“I sometimes get up at three or four in the morning and I surf the net.”
“I often check my e－mail forty times a day.”
“I often spend more than three hours during one time on the net.”
“I spend more time in chat rooms than with my ‘real－life’ friends. ”

(2012·潍坊高一检测)I suppose that the most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen.Just listen.Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention.And especially if it's given from the heart.When people are talking，there's no need to do anything but receive them.Listen to what they're saying.Care about it. Most times caring about it is even more important than understanding it.Most of us don't value ourselves or our love enough to know this.It has taken me a long time to believe in the power of simple saying “I'm so sorry，”when someone is in pain.
One of my patients told me that when she tried to tell her story people often interrupted to tell her that they once had something just like that happening to them.Her pain became a story about themselves.Eventually she stopped talking to most people.We connect through listening.When we interrupt what someone is saying to let them know that we understand，we move the focus of attention to ourselves.When we listen，they know we care.
I have even learned to respond to someone crying by just listening.In the old days I used to reach for the handkerchiefs，until I realized that passing a person a handkerchief may be just another way to shut him down，to take them out of their experience of sadness.Now I just listen.When they have cried all they need to cry，they find me there with them.
This simple thing has not been that easy to learn.It certainly went against everything I had been taught since I was very young.I thought people listened only because they were too shy to speak or did not know the answer.But now I know that a loving silence often has far more power to heal than the kindest words.
46．What does the author value most in the communication with each other?
A．Deep understanding.
B．Saying “I'm sorry”．
C．Attention from heart.
D．Doing nothing.
47．The woman patient stopped telling her story to most people because ________.
A．she didn't get enough respect from others
B．she was discouraged by being often interrupted
C．people often told her their own opinions
D．people couldn't understand her sad situation
48．If you hand a handkerchief to someone crying，you may ________.
A．hurt his feelings
B．make him embarrassed
C．encourage him to continue to cry
D．stop him from letting out his sorrow
49．It can be inferred from the passage that while communicating，________.
A．listening is a perfect way to respond to others
B．people keep silent because they don't know the answer
C．keeping silent means being too shy to speak
D．it is easy to form the habit of listening silently
50．Which of the following might be the author's opinion about communication?
A．Keep silent.
B．Just listen.
C．Be careful.
D．Tell your own story.

(2013·湖南高考)Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.
AVOID BIG EVENTS Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct. )cost ￡169.15 at Booking. com. A week later, the same room cost ￡118. 15.
If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid—or you're looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as Whatsonwhen. com, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city，date and category.
STAY AWAY FROM THE STATION If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.
Don't be too choosy about the part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge's Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was ￡95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was ￡75.75. And at Farringdon，a double room cost just ￡62.95.
LOOK AFTER YOURSELF Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune，especially at weekends and during big events.As an alternative consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen. Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings. A great example is the historic O'Neill Flat on Edinburgh's Royal Mile，available for ￡420 for five days in late September, with room for four adults.
GET ON A BIKE London's ‘Boris bikes’ have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.
Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle (casual members pay around ￡1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or ￡5 per day)．
51．The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events may________.
A．help travelers pass time
B．attract lots of travelers to the UK
C．allow travelers to make flexible plans
D．cause travelers to pay more for accommodation
52．“Farringdon” in Paragraph 5 is most probably________.
A．a hotel away from the train station
B．the tube line to Covent Garden
C．an ideal holiday destination
D．the name of a travel agency
53．The passage shows that the O'Neill Flat________.
A．lies on the ground floor
B．is located in central London
C．provides cooking facilities for tourists
D．costs over ￡100 on average per day in late September
54．Cardiff's program allows a free bike for a maximum period 4 of________.
A．half an hour B．one hour
C．one hour and a half D．two hours
55．The main purpose of the passage is________.
