A
My dad was in the hospital battling a serious disease when he was rushed to the operating room.After a hurried talk with Dad's doctors，Mother told my sister and me the worst.
Throughout my childhood，my father had survived many serious medical problems，including a heart attack and cancer.He'd seen the four walls of the hospital room more times than anyone should have to.“Lord，” I prayed，“please save him.We can't live without him.” Dad pulled through.As soon as he felt better，he told us something amazing about that day in the operating room.
“I was scared.I knew I was dying，”he said.“I moved my head to one side and watched the nurses preparing for the operation.Beyond them I saw a large window which was open.Out of it was a lighted cross.My eyes were fixed upon it.My fears died out.I had the strength to beat the disease and I believed my operation would be successful.The operation started，and then I didn't know anything.”
Dad recovered fully and several months later he went to call on a friend at the same hospital.There he looked around for the cross he'd seen.He couldn't find it.He ran into one of the nurses who had taken care of him.“Can I take a quick look at the operating room where I had my operation？” he asked.The room was free so she took him in.My father was very surprised.There were no windows in the room，and the four walls were solid through and through.Why did he see the cross? It was really amazing，but I think he must have had hallucinations (幻觉)at that time.
36．After talking with the doctors，the author's mother
________.

This is the story of my dog called Shandy.He was my favorite pet and he was very lively.His main passion in life was to be taken for a long walk，ending with a big run out in his favorite park.
I would try to take him on this walk every day，weather permitting.The park itself was about three miles away from our house.To reach the park we had to cross a number of busy roads，and he would never pull or misbehave.He knew where we were heading and seemingly did not want to risk being taken home before he reached his dream destination.
But because of my work I had to rent a flat near the coast in Devon.It was nearly a hundred miles away from my home.This obviously meant I was no longer in the position to take Shandy on his walk.I spoke to my parents，who comforted me that they would continue to take him on the walks.
Two weeks after I had left，I had a phone call from my mother.She was panicking(惊慌)，saying that Shandy had managed to escape from the back garden and that she could not find him.She insisted that she had been looking for hours but that there had been no sign of him.I was quite worried and thought about where he might have gone，“Have you been taking him on his walks to the park every day？”I asked.She replied，“Most days.”I asked her to try at the park.“He would not be there；it's miles away，”she said.I again asked her to try there because running in the park was his habit.Luckily he was there quite happily sniffing(闻) around，unaware of the panic(恐慌) he had caused.

A holiday is any day when people lay aside their ordinary duties and cares.The word comes from Old English.At first，holidays honored some holy events or persons.People in Great Britain and other countries speak of holidays as Americans speak of vacations.
Every nation has its special holidays.China observes_New Year's Day (January 1)，May Day and National Day as legal (法定的) holidays，as it was on Oct.1,1949 that People's Republic of China was founded.The Chinese have long celebrated the Chinese lunar year.In the United States，congress has declared several as legal days such as New Year's Day (January 1)，Martin Luther King，Jr.'s Birthday，Washington's Birthday，Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day and so on.Some holidays celebrate special events in the development of a country，such as Greece's Independence Day，Italy's Liberation Day and India's Independence Day.
In the United States，banks and schools usually close on a legal holiday.When such a holiday falls on Sunday，the following Monday is usually observed.Schools and organizations often observe days known as traditional holidays，although schools and business do not close then.Those holidays include Valentine's Day and Halloween.

