“有技能的;熟练的”,均与语境不符。
3.D 联系第一句中的changed以及下文所描述的作者发生的变化,可知作者的“变化”开始于上大学时。

7.C 联系空后的“我”开始问周围的人过得怎么样,问他们是否需要帮助,可知作者在试着与别人交流。experiment在本句中意为“尝试”。argument“争论;辩论”,game“游戏”,defence“防御;护卫”,均与语境不符。
8.B 联系空格前的trouble以及空格后的help,可知作者问别人是否有麻烦,然后“主动提供”帮助。
9.D 联系以前作者不与人说话,宁愿独处,现在开始主动与别人交流并想提供帮助,可知这样做对作者来说已经是迈出了一大“步”。
10.C 联系空格前的several new friends可知作者的两个最好的朋友就在“several new friends”之中,空格处为避免重复,用代词them“他们”代替“several new friends”。
11.A 联系上文的描述,作者主动与人沟通,主动帮助别人,这些显示的都是作者对人、对事的“态度”发生了变化,故此空用attitude。
12.A 联系下文的she thought I was her daughter可知老太太把作者当成了自己的女儿,可推测作者与这位老太太成了“朋友”。partner“伙伴”,guide“向导”,guest“客人”,均与语境不符。
13.B 联系空格后老太太认为作者是自己的女儿,可知见到作者就很“高兴”。
14.C 联系空格后的“I took her place”可知老太太的亲生女儿从没来“看过”她,visit“拜访”符合语境。
15.D 联系空格后作者的感受“使别人感觉好也就是使自己感觉好”可知这是作者通过这次经历“明白”的一个道理,故用see。本题考查的是熟词新义,see在句中意为“明白”。其他三个选项,explain“解释”,guess“猜”,declare“宣布”,均与语境不符。
16.B 老太太去世,作者肯定会感到很伤心,故选heartbroken“心碎的”。其他三个选项,homeless“无家可归的”,bad-tempered“坏脾气的”,hopeless“无望的”,均与语境不符。
17.C 联系作者在上文的描述,自己交了朋友,也帮助别人,可知作者感觉自己比以前“好”多了。
18.A 作者希望自己不会“忘记”这些经历。其余选项,face“面对”,improve“提高”,analyze“对……进行分析”,均与语境不符。
19.D 这些经历“教会”了作者要更多地关心别人,而不是自己。force“强迫”,prefer“偏爱”,order“命令”,均与语境不符。
20.B 联系第一段中的“I am happy that I am becoming a different person.”可知作者很“喜欢”现在的自己。miss“思念;错过”,wonder“困惑;想知道”,expect“期待;预计”,均与语境不符。

4.C 考查细节理解。由第四段中“It is an exercise allowing both brain hemispheres to perform in parallel to each other.”可知:可以使两个大脑半球同时工作。
5.B 考查主旨大意。从作者介绍跳绳的好处可以看出作者支持跳绳运动。
Ⅴ.1.Scarcely had she heard the sad news when she burst out crying. 2.Her husband died ten years ago, leaving her and three children to look after.

Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate (照亮) me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share.
When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say, “Let's start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.
When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We_gave_London_to_each_other.
For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, some times in a funny way, in the other's dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think, “Yes, I must tell...” We have never met.
It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of psychologist, who will only fill up the healing silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.
1.In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to________.
A.become serious about her study
B.go to her friend's house regularly
C.learn from her classmates at school