A．to tell visitors how to book in advance
B．to supply visitors with hotel information
C．to show visitors the importance of self-help
D．to offer visitors some money-saving tips
Ⅳ.阅读表达(共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分)
(2013·天津高考)My name is Clara.I still remember that chilly December day，sitting in science class.I'd finished a worksheet early and picked up a TIME for Kids magazine.A piece of news caught my eye: NASA was holding an essay contest to name its Mars rover (火星探测器)．Before I even knew anything else about it，a single word flooded my 11-year-old mind：Curiosity.
I couldn't wait for the bell to ring so I could get started on my essay.That afternoon，I raced home，sat down at the computer，and typed until my fingers ached.“Curiosity is an everlasting flame that burns in everyone's mind...”
Five months later，my mom received a phone call，and immediately，a wide smile spread across her face.
On August 5,2012，at 10：31 p．m，the rover named Curiosity touched down safely on the surface of Mars，and I was honored to have a front-row seat in NASA.
Curiosity is such an important part of who I am.I have always been fascinated by the stars，the planets，the sky and the universe.I remember as a little girl，my grandmother and I would sit together in the backyard for hours.She'd tell me stories and point out the stars.Grandma lived in China，thousands of miles away from my home in Kansas，but the stars kept us together even when we were apart.They were always there，yet there was so much I didn't know about them.That's what I love so much about space.
People often ask me why we go to faraway places like Mars.My answer is simple: because we're curious.We human beings do not just hole_up in one place.We are constantly wondering and trying to find out what's over the hill and beyond the horizon.
56．How did Clara get the news about the essay contest？(no more than 10 words)

57．Why did Clara have a front-row seat in NASA? (no more than 10 words)

综合检测(一)
1．D 句意：据说在13世纪马可·波罗去爪哇岛的航行途中经过了太平洋。在江河、山脉、湖泊、海洋、群岛、海峡、海湾、运河等专有名词前要用定冠词the，因此第一空处的Pacific Ocean前面要用定冠词the；而第二个空后的名词century被序数词修饰，序数词前面应用定冠词the。故该题的正确答案为D。
2．A 句意：坐落在长江三角洲的中国最大也是最具活力的城市上海，正在国家经济中起着主导的作用。从句子结构看，逗号后为由which引导的非限制性定语从句，定语从句缺谓语。situate使位于；使处于，为及物动词，后需接宾语，不常用；be situated in/on/at坐落于/位于……；综上，选A项。
3．A 句意：外国友人最想参观的地方是长城，她是中华民族的象征，也是世界七大奇观之一。symbol符号、记号或象征，尤其指用有形实物代抽象的实体；sign符号、征兆、记号、手势、代表有固定意义的符号或标记；signal信号，被用作交通、通讯的指示或传递消息的一种手势；mark标记、斑点、痕迹、记号，为某一特定目的而做的标记或有意、无意留下的痕迹。综上，选A项。
4．A 句意：众所周知，2012年奥运会是在以大本钟著称于世的伦敦举行 的。be famous for因某物著称；be famous as作为什么而著称；be famous to对某人来说是著名的，因此选A项。