Everything we know about the world comes to us through our senses.Traditionally，we were thought to have just five of them－sight，hearing，touch，smell，and taste.
Although we pay little attention to them，each of these senses is precious and almost irreplaceable－as we discover，to our sorrow，if we lose one.People usually fear blindness above all other disabilities.Yet deafness can be an even more severe handicap，especially in early life，when children learn language.This is why Helen Keller's achievements were so extraordinary.
As a result of an illness at the age of 19 months，she lost both sight and hearing and sank into a totally dark，silent world.She was rescued from this terrible separation by her teacher，Anne Sullivan，who managed to explain，by tapping signs into the little girl's palm，that things have names，that letters make up words，and that these can be used to express wants or ideas.
Helen Keller later grew into a writer and a wellknown advocate for the handicapped.Her remarkable development owed a great deal to her determination，her teacher，and her family.But it also showed that when a sense(or two，in Helen Keller's case)is missing，another sense(in her case，touch) may be trained to make up for the loss，at least in part.
Our nervous system reacts only to a selected range of wavelengths，vibrations，or other properties.It is limited by our genes，as well as our previous experience and our present state of attention.
What draws our attention，in many cases，is change.Our senses are finely adjusted to change.Stationary or unchanging objects become part of the scenery and are mostly unseen.Usual sounds become background noise，mostly unheard.The feel of a sweater against our skin is soon unnoticed.
If something in the environment changes，we need to take notice because it might mean danger—or opportunity.Suppose an insect lands on your leg，instantly the touch receptors on the affected leg fire a message that travels up to your brain.There it crosses into the opposite hemisphere(the right hemisphere of the brain controls the left side of the body，and vice versa)to alert brain cells at a particular spot on a sensory map of the body.
48．The author refers to Helen Keller in order to ________.
A．prove deafness is a more severe handicap than
others
B．encourage deaf people to learn from her
C．show it is important to learn language in early
life
D．suggest hearing is precious and irreplaceable
49．Which of the following will draw our attention according to the passage?
A．A sweater against your skin when you are working.
B．Noise of the air conditioner when you are doing your homework.
C．A sudden quake of the room.
D．A sleeping cat in your sofa.
50．The underlined word “stationary” in Paragraph 6 means ________.
A．changing B．still
C．active D．quiet
Ⅳ.任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Joining in early morning exercises is a good health habit to develop，but it takes a lot of effort to begin with.Everyone loves to stay longer in bed in the morning and only a few would actually love to get up early even if its purpose is to add more years to your life by exercising.Fortunately，here are some tips that can help you to develop your morning exercise habit.
Firstly，get prepared for your morning exercise the night before.In other words，prepare your exercise outfit(服装) the night before your scheduled morning exercise.This will help you to change immediately as soon as you wake up.You also need to make sure that all the things you need for your activity are all ready.This will help you to go out as quickly as you can.
Secondly，you do not need to force yourself to wake up at once to perform the activity.Remember，you are on your way to developing a habit，and you should not do something that you are going to hate afterwards.Allow your body to adjust(适应) itself instead of jumping out of your bed and forcing your body to exercise when it still needs to rest a bit.Take time to gargle(漱口)，wash your face，brush your teeth and enjoy a cup of coffee before actually moving.
Thirdly，try to change your exercise to keep the excitement.Making some changes to your exercise can help you to avoid feeling dull.For example，if you like to walk or jog，you can change your route(路线) to see some changes in scenery.But you should always head to places that offer fresh air and sights that can encourage thinking and imagination.You can also try swimming or cycling for a change.
Lastly，get enough sleep and rest.Waking up early is a challenge if your body is short of enough rest and sleep.It is hard to force yourself to rise and get up if it has not replenished(补充) the energy that it lost the day before.Exercise is a serious business because it has something to do with your health.When you develop your exercise habit，you should also give yourself enough rest to get the energy you need to keep it.
These are some of the ways to develop early morning exercise habit.Do it for health.It can be your way to live a healthy lifestyle.

