Ⅲ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends.They believe that their family members don't know them as well as their friends do.In large families，it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they go to their friends for some ideas.
It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or a group of friends.Even when they are not with their friends，they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone.This communication(交际)is very important in children's growing up，because friends can talk about something，and these things are difficult to say to their family members.
However，parents often try to choose friends for their children.Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends.Have you ever thought of the following questions?
Who choose your friends？Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you？Have you got a good friend your parents don't like?
Your_answers_are_welcome.
36．Many teenagers think that________can understand them better.
A．friends B．brothers
C．sisters D．parents
37．When teenagers have something difficult to say，they usually________.
A．stay alone at home
B．fight with their parents
C．talk about it with their friends
D．go to their brothers and sisters for help
38．The underlined sentence“Your answers are welcome.”means________.
A．you are welcome to discuss the questions with us
B．we've got no idea，so your answers are welcome
C．your answers are always right
D．you can give us all the right answers
39．Which of the following is the writer's attitude?
A．Parents should choose friends for their children.

D．Teenagers should only go to their friends for help.
B
While most high school students spend most of their time worrying about who likes who，and different relationships between their classmates，I choose to focus on my school lessons and sports.
When I was young，my mother encouraged me to develop and keep friendship with boys in order to build strong relationships.But she told me not to risk a good friendship with a boy with the title of boyfriend.It's indeed a wise choice to stay friends with those of the opposite sex.In my opinion，even though some high school relationships might continue after graduation，the probability of them lasting much longer is so slim that there really is not a point to it.
Firstly you have to think about such a question－whether it is possible to hurt both of you，or even hurt both of your future husbands or wives.My second point is that you still can date if you hope marriage could possibly follow.Except this，there really is not any other reason for dating.Some students desire relationships for a chance to be romantic.While these are nice to have，there are many more important things at this point in our lives.
The titles of boyfriend and girlfriend put too much stress on a relationship between high school students.Just staying as common friends may be the best choice for us.I strongly recommend we should deal with it in an appropriate way and follow our teachers' advice if necessary.

Here is some general information about Edison Elementary School. For more information, you can see our website which is printed on the cover.
Attendance：
We ask that you please contact the office at 480 472 5282 if your child is going to be absent.
Renaissance Reading：
The Accelerated Reader (AR) Program is a computerized reading enrichment program that combines great children's literature with computer skills. As an individualized(个性化的) reading program, it is designed to motivate students to read more and to read good literature. Students of different abilities can use this program. It is not a competitive program but one that improves any student's reading ability.
Here is how it works. Students select books in their reading range from our Accelerated Reader Selection and read it at their own pace, Once the student has completed the book, he/she is ready to take an AR quiz. Each quiz consists of 5, 10, or 20 multiple choice comprehensive questions about the book.
After taking the quiz, the computer shows the student how many questions he/she answered correctly, shows the correct answers for missed questions, and praises the students' efforts with an on-screen personalized message. Passing the quiz assures the teacher and the parent that the child actually read and understood the book. Each student tests independently—reading the quiz questions himself/herself.
The computer keeps track of reading points, books, and average test scores, as well as other data. A student may test on a book only once and should, therefore, have thoroughly read and understood the contents before taking the quiz. Each student is responsible for reading the screen to be sure the quiz, by title and author, is the correct one he/she wishes to take.
Students are recognized for their accomplishments with praise from the teachers and special recognition at the classroom level when individual and/or classroom goals are met.
P．T.O：
We have an active Parent-Teacher Organization. They have monthly meetings, check the calendar for the meeting times and places.

A．a magazine B．a newspaper
C．a website D．a novel

D．The summary of the book to be selected is shown on the screen.