5．C 考查倍数表达法。此处是“倍数词＋the length/size/weight...＋of＋比较对象”结构，more than twice“两倍多”，答语的意思是“飞碟的翅膀是机身长度的两倍多”。
6．B 本题考查倒装句。句意：从拥挤的公交车上走下来一个高个子男人，他穿着一身黑色套服，向一位女士挥手。副词away，out，in，here，there等置于句首，且主语为名词时，主、谓语要全部倒装，故本题答案为B项。
7．D 考查有关control的固定搭配，据“but”可知Miss Li管不住学生，have no control over“对……控制不住”。
8．C 考查动词以及介词的辨析。expand扩大， 膨胀； differ不同； range(在……范围内)变化； tell告诉。句意： 虽然这些孩子的年龄从七岁到十三岁不等， 但他们有很多共同点。根据句意可知选C。此处考查了range from…to…。
9．B 句意：字典和在里面有书签的语法书籍是Jane的。第一个空是由that引导的定语从句，其先行词为books，故用复数形式。第二个空的主语为the dictionary，又因belong to无被动结构，故选B项。
10．B 根据句中的时间状语ever since判断，应该选择现在完成时的B项。
11．D 句意：在2012年，中国人民情绪高昂，因为许多令人激动的消息相继而来。step by step一步一步地；one by one一个接一个地；little by little一点一点地，渐渐地；one after another一个接一个，相继地。one by one等于one after another，不过one by one通常强调的是顺序，而one after another则强调数量。综上所述，本题答案为D项。
12．A 句意：在美国一些地方的口语中，单词结尾的字母r的发音通常被略掉。通过句意可知sounds和drop为被动关系，故排除B、D两项；另外，句子所提到的事情为一种现象，应为一般现在时。
13．C 考查主谓一致及时态。此处Chen Fang是主语，故用单数谓语动词；根据in a month可知用将来时。
14．C 分数短语做主语，谓语动词应和of后面的名词保持一致。deer可数名词，故谓语动词应用复数，deer与eat之间动宾关系，要用被动式。
15．A 空格前的部分为一个主从复合句，主句为There is little doubt ，that引导的是同位语从句，修饰doubt。反意疑问部分应该和主句一致，C、D两项可先排除。主句中有否定词little，所以反意疑问部分应使用肯定结构，故选A项。
【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。“无家可归的人”不只在发展中国家存在，在德国这样的发达国家同样存在。本文讲述了Kurt Muller夫妇如何在德国为“无家可归的人”提供各种各样的帮助，及如何向公司及公众发起为“无家可归的人”进行捐赠活动的事迹。
16．B 读文章第一段可知，无论何时我们听到“无家可归的人”，我们中的大部分人会想到发展中国家。但是事实是任何地方都有“无家可归的人”。四个选项中只有B符合题意。
17．D 根据常识我们知道德国不属于发展中国家，故排除B，又因为traditional“传统的”和typical“典型的”跟“无家可归的人”没有关系，故选D，即像德国这样富裕的国家也有“无家可归的人”。
18．C 由下文的“made sandwiches”可知，此空要用meals。
19．A 他们首次开始于一个漫长而炎热的夏天，在那时大部分德国人都离开家去度假了。这里是指他们开始帮助“无家可归的人”其他选项均不符合题意，故选A。
20．D “were away”指离开家。A：睡着；B：单独的；C：横过，在对面；D：离开。
21．B 根据前文可知，Kurt Muller夫妇没有去度假而是待在家里做三明治并且在街道上摆放了一张桌子，给“无家可归的人”提供食物。A：教育，培养，提出；B：摆放，竖起；C：放在一边；D：分发，泄露。
22．A 通读第二段可知，Kurt Muller夫妇发现只提供食物和衣服是不够的，“无家可归的人”还需要温暖和关心。necessary必要的；helpful有帮助的；expensive昂贵的，均不符合题意，故选A。
23．D 根据设空处前面的warmth，再根据下文所述，Kurt Muller夫妇把自己家的电话号码给了流浪者并且告诉他们可以在任何时候打电话，他们的家随时为他们开放可知选D项。caring关心，照顾，符合语境。
24．A hesitate to do sth.意为“做某事犹豫不决”。这里用否定形式表示Kurt Muller夫妇毫不犹豫地把电话号码留给流浪者。agree同意；pretend假装；intend打算，想要。
25．C 把电话号码留给流浪者之后，Kurt Muller的妻子Rita确保家里有人接听流浪者随时打来的电话。A：有意义，讲得通：B：发现，找到；C：确保，确信；D：算出，设计出。
26．A be open to对……开放，这里指Kurt Muller夫妇的家总是对任何在街上无法过夜的人开放。其他选项都不符合题意。
27．D 这对夫妇不久就花费了他们所有的时间和钱。cost花费，物作主语；waste浪费；take表示花费时常用it作形式主语。
28．B 根据上下文所述，可知Kurt Muller夫妇为了请求捐赠而去拜访食品公司和服装公司。A：支付；B：请求，要求；C：调查；D.贯彻，执行。
29．C 如今有三十多家公司定期地给这个事业捐赠食物及其他物品。completely完全地，彻底地；calmly冷静地，平静地，安静地；regularly定期地，有规律地；roughly粗糙地，粗略地。
30．C 这里是指志愿者帮助把这些捐赠物品发放到无家可归者手里。A、B、D三项均不符合题意。
31．A 社会大众也提供了衣服和钱，并且有一位鞋商捐赠了新鞋。donate捐赠；produce生产；design设计；collect收集。
32．B Kurt Muller夫妇说他们从街头流浪者那里得到的爱就是他们的报酬，由此可知设空处选payment(报酬，回报)。A：许可；C：方向；D：支持。