综合检测(一)
1．B make the most of意为“充分利用”，为固定搭配，由此排除A、C两项。rise具体指“学习效率”，为抽象名词具体化，故前面用不定冠词a。
2．A 句意：——妈妈，别担心。医生说只是流感。——我可以松口气了。我要告诉你爸爸没有什么严重的。A项意为“可以松口气了”，符合语境。B项意为“祝贺”；C项意为“多么令人惊讶啊”；D项意为“我很抱歉”。根据句意，应选A项。
3．A 句意：——很可能会下雨。——我们在雨来之前将工作做完吧。根据问句的意思，第一句应用It's likely to rain.it指天。所以形容词不能用possible和probable。第二空构成“get＋宾语＋过去分词”句型，表示“使某事完成或解决”，故选A项。
4．A 句意：我一踏进他的办公室，Auster就伸出了手与我握手。reach out在此意为“伸出手”。
5．A 句意：由于她的伟大成就，她得到了总裁的认可。recognition“认可”；contribution“贡献”；devotion“奉献，专心”；attraction“吸引”。
6．C 句意：买旧房子时我应该注意什么问题？watch out for在此意为“密切注意，当心”。come up with提出；make up for弥补；make use of利用。
7．D 考查fit和suit的区别。fit多指衣服的大小、尺寸等合适；suit表示颜色、花样等合适。故选D。
8．B 句意：远程教育正发挥越来越重要的作用，这使得无论在何处的人们都可能受到教育。wherever，无论何地。
9．D 第一空可用sitting和seated作宾补，her与sit是主谓关系，seat与her为动宾关系；第二空用fixed作宾补，fix与her attention为动宾关系。
10．C 考查名词辨析。out of one's reach 某人够不着；out of touch失去联系；out of sight看不见。句意：要时刻记着把刀一类的危险物放在孩子够不着的地方。故选C项。
11．C 句意：当一些人说地理令人困惑并且很难学时我感到很困惑。confused表示“感到困惑的”；confusing表示“令人困惑的”。
12．B 句意：李教授观察蜜蜂的行为已经多年了，他发现它们通过跳舞来交流信息。第一空用observed表示“观察”；第二空用to dance，不定式短语作主补，表示一般情况。
13．B 句意：为了制造电脑，科学家们研究人脑如何动作。 study后接宾语从句，引导词在从句中作方式状语，故本题用how。
14．D 分析句子结构可知，题干中主语从句后置了，结合句意可知，从句中缺少原因状语，故本题选D。that引导主语从句时，不在从句中作成分，how表示方式，when表示时间，这三个选项均与语境不符。
15．B 引导词在从句中作宾语，排除C；由honesty and happiness可排除D；which引导主语从句时，通常含有疑问含义，而题干并无疑问含义，排除A，故本题选B。what在此引导主语从句，并在从句中作offers的宾语，相当于“代词＋关系代词”，即the things that，意为“……的东西”。
【语篇解读】本文的作者是位盲人，但是他身残志坚，通过自身的努力找到了人生的意义。
16．C “我”能模糊地记得阳光(sunshine)的明亮和红色是什么样子。mist“薄雾”。

18．A 但是灾难(disaster)有时能给人们带来奇特的事情。incident“发生的事情(尤指不寻常的或讨厌的)”；wonder“奇观，奇迹”。

20．B “我”只是说失明让“我”更珍惜“我”剩余(left)的东西。
21．B “我”的父母和老师在“我”身上看到了某样东西——一种生活的潜能(potential)。
22．D 他们使“我”决心用失明(blindness)把这种潜能给激发出来。
23．A “我”必须要学的最难的(hardest)一课就是相信自己。
24．C “我”不是说那种能帮助“我”独自走完一段不熟悉的楼梯的简单的自信(self-confidence)。23空后面的“believe in myself”是线索提示。
25．D “我”的意思是(mean)比那更大的东西。20空前面的“mean”是线索提示。
26．A 虽然不完美(imperfect)，但是“我”要相信自己是个重要的、积极向上的人。
27．C 曾经(Once)有个人给了“我”一个室内棒球。
28．D “我”认为他在嘲笑“我”，“我”受伤(hurt)了。
29．A 这些话在“我”的脑海里挥之不去。stick in one's mind “(因不同寻常或有趣而)深深留在某人的脑海里，令某人记忆犹新”。
30．B 通过滚动球，“我”能听到(hear)它滚到了哪里。
31．D 这让“我”有了一个想法——如何能达到“我”打棒球的目标，在这之前“我”认为这是不可能的(impossible)。

