Don't Let Your Job Search Depress You
如果你现在正在找工作，花费的时间肯定比你想象的要漫长。花费大量时间找工作，还是找不到，所以就不免感到受挫，甚至心碎。那么怎样保持昂扬的斗志呢？请阅读本文，从中找到答案。
If you are looking for a job right now，it is certain to take longer than you would like.And because the job search takes longer and has no result，you are frustrated，even heart-broken.So how do you keep your spirits up in such a tough environment? I asked this question of several people，including Lila.
The best advice Lila gave was to manage your feelings.Becoming negative，cynical(愤世嫉俗)，or depressed will work against you.When you get angry with yourself，it shows，Lila says.Don't believe you can easily pretend energy and enthusiasm.Most interviewers will pick up your real feelings.
Actively manage your feelings so that you actually are happy，focused，and energetic.Of course，this is not easy.Here are some changes that should help in this culture of rejection：
Be your own good manager.Since searching for a job is indeed a full-time job in itself，manage yourself appropriately.Bad managers are never satisfied，setting impossible goals and then punishing people for not finishing them.Instead，set reasonable weekly goals for networking，researching，or applying for jobs.Reward yourself for achieving your goals or doing something difficult.And never beat up on yourself for doing things wrong or not doing enough，the way a bad manager would.The people around you should be good managers too—encourage them to be supportive.
Don't just sit there，doing nothing.This means getting out of the house.Take a class.Join a professional group—they generally have special benefits for unemployed members.Check a few things off your list.Do anything that will get you out，teach you something new，connect you with new people，and perhaps become a new line on your resume(简历)．
Keep to a routine.Manage your time as if you were working.Keep a regular schedule for researching new positions，following up，and volunteering.Work in exercise — you'll look and feel better.A daily and weekly schedule will provide the structure that will enable you to have a sense of accomplishment.
【诱思导学】

3．What's the benefit of keeping a daily and weekly schedule?
【答案】 1.Manage your feelings.
2．Reward yourself.
3．It will provide the structure that will enable you to have a sense of accomplishment.

强调句型由“It is/was＋被强调部分＋that/who＋其他”构成。强调人时可用that/who，强调其他任何部分时只能用that。被强调的部分可以是单词、短语，也可以是从句，但结构必须完整。被强调的成分可以是主语、宾语和状语，但不能是定语或谓语。
It is I who am right.正确的是我。(主语)
It was him that we met at the school gate.
我们在校门口遇见的是他。(宾语)
It was in the park that Tom lost his watch.
正是在公园里汤姆把他的手表弄丢了。(状语)
在使用强调句型时须注意的几个问题：
①原句子是现在时或将来时，强调句用It is ＋ 被强调的部分 ＋ that (who)．..；若原句子是过去时，强调句用：It was ＋ 被强调的部分 ＋ that (who)．..
②在强调not...until结构中的时间状语时，应将not移到until前，再将not until部分移到被强调的位置。
③强调主语时，who 或that后面的谓语形式须与被强调的主语保持一致。
I didn't go to bed until twelve o'clock last night.→It was not until twelve o'clock last night that I went to bed.
昨天晚上我一直到十二点才睡。
【对接高考】
(2013·重庆高考)It was with the help of the local guide
the mountain climber was rescued.
A．who B．that
C．when D．how
【解析】 句意：正是在当地导游的帮助下那位爬山者获救了。这是一个It is/was...that...强调句型。判断的标准是：把It is/was和that去掉，然后调整句子的顺序看句子是否成立。如果成立，就是强调句型，反之则不是。而本题将It was和that去掉并调整顺序后为“The mountain climber was rescued with the help of the local guide.”，句子完整无缺，因此是强调句型，所以答案为B。
【答案】 B
对画线部分进行强调
I studied at this school a few years ago.

⑥
【答案】 ④It was I that/who studied at this school a few years ago.

[自我总结]
1．习语的含义与其中单个单词的意思往往 。习语通常用于 语言中。
2．英语习语常用作 ，所以在理解句意时要注意习语的翻译。
3．习语在描述情景、表达 、激发情绪和 方面比非习语词汇显得更加有效、生动，更让人产生联想、加深印象。
【答案】 1.不一样；非正式 2.比喻 3.思想；想象力
习 语
英语习语是英语中使用最普遍、表达力最强、文化内涵最丰富的一部分，它是人们从口头和著作中提炼出来的，是英语语言的精粹。英语习语指英语中长期习用的、表达完整意义的、结构定型的固定表达。
一、英语习语的来源
1．源于历史故事或历史事件。如：burn one's boats，相传古罗马恺撒等名将出征时，常烧毁船只，士兵们后退无路，只有勇往直前，战胜敌人。与汉语中的破釜沉舟意义很相近。
2．源于《圣经》或神话故事。《圣经》中有很多关于耶稣，撒旦以及一些发人深省的故事，因受到英美国家人民的喜爱而广为流传，成为大量英语习语的来源。如：Achilles' heel (唯一致命的弱点)，meet one's Waterloo(一败涂地)，a Pandora's box (潘多拉之盒，即灾难、麻烦、祸害的根源)，Sphinx's riddle(斯芬克司之谜，比喻难解之谜)，As wise as Solomon (像所罗门一样聪明，比喻非常富有智慧等)。还有一些习语源于神话故事或传说，如：to act the part of a Trojan Horse这句习语的Trojan Horse即出自于希腊神话，古希腊人攻打特洛伊城，久攻不下，于是留下一个内藏有士兵的木马，木马被特洛伊人当做战利品拉入城内，深夜希腊人与木马内士兵里应外合，打下了特洛伊城。现在Trojan Horse被作为用意是对手上当，误以为于己有益的破坏的人或事。
3．源于风俗人情，日常生活。海在英国文化背景中扮演着重要的角色，因此很多英语习语都跟海有关系。如：at the sea(茫然，困惑)。同时，人们日常生活中存在着大量日积月累的宝贵的文化资源，英语习语作为一种独特的语言形式，形象地反映出人们平时衣食住行的风俗人情，如：He was a drug addict and went to pot at last.(他吸毒成瘾最后走上了毁灭之路。)其中习语go to pot (变坏，毁灭)是讲人们在饭后将剩菜倒入桶里，意指“无用了”。
二、英语习语的分类
英语习语按词性分可分为动词性习语、名词性习语、形容词性习语以及副词性习语。
1．动词性习语
fall by the way 中途遇见某人
go easy 安闲，从容
laugh off one's head笑破肚皮
hang by a hair千钧一发
grasp at a straw抓救命稻草
hang in the balance未见分晓
2．名词性习语
flesh and blood 亲属
a drop in the ocean沧海一粟
fish in the air白费力气
money like water挥金如土
a stone's throw一箭之遥
3．形容词性习语
high and weight 趾高气昂的
as poor as a church mouse家贫如洗
as easy as falling off a log极其容易
as plain as the day显而易见
4．副词性习语
heart and soul全心全意的
all at sea不知所措
for good永远
in luck幸运
三、英汉习语中所反映的文化差异
1．生存环境的差异
习语的产生与人们的劳动和生活密切相关。英国是一个岛国，历史上航海业曾一度领先世界；而汉民族在亚洲大陆生活繁衍，人们的生活离不开土地。比喻花钱浪费，大手大脚，英语是spend money like water，而汉语是“挥金如土”。英语中有许多关于船和水的习语，在汉语中没有完全相同的对应习语，如to rest on one's oars(暂时歇一歇)，to keep one's head above water(摆脱困难)，all at sea(不知所措)等等。
在汉语的文化氛围中，“东风”即是“春天的风”，夏天常与酷暑炎热联系在一起，“赤日炎炎似火烧”、“骄阳似火”是常被用来描述夏天的词语。而英国地处西半球，北温带，海洋性气候，报告春天消息的却是西风，英国著名诗人雪莱的《西风颂》正是对春的讴歌。英国的夏季正是温馨宜人的季节，常与“可爱”、“温和”、“美好”相连。
2．习俗差异
英汉习俗差异是多方面的，最典型的莫过于在对狗这种动物的态度上。狗在汉语中是一种卑微的动物。汉语中与狗有关的习语大都含有贬义：“狐朋狗党”、“狗急跳墙”、“狼心狗肺”、“狗腿子”等，尽管近些年来养宠物狗的人数大大增加，狗的“地位”似乎有所改变，但狗的贬义形象却深深地留在汉语言文化中。而在西方英语国家，狗被认为是人类最忠诚的朋友。英语中有关狗的习语除了一部分因受其他语言的影响而含有贬义外，大部分都没有贬义。在英语习语中，常以狗的形象来比喻人的行为。如You are a lucky dog(你是一个幸运儿)，Every dog has his day(凡人皆有得意日)，Old dog will not learn new tricks(老人学不了新东西)等等。形容人“病得厉害”用sick as a dog，“累极了”是dog-tired。与此相反，中国人十分喜爱猫，用“馋猫”比喻人贪嘴，常有亲昵的成分，而在西方文化中，“猫”被用来比喻“包藏祸心的女人”。
3．宗教信仰方面
与宗教信仰有关的习语也大量地出现在英汉语言中。佛教传入中国已有一千多年的历史，人们相信有“佛主”在左右着人世间的一切，与此有关的习语很多，如“借花献佛”、“闲时不烧香，临时抱佛脚”等。在西方许多国家，特别是在英美，人们信奉基督教，相关的习语如God helps those who help themselves(上帝帮助自助的人)，也有go to hell(下地狱去)这样的诅咒。