33．D 根据句意及上下文内容可知，设空处用expect(期望，指望)。
34．C 最后一句话包含有though引导的让步状语从句，尽管Rita承认常常感到劳累，她说她会继续她的工作。
35．B make a profit赢利；make a difference(对某人/某事物)有作用或影响；make a decision作决定；make a rule制定规则。根据语境，选B项。
36．C 考查推理判断。文章介绍了夏威夷的人口分布、海滩、农产品、机场、汽车租赁、购物等方面的信息，其读者显然是来此的观光游客。
37．C 考查数字推算。文章开头说夏威夷的面积是4,028平方英里，人口为148,677，平均每平方英里约为36.9人，即选C，大约37人。
38．C 考查句意猜测。在介绍夏威夷的气温时，文章说终年平均温度为华氏71度到77度，“在更高的地方水银柱有望会降下来”，其含义显然是C，因为水银柱的高度与温度有联系，水银柱下降说明此处的温度降低。
39．A 考查细节理解。关于在夏威夷的旅游工具，文章提到了机场、出租车和租赁车辆，而没有提到火车，故选A。
40．D 考查推理判断。文章提到在夏威夷的住宿价格从35美元到5000美元不等，由此判断选D，“在这座岛上住宿，你可能会付高价”。A项是文章倒数第二段直接提到的内容，不是“推断”；B项的电话号码不提供订餐；文章没有提到网球场，因此C项也不对。
41．B 这是一道归纳题，通过对文章第一段的分析可知，这些都是有电脑瘾的人常做的事。
42．C 根据The use of the Internet can be an addiction like drug use. People lose control of the time they spend on the Internet.确定答案。
43．D 根据Studies show that about 6% to 10% of Internet users become addicted. And people worry about the teens because the Internet is changing the playing field for some of them.They spend more time in cyberspace than in the real world of friends and family.确定答案。
44．C 这是一道分析题，根据所举的例子，我们可以分析出这名大学生对电脑严重上瘾。
45．A 这是一道分析题，根据短文最后一段，我们可以看出作者在呼吁和提醒青少年不要上网瘾。
46．C 细节理解题。从第一段第三、四句可知答案为C项。
47．B 细节理解题。从第二段前三句的内容可知这位女病人之所以不再向别人倾诉是因为她总是被打断，故选B项。
48．D 细节理解题。从第三段第二句中的until I realized that passing a person a handkerchief may be just another way to shut him down，to take them out of their experience of sadness可知选D项。
49．A 推理判断题。通读全文可推知A项正确。
50．B 推理判断题。通读全文尤其是第一段第一、二句以及第三段的第三句Now I just listen可知选B项。
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了去英国旅游时几个可以有效节省费用的方法。作者在文章中给出了一些建议。文章主题贴近生活，属于功能项目中的旅游和交通项目。
51．D 细节理解题。文章第二段中提到Brighton Comedy Festival的目的是举例说明“Big sporting events，concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room.”，即作者建议避免在一些重大节日期间出门旅游，因为住宿费用会增加。所以正确答案是D。
52．A 细节理解题。此段的大标题是“远离车站”，然后开始举例说明。根据“￡95.95，￡75.75，￡62.95”这三个数据的对比可知，离车站越近，价格越高，故最便宜的Farringdon很可能是远离车站的一个旅馆，所以正确答案是A。
53．C 推理判断题。根据第六段中的“As an alternative consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen...A great example is...”可以推断，有一些旅馆能够提供有厨房的公寓，而O'Neill Flat便是一个例子，所以正确答案是C。
54．A 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的“...and Cardiff(free for up to 30 minutes，or ￡5 per day)．”可知，Cardiff的该项计划允许免费用自行车的最长时限是30分钟，即half an hour，所以正确答案是A。
55．D 主旨归纳题。一般来说，考生只有通篇理解文章传递的信息，才可能概括出全文的主旨。文章的开头“Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.”总领全文，之后各段分别介绍了一些帮助节省旅游费用的建议，所以正确答案是D。

Ⅳ.阅读理解
(2012·山东高考)The Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place.Now it is an ecological disaster area.Nauru's heartbreaking story could have one good consequence－other countries might learn from its mistakes.