33．D “我”必须要清楚“我”的局限(limitations)。
34．B 尝试“我”一开始就知道根本不可能完成的事是没有好处的，因为它只能带来失败的痛苦。wildly表示“极其，非常”。
35．C 不管怎样，“我”也会失败，但(but)一般来说，“我”进步了。
36．A 推理判断题。根据第一段After a hurried talk with Dad's doctors，Mother told my sister and me the worst.可知，答案为A。

39．D 细节理解题。根据第四段．..several months later he went to call on a friend at the same hospital.可知，答案为D。
40．C 根据第三段的But because of my work I had to rent a flat near the coast in Devon.It was nearly a hundred miles away from my home可知作者去Devon工作所以只能将狗狗留在家里。

My Teacher Mrs.Amon
Of all my teachers，Mrs.Amon is the one who impresses me most.Though she is 44，she looks very young for her age.And she's one of the most popular teachers in our school.
Compared with other teachers，Mrs.Amon pays more attention to her way of teaching.She tries various ways to make her classes lively and interesting.In her opinion，we should not only know “what”，but also understand “why”．So，instead of giving us answers immediately，she encourages us to think by ourselves whenever she puts forward questions.With her help，we've learned how to analyze and settle problems.What a wonderful world of “why” she leads us to!
She is such a learned person that we all admire her very much.

A
One evening I was parked in front of the mall wiping spots of mud off my car.I had just come from the company and was waiting for my wife.She was buying presents for her mother.Coming my way from across the parking lot was what society would consider a beggar.From his looks，he had no car，no home，no clean clothes and no money.
There are times when you feel generous，but there are times that you just don't want to be bothered.This was one of the times that“you don't want to be bothered and hope he doesn't ask me for money，” I thought.But he didn't.
After a few minutes he spoke.“That's a very nice car，”he said.He dressed poorly，but had an air of dignity (尊严) around him.I said “Thanks” and continued cleaning my car.
He watched quietly as I worked.The expected plea (请求) for money never came.As the silence between us widened，something inside said，“Ask him if he needs any help.” I was sure that he would say yes，but I held true to the inner voice.
“Do you need any help？” I asked.I expected nothing but a dirty hand.He spoke three words that shocked me and I shall never forget.“Don't we all？” he said.
I needed help.Maybe not for bus fare or a place to sleep，but I needed help.Those three words still ring true.No matter how much you have，you need help.No matter how little you have，you can give help.
Maybe he was an angel，dressed like a beggar.Maybe the man was just a homeless beggar，but his words were reasonable.
1．What was the author doing when the beggar came to him?

B
I saw a lady with a guide dog pass my window.Before she had managed to disappear from view she stopped.After a minute or so I watched as she signalled her dog to walk forward, the dog however remained sitting and refused to move.This continued for another minute or so until I was so puzzled by it that I went out to see what was happening.Sure enough the woman was still standing and trying in vain to get the dog to move forward.
I approached and asked what the problem was.She explained that a car a few yards ahead had its tyres on the kerb(路沿)and its motor running.In a situation like this the dog is trained not to proceed but will wait for the car to either move on or have its engine turned off.As I looked at the car I was able to tell the blind lady that in fact there was no one in it.The driver had left the engine running and popped into a shop for something.I waited another 2 or 3 minutes until the driver returned and hopped into the car totally oblivious to the inconvenience he had caused.
I pointed out what had happened to the driver who seemed a little embarrassed and shot off in the car.Only a week or so later I saw the same thing.Only this time I had the answer.Once again the same blind lady and her dog were on one side of the path.The dog sat on the pavement and the lady signalling it to move forward.This time a van was parked at the side of the dirt track，the driver reading a newspaper with his engine running to keep warm.I was able to explain to the van driver what was happening and he immediately switched the engine off and the dog got up and crossed the dirt track.
A lesson to us all? It was to me and one I will never forget.