As a child I was always counseled by parents and teachers to study hard，work diligently and get good grades.Of course 28 goes without saying that the “good jobs” were well?payed jobs and all of us had to aim for those.No one ever asked us what actually wanted to do.It was all about working hard，studying，then getting a job and making money.
All I wanted to do was reading novels and writing them， 29 creative writing is not something that is encouraged.It does not ensure a five?figure salary.I was brainwashed all 30 school to become a doctor and even pushed into taking science in high school.I know many people 31 sing well，are wonderful painters of the most awesome cooks 32 were not allowed to pursue their talents as a vocation.Their true purposes，their 33 vocation are forgotten.
A true vocation is something that is sheer joy.It sets the soul on fire.It is a pleasure to watch a person who is motivated by his 34 self.I once had the pleasure of watching a few young people singing and playing 35 guitar on a hillside.The pure joy on their faces and in the music they made was wonderful.
Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (30 marks)
A
Everyone has dreams，but few believe they can actually achieve them.However，some people achieve their dreams while others live lives of regret.Some are inspired and follow through，while others delay or give up entirely on their dreams in exchange for whatever excuses they comfort themselves with.
Here are three simple steps you can take to help you realize your dreams：
1．Motivations.Everyone has their own motivations for their dreams.Consider what motivates you to achieve your goals.It could be financial freedom，more free time，or a second home in the Caribbean.Whatever it is，remind yourself of it on a daily basis.
For example，having pictures of your dream Caribbean home hung on the fridge or in your work space will remind you of your dream and refresh your mind with motivation.
2．Planning.Although developing a systematic plan is necessary if you want to achieve your goals，many people overlook (忽视) this process and then wonder why they aren't moving forward toward their goals.Be sure to take the time to plan your path for greater success!
Once you have a broad plan，you must allow for all the details.Put it down on paper，even if it's an emotional or psychological life goal，and determine the necessary steps to make that goal a reality.Then put a time frame on it.Put_all_excuses_aside_with_a_finite_deadline_for_each_step.
Be realistic of your own competencies (能力)．Creating a practical plan with a deadline will bring your dreams to life.Setting definable little goals to achieve on the way to your desired large goal will enable you to follow your plan through to success.
3．Action：No dream or goal can be achieved without action.If you've developed your plan as recommended，you will see that there are a number of little steps you must take on a daily basis that will further you on your path to your ultimate (最终的)goal.
36．Why do some people feel regret in their life?
A．They don't believe in themselves.
B．They fail to achieve their dreams.
C．They lack courage and determination.
D．They lack great ambitions to succeed.
37．The purpose of writing the article is ________.
A．to offer tips on how to make plans
B．to instruct readers how to take action
C．to tell readers to live lives to the fullest
D．to tell readers how to realize their dreams
38．You are advised to hang a picture on the fridge in order to ________.
A．make yourself motivated by your goal
B．keep your mind off your dreamed relax
C．remind yourself of the possible obstacles
D．decorate your home with colorful pictures
39．A lot of people don't make much progress because ________.
A．they don't have a definite goal
B．they don't make a plan in advance
C．they don't want to make efforts
D．they don't care about the process
40．What does the author mean by saying “Put all excuses aside with a finite deadline for each step.”？
A．Actions speak louder than words.
B．It is really difficult to meet a deadline.
C．Make sure you reach the goal as planned.
D．Don't worry too much about the deadline.

An increase in students applying to study economics at university is being attributed to (归因于)the global economic crisis awakening a public thirst for knowledge about how the financial system works.
Applications for degree courses beginning this autumn were up by 15% this January，according to UCAS，the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service.A spokesman for the Royal Economic Society said applications to do economics at Alevel were also up.
Professor John Beath，the president of the society and a leading lecturer at St Andrews University，said his first?year lectures—which are open to students from all departments—were drawing crowds of 400，rather than the usual 250.
“There are a large number of students who are not economics majors，who would like to learn something about it.One of the things I have done this year is to relate my teaching to contemporary events in a way that one hasn't traditionally done，” he added.
University applications rose 7% last year，but there were rises above average in several subjects.Nursing saw a 15% jump，with people's renewed interest in careers in the pubic sector (部门)，which are seen as more secure in economic crisis.
A recent study showed almost two thirds of parents believed schools should do more to teach pupils about financial matters，and almost half said their children had asked them what was going on，although a minority of parents felt they did not understand it themselves well enough to explain.
Zack Hocking，the head of Child Trust Funds，said：“It's possible that one good thing to arise from the downturn will be a generation that's financially wiser and better equipped to manage their money through times of economic uncertainty.”
41．Professor John Beath's lectures are ________.
A．given in a traditional way
B．connected with the present situation
C．open to both students and their parents
D．warmly received by economists
42．Careers in the public sector are more attractive because of their ________.
A．greater stability B．higher pay
C．fewer applications D．better reputation
43．In the opinion of most parents，________.
A．economics should be the focus of school teaching
B．more students should be admitted to universities
C．the teaching of financial matters should be strengthened
D．children should solve financial problems themselves
44．According to Hocking，the global economic crisis might make the youngsters ________.
A．wiser in money management
B．have access to better equipment
C．confident about their future careers
D．get jobs in Child Trust Funds
45．What's the main idea of the text?
A．Universities have received more applications.
B．Economics is attracting an increasing number of students.
C．College students benefit a lot from economic uncertainty.
D．Parents are concerned with children's subject selection.

Some people drink too much alcohol at New Year's Eve celebrations.This can lead to tragic results if a person drinks too much and then drives a car.The National Safety Council says hundreds of people die in road accidents during the holiday.
In recent years，the danger of accidents has resulted in a new tradition called the “designated driver”．One person among a group of friends drinks little or no alcohol during New Year's Eve celebrations.Then this designated driver can safely drive the other people home.Many American cities also offer free taxi service on New Year's Eve to take people home safely.
Other Americans observe the coming of the New Year at events without alcohol.More than 220 American cities hold these First Night celebrations.Artists in Boston，Masssachusetts started the tradition of First Night celebrations.In 1976，they wanted to observe the coming of a New Year.But they did not want to hold noisy drinking parties.So they organized music concerts，art exhibitions and other events to observe the holiday.