In America, after middle school comes high school, which includes grades 9 through 12. Students are required to take certain subjects like English, social studies, math, science, and physical education. In addition, they choose among elective(可选修的) subjects to complete their high school education. Electives include subjects in technology, music, art, and foreign languages.
Each student in the school has their own locker for books and personal items, which saves students from carrying textbooks, and allows students a small space they can decorate with posters and favorite objects.
Cheating in any form is strictly prohibited in American schools. And in fact, a student caught in plagiarism(剽窃) faces serious punishment.
Each school holds certain activities for the entire school body, such as homecoming, prom(正式舞会) night, holiday celebrations, etc.
While homecoming is celebrated differently at each school, it usually includes a parade and the crowning of the Homecoming King and Queen, and ends with a football game and school dance. The prom is a formal dance for students in Grades 11 and 12, and is generally accepted as the most important social event of the school year. It can also be a time of anxiety, as boys have to work up the courage to ask a date to the prom, and girls hope the right boy invites them.
Most high schools have at least one sports team that competes in local events, and all students are encouraged to take part in sports.
Many high school students have part-time jobs by the age of 15 or 16, some even earlier. Their first jobs are often babysitting or cutting lawns, but later they will likely get a job at a fast-food restaurant, video store, or clothing shop.
Sixteen years old is the legal driving age in most states, and students usually want to own a car as soon as they can. Many teenagers feel it's a necessity to own a car, and will do whatever it takes to be able to drive.
47．The underlined word “prohibited” in the third paragraph can be replaced by________.
A．dropped B．agreed
C．not encouraged D．not allowed

Ⅳ.任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后的空格内填入最恰当的单词。每空格只能填1个单词。
There has been much disagreement over children's education in recent years. One of the questions is whether children benefit more from boarding(寄宿) at schools or from going to day schools and staying with their parents after school. It is becoming a matter of concern for more and more people, especially for parents with only one child.
The people who are in favour of children going to boarding schools point out that a boarding school is an ideal place for building up children's independence, which they seldom learn from their parents at home. Children who have the experience of going to boarding schools will come up with their own ways to problems they meet with instead of turning to their parents or others for help. What's more, these children usually enjoy team work than the little emperors' in many one-child families. They are generally more used to competing with others and will find it easier to fit modern society, which is full of competition when they grow up.
On the other hand, those who are against children going to boarding schools argue that boarding schools are usually much more expensive than ordinary day schools. Usually children from rich families gradually develop a sense of pride toward those from other families. And children at boarding schools have less time to be with their parents, which may lead to a gap between them and weaken family ties.