For thousands of years，Polynesian people lived on the remote island of Nauru，far from western civilization.The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798.He was the British captain of the Hunter，a whaling ship.He called the island Pleasant Island.
However，because it was very remote，Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first.Then whaling ships and other traders began to visit，bringing guns and alcohol.These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island.A ten-year civil war started，which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900.
Nauru's real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate(磷酸盐) on the island.In fact，it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate，which is a very important fertilizer for farming.The company began mining the phosphate.
A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground；it is a strip mine.When a company strip-mines，it removes the top layer of soil.Then it takes away the material it wants.Strip-mining totally destroys the land.Gradually，the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon.
In 1968，Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world.Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.
Unfortunately，the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars.In addition，they used millions more dollars for personal expenses.Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem－their phosphate was running out.Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing.By 2000，Nauru was almost financially ruined.Experts say that it would take approximately D|S433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.
1．What might be the author's purpose in writing the text?
A．To seek help for Nauru's problems.
B．To give a warning to other countries.
C．To show the importance of money.
D．To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.
2．What was Nauru like before the Europeans came?
A．Rich and powerful.
B．Modern and open.
C．Peaceful and attractive.
D．Greedy and aggressive.
3．The ecological disaster in Nauru resulted from ________.
A．soil pollution B．phosphate overmining
C．farming activity D．whale hunting
4．Which of the following was a cause of Nauru's financial problem?
A．Its leaders misused the money.
B．It spent too much repairing the island.
C．Its phosphate mining cost much money.
D．It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.
5．What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?
A．The ecological damage is difficult to repair.
B．The leaders will take the experts' words seriously.
C．The island was abandoned by the Nauruaus.
D．The phosphate mines were destroyed.

课时作业(一)
Ⅰ.1.ancient 2.birthplace 3.galleries 4.landmarks 5.symbol 6.sculptures 7.range 8.situated/located 9.project 10.civilisation
Ⅱ.1.A 考查非谓语作状语。face sth./be faced with面临；面对， 句子的主语Steven Jobs与face是主动关系，所以第一个空填facing, 与with连用时，需用faced.