Section B (10 marks)
One?room schools are part of the United States，and the mention of them makes people feel a vague longing for “the way things were”．
One?room schools are an endangered species.However，for more than a hundred years one?room schools have been systematically shut down and their students sent away to centralized schools.As recently as 1930 there were 149,000 one?room schools in the United States.By 1970 there were 1,800.Today，of the nearly 800 remaining one?room schools，more than 350 are in Nebraska.The rest are scattered through a few other states that have on their road maps wide?spaces between towns.
Now that there are hardly any left，educators are beginning to think that maybe there is something yet to be learned from one?room schools，something served the pioneers that might serve as well today.
Progressive educators have come up with progressive?sounding names like “peer?group teaching” and “multi?age grouping” for educational procedures that occur naturally in the one?room schools.In one?room schools the children teach each other because the teacher is busy part of the time teaching someone else.A fourth grader can work at a fifth?grade level in math and a third?grade level in English without the shame associated with being left back or the pressures of being skipped ahead.A youngster with a learning disability can find his or her own level without being separated from the other pupils.In larger urban schools today，this is called “mainstreaming”．A few hours in a small school that has only one classroom and it becomes clear why so many parents feel it one of the advantages of living in Nebraska that their children have to go to a one?room school.

综合检测(二)
1．B not only位于句首，句子用部分倒装，故选B。
2．C even though“尽管”；ever since“从那以后”；now that“既然”；even as“甚至当……时候”。
3．C 考查动词短语辨析。句意：我们刚搬进一套大一点的房子，有很多要做的事情。让我们开始做吧。keep up with跟上，赶上；do away with废除，去掉；get down to 开始，着手；look forward to 期望，期盼。
4．B 句意：我去的不早，结果我没有得到一个好位子。此空需一个引导结果状语从句的连词，所以选B。
5．B 根据句意是向对方介绍那个男孩，所以此空应为B项。
6．D 句意：我们要努力工作，否则我们无法按时完成工作。so意为“所以”；therefore意为“因此，所以”；lest意为“以 免，唯恐”；otherwise意为“否则”，由句意可知D项正确。
7．A 考查定语从句。句意：在最近一次去英国的旅游中，我们参观了科技博物馆，它是伦敦的旅游景点之一。which引导非限制性定语从句，在定语从句中作visited 的宾语，修饰先行词the Science Museum。that 不引导非限制性定语从句；what不引导定语从句；where是关系副词。
8．A 本题考查强调句型：It is/was＋被强调部分＋that＋其他部分。句意：直到快写到信的结尾的时候，她才提到了自己的计划。句中被强调的部分是时间状语not until near the end of the letter。
9．A rather than而不是；more than不仅仅；other than除了；less than 不到，根据句意选A项。
10．B 句意：只有主编来了，才有可能解决这个问题。“Only＋状语”放在句首时，主句需要部分倒装，但要注意作状语的从句不能倒装。
11．B 句意：这位著名的音乐家和他的学生被邀请为2012年台北花卉展的开幕式表演。“被邀请”是一个发生在过去的动作，而且不表示对现在造成了影响，也不表示动作持续到现在，所以不能选用完成时。根据主谓一致的语法规则，A as well as B作主语时，遵循“就前原则”，也就是说谓语动词要和A保持一致。也可以理解为本句的主语是A而不是B，所以本题谓语动词的数要和the famous musician保持一致，用was invited。
12．C 考查介词辨析。句意：我熟悉这座城市，因此我不会迷路。sb.be familiar with sth.某人熟悉某事。
13．B 考查连词。这里是说“你知道邵先生来学校有多长时间了吗”？
14．B 句意：考虑到他的社会地位，我们很难反对他加入到我们到西部执教的队伍中来。considering介词，“考虑到，就……而论”；oppose“反对，反抗”。
15．C 句意：他们承诺，无论可能有什么困难，到今年底都要开发出一个软件包。本题是一个主从复合句，由句意“无论”可知是让步状语从句，从而排除选项B，D项。从句中的关键词是实义动词have，用还原法，可知是短语have difficulty，所以从句为whatever difficulty they might have。如果选B，则从句要改为：however difficult it might be。
16．C 他在2000年就梦想着上大学。
17．D graduate from...毕业于……。
18. A gifted有天赋的，有才能的。
19．A 生活似乎不公平，但他没有放弃。

26．A 八年的努力奋斗结束了，但新的挑战又开始了。
27．B 他想努力地学习，赢得更多的奖学金。
28．it 29.but 30.through 31.who 32.but
33．true 34.own 35.the
36．B 细节理解题。根据第一段的内容可知，有些人生活在后悔之中是因为他们没能够实现自己的理想。
37．D 主旨大意题。结合全文的内容和第二段的“Here are three simple steps you can take to help you realize your dreams”可知，本文写作的目的是告诉读者如何实现自己的理想。
38．A 推理判断题。根据文章的第三、四段的内容可知，在冰箱上或工作的地方悬挂一张图片的目的是每天提醒自己不要忘记自己的梦想。
39．B 推理判断题。根据第五段内容可知，如果要想实现自己的目标，制订系统的计划是非常必要的。许多人忽略了制订计划这一步，所以他们发现自己没有进展。
40．C 猜测句意题。结合上下文可知，画线的句意为：不要找任何借口，要按照计划完成预先设定的目标。C项的陈述符合此意。
41．B 细节理解题。根据第四段“One of the things I have done this year is to relate my teaching to contemporary events in a way that one hasn't traditionally done.”可知。
42．A 细节理解题。根据第五段“which are seen as more secure in economic crisis”可推知，一些公共部门的职业在经济危机中的安全性是其吸引人们的原因。
43．C 推理判断题。由倒数第二段“A recent study showed almost two thirds of parents believed schools should do more to teach pupils about financial matters...”可知大部分家长认为学校应该多教孩子一些关于经济问题的知识。
44．A 推理判断题。由最后一段的叙述可知经过经济危机后，年轻人在金融管理方面会更睿智。
45．B 主旨大意题。纵观全文叙述可知，经济危机使得学生更关心经济管理，也吸引了大批的学生关心和学习相关知识。
46．C 细节理解题。第1、3、4点中都提到了对手指力度的训练，第2点主要让学生熟悉键盘，故选C项。

I'm a single mom looking for a job.One morning I had grabbed my favorite spot at a local Starbucks and was going through the newspaper when I noticed a man in ragged clothing looking really unkempt(不整洁的)．I felt led to speak to this man and so I did.
I learned that he was homeless and just wandered from place to place.Starbucks was nice enough to allow him to come in from the cold or the heat depending on the day.I also learned that he used to be an architect，but as we spoke I saw more and more that he wasn't at the fullest of mental capabilities，which made me even more upset that he didn't have a place to go.
I sat with this man for a very long time in Starbucks calling different clinics，hospitals，shelters，police departments.He even gave me a beat up business card of a gentleman saying that was his son's phone number.It was an out-of-state number，but I called anyway but was not able to reach him.Unfortunately，all the places I called were unable to take him.
I asked if he was hungry and he said yes，so I went down the street to a deli and ordered a sandwich and drink.When I got back，my new found buddy became angry for a reason I was not aware of or maybe it was some sort of mental disturbance.All I could do was set the sandwich down and tell him that I'll leave it there for him if he wanted it and I left.I walked around the town for a couple of minutes and then headed back to see if he was still there.
A man who was sitting in Starbucks most of the time when I was there came out and told me that the man ate the sandwich and that he was touched that I had sat with him like I did.It seems to me that no matter if something go away on the surface，there is always something beautiful at a deeper level.
36．The author of the passage________.
A．was out of work
B．had a big family
C．looked really unkempt
D．was a homeless person
37．The author stayed with the man for a very long time to________.
A．find him a place to go
B．wait for his son's number
C．order him something to eat
D．prevent him from being hurt
38．The man became angry because________.
A．he can't reach his son for long
B．he must have some mental disease
C．he was hungry so much
D．he didn't want the author to leave