综合检测(一)
1．C experience作“经验”讲时，是不可数名词；作“经历”讲时，为可数名词。故根据句意选C。
2．D 句意：有些人喜欢踢足球，而其他人喜欢看足球比赛。be fond of doing sth./enjoy doing sth.“喜欢做某事”。
3．C 考查与average相关短语的用法。句意：这家工厂十个月生产2 000辆轿车，平均每月生产200辆。on average“平均地”，与语境相符。below average“低于平均水平”；above average“高于平均水平”，与语境不符。an average通常不在句中作状语。
4．A take charge of“管理，负责”。
5．C 先行词是the plan，且由最高级修饰，定语从句用that引导。
6．C for free“免费地”，freely“自由地，慷慨地，坦率地”。
7．A make use of“利用”，use提到前面作先行词，make of改为定语从句的形式。we make of the used paper这个定语从句中，省去了关系代词which或者that。句意：——你难道没意识到我们在使用用过的纸吗？——不，我已经意识到了。
8．A 本题考查词义辨析。challenging“具有挑战性的”；average“平均的，普通的”；expensive“昂贵的”；extra“额外的”。根据后一句句意“很少有人能够通过”可知空格处应填challenging“具有挑战性的”。因此A项正确。
9．B on/upon(doing)sth.表示“一……就……”。
10．A 句意：过去它是一个多么令人愉快的小镇啊！但现在有这么多的工厂和污染。根据句意可知A项正确。used to do sth.表示“过去常常做某事”。be used to do表示“被用来……”；be(get)used to sth.，be used to doing sth.表示“习惯于(做)某事”。
11．A come up with“提出”；put up with“忍受”；keep up with“跟上，与……保持一致”；look up to“尊敬”。句意：希望律师在看过所有那些文件后提出一些建议。
12．B require sb.that结构中，that从句中谓语动词用should do，should可省略。inform sb.of/about sth.是固定短语，意思是“通知某人某事”。
13．B 根据句意可知此处指“因为国庆假期而增加额外的班车”，put on“增加”，extra“额外的”。
14．D 根据句意此处应该是“不仅仅”，more than正是此意。no more than“仅仅”，nothing but“只不过”，not more than“不超过”，都不合题意。
15．C 定语从句引导词的判断取决于先行词在从句中所作的成分，parts“零件”应从属于machine，故应选择whose，表示“机器的零件”。
16．C 根据后一句“家人去了海边”可推知“目前正是夏季，天气炎热，一家人去海边避暑”。
17．C 句意：杰克花光了钱提前回家。use up“用尽，耗完”，符合句意。
18．A 见上题解析。
19．B 根据最后一段中的light (灯光)可知，杰克到Albans时已经是晚上了，并且班车都停了，那肯定是到了午夜了。
20．C 最后一班车都走了，杰克只好走着回家了。
21．D 走着回家，杰克肯定很累。
22．B 累坏了，杰克就脱下衬衫休息了。
23．B 根据后文警察接到邻居的电话，怀疑有人进了屋，所以就破门而入来抓贼。
24．D 警察怀疑杰克是小偷，所以让杰克坐下问他问题。make sb. do “让某人做……”，符合句意。
25．A 杰克解释说自己住在这里，但警察们不相信，只是继续问问题。go on doing“继续做……(同一件事)”，符合句意。
26．B 根据后文可以推断出，其他的警察暂时离开了，让一个高个子的非常年轻的警察看守着他。leave“留下”，符合句意。
27．D 其他警察离开去搜查房子，以便找出杰克是小偷的证据。search“搜查，搜索”，符合句意。
28．C 其他警察搜完房子回来了，领“回来”了一名警官。
29．B 根据本句中的but表示的转折意义可以推断出，警官没有问杰克问题，而是听他解释。
30．D 根据后一句“警察将杰克的邻居叫来”可以推知，警察说的是“我们很快就会‘知道’真相的”。know“知道”，符合句意。
31．D 邻居被叫来辨认小偷，当然要小心谨慎了，所以他“仔细地”打量杰克。
32．C 证人是杰克的邻居，自然认识杰克，因此他说“是的，他是Mr.Hope。”
33．B 根据后一句“警察确信他们抓住了小偷”，会立功的，没想到弄错了，他们肯定很“失望”。
34．B 后面的句子证实了杰克的推断，杰克说的对，所以警察“点头”表示认可。
35．B 原来杰克的邻居“看到”杰克的房间里亮起了灯，以为是小偷入室行窃了，所以报了警。
36．A 细节理解题。由文章第一段信息They believe that their family members don't know them as well as their friends do.可知A项正确。
37．C 细节理解题。由文章第二段信息This communication is very important in children's growing up，because friends can talk about something，and these things are difficult to say to their family members.可知C项正确。
38．A 推理判断题。由语境可知，此处主要是针对上段问题而来，故A项正确。
39．C 态度观点题。由文章信息特别是第三、四段可推知作者态度。
40．A 细节理解题。文章第一段提到“While most high school students spend most of their time...”，再结合最后一段可知，文章的写作对象是high school students。故A项符合题意。
41．D 细节理解题。文中第二段提到“the probability of them lasting much longer is so slim that there really is not a point to it”，由此可知在高中发展男女朋友关系是不会长久的，即普通朋友关系比男女朋友关系能更持久、更稳固。
42．B 推理判断题。文中倒数第二段提到“While these are nice to have，there are many more important things at this point in our lives.”，作者认为此时还有更重要的事情去做，比如学习。
43．D 词义猜测题。根据文章的主要意思可知此处讲的是我们要用恰当的方式来处理与异性之间的关系并遵循老师的建议。因此D项符合题意。
44．A 考查文章来源。由第一段的you can see our website which is printed on the cover.可知答案。
45．B 考查作者意图。由第二段的We ask that you please contact the office at 480 472 5282 if your child is going to be absent.可知答案。
46．B 考查判断正误。由第五段最后一句话Each student tests independently—reading the quiz questions himself/herself.可知B正确。
47．D 词义猜测题。由此段的后句faces serious punishment可知答案。
48．C 结构考查题。前三段讲的是学习上的情况，接下来两段讲的是学校活动，最后三段分别讲到了体育运动、学生兼职和驾驶。故C正确。
49．A 推理判断题。B项，美国家长有的可能会给孩子买车作为毕业礼物，但并非是普遍行为。C项，美国孩子即使挣到足够的钱，由于年龄不够，也不可能买车。D项，美国学生到十五六岁时不一定都要做兼职。故选A项。
50．B 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了美国高中生的学校学习和课外生活。
51．boarding 52.concerned 53.independent
54．Enjoying 55.competitive 56.Disadvantages
57．Paying 58.causing 59.Developing 60.Conclusion