2．C 考查非谓语动词。ranging...在此作伴随状语。
3．D 句意：据说我们正生活在信息时代，一个充满了新发现和巨大变革的时代。本题考查冠词的用法。第一空后的“信息时代”是由普通名词构成的专有名词，前面需用定冠词the；time表示“时代”时为可数名词，第二空处为泛指，表示“一个……的时代”。故答案选D。
4．D 考查名词辨析。句意：在中国桃是长寿的象征，常出现在生日聚会上。symbol象征；符号，符合句意。example例子，榜样；feature特点；mark记号，标记，均不符合句意。
5．D 考查时态。ever since意为“自从……”，常与现在完成时连用。
6．C 句意：尊敬的贵宾朋友们，欢迎来到我们学校，今天来参加学校50周年仪式的有来自国内和国外的校友们。这是一个“表语＋系动词＋主语”的全部倒装语序。
7．A 句意：三分之一的国土被树木覆盖，大多数的市民是黑人。分数或百分数＋of＋名词作主语，谓语与of后的名词一致，第一空填is；第二空前的主语是citizens为可数名词复数，故填are。
8．C 句意：Well Hotel坐落在湖泊那头一个安静的地方，远离主路。考查介词辨析。off距，离，到(远至某处)，离开。又如：The town is still five miles off.那小城尚在五英里以外。
9．B 句意：我们很幸运，一下公共汽车就找到了邮局，它就在公交车站的对面。correct正确的；opposite对面的；across在……对面，要用across the bus stop；straight直的。由句意可知选B。
10．D 本题主要考查词语辨析。本句为“It takes sb. some time to do sth.”句型。第一个空应选择动词，through和across均为介词，B、C两项应予以排除。第二个空应使用过去分词形式called或named，所以正确答案为D。
11．B 句意：在所有我养过的动物中，这两只狗对语言最敏感。此题考查介词的用法。此处of用来表示范围，在……之中。
12．C 句意：就在我们的房子前面有一棵一千年历史的大树。表示方位的介词短语置于句首且主语为名词(短语)，句子的主谓需全部倒装。
13．A situated意为“坐落于”，过去分词形容词化作定语修饰Qingdao。
14．D 答话者体现了分享对方快乐的方式，所以用I'm glad to hear that. That's very nice of you. 用于别人主动提供帮助而自己愿意接受时说的话。句意：——我们五一节在青岛过得很愉快。——哦，很高兴听你这么说。
15．D off表示“in the sea but not far from the coast”，而on表示“在……之滨/河畔”。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇故事情节较强的记叙文。文章讲述了“父亲如何履行自己曾对儿子许下的诺言”，故事生动、感人，极富吸引力。
1．B only to do sth.“结果却，不料”，作结果状语，表示该结果在主语的预料之外；现在分词作结果状语，表示由主句所产生的逻辑上的结果。 realize在脑海里经过思维“认识到，了解”；find在表面上就能“发现，看出”。
2．A 这四个选项都是英语成语，根据本段第一句an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened America判断，选择A项。
3．D 从意义上判断，“他想起了他曾对他儿子许下的诺言”；memorized是“背诵，熟记”。
4．A 从结构上分析，该句是省略了谓语动词的省略句，省略谓语之后，意义仍然清楚，如不省略动词，则使用第三人称单数happens。从意义上分析，可排除C、D项。
5．A 表示“流泪”，这几个动词都可能表示这种意义，但句式搭配不同，其表现形式分别为Tears fill his eyes；Tears come into his eyes；He bursts into tears。
6．B 从上下文意义判断，“他不停地想起他对他儿子许下的诺言”。
7．B 动词和动词短语是完形填空设项的重点之一。此题要分清这四项的不同含义。dig及物动词，“掘(土)，挖”；dig through“(为找……)在……里挖掘”；dig out “发掘出” ；dig into“钻研”。
8．D 从结构上分析，应该用现在分词作伴随状语，用and则表示并列，用said。
9．C Come on表示劝说，不耐烦，意为“得啦！来！”。
10．D 从词义上判断one line“一句话(台词)”，A项中的one word干扰性较大，它表示“一个词”，如用words 是正确的。
11．A “介词＋反身代词”有固定含义，for oneself独自地，亲自；by oneself单独地；of oneself自行地，自动地；to oneself 对(着)自己。
12．C 这四个词都有“活着的”之意，live仅用作定语，作表语用living，alive。living和alive在意义上有细微差别，living可作定语和表语，含有“本以为死了，然而还活着”；alive作表语和后置定语，其含义与dead相对应；lively“生动的，活跃的”。
13．D “在第38小时的时候，……”，序数词之前要用定冠词。
14．B 注意这四个词的区别：sound “(各种)声音” ；voice “(人们说话的)嗓音”；noise“(不悦耳的)噪音”；tone“(人们说话的)语气，语调”。
15．B 这是表将来的虚拟语气，主句中用would ＋动词原形，从下文的句子中也能找到类似的句子。
16．A 从意义上判断，“如果你来救我，他们也会得救”是条件状语从句，应该用if 引导，然而选项中没有if，when与if同义，引导条件状语从句。even if 引导让步状语从句。
17．C 此题包含一个固定句型：There are...left“还有……剩余下来”。
18．C 14...out of 33 意为：33人中有14人活下来。out of “从……里面”。特别注意此题中的介词与前面的left没有任何联系。如果没有意识到这点，极可能会选错。
19．D 从意义上判断，“房屋倒塌时，自然形成的三角空隙”。而make room，make space 意为“(有意识地)为……腾出空间”。
20．A 从上下文意义判断，此句为原因状语从句。
Ⅳ.【语篇解读】 本文属于节能环保类。作者通过讲述太平洋岛国Nauru由过去的平静美丽到后来的由于盲目开发磷酸盐矿及政府滥用资金而造成的生态灾难，警示其他国家要引以为戒。
1．B 事实细节题。根据文章第一段最后一句可知答案。
2．C 推理判断题。由文章前两段可知，Nauru是一个“beautiful”且“remote”的国家，再根据第五段的lovely island，可以推断出答案。