John Apollos is losing weight in the old-fashioned way—by eating less.A whole lot less.As a volunteer in the two-year Comprehensive Assessment of Long-Term Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy(CALERIE) study at Tufts University in Boston，Apollos has lowered his daily caloric intake 25% over the past eight months.The fat，not surprisingly，has melted away；the 52-year-old physical trainer has lost more than 11 kg since the study began and is down to his high school weight.
But that's not the real reason that Apollos and the other participants in the program are eating only three-quarters of what they used to.The researchers running the multicenter CALERIE study are trying to determine whether restricting food intake can slow the aging process and extend our life span.“I feel better and lighter and healthier，” says Apollos.“But if it could help you live longer，that would be pretty amazing.”
The idea is counterintuitive(反直觉的)：If we eat to live，how can starving ourselves add years to our lives? Yet decades of calorie-restriction studies involving organisms ranging from microscopic yeast to rats have shown just that，extending the life spans of the semistarved as much as 50%.Last July a long-term study led by researchers at the University of Wisconsin pushed the implications of this a bit closer to our species，finding that calorie restriction seemed to extend the lives of humanlike rhesus monkeys as well.The hungry primates fell victim to diabetes，heart and brain disease and cancer much less frequently than their well-fed counterparts did.
But there may be more than just the absence of disease operating here.Anytime you go on a diet，after all，you stand a good chance of lowering your blood pressure，cholesterol level and risk of diabetes and other health woes.All that can translate into extra years.With calorie restriction—usually defined as a diet with 25% to 30% fewer calories than normal but still containing essential nutrients—something else appears to be at work to extend longevity.
Finding out what that something is—and determining if it works in people—is what CALERIE is all about.By putting people on a carefully reduced diet for two years，investigators hope to home in on the biological mechanism that links eating less to living longer.They will also explore whether such a strict diet is even feasible in the overweight U．S.
39．Who is John Apollos according to the passage?
A．He is a student of Tufts University.
B．He is one of the researchers of CALERIE.
C．He is an expert of Tufts University.
D．He is a volunteer in one of the studies taken by CALERIE.
40．What do they take the study for?
A．They want to make sure whether people can lose weight by eating less.
B．They want to know if people can live longer by eating less.
C．They want to find out what are healthy foods.
D．They want to know what people should eat to live longer.
41．What does the underlined word in the fourth paragraph mean?
A．Goodness. B．Diseases.
C．Conditions. D．Wealth.
42．What does the author write the first paragraph for?
A．To show John Apollos' great achievement to readers.
B．To tell a story to readers to make the passage more vivid.
C．To draw readers' attention and then lead them to the survey.
D．To tell people what John Apollos has experienced.

What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others.These may show strengths that you can use in your work.A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career.A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work.So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school.On the other hand，you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard.Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job，they may have indirect value.A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details.This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.
Your school may have taught you skills，such as typing or technical drawing，which you can use in your work.You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills.If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer，think what you gained from it.If nothing else，you may have learned how to get to work on time，to follow instructions and to get on with older workers.You may have learned to give correct change in a shop，for example.Just as important，you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.
Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself.You may be_all_thumbs when you handle tools；perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures.It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist.Your school record，for instance，may not be too good，yet it is an important part of your background.You should not be apologetic(认错的) about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.
43．What is the passage mainly about?
A．The importance of working hard at school.
B．Choosing a career according to one's strengths.
C．How to face one's weakness.
D．The value of school work.
44．The writer thinks that a student have a part-time job is probably________.
A．a good way to find out his weak points
B．one of the best ways of earning extra money
C．of great use for his work in the future
D．a waste of time he could have spent on study
45．The underlined phrase “be all thumbs” (in para 3) probably means“________”．
A．be clumsy at doing things
B．be skillful in doing things
C．be not interested in certain things
D．be easily bored in doing things

For three days a fierce winter storm had traveled 1,500 miles across the North Pacific from Alaska.In the foothills of the Sierras in the town of Grass Valley，California，the streets were flooded.At the small church，the heavy rain and high winds beat against the windows with a violence that Father O'Malley had never before heard.
In his tiny bedroom，O'Malley was writing Sunday's sermon by candlelight.Out of the darkness，the phone in his office rang.As he picked up the phone，a voice quickly asked，Is that Father O'Malley?
“Yes.”
“I'm calling from the hospital in Auburn，” said a concerned female voice.“We have a heavily ill patient who is asking us to get someone to give him his last rites (临终祈祷)．Can you come quickly？”
“I'll try my best to make it，” O'Malley answered.
The trip was only 30 miles，but it took him two hours to reach the hospital.
“I'm so glad you could get here，” said the night nurse.“The man called Tom has been an alcoholic for years，and his liver has finally given out.He lives up in the woods，and no one around here knows much about him.”
In the soft night-light of the room，it was as though his life was already gone.
“Hello，Tom.I'm Father O'Malley.I was passing by and thought we could talk a bit before you go to sleep for the night.”
Tom replied，“I know my deal is done and it's my turn to go.Now get on with it.”
“Patience，” said Father O'Malley，and he began to say the prayers of the last rites.
After the “Amen”，Tom moved a little，and he seemed to want to talk.
“Would you like to make your confession(忏悔)？”O'Malley asked him.
“Absolutely not，” Tom answered.“But I_would_like_to_just_talk_with_you_a_bit，before_I_go.”
After a couple of hours，Tom suddenly said，“Father，when I was young，I did something that was so bad that I've never told anyone about it.It was so bad that I haven't spent a single day since without thinking about it and reliving the horror.”
“Don't you think it would be good for you to tell me about it？” O'Malley asked.
“Even now，I still can't talk about what I did，” Tom said.After a while，he sadly said，“Okay.It's too late for anyone to do anything to me now，so I guess I might as well tell you.”
“I worked as a switchman(扳道工) on the railroad all my life，until I retired a few years ago and moved up here to the woods.Thirty-two years，two months and 11 days ago，I was working in Bakersfield on a night kind of like tonight.”
Tom's face became intense.“It happened during a bad winter storm with a lot of rain.I guess I was more drunk than I thought I was because I pushed that switch in the wrong direction.At 45 miles an hour my train slammed into a passenger car at the next crossing and killed a young man，his wife and their two daughters.”
“I have had to live with my being the cause of their deaths every day since then.”
There was a long moment of silence as Tom's confession of this tragedy hung in the air.After what seemed like ages，Father O'Malley gently put his hand on Tom's shoulder and said very quietly，“If I can forgive you，God can forgive you，because in that car were my mother，my father and my two older sisters.”
46．Why does Tom remember so clearly about the day of the accident?
A．Because of the bad weather.
B．Because he was working on the railroad.
C．Because his carelessness caused the accident.
D．Because he drove the train and killed the family.
47．What can you learn from Father O'Malley's words in the last paragraph?
A．He can forgive Tom because he is one member of the family.
B．He suffered much more than God because he lost his family.
C．God will not forgive Tom unless he forgives Tom first.
D．Tom needn't feel guilty any more because his family has forgiven him.
48．What can you infer from the passage?
A．Tom has had a house in the woods the whole of his life.
B．Tom makes many friends after retirement to relieve his horror.
C．Tom has realized the fact that he will die tonight.
D．No one survived in the terrible accident.
49．What does the underlined sentence mean?
A．Tom wants to chat with Father O'Malley before sleeping.
B．Tom wants to tell Father O'Malley his secret before his death.
C．Tom wants to talk with Father O'Malley before his death.
D．Tom wants to talk with Father O'Malley before coming out of hospital.
50．The aim of the passage is to ask people________.
A．never to keep the guilt in the dark but to admit it bravely.
B．never to drink before working or driving on the road.
C．to make confession bravely before they die.
D．to be kind and forgiving to those worn by their guilt.
Ⅳ.任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
A newly-established line of research suggests that relationships can keep us healthier.And a new study finds those social connections may also help us live longer.
This new study combined a large number of previous studies and concluded that a lack of social interactions ranks right up with smoking，obesity(肥胖)，and alcoholism as a risk factor for death.
Researchers from Brigham Young University analyzed 148 studies with a total of some 300,000 participants，tracking their social relationships and whether they survived to the end of their particular study，which averaged about seven years.
“Those who scored higher on those measures of social relationships were 50 percent more likely to be alive at that follow-up than people who scored low on those measures，” said Professor Julianne Holt-Lunstad，one of the authors of the study.
She pointed out several relationships can affect our health.They can help us cope with stress.They can help us maintain healthy habits like eating well，exercising or seeing a doctor.And there's increasing research that shows a direct but poorly-understood link between relationships and physiological(生理的)processes in the body.
“So for instance，our relationships have been linked to lower blood pressure，better immune(免疫的) functioning，and even inflammatory(发炎的)processes that are implicated in a number of diseases，” said Holt-Lunstad.“And so our relationships can influence our health in a variety of ways that are all very important.”
Even though Holt-Lunstad and her colleagues looked at almost 150 different scientific studies，most of them didn't assess the quality of the relationships.
“And certainly relationship quality matters，and not all relationships are entirely positive，”she conceded.“And so it's possible that the effects that we have reported may be a conservative estimate，and that the odds of survival associated with high-quality relationships may actually be larger.”
Speaking via Skype，Julianne Holt-Lunstad said her research suggests that policy makers need to consider relationships as a health issue.