Many Chinese students think American students enjoy more freedom than them at school. But American schools also have their rules. If the students break the rules, they will get punishment, too.
On the first day of a new term, 128 students of Morton High School were sent home for wearing the wrong clothes. There are altogether 1200 students in the school. Usually only 20 students break the school dress rule every day. So the headmaster Theresa Mayerik said it was the worst new term she had ever seen.
At Morton High School, students' favorite clothing such as baggy(宽大的)trousers, low-necked shirts and tanktops(紧身短背心)are not allowed in classrooms. Some students think they have the right to choose what to wear. But the headmaster doesn't think so.“I'd be supportive if half the school was sent home, because 99% will get the message that our school are for education.”“Freedom”does not mean “free of restrictions(约束)”. That is to say there is no total freedom in the world, no matter in the US or in China.
1．Many Chinese students think that ________.
A．American students are very free at school
B．American students are not so clever as them
C．American students don't love their school at all
D．there is no freedom in American schools
2．128 students of Morton High School were sent home for ________.
A．not finishing their homework
B．being late for school
C．not wearing the right clothes

It's school time again! You're probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad as summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these “new” worries only stick around for a little while. Let's find out more about going to a new school.
Most teachers kick_off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the things you'll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you'll know what's allowed and what's not. Please pay close attention.
You might already know a lot of people in your classes on the first day, but it's a great day to make new friends, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don't. Make the first move and you'll be glad you did, and so will your new friends!
Seeing friends you haven't seen for a while can make the first day a good one. You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers(运动鞋). It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you'll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don't have time in the morning.
6．Why do some students feel sad when they return to school?
A．Because they have to meet their teachers.
B．Because they will meet new things at school.
C．Because they can no longer play as they did in the summer vacation.
D．Because they miss their friends and teachers.
7．According to the passage you usually do everything on the first day of school except________.
A．introduce yourself
B．learn about the school rules
C．make new friends
D．go over your new lessons
8．If you happen to see an old friend on the first day of school, from the passage we know that you will feel________.
A．nervous B．lucky
C．happy D．excited
9．The last paragraph mainly tells us about________.
A．what to know about a new school
B．how to prepare for a new school
C．what to do on your first day of school
D．how to spend your first day of school
10．The underlined phrase “kick off” in the second paragraph probably means “________”．
A．start B．study
C．find D．teach