3．B 事实细节题。根据文章第五及第七段可知，磷酸盐矿是露天矿，开采时要去除表层土壤，取走想要的材料，完全破坏了土地，可爱的土地最终看起来像月球一样。90%的土地被破坏了，他们变得一无所有。
4．A 事实细节题。根据文章第七段“Unfortunately，the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars...By 2000，Nauru was almost financially ruined.”可知答案。
5．A 推理判断题。由文章最后一段倒数第二句，专家说将会花费大约433,600,000美元，需要20多年来修复该岛，故选A。
Ⅴ.1.We are faced with a serious problem at present. 2.My brother has a wide range of interests. 3.That is a small town situated south of Beijing. 4.She moved to London last May and has got a job on a newspaper ever since. 5.Opposite the school are two bookstores.

That day，his owner Ben Heimlich was working on his truck inside his garage when a spark ignited some fuel and caught fire.

(2013·四川高考)On a sunny day last August，Tim heard some shouting. Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.
Two 12-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search for a football. Once they'd rowed beyond the calm waters，a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water. The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore. But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.
Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.
“Everything went quiet in my head，” Tim recalls(回忆). “I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line.”
Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water. Every 500 yards or so，he raised his head to judge his progress. “At one point, I considered turning back，”he says. “I wondered if I was putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys，“Take down the umbrella！”
Christian made much effort to take down the umbrella. Then Tim was able to catch up and climb aboard the boat. He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong for him.
“Let's aim for the pier(码头)，”Jack said. Tim turned the boat toward it. Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat，and it began to sink. “Can you guys swim？”he cried. “A little bit，”the boys said.
Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier. Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs. Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys' faces.
“Are we almost there？” they asked again and again. “Yes，”Tim told them each time.
After 30 minutes, they reached the pier.
6．Why did the two boys go to the sea?
A．To go boat rowing.
B．To get back their football.
C．To swim in the open water.
D．To test the umbrella as a sail.
7．What does “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．The beach. B．The water.
C．The boat. D．The wind.
8．Why did Tim raise his head regularly?
A．To take in enough fresh air.
B．To consider turning back or not.
C．To check his distance from the boys.
D．To ask the boys to take down the umbrella.
9．How did the two boys finally reach the pier?
A．They were dragged to the pier by Tim.
B．They swam to the pier all by themselves.
C．They were washed to the pier by the waves.
D．They were carried to the pier by Tim on his back.