综合检测(二)
1．B not only位于句首，句子用部分倒装，故选B。
2．C even though“尽管”；ever since“从那以后”；now that“既然”；even as“甚至当……时候”。
3．C 考查动词短语辨析。句意：我们刚搬进一套大一点的房子，有很多要做的事情。让我们开始做吧。keep up with跟上，赶上；do away with废除，去掉；get down to 开始，着手；look forward to 期望，期盼。
4．B 句意：我去的不早，结果我没有得到一个好位子。此空需一个引导结果状语从句的连词，所以选B。
5．B 根据句意是向对方介绍那个男孩，所以此空应为B项。
6．D 句意：我们要努力工作，否则我们无法按时完成工作。so意为“所以”；therefore意为“因此，所以”；lest意为“以 免，唯恐”；otherwise意为“否则”，由句意可知D项正确。
7．A 考查定语从句。句意：在最近一次去英国的旅游中，我们参观了科技博物馆，它是伦敦的旅游景点之一。which引导非限制性定语从句，在定语从句中作visited 的宾语，修饰先行词the Science Museum。that 不引导非限制性定语从句；what不引导定语从句；where是关系副词。
8．A 本题考查强调句型：It is/was＋被强调部分＋that＋其他部分。句意：直到快写到信的结尾的时候，她才提到了自己的计划。句中被强调的部分是时间状语not until near the end of the letter。
9．A rather than而不是；more than不仅仅；other than除了；less than 不到，根据句意选A项。
10．B 句意：只有主编来了，才有可能解决这个问题。“Only＋状语”放在句首时，主句需要部分倒装，但要注意作状语的从句不能倒装。
11．B 句意：这位著名的音乐家和他的学生被邀请为2012年台北花卉展的开幕式表演。“被邀请”是一个发生在过去的动作，而且不表示对现在造成了影响，也不表示动作持续到现在，所以不能选用完成时。根据主谓一致的语法规则，A as well as B作主语时，遵循“就前原则”，也就是说谓语动词要和A保持一致。也可以理解为本句的主语是A而不是B，所以本题谓语动词的数要和the famous musician保持一致，用was invited。
12．C 考查介词辨析。句意：我熟悉这座城市，因此我不会迷路。sb.be familiar with sth.某人熟悉某事。
13．B 考查连词。这里是说“你知道邵先生来学校有多长时间了吗”？
14．B 句意：考虑到他的社会地位，我们很难反对他加入到我们到西部执教的队伍中来。considering介词，“考虑到，就……而论”；oppose“反对，反抗”。
15．C 句意：他们承诺，无论可能有什么困难，到今年底都要开发出一个软件包。本题是一个主从复合句，由句意“无论”可知是让步状语从句，从而排除选项B，D项。从句中的关键词是实义动词have，用还原法，可知是短语have difficulty，所以从句为whatever difficulty they might have。如果选B，则从句要改为：however difficult it might be。
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章围绕主题“美国梦”讲述了作者的心理变化，作者遭遇了一系列的不幸后，在乡村的经历和体验让他对“美国梦”有了不同于以往的更为深刻的理解。
16．A 根据该句话的语境“跟其他所有人一样我想实现美国梦并且为此努力工作，我们所有人各自奋斗，目标相同”可知，应选separately“各自地，分别地”。equally“相等地，平等地”；violently“激烈地”；naturally“自然地”。
17．B 由本空前的“through a series of unhappy events”可知，作者经历了一系列的不幸之后，梦想破碎了。故应选fall apart“崩溃，破碎”。fall off“减少，跌落，变坏”；fall over“被……绊倒，意外地从……上跌落”；fall out“争吵，脱落，解散”。
18．D 此处语境为：穷困潦倒时，作者只好到乡村找了一个便宜的居所。此处搭配为search...for...“在……搜索……”。其余选项均不符合语境。
19．D 由“I had my truck and $ 56.”可知作者已经到了几乎身无分文的地步，带着身上仅有的56美元，作者只能以尽可能便宜的价格租下住所，故用cheapest。
20．C 此处语境为：作者找到了一座破旧的可以租赁的房子，位于西弗吉尼亚州的波托马克河对岸，沿着蜿蜒的山路向上四英里处。over在此处意为“在……的另一边”，又如：They live over the river in Richmond.他们住在河对面的里士满区。
21．B 由“a shabby house”“full of broken glass and rubbish”可知这是一座破旧的房子，到处都是玻璃碎片和垃圾，由此推测这里已被“遗弃”多时。abandoned“被放弃的，被遗弃的”，符合题意。occupied“已占用的，在使用的”；emptied“被清空的”；robbed“被抢劫的”。
22．C 作者找到房主租下房子后，必须先进行清理之后才能“camp in”，所以此空填cleared，即作者先“清理”了一个角落。turn“旋转，使改变方向”；approach“接近，走近，靠近”；cut“剪切，切成”。这三项均与语境不符。
23．A 句意：尽管当地人对我一无所知，但是慢慢地，他们开始教我……很显然前后是一种转折关系，故用but。although“尽管，虽然”，它的位置应该放在“The locals knew nothing about me...”之前；otherwise“否则，不然”；for“因为，由于”。
24．D 此处语境为：他们开始教我与邻居们相处的艺术。art“艺术，技能”，符合题意。benefit“利益，好处”；lesson“教训，经验”；nature“自然，天性”。这三项均与语境不符。
25．A 本题考查动词短语的意义辨析。stick around“逗留，停留”；look around“环视周围”；swing around“使转过”；turn around“(使)转身；(使)好转”。此处语境为：邻居们开始在此逗留与我聊天，故选A项。
26．C 文章第一段讲到了作者起初理解的美国梦是工作、按揭、信用卡和成功，而由空格后的“...not the one of individual achievement but of...”可知，现在信仰的是一个“不同的”美国梦，故选different。wild“野生的，野蛮的，狂野的”；real“真实的”；remote“偏僻的，遥远的”。
27．A 本段前面讲到邻居们教作者做邻居的艺术，给他提供了很多帮助，由此可知选neighborliness“友善，睦邻友好”，侧重指邻里关系。其余三项分别意为“幸福”“友好，亲切”“仁慈，好意”。
28．D 根据第一段所描述的美国梦的内容“a job，a mortgage(按揭)，credit cards，success”可知，作者原来认为这些东西是文明生活所必需的，故选necessary。unique“独特的”；expensive“昂贵的”；rare“稀少的”。这三项均不符合语境。
29．A 由第二段中“I came upon a shabby house four miles up a winding mountain road...”可知房子在山上，故选up。
30．B 句意：在这座山上，我最珍贵的财产是我和邻居们的关系(relationships)。cooperation“合作”；satisfaction“满意”；appointment“约会”。这三项均不符合语境。
31．C 解答该题的依据是第二段中的“I __18__ the countryside for some place...”及本段的“Four years later，I moved back into...”。与countryside相对的是town，故选C。reality“现实”；society“社会”；life“生活”。这三项均不符合语境。
32．B 该空前的“many people were having a really hard time”说明许多人正过着相当艰难的生活，可推测是“失去”了工作和家，故选losing。create“创造”；offer“提供”，明显不符合语境；quit只能和jobs搭配，不能和homes搭配。
33．C 本题考查对四个动词短语的意思的理解。put in“放进，提交，申请”；turn in“上交，拐入，告发”；take in“让……进入，接受，理解，欺骗”；get in“进入，收获，被录取”。此处说作者设法租了一个足够大的房子能让一些人住进来，因此选C。get in是指人主动进入，不符合语境。
34．B 此处语境为：如果我们不团结在一起，我们就都会流落到住收容所(shelters)的地步。yard“庭院”；camp“帐篷”；cottage“小屋，村舍”。这三项均不符合语境。
35．D 此处语境为：与其说美国梦在于自己能得到什么，不如说它在于我们所有人如何一起渡过难关。get by勉强度日，为固定搭配。about后面的从句不缺主语、宾语和表语，因此不选what；也没有“是否”(whether)的意思；也没有涉及时间(when)问题，因此只能选how。
【语篇解读】 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在寻找工作的路上遇到了一个无家可归的人。出于好心作者想给他找到一个去处，然而遇到了一些意料不到的事情。
36．A 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中I'm a single mom looking for a job可判断作者是没有工作的，因此选A。
37．A 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中I sat with this man for a very long time in Starbucks calling different clinics，hospitals，shelters，police departments可判断作者是为了给那个人找个去处。
38．B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中he wasn't at the fullest of mental capabilities以及倒数第二段中maybe it was some sort of mental disturbance可判断。
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，通过以John Apollos为例，说明了一项新的发现——吃得越少，活得越久。
39．D 细节理解题。由第一段第三句“As a volunteer in the two-year Comprehensive Assessment of Long-Term Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy(CALERIE)．..”可知，John Apollos是CALERIE进行的一项研究中的志愿者。
40．B 推理判断题。由第一段最后一句“The fat，not surprisingly，has melted away...”及第二段前两句“...trying to determine whether restricting food intake can slow the aging process and extend our life span。”可知，尽管志愿者通过减少进食量达到了减肥的效果，然而，这并不是研究人员的初衷，他们进行这项研究的目的在于弄清楚人类是否可以通过减少进食量而达到延缓衰老，延长寿命的目的。
41．C 猜测词义题。由画线单词前的“...lowering your blood pressure，cholesterol level and risk of diabetes...”可知，woe应该是指包括高血压，高胆固醇和糖尿病在内的糟糕的健康条件。其余说法不符合逻辑。
42．C 写作意图题。文章第一段以John Apollos亲身经历为例引起读者的兴趣，进而引入新的研究成果。其余说法或错误或片面，不符合作者意图。
43．B 全文讲的就是如何在选择职业的时候，应用在校期间学到的自己擅长的强项。
44．C 从第二段的第三句到这一段的结束可以看出正确答案。
45．A 根据这个词组所在的那一句的含义和thumb这个词的意思：大拇指，猜测出句意是：当你在使用工具的时候，你可能是所有的手指都是大拇指，意思就是没有长短之分，没有擅长，就是笨拙。
【语篇解读】 生命中总有一些人对我们造成了难以忘却的痛，然而他们也会背着沉重的包袱直到人生的最后一刻。那么你是否会宽恕他们？本文中Father O'Malley的行为会告诉我们一切。
46．C 推理判断题。由倒数第三段最后一句killed a young man，his wife and their two daughters可知C正确。
47．A 细节理解题。最后一句是指Father O'Malley作为受害家庭的一员已宽恕了Tom，那么上帝也会这样的。故选A。
48．C 推理判断题。由Tom在文章中说的第一句话I know my deal is done and it's my turn to go可知C正确；由倒数第四段第一句可知A错；由第七段no one around here knows much about him可知B错；Father O'Malley活下来了，故D错。
49．C 细节理解题。由此句上面的倒数第四段可知这里的go应指die。故选C。
50．D 主旨大意题。从文章开始Father O'Malley不顾恶劣天气去医院到最后宽恕了使他失去家人的Tom，可以看出文章主旨是D项。
51．relationship 52.Researchers 53.Conclusion(s)/Result(s)
54．involved 55.lasted 56.healthy 57.improve/better