Ⅰ.1.stare 2.fare 3.footsteps 4.narrow 5.darkness 6.hesitate 7.aid 8.grateful
9．anxious 10.forecast
Ⅱ.1.A 句意：我周围数里之内除了沙漠什么都没有，连棵树都看不到。in sight看得到，符合语境。
2．A 考查动词用法辨析。句意：快速看了一眼病人之后，这名医生立即打电话叫了一辆救护车。glance at匆匆地看一眼；glare at怒目而视；gaze at(因惊讶、喜悦或有兴趣而)注视，凝视；stare at(因吃惊、恐惧等而)盯着看。结合题干中的关键词quickly和选项可知本题选A。
3．B 句意：无论你怎么读这个句子，它就是讲不通。make sense意为“有意义；讲得通”，make sense of意为“理解”。A、C两项表达错误。
4．A 本题考查名词在具体语境中的使用。句意：那些头痛的人会发现这种药物能使头痛缓解。所以A项意义符合句意，relief表示“缓解，减轻，解除”。safety表示“安全，保险”；defense表示“防御，防护”；shelter表示“掩蔽，保护”。
5．B 考查动词词义辨析。beg，“乞求，乞讨，恳求”；hesitate，“犹豫，踌躇”；desire，“渴望，期望”；seek，“试图，要求”。句意：我们为你服务。当你有任何问题时，请毫不犹豫地向我们求助。选B。

11．D remember doing sth.记得做过某事；remember to do sth.记得要做某事，由语境可知排除A、B两项；又由I与take为被动关系可知答案为D。

14．A 考查“too...to...”结构。句意：那个售货员早上起得很早，因为她一直都很忙，没时间好好休息一下。too...to...表示“太……而不能……”，符合句意和句子结构的要求，不定式短语在句中作结果状语。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
Sydney－A shark savaged a schoolboy's leg while he was surfing with his father at a beach in Sydney on February 23.It was the third shark attack along the coast of Australia's largest city in a month.
The 15-year-old boy and his father were in the water off Avalon，on Sydney's northern beaches，around dawn when he was attacked.The city's beaches are packed with locals and tourists during the summer months.
“The father heard a scream and turned to see his son thrashing (激烈扭动) about in the water，”police said.“Fortunately，the shark swam away and the boy was helped to the shore by his father.”
Lifesaving Club spokesman Nick Miller said，“It got him around the top of his left leg and the father came and dragged him out of water.”He said the boy was bleeding heavily when he was brought to the shore.“There was a lot of pain，as you could imagine.”The teenager was airlifted to hospital for treatment for leg injuries.
Police said the bites “cut through to the bone”，but the boy did not appear to have sustained any fractures(骨折)．He was in a stable condition now.
Several beaches were closed after the attack.Water police and lifeguards were searching for the shark，while police hoped to identify its species by the shape of the bite marks.But they said it was too early to say what type of shark attacked the boy.“I don't even know if he saw it.”Miller said.
Many shark species live in the waters off Sydney's beaches，but attacks on humans are still relatively rare.However，there were two attacks on successive days earlier this month，one on a navy diver in Sydney harbor，not far from the famous Opera House，and the other on a surfer at the city's world-famous Bondi beach.
Fishermen say shark numbers are on the rise.There is a ban on commercial fishing in the harbor，which has increased fish stocks.Marine experts also claim environmental protection has created a cleaner environment，attracting sharks closer to the shore as they chase fish.Many shark species，including the Great White—the man-eaters made famous in Steven Spielberg's Jaws—are protected in Australian waters.
1．The report mainly tells us ________.
A．shark attacks on humans are on the rise
B．sharks attacked humans three times in one month
C．a boy was attacked by a shark at a Sydney beach
D．shark numbers are increasing in the waters off Sydney's beaches
2．The underlined word“savaged”in the first paragraph probably means“________”．
A．attracted B．dragged
C．bit D．packed
3．What do we know about the city of Sydney from the passage?
A．It is one of the largest cities in Australia.
B．Sydney harbor is not far from the famous Opera House.
C．There are many locals and tourists on its coast all the year round.
D．There are few shark species in the waters off Sydney's beaches.
4．About the injury of the boy we know that ________.
A．he was losing much blood when he was dragg-
ed out
B．he was very nervous when he was sent to hospital
C．he may be in danger of losing his leg
D．he was injured in the right leg