课时作业(一)
Ⅰ.1.average 2.devoted 3.earns 4.experience
5．encouraged 6.challenging 7.extra 8.respects 9.exchanged 10.satisfaction
Ⅱ.1.D 句意：中学时期拍过一部电影是我终生难忘的一次经历。school指受教育而不指具体的学校时为抽象名词，不加冠词；experience为“经历”时是可数名词，在本句中表示泛指，要与不定冠词连用。
2．C 本题考查动词短语用法。句意为“那个教授把自己的一生都献给了艾滋病治疗的研究上”。devote one's life to doing sth.意为“把某人一生献给做某事上”，故选C。
3．B 本题考查形容词的同级比较结构。as big a house as...相当于a house as big as...，故答案为B。
4．A 本题考查非谓语动词用法。句意为“孩子们吃饭的时候说话声音非常大，以至于我不得不极力(提高嗓门)让其他人听清我的话”。struggle to do sth.意为“努力做某事”，又因I与hear之间存在被动关系，故应用不定式的被动形式，故选A。
5．D 本题考查介词用法。句意为“他是个好学生，他的大多数科目成绩都在平均分以上”。below average意为“在平均水平以下”；of不与average搭配；on average意为“平均地”；above average意为“在平均水平以上”。根据句意，故选D。
6．A 句意：年轻人应该尊重父母、老师和老年人。show respect to/for是固定短语，意为“尊重……”。故选A。
7．A 句意：在非洲旅行是一次不同寻常的经历，我将永不忘记。本题中experience意为“经历”，是可数名词，据此可排除B、D两项；“Traveling in Africa”是一次经历，又可排除C项。
8．D curious好奇的；crazy迷恋，但后需加about; anxious渴望的，担心的；be fond of喜欢。
9．B 句意：理查德提出帮助做家务活交换下一星期的食宿费用。by means of“通过”；in exchange for“交换”；in return for“作为……的回报”；in charge of“负责，管理”，B项符合句意。
10．B 句意：每当她回首那段日子，她就充满了幸福。look down on“轻视，瞧不起”；look back on“回顾，回忆”；look up to“尊敬，钦佩”；look through“浏览，审视”。显然B项与语意相符。
11．A 句意：晚饭后遛狗是一件乐事。不定式表示具体一次动作，动名词一般式表示泛指意义的“散步”。根据语意可知，空格处需要填表示抽象意义或习惯性动作的词，所以要用动名词walking。
12．A get used to doing sth.“习惯于做某事”；get to do sth.“开始做某事”。
13．B 句意：人们的生活条件已经得到了很大的改善，甚至可以免费上网了。for a change“为了改变一下”；for free“免费”；for a moment“一会儿”；for fun“开玩笑地”。根据句意可知选B。
14．D 本题考查介词用法。句意为“足球决赛的结果是2比2，两个队都满意”。to the satisfaction of意为“使……满意”，故答案为D。
15．A 本题为not until...用于强调句型的用法，故答案为A。
Ⅲ.1.A 从文章的第一段第一行“Many Chinese students think American students enjoy more freedom than them at school.”可知答案。A项符合短文题意。

4．B 在读懂短文的基础上考生能够推断出该单词的意思是“支持的”。
5．A 从文章的第三段倒数第二句“Freedom”does not mean“free of restrictions.”可以知道答案。表明了作者同意学校的观点，A项符合短文题意。
6．C 细节理解题。由第一段第二句中的．..a little sad as summer is over可知答案。
7．D 细节理解题。根据文章第二、三段内容和常识可排除D项“开学第一天复习新课”。
8．C 细节理解题。由最后一段第一句话可知答案。
9．B 主旨大意题。本段主要告诉了读者如何为上一所新学校做准备工作，尤其是最后一句体现出“prepare”的意思。故B项最能概括其大意。
10．A 词义猜测题。由本句内容可推知该词语为“开始”之意。