A
(2013·山东高考)Jimmy is an automotive mechanic，but he lost his job a few months ago.He has a good heart，but always feared applying for a new job.
One day，he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview.His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8：30.While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed，he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car.Obviously there was something wrong with the car.Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand.When Jimmy finished working on the car，the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service.Jimmy said there was no need to pay him；he just helped someone in need，and he had to rush for an interview.Then the old man said，“Well，I could take you to the office for your interview.It's the least I could do.Please，I insist.”Jimmy agreed.
Upon arrival，Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed.Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair，but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt.One by one，the applicants left the interviewer's office with disappointed looks on their faces.Finally his name was called.The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window.Rocking the chair back and forth，he asked，“Do you really need to be interviewed？” Jimmy's heart sank.“With the way I look now，how could I possibly pass this interview？” he thought to himself.
Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy's surprise，it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning.It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.
“Sorry I had to keep you waiting，but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into this office.I just know you'd be a trustworthy worker.Congratulations！”Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.
1. Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?
A．He was out of work.
B．He was bored with his job.
C．He wanted a higher position.
D．He hoped to find a better boss.
2．What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?
A．A friend's car had a flat tyre.
B．A wild man was pushing a car.
C．A terrible car accident happened.
D．An old man's car broke down.
3．Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?
A．He was also to be interviewed.
B．He needed a travelling companion.
C．He always helped people in need.
D．He was thankful to Jimmy.
4．How did Jimmy feel on hearing the interviewer's question?
A．He was sorry for the other applicants.
B．There was no hope for him to get the job.
C．He regretted helping the old man.
D．The interviewer was very rude.
5．What can we learn from Jimmy's experience?
A．Where there's a will，there's a way.
B．A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C．Good is rewarded with good.
D．Two heads are better than one.
B
There are a lot of things you can do to help others，whether it's with your mom's chores，or if a friend is upset.Here are some little things you can do to reach out to other people and they will bring benefits such as happiness.
Try to offer first.When people need your help，they'll most likely ask you first，but if you have the chance，try to offer to help before they ask you.This will show that you are willing to help from the start.For example，if you see a friend struggling to carry groceries，offer to help.Or if you see them getting bullied，help them stand up.Or if you see them getting pushed down or beaten，ask “Are you all right？” and help them up.Then try to cheer them up.Believe me，helping people will always make you feel better because it's the right thing to do.
Put_yourself_in_someone_else's_shoes.Being compassionate(有同情心的) can give you a strong reason to help someone else.It can also show people that you really do care about someone.
Volunteer or donate.Being in charitable organizations is a great way to help the less fortunate，like donating food or money to the poor.
Listen.You obviously can't know what you need to do if you're not even paying attention.Plus，people aren't going to rely on you very much if you act like you don't even care what they're saying.Think about what might happen if you don't.More people will feel more miserable if you just leave them when they need you，and you don't want to see people unhappy，do you? Don't stress yourself too much，but it's always nice to lend a hand.
6．In the passage the author talks about________.
A．the benefits of helping others
B．what you can do to help others
C．how to offer to help first
D．how to listen to others
7．What should you do first if your friend feels discouraged after a competition?
A．Encourage him not to lose heart.
B．Help him find out the problem.
C．Show compassion for him.
D．Listen to him patiently.
8．The sentence “Put yourself in someone else's shoes” means________.
A．putting on someone else's shoes
B．putting yourself in someone else's situation
C．showing enough care for others
D．listening to others carefully
9．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．The purpose of charitable organizations is to donate food or money to the poor.
B．Helping others is the right thing to do because it makes you feel better.
C．Helping those who ask you for help first can show that you are very willing.
D．Paying more attention to others will get you more trust.
10．In the next part，the author would most probably talk about________.