注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Anger is a natural reaction which comes out when we feel that we have not been given a fair treatment.The positive side of this negative emotion is that it has helped us to evolve as humans and cope in a better manner with our surroundings.However，it tends to become a problem when we fail to control it.Many a time it happens that your anger has hurt others or has spoiled one of your relationships for which you regret later.It has some bad effects on the health，too.
We should control anger so that it does not cause harm to us or to those around us whom we love.One of the best ways to control anger is to get help from others.If you feel that you are unable to manage your anger，it can make you more upset.So tell someone who is close to you，a friend or a family member，about your problem.When you discuss a matter with others，there is a better chance of finding a solution to your problem.Besides，there are no better stress relievers than humour.When you feel that it is because of stress that your anger is becoming unmanageable，you can use humour.It can help you look at difficult things in a lighter way and you will feel better about the things around you.
Anger tends to make us have a lot of negative thoughts.Therefore，we have to change the negative thoughts into positive ones.For this you have to first refuse all the negative thoughts that are in your mind one by one.This can be done with a lot of practice.Once you are successful in that，you have to maintain your focus only on the positive things of life.
Meditation (冥想) is an excellent anger management technique.In addition，what we do is disconnect ourselves from the outer world and focus all our attention into the inner world.This helps us develop a sense of controlling our thoughts that tend to cause anger.

3．A get into a panic表示“陷入恐慌状态”。句意：甲型H1N1流感在我国爆发时，许多人恐慌不安，但不久形势便在控制之中了。
4．A 句意：研究表明，如果人们总是长时间坐在电脑前，他们很可能产生背部问题。所填的词作表语，主语是人，四个选项中possible和probable也都表示“可能的”，但它们作表语时主语只能是物；sure在此处意思不恰当。因此，答案是A。
5．B 句意：——我再也不去这家餐馆了。食物太难吃了！——我也不会去了。“neither/nor＋系动词/助动词/情态动词＋主语”表示同样的情况也适合另一人。A项的am不对。
6．B 考查动词的时态和语态。句意：据说她毕业以后就受雇于一家电脑公司。employ雇佣，和主语构成被动关系；又根据since graduation可知时态应该选用完成时。故答案为B。

10．A taste是系动词，所以要用形容词good作其表语。well作形容词时，意思是“健康的”。故答案是A。句意：这些橘子尝起来味道很不错。
11．D 此题考查名词性从句。句意：你是否喜欢他与我无关。whether意为“是否”，引导主语从句。
12．B what引导的从句作介词from的宾语。在从句中，what作表语。句意为“我们学校和以前完全不同了”。
13．C 句意：这衣服太大了，根本不适合我。beautiful“美丽的”；lost“失踪的”；loose“宽松的”；kind“善良的”。根据句意C项符合句意。
14．B 此题考查compare的用法。compare...to/with...意为“与……比较”。句意：如果把她与许多妇女相比，她的确非常幸运。故答案为B。
15．B 句意：——你打算参加演讲比赛吗？——________机会难得，不容错过。由语境中的“机会难得，不容错过”可推断出，空处应表示“肯定要参加”。比较选项可知，表示“毫无疑问；当然；肯定”的“That's for sure”符合语境，即答案为B。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】本文是一则新闻，一个男孩在悉尼的一个海湾冲浪时遭到鲨鱼攻击，这已经是本月第三次鲨鱼袭击人的事件了。此地禁渔令的实施以及环境的改善使鱼的数量上升，鲨鱼在捕食过程中也越来越多地随着它的食物靠近海岸。