A.our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of us

D.we parted with each other in London
3.According to Paragraph 4, the author and her friend________.
A.call each other regularly
B.have similar personalities
C.enjoy writing to each other
D.dream of meeting each other.
4.In the darkest moments, the author would prefer to________.
A.seek professional help
B.be left alone
C.stay with her best friend
D.break the silence
5.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Unforgettable Experiences
B.Remarkable Imagination
C.Lifelong Friendship
D.Noble Companions
B
Americans are famous for being friendly to people. Their friendships, however, tend to be shorter and more casual than friendships among people from other cultures. It is not uncommon for Americans to have only one close friend during their lifetime, and consider other “friends” to be just social acquaintances (泛泛之交). This attitude probably has something to do with American mobility and the fact that Americans dislike to be dependent on other people. They tend to “compartmentalize”(划分) friendships, having “friends at work” “friends on the softball team” “family friends” and so forth.
Because the United States is a highly active society, full of movement and change,people always seem to be on the go. In this highly_charged atmosphere, Americans sometimes seem abrupt(无礼的) or impatient. They want to get to know you as quickly as possible and then move on to something else. Sometimes, they ask you questions that you may feel very personal. No insult is intended; the questions usually grow out of their true interest or curiosity, and their impatience to get to the heart of the matter.
And the same goes for you. If you don't understand certain American behavior or you want to know more about them, do not hesitate to ask them questions about themselves. Americans are usually eager to explain all about their country or anything “American” in which you may be interested. They explain so much in fact that you may become tired of listening. It doesn't matter because Americans tend to be uncomfortable with silence during a conversation. They would rather talk about the weather or the latest sports scores, for instance, than deal with silence.
On the other hand, don't expect Americans to be knowledgeable about international geography or world affairs, unless those subjects directly involve the United States. Because the United States is geographically distant from many other nations, some Americans tend not to be aware of what goes on in other parts of the world.
6.According to the passage, Americans' attitude towards friendship is________.
A.it is unusual to have only one close friend
B.more informal than that in other countries
C.to regard all friends as only social acquaintances
D.to divide friends into several grades
7.The words “highly charged” (Paragraph 2) most probably mean________.
A.extremely expensive
B.much cheerful
C.highly responsible
D.full of mobility and change
8.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Americans know a lot about international affairs.
B.Friendships among Americans tend to be more formal.
C.Americans always seem to be on the move.
D.Americans like to cooperate with other people.
9.It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A.Americans want to take part in all kinds of activities
B.curiosity is the major characteristic of Americans
C.Americans do not know how to deal with silence
D.Americans' characters are influenced by their social and geographical environments

9.murmured 10.flee
Ⅱ.1.B regret doing意为“后悔做过某事”,由sad可知答案。
2.D 句意:这两个朋友相互之间的联系越来越密切。keep in touch with意为“保持联系”。
3.D bring... to mind使……想起;想起,为固定搭配。句意:我似乎想不起那个地方的名字。
4.A 考查term构成的短语。be on good terms with sb.意为“与某人交情好”;in terms of表示“就……而言,在……方面”;in the long term表示“从长远来看”;on his terms表示“依照他的条件”。根据句意可知A项正确。
5.D ashamed为形容词,意为“羞愧的,惭愧的”be ashamed of doing sth.意为“因做某事而感到羞愧”。shame为名词,意为“(因做错事感到的)羞愧”。
6.C belong to作谓语动词时,没有被动语态和进行时态。没有belong by这个短语。句意为:永远记住,无论你捡到什么,必须还给它的主人。
7.B not to mention表示“更不用说”,一般用于肯定句之后,后面加名词或v.-ing形式;leave alone“不管,不干扰,不干预”;except for“除了……”;but for“要不是”。根据句意选B。
8.B without引导虚拟语气句。根据语境可知与过去事实相反,因此句子用would +have done。句意为:孩子的父母感激地说:“要不是这位先生帮助,我们的儿子早就死了。”

3.C 由第四段内容可知,我和我的朋友写了四年的信,由此可推断都喜欢互相写信。
4.B 由第五段可知。
5.D 全文讲述了朋友在自己成长过程中的重要作用。文中的每一种友谊都不是终生的,故C项不对。
6.B 推理判断题。由文章第一段第二句可以推知美国人对待友谊较为随意,不太正式。
7.D 词义猜测题。认真阅读并分析其所在句及前一句可知,该词组是对前面一句话内容的概括,由此可见应表示“充满流动性和变化的”。
8.C 推理判断题。由文章第二段首句中的“...people always seem to be on the go”.可知答案。
9.D 推理判断题。由文章第一段第四句可知,美国人对待友谊的态度可能与美国人的流动性以及他们不喜欢依赖别人有关;由第二段首句可知,美国是一个充满活力、充满流动性和变化的社会。这一切都表明美国人的性格受社会影响。文章最后一句表明美国人的性格也受其地理位置的影响。故D项正确。其他三项内容与文章不符。
Ⅳ.1.Without the help of my friends, I wouldn't have finished my task on time. 2.I found him smoking when I entered the bedroom. 3.Not having been invited to attend the party, I felt very sad. 4.I went through my drawer carefully, but I could not find my keys. 5.I wonder if you are helping us from the bottom of your heart.