“A school without a newspaper is a school without a student voice.” This is the motto of the Webster Stanley Elementary WAVE：the first elementary school newspaper in Wisconsin. The WAVE is an innovative, student-based program at Webster Stanley Elementary School designed to foster real literacy opportunities for students as well as civic engagement. It centers on teaching students to research, to write, to edit, and to produce photographs and other art works into a professionally printed newspaper. Although the students work with two advisors, the students themselves produce and edit the newspaper.
The WAVE began in the fall of 2005. The newspaper name was selected by an all school vote. The masthead(报头) was designed by Derrick Reese, one of the two cartoonists on the staff. The staff of 24 is comprised mainly of fourth and fifth graders who must apply with a written application form that includes samples of their work. The process is highly competitive with over 70 applications the first year. Webster Stanley students work with mentors(导师) at the Northwestern and use their computers and presses to produce a four-page newspaper, four times a school year. In addition, the Gannett Foundation has contributed $1,000 for each year to help defray costs for the WAVE. It costs approximately $ 500 per issue to print with a run of 1,000 copies. In the fall of 2005, Jonathan Gibson, a fourth grader, assumed a new position as business manager. His job is to raise money to support the WAVE. Through his efforts, mainly by presentations and business letters, Gibson has raised approximately $ 1,500 for the paper.
1．What would be the BEST title of the passage?
A．Students find voice with school newspaper
B．A school can't do without a newspaper
C．It's hard to run a school newspaper
D．The importance of a newspaper
2．We learn from the first paragraph that________.
A．the WAVE has become a professionally printed newspaper
B．the students can benefit a lot from the WAVE
C．the WAVE is mostly managed by the students
D．the WAVE mainly focuses on the students' literacy ability
3．How did the WAVE get its name?
A．It was suggested by the two staff advisors.
B．It was thought of by the famous cartoonist.
C．It was chosen based on all the students' voting.
D．It was named after the Gannett Foundation.
4．We can infer from the passage that________.
A．the WAVE has fallen into difficulty
B．the WAVE may close down soon
C．the WAVE has earned much money for the school
D．the WAVE runs well due to the students' efforts
5．The underlined word “defray” probably means “________”．

Teaching kids to fish sometimes puzzles us parents. Now I'd like to give you a few tips.
First of all, start them young.
Get them in a boat, or on a pier(码头), or on the bank at as young an age as you possibly can. Obviously this means being extremely conscious about their safety. Whatever you do, DON'T plan on any fishing yourself. If fishing is going to happen, the fishing will be done by the kids with your help! This lets you pay attention to them and not ignore them while you fish.
Next, make sure you plan the first trips to someplace where you can actually catch a lot of fish. At this point, it doesn't matter what kind or how big, just make sure they can catch some. A small child's patience is very short, and waiting 30 minutes for a bite will turn them off in a hurry. You may need to go to a small pond where the fish are dying to eat bread balls. Any type of fish will do. Remember, this is for them, not for you.
As they fish, cheer for every fish they catch. Make a really big deal out of it. Take pictures. And if it's possible, take some home to clean. Let the child help you clean with a table knife, so he (or she) can't get hurt.
Make sure he makes and sees the connection from catching to cleaning to cooking. As soon as you have the fish cleaned, it's into the kitchen to start cooking. Make them flour and cornmeal the fish. Let them see the fish cooking, and talk about how good they are. Then when it's ready, make sure you brag(吹嘘) on the fact that they caught these fish, and “aren't they good？”
In this way, I'm sure your kids will be interested in fishing and good at fishing.