Ⅳ.阅读理解
Kids may need to apologize if they do something wrong－like telling a lie or breaking a rule on purpose.When they do something their parents tell them not to do，or they don't do something they are supposed to do，they apologize，too.
Grown-ups can apologize，too—to other grown-ups or even to kids.After all，even grown-ups make mistakes sometimes.By apologizing when they're wrong，grown-ups can set a good example and show kids how to do the right thing and apologize when they need to.
Saying “I'm sorry” when you need to is the right thing to do.It does a lot of good.But by itself，it might not be enough to make everything all better again.Sometimes along with an apology，a person needs to fix the mistake or promise to do better.Sometimes doing a nice thing for the person after you apologize helps show that you really are sorry and want to be friendly again.
Sometimes a heartfelt (由衷的)“I'm sorry” fixes everything right away.Other times，it might take a while for someone to feel friendly after you apologize.You might need to give the other person some time.Even after you say you're sorry，you might still feel bad about what you said or did－but you can feel good about apologizing and about making up your mind to do better.
When someone apologizes to you，you might not feel like being friendly again right away.Once in a while，if a person doesn't change，you might not want to be friends anymore.You might feel glad that the other person apologized and admitted being wrong.But if someone keeps behaving in mean ways or does something that keeps hurting，you might not feel the same way anymore.Someone apologizes to you；it doesn't mean you have to be friendly again.That part is up to you.