B．the result of stressing yourself too much
C．the reason for being nice to lend a hand

9．coverings 10.interviewer
Ⅱ.1.C 句意：晚上为了取暖，我会填满柴炉，然后为闹钟定时以便半夜里能起来再添一次。根据语境可知此处用动词不定式作目的状语，故答案为C。为了突出目的，通常把目的状语置于句首。
2．D 句意：昨天老板打电话告诉我他给我提供了一份好工作。空格后接的是双宾语，所以选D。
3．C 动名词短语做主语，这里的take和其逻辑主语a person like me有被动关系，故用being taken的形式。
4．A prepare接宾语时表示“准备的具体内容”，此处指“做好思想准备”，故选A。句意：他们发现自己很难对可能面对的艰苦条件做好思想准备。
5．C 句意：这个想法听起来很有趣所以我决定要做进一步的了解。follow up采取后续行动，在……之后再采取进一步行动；pick up捡起，接某人，收听；take up占据(时间、空间)；make up编造，化妆，弥补。
6．B have the edge on/over稍微胜过……。句意：马西娅在英国待过一年，所以比班级里其他学生稍好一些。

8．C 考查非谓语动词和状语从句的省略。状语从句连词once之后的非谓语动词与主句主语anyone之间为被动关系，故选过去分词。
9．B 用not only...but also...连接主语时，谓语动词的单复数根据就近原则，因而选择B项。
10．D however或no matter how后接形容词或副词，这种让步状语从句不需要倒装。
11．C There is no need(for sb)to do sth.(某人)没有必要做某事，(某人)不必做某事。句意：我没必要打破窗户因为我有钥匙。
12．B even though尽管，即使；unless除非；as long as只要。句意：尽管蒂姆不经常锻炼，但他身体很好。前后两个分句是让步转折关系，故选B。
13．D be admitted to 表示“被允许进入，被录取”，其中to是介词；allow和permit常接动词不定式作宾语补足语；agree to do表示“同意做”；agree to sth.表示“同意(计划、建议)等”。
14．B “认为我们以前没有见过面”，正常情况下下文应该是看上去不面熟，但本题中下文说看上去面熟，由此可以看出应该选择B项，although引导让步状语从句。句意：我相信我们以前没有见过面，不过我必须说你看上去的确很面熟。
15．A for the benefit of为了……的利益，其他项均为错误词组。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】 本文为一篇记叙文。讲述了吉米失业后去一家公司应聘的故事。在等公共汽车的时候，他看到一位老人的车坏了，就停下来帮助老人修车。车修好后，老人要给他钱，吉米拒绝了，并说了自己的情况。老人用车把吉米载到了他要去的公司。这位老人就是那家公司的总经理。最后，吉米得到了这份工作。本文旨在告诉读者“好人有好报”。
1．A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的he lost his job可知他失业了，因此要去申请一份新工作。选项B “他厌倦了他的工作”，选项C “他想得到一个更高的职位”以及选项D “他想找到一个更好的老板”在文中均未提及。
2．D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的．..he saw an elderly man...there was something wrong with the car.可推知吉米看到一位老人的车坏了。选项A“一个朋友的车胎瘪了”中的朋友与文章内容不相符；选项B“一个疯狂的男人在推车”与文中的“一个上了年纪的人在使劲地踢他汽车的轮胎”不相符；选项C“发生了一场可怕的事故”在文中未提及。
3．D 推理判断题。第二段中的后半部分提到吉米帮老人修好车后，又说了自己的情况，即他急着去参加面试，老人很感激他，就坚持要载他去。选项A“他也要去面试”在文中未提及；选项B“他需要一个旅游同伴”在文中也未提及；选项C“他总是帮助需要帮助的人”在文中也未提及。
4．B 推理判断题。由第三段中的倒数第二句Jimmy's heart sank可推知他感觉自己已经没有希望得到这份工作了。选项A“他为其他的申请者感到遗憾”，选项C“他后悔帮助了那位老人”，选项D“这位面试官很粗鲁”在文中均未提及。
5．C 推理判断题。根据文中的叙述可知，吉米在去面试时帮助了一位车坏了的老人，而这位老人就是他去面试的那家公司的总经理，于是吉米得到了那份工作。由此我们可以推断出本文旨在告诉读者“好人有好报”。选项A“有志者，事竟成”，选项B“患难朋友才是真朋友”，选项D“两人智慧胜一人”，都与文章主旨不符。
【语篇解读】 本文主要讲述的是关于如何帮助他人的一些建议。
6．B 主旨大意题。由第一段最后一句可知，文章谈论的是帮助他人做所能做的一些事情和其能带来的益处。故选B。
7．B 细节理解题。由第二段作者举的最后一个例子可知，如果朋友被打倒或击败，首先帮助他们站起来然后鼓励他们。由这个比喻可知第一步要做的是帮助他们找出问题的所在。故选B。
8．B 猜测词义题。由后面的compassionate可知选B。
9．D 细节理解题。由最后一段“若你表现得……”可知D正确。由第四段可知捐钱等仅是慈善组织帮助他人的方法之一，故A错。由第二段最后一句可知B项弄错了因果关系。由第二段第二句可知主动先提出帮助他人才能表示你是自愿的，故C错。
10．D 推理判断题。从文章第一段最后一句知作者将讨论如何帮助别人和帮助别人带来的益处，前面的内容一直在讲如何帮助别人，故下一步该讲帮助别人带来的益处了。