Ⅳ.阅读理解
Are you scared about moving up to senior high school? It can be a new experience, but you shouldn't worry. We've put together a guide on how to survive the first week.
You're not alone
Remember everybody_else_in_your_year_is_in_the_same_boat. They may not realize it, but they're just as nervous as you are. Moving to senior high is an opportunity, not a problem. Things are different and all you need to do is be polite and learn the new rules.
Teachers are ready to help!
If you're unsure what to do or are worried about anything then you had better ask for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they're experienced in helping new students. Some senior high schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this, then you will be paired with an older student. They will look out for you and help you if you have any problems or questions.
All change
There are lots of differences between junior high school and senior high school. You'll have a homework diary or a student planner. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days, so make sure you get organized. Make sure you have a copy of your school timetable written down so you know which rooms your classes are in and on which days you will have your different subjects.
Other points
If you've got an older brother or sister at the school then ask them for advice.
Be yourself! It sounds simple, but people will know you much better if you just act naturally.
Having early nights makes a difference and you'll find it easier to get up in the morning!
1．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?
A．Other students have similar feelings to yours.
B．Other students have to learn boating with you.
C．Other students will help you solve your problems.
D．Other students will teach you politeness and new rules.
2．The new students turn to teachers first when having problems because________.
A．teachers won't blame them as parents do
B．teachers are good at helping solve problems
C．teachers are equal to every student
D．parents are too busy to help them
3．How many of the followings are the author's advice for a new senior high school student?
①keeping a homework diary ②making a plan
③keeping a copy of school timetable ④getting yourself organized ⑤going to classrooms half an hour before the classes
A．2 B．3 C．4 D．5
4．Which of the following is NOT true?
A．You can act in a natural way.
B．You should go to bed early enough.
C．You must focus on dressing properly.
D．You may ask your older brother for advice.
5．What's the purpose of the passage?
A．To tell students the importance of learning.
B．To warn students not to ignore friendship in senior high.
C．To make a difference when moving up to senior high.
D．To help new students to get used to life in senior high.
课时作业(二)
Ⅰ.1.former 2.Independence 3.fluently 4.kindness 5.graduating 6.painting 7.splendid
8．donated 9.graduated 10.independent
Ⅱ.1.C 句意：他一到达北京就给他朋友打了电话。on (one's) doing sth. “在(某人)一……的时候”；as soon as“一……就……”是连词词组，后面要跟句子；once“一旦”，后面跟句子；immediately也可用作连词，后面跟句子，意思为“一……就……”。
2．C donate“捐款，捐赠”，与语境相符。
3．A whether or not“是否”，固定搭配。
4．A make use of是固定搭配。make the best use of意为“充分利用，最佳利用”。本句是把make the best use of拆开转换成定语从句的结构。
5．D A和C两项不能引导定语从句，空格处作定语从句的主语，where不能作主语，所以选D项。
6．D 本题考查形容词辨析。句意为“你不要老是依赖于你父母，向他们要钱，你应该独立”。alone意为“独自的”；brave意为“勇敢的”；easygoing意为“随和的，悠闲的，从容的”；independent意为“独立的”。根据句意，故答案为D。
7．A graduate from...“从……毕业”； a graduate of...“……学校的毕业生”。
8．D the former...the latter...意为“前者……后者……”，符合句意。
9．C 考查定语从句。句意：一个人的电子邮件账户满了，就不能收发任何邮件了。先行词为person，而定语从句中又缺少定语，因此用whose。
10．B 空白处之后为定语从句修饰先行词the exhibition，引导词在从句中作visited的宾语，故选B。
11．C 句意：我仍然记得你谈论过的人和事。定语从句的先行词既有人又有物时，用that引导。who修饰的先行词只能是人；which只能修饰表物的先行词；whose在定语从句中作定语。
12．D whose引导定语从句，且作eyesight的定语。
13．B 先行词为the only所修饰，定语从句用that引导。
14．D seat为先行词，其前面有any修饰，且关系代词在定语从句中作主语，只能选that。
15．D 本题考查在定语从句中，当先行词被the only，the very等修饰时，其后定语从句的引导词用that。
Ⅲ.1.B bitterness意为“苦涩”，用taste与之搭配，表示“品尝苦涩的滋味”。
2．A 从上文可知，“我”现在读高中了，所以“不如我好”是初中的事。
3．C 母亲因为某个以前不如“我”的女孩超过了“我”而总是责备“我”，“我”回到家不与母亲说话是因为受不了(can't stand)她的喋喋不休的责怪。
4．D “我”做得好的时候，母亲只是说“不要骄傲，某某比你做得更好”。
5．C 母亲在“我”做得好的时候告诫“我”不要骄傲。
6．A 与上文的“When I do a good job”形成对比，即“如果某件事情做得糟糕”。选项B和C不符合语境和常理。
7．B 无论“我”表现好还是不好，母亲总是觉得别的女孩比“我”做得出色，因此“我”需要跟母亲敞开心扉交流。
8．D 母亲并没有意识到“我”对她的所作所为不满，而是认为这一切都是为“我”好，由此可判断出她对“我们”之间的交流反应冷淡。
9．A 从下一句“我只是给自己信心”可知，“我”并没有骄傲。
10．B 从回信中的“To communicate...”可以看出“我”和母亲存在的问题是“交流”，而不是“谈话”。
11．A 要分析(analyze)的是原因，即“为什么”会落后。
12．B 前后两个一般疑问句表示选择，用or连接。
13．B “who is always at the __13__ ”是定语从句，修饰 an outstanding person, at the top 表达的意思与outstanding 相似。这里指班级中学习顶尖的学生。
14．B 第二句“依然”可以做得好，符合逻辑。
15．D 需要与之沟通的人是“我”的母亲，从回信人的角度则是“你的母亲”。
16．A 问母亲她是否有过与“我”相似的经历，即是否有人曾经“超越”(surpass)过她。
17．C realize 意为“实现”，四个选项中只有dream能与之搭配。
18．D 父母希望子女实现他们未曾实现的梦想，这种情况很普遍。
19．B seek在这里意思是“追求”，与success搭配，表示“追求成功”。
20．C 母亲对“我”的苛求是因为她希望“我”能够更加努力地学习，但她不知道如何才能有效地学习。
Ⅳ.1.A 句意理解题。由第二段第二句中的．.. as nervous as you are (和你一样紧张)可知答案。
2．B 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句话中的as they're experienced in helping new students 可知答案。
3．C 细节理解题。本文未涉及⑤句内容，故选C项。
4．C 细节理解题。文章未涉及着装方面内容。故选C项。
5．D 目的意图题。本文主要介绍新生如何适应开学后第一周的生活。故D项符合作者的写作意图。