课时作业(二)
Ⅰ.1.puzzled 2.recognized 3.volunteers 4.ignored 5.reduced 6.sniffed 7.analyse
8．sweat 9.firmly 10.approach
Ⅱ.1.A 句意：哦，我看到他就停下来冲他微笑，但是他没理我就走了。ignore不理睬，忽视；refuse拒绝；deny否认；miss怀念，错过。
2．D 句意：她停止哭泣，抽着鼻子，擦干眼泪。breathe意为“呼吸”；sign意为“叹息”；smell意为“闻，嗅；察觉”；sniff可专指哭泣时“抽鼻子”。
3．B reduce为及物动词，costs应为被减少，所以要用被动语态，排除A、C两项。另外“减少了”或“增加了”后面的百分数前要用介词by，to用在“减少到”或“增加到”后面的具体数字前。故B项正确。
4．D although引导让步状语从句，表示“虽然”，符合本句句意。A项as引导让步状语从句时，必须用倒装语序；B项once为“一旦”的意思；C项if引导条件状语从句。
5．D 由本题题干中的“When I was young”可知后面的句子应用一般过去时。因此B、C两项明显不合题意，在A、D两个选项中，A项是there be句型的过去将来时用法；used to是表示过去持续的状态，客观地陈述了当时的状态，故选D。
6．C 句意：一听到矿难的消息，她的脸就变白了。该题考查的是系表结构“go＋adj.”。get和change不能与pale搭配来表达这一状态的变化，而appear是表示状态存在的系动词。
7．D 考查动词辨析。want不接宾语从句，另外三个词都可以接从句作宾语，但是从对话的第二句可以看出前一句是征求意见，只有suggest最符合语境。
8．C 句意：专家们认为必要的时候才购物可以减少食物的浪费。分析结构可知，此处是experts believe...作主句，空格处引导宾语从句，从句不缺少成分，故用that。why在句中作原因状语；where作地点状语；what作主语、宾语或表语。故正确答案为C项。分析清楚句子结构是解题关键。
9．D 句意：新组建的委员会的政策是否会付诸实施还有待观察。该句包含一个由whether引导的主语从句“whether the newly formed committee's policy can be put into practice”，该主语从句不缺成分，所以排除B和C；由语境中的remains to be seen可知，“是否实施新政策”还有待观察，所以此处要用whether。故选D。
10．B 句意：要取得最高层次的成功，唯一的方法就是要完全相信在体育运动领域你比其他任何人都优秀。have total belief that...完全相信……，为固定句式。此处belief后接了同位语从句，从句不缺少成分，用that引导，所以正确答案为B项。
11．B 分析句子结构可知________comes是主语从句，“no matter＋疑问词”不能引导名词性从句，排除C和D；whatever无论什么；whoever无论是谁，所以选B。
12．C 句意：地球这些年在逐渐变暖这个事实令许多科学家担忧。此处that引导同位语从句，从句解释说明fact的具体内容。
13．B 句意：你为什么不让他注意到你病得无法继续工作这一事实呢？it在此作形式宾语，真正的宾语是后置的从句that you're too ill to work on。
14．A 因为2020年奥运会举办的城市未定，所以用whether引导主语从句。if虽也有“是否”的意思，但它不能引导主语从句。C、D两项不合题意。
15．D 本题中因为主语是the question，含有疑问的意味，所以排除A、B两项。而表语从句只能用whether引导而不能用if，所以选D。
Ⅲ.1.B 由下文I looked around and found a pen...可知作者有写(write)诗的愿望和灵感。
2．D 由下文．..a sheet of paper at hand可知作者找到了笔，但是没有找到纸(paper)。
3．A 此处用even表示强调，此时作者手头甚至连一张纸也没有。
4．C 作者很想写诗但是找不到纸，所以作者有些失望地(disappointedly)坐下来。
5．B 后来证明(turned out)作者钱包里有一张一美元的钞票。
6．A 由下文I then decorated the bill...可知作者发现钱包里有一张一美元的钞票(bill)。
7．C 钞票上没有多少(little)空间可以写东西。
8．D 由下文作者在这张钞票上写的内容可知这是一张特别的(special)钞票。
9．A 由下文Pass it on.Give it to someone else with love，and watch it...可知不要花(spend)这张钞票。
10．B 看着这张钞票进行爱心传递(spread)。
11．D 由下文．..given a dollar with hearts...可推知作者在钞票上画满了“心”(hearts)的图案。
12．C 由文中第一句话About a year back，I got off the train and was waiting for my ride to pick me up可知此处选ride。
13．B 由下文I was sure she was not anxious any more可知此处选择anxious。
14．A everything goes well为固定搭配，表示“一切顺利”的意思。
15．D 突然收到陌生人送来的爱心钞票，女人会感到惊讶(Surprised)。
16．B 看了作者写在钞票上的话，那个女人笑(smile)了一下。
17．C 她站起来抱了(hug)作者一下，然后感谢作者。
18．A 作者从一位陌生人(stranger)那里的反应推知，爱心是可以传递的，且效果非常明显。
19．C without limit意为“没有限制地”，作者的意思为：这种温暖的波浪会无限地延续下去。
20．D 作者已经走了但是(though)作者感觉这不是故事的结尾。作者的意思是爱心会一直传递下去。
Ⅳ.1.D 作者在第一段列举了孩子们需要道歉的若干情况，从而告诉读者向别人道歉是一种常见的现象。
2．B 根据句中的apologizing等信息可知，作者建议成人树立道歉的榜样。
3．D 根据第三段中的Saying “I'm sorry” when you need to is the right thing to do.It does a lot of good很明显可以看出，代词it指代saying “I'm sorry”。
4．A 根据第五段中的You might feel glad that the other person apologized and admitted being wrong可以推知，当朋友伤害了你，你想让他/她承认“我错了”。
5．C 本文介绍了“道歉”的必要性、技巧及其产生的效果，很明显，这些话题是有关“交际”的范畴，故C项为最佳答案。