Ⅱ.1.C not a bit和not at all都是“一点也不”的意思。根据语境，应该用not a little，意思是“很，非常”。
2．B 句意：我确信，从资历、能力和经验来说，你非常适合我们心中的这个位置。in terms of“从……方面来说”符合题意。
3．B 考查时态和语态，由题意可知Oetzi是在1992年被发现。因此用一般过去时的被动语态。
4．C 考查主谓一致和词义辨析。主语中心词是Jones，是单数，所以谓语用单数形式；根据应答句中No wonder后的从句意思可知，此处指“去了某地(没回来)”，用have (has)gone结构，选C项。
5．D 分数表达中分子大于1时，分母需用序数词的复数形式，所以2/5应写为two fifths；当分数、百分数＋of＋名词作主语时，谓语动词与名词(land)保持一致，故选D项。
6．C 句意：四川省位于中国的西南部，覆盖面积485平方公里，在中国人口数量最大，它是中国其中一个面积最大的，最不容易到达的省份。________ in southwest China and ________ an area of 485,000 square kilometers with the largest population in China是定语修饰Sichuan Province，locate与它是被动关系，故用过去分词形式；cover与它是主动关系，故用其现在分词形式。
7．B on the other hand常被用来比较两个不同的事情或观点，常与on the one hand连用；for one thing常与and for another连用表示“一来……二来……”，常用来列举理由；in other words表示“换句话说”；as a matter of fact表示“事实上”。根据句意“我想得到一份薪水更高的工作，但从另一方面来说，我非常喜欢我现在的工作。”可知应选B项。
8．B 句意：和在线用QQ面试相比，亲自面对面地面试可以给人们提供更多可靠的信息。compare with意为“与……比较起来”，符合句意。
9．D 此题考查的是倍数＋as... as句型，第二个as和比较对象一起省略了。补充完整应该是where he get paid five times as much as in our school，故选D。
10．B 句意：如果您的电话在两分钟之内未被接听，建议您挂断后再拨打。操作说明常用一般现在时表达。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】一条聪明勇敢的德国狗带来了消防员，使主人家的房子得以避免被烧毁。
1．C 推理判断题。根据第一段的through winding roads to the house in an isolated area以及第四段中消防员迷路的语境，可知Ben的住所非常偏僻。
2．D 词义猜测题。根据后文的some fuel and caught fire可知燃料被点着，起火了，因此可推断ignite意为“点燃”。
3．C 细节理解题。根据第三段的But he suddenly remembered the dog was still in the workshop and ran back to fetch him.可知Ben跑回车库是为了救他的狗。
4．B 推理判断题。根据末段的having twice driven bears away when he was fishing.可知Buddy以前救过它的主人。
5．A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的said Officer Holloway at a ceremony to honor the dog.可知应选A项。
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。全文记叙了Tim成功地从海中解救了两个12岁男孩的故事。
6．B 细节理解题。由第二段的Two 12-year-old boys...search for a football.可知B项正确。
7．D 词义猜测题。文中第二段后三句意为：他们一把船划出静水区，绑在船上的沙滩伞就遇到了风，然后把船拖进了开阔的水域。这两个男孩慌了，尽力想划回海岸。但是他们不是大风的对手，船失去了控制。此处的it指的是the wind。本题易误选B和C，但water和boat都是在wind的作用下才产生力量，所以与两个男孩对抗的是the wind。
8．C 细节理解题。由第四段I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line.“我在尽力弄清楚如何以最近的路线游到男孩们那里”可知，此处Tim抬头是为了确认他与孩子们之间的距离。A项“吸入足够的新鲜空气”文章未提及，B项“考虑是否要返回去”，由下文可知只是作者一时的想法，而不是每次抬头都会考虑，D项“要求男孩们把伞放下来”是他游到男孩附近才说的，故均排除。
9．A 细节理解题。由倒数第三段中的．..Tim decided...to pull the boys toward the pier.可知男孩们是被Tim拖到码头边的。所以A项符合题意。
Ⅳ.1.I became interested in reading little by little.
2．Compared with/to cars，bicycles have many advantages.3.He took away the bag not belonging to him by mistake.4.This country now has a population of about 110 million. 5.Parents should have some control over what their children are doing online.