A couple from Miami, Bill and Simone Butler, spent sixty-six days in a life-raft(救生艇) in the seas of Central America after their boat sank.
Twenty-one days after they left Panama in their boat, Simony, they met some whales(鲸鱼). “They started to hit the side of the boat，” said Bill, “and then suddenly we heard water.” Two minutes later, the boat was sinking. They jumped into the life-raft and watched the boat go under the water.
For twenty days they had tins of food, biscuits, and bottles of water. They also had a fishing-line and a machine to make salt water into drinking water—two things which saved their lives. They caught eight to ten fish a day and ate them raw(生的). Then the line broke. “So we had no more fish until something very strange happened. Some sharks(鲨鱼) came to feed, and the fish under the raft were afraid and came to the surface. I caught them with my hands.”
About twenty ships passed them, but no one saw them. After fifty days at sea their life-raft was beginning to break up. Then suddenly it was all over. A fishing boat saw them and picked them up. They couldn't stand up. So the captain carried them onto his boat and took them to Costa Rica. Their two months at sea was over.

5．tolerate 6.fault 7.upset 8.deserves 9.defend 10.behavior

2．C 考查状语从句的省略。句意：尽管见到我们很惊讶，教授还是热情地欢迎了我们。补充完整后为Though he was surprised to see us，...。当主从句主语相同且从句中含有be动词时，则可省略从句中的主语和be动词。
3．B 句意：既然你对那已有点了解，为什么不再做些研究呢？now that意为“既然”，符合句意。
4．C 句意：——比利，你为什么食言？——对不起，亲爱的，不过我确实忘了该在什么地方见你。be supposed to do sth.表示“应该做某事”。

9．B 考查固定搭配。句意：不要对那个男孩太严厉，他本来并不打算那样做。be hard on是固定短语，意为“对……严厉，对……苛刻”；mean当“打算”讲时，应接不定式作宾语，故选B。

10．D 推理判断题。由最后一段After fifty days at sea...我们知道：the couple是太虚弱所以不能站起来，是由船长carried them onto his boat, 而救生艇早在出事后的50天就坏掉了，而不是获救当天坏的，所以A、B、C都可以排除，D项为正确选项。