Ⅳ.阅读理解
American sign language has an interesting history.Although there have always been deaf individuals in America，the history really begins in 1817.Before 1817 deaf people communicated by using “home signs”．Gestures were individually created and used within the home for simple communication.There were no schools or formal sign language training for the deaf.
So，why was 1817 an important year? Well，the story begins with Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet.Gallaudet met his neighbor's daughter Alice Cogswell.Alice was the young deaf daughter of Dr.Mason Cogswell from Hartford，Connecticut.Gallaudet began teaching Alice to read and write a few simple words.Excited by the success Dr.Cogswell encouraged Gallaudet to establish a school for the deaf.Cogswell raised the money and Gallaudet traveled to Britain to learn the methods used there.However，the schools refused to share their instructional techniques and methods.
While in London there happened to be a demonstration of the French method of deaf education.Britain was using an oral method of instruction；however，the French method used signs.Gallaudet was fascinated with the method and was able to meet with the instructor，Sicard，and his two deaf pupils，Jean Massieu and Laurent Clerc.Sicard agreed to teach Gallaudet his method and Gallaudet went to Paris to learn French signs.After a while，Gallaudet wished to return home and convinced Clerc to go with him and help him establish the school.The trip home was a 52-day voyage during which Clerc taught Gallaudet French signs and Gallaudet taught Clerc English.
On April 15,1817，Laurent Clerc and Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet established what is currently known as the American School for the Deaf in Hartford，Connecticut.The opening of the first school for the deaf can be viewed as one of the most important events in current deaf culture.
1．What is the text mainly about?
A．How Gallaudet set up the first school for the deaf in America.
B．What contributions Gallaudet made to the education of the deaf in America.
C．Different methods of teaching the deaf in the world.
D．Who invented American sign language.
2．Before 1817 deaf people in America________.
A．couldn't even communicate with their parents at home
B．could only have simple communication within home
C．could only communicate with an oral method
D．could only communicate with deaf people from other homes
3．Schools in Britain didn't teach Gallaudet because________.
A．their methods were quite different
B．they thought it was impossible for Gallaudet to learn
C．Gallaudet knew little about sign language
D．they wanted to keep their methods a secret
4．What happened during the 52-day voyage back to America?
A．Clerc began to teach Gallaudet French signs.
B．American sign language began to form in Gallaudet's mind.
C．Gallaudet learned many of French signs.
D．Both men learned the language of the other.
5．Who gave the biggest help to Gallaudet，according to the passage?
A．Alice Cogswell. B．Dr.Mason Cogswell.

Ⅰ.1.garage 2.relaxed 3.management 4.trainees
5．smartly 6.introduced 7.responsible 8.accurate
9．surprising 10.employees
Ⅱ.1.B 根据句意“在过去30年中我们国家从海外引进了大量的先进技术和管理。”可知选B。
2．C 句意：既然每一个人都来了，让我们开始制订我们的下一个五年计划。get down to开始做……，to为介词，故其后接动名词形式，可排除A、B两项；for不能位于句首引导从句。
3．A accurate精确的；ridiculous可笑的，滑稽的；urgent紧急的；shallow浅的，肤浅的。根据句意“我确信印刷的媒体信息常常会比电视更准确、更可靠。”可知选A。
4．D support支持，支撑；care关心，在意；spare挤出，匀出；share分享。句意：哈里也玩你的玩具——克莱尔，你必须学会分享。
5．A 句意：我的朋友真不错，他带我绕城转了一圈。was前没主语，排除where；it不能引导定语从句，排除D项；that不引导非限制性定语从句，排除B项，故选A项。

9．B 本题考查的是短语look forward to的用法。要注意短语中的to是一个介词，后面接名词、代词或者动词的-ing形式。
10．B 所填选项与happy并列，应看作形容词，说明主语的状态，A、D两项都表示主动意义，意为“令人吃惊的”，C项表示原因，意义不当。surprised看作形容词，表示“吃惊的”。
11．B 句意：直到我来到这里我才意识到这个地方不仅因为它的美丽而闻名，还因它的天气而闻名。句中的not until结构有两种句型：①it is/was not until...that...强调句型；②not until...部分倒装句。分析本题句式可知B项正确。
12．B 考查形容词词义。句意：履行诺言的人当然是负责任的人。
13．C 考查连接词的用法。A项表示一定范围中的哪一个；B项也必须有特定的范围；C项意为“……的事”，不存在范围限制；D项意为“无论……”，不符合题意要求，所以C项正确，此处引导宾语从句，且在从句中作表语。
14．D attend (on/upon/to) 伺候、看护、照料。A应为take care of；B应为look after。
15．B take advantage of利用；take control of操纵，控制，管理。句意：我们应该举行会议来决定派谁去管理这个项目。
Ⅲ.1.C 根据上文中的only that和下文中的full of traffic可知此处选择already。

4．B 此处指感谢公交的某些好处，表示肯定。

7．A 该题根据上下文和句意选择。此处是指都知道英国有很多双层车。其他不合题意。
8．A 该题根据上下文和搭配判断。上文中有often very crowded和本句的sit on得知是指坐在车顶上。floor是指地板，不合题意。window和door不能和sit on搭配。
9．B 根据上文的Buses are tenderly called“tap-taps”和下文的when they want to be dropped off得知，下车时车顶的人要敲一敲司机才知道。
10．A 该题根据上下文和句意可知：the Japanese and French是两类。
11．D 此处指连接不同的(various)城市。其他不全面。
12．B 该题根据上下文和搭配判断。下文中的averaging over 270 kph给予提示，得知此处是指平均速度。

19．who 20.him

2．B 细节理解题。文章第一段说明，在1817年之前，美国的聋哑人只能在家里借助简单的手势语交流。
3．D 细节理解题。文章第二段最后一句表明，英国人不想分享他们的教学方法，说明他们保密。
4．D 细节理解题。由文章第三段最后一句可知，在52天的返程中，法国人Clerc教Gallaudet法国手势语言，而Gallaudet教Clerc英语，他们相互学习对方的语言，D项说法更准确全面。
5．C 推理判断题。综合文章信息，Dr.Cogswell给予Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet主要是经济上的援助，而法国人Laurent Clerc则教给了他手势语。

One day I was driving a group of friends to a family seminar(研讨会) in Holmes County，Ohio.The village of Berlin was about an hour from our home.The seminar is usually half a day except on Saturday.In my hurry，I left the house without cash and without food.I comforted myself with the thought that I could go without and it would allow me to concentrate more on the rich teaching that I would receive.It was a beautiful day and the drive was pleasant through countryside.I enjoyed conversation with my friends about the things of the Lord as we drove.When we arrived I found my place and settled in to enjoy the seminar.The morning passed swiftly and I noticed no hunger.When the noon hour came I went to the van(面包车) to spend some time alone with the Lord.On the church grounds and in the shade of the tree people began to open large picnic baskets.I knew it would be impossible to think about this feast going on in front of me.
I started the van and drove into the village of Berlin.I found the Christian bookstore and spent some time browsing among the books.One of my favorite places on earth is a good bookstore.Standing there I sensed someone behind me.I turned and was shocked to see Lois standing there.She smiled “I couldn't stand the thought of you going hungry so I brought you some money.”My heart welled_up with love for her in that moment.We ate lunch and kissed goodbye.I went back to the seminar and she made the hour-long trip back home.
The two things stand out in my mind.First，Lois would know that I was hungry so I would not have to go without food.Second，when she went to the church and saw I was gone she knew exactly where she would find me.

As the US wakes up to China's rising status (地位)as an economic and strategic competitor，US parents are urging their children to learn Chinese，reports Julian Borger.
The US is being swept by a rush to learn Mandarin (普通)—from wealthy New York mothers hiring Chinese nannies (保姆) for their small children to a defence department education project in Oregon.
The forces driving Mandarin's momentum (势头)are parental ambition for children facing a future in which China is almost certain to be a major player，and the government is worried about that America may get left behind in that new world.
The bottleneck is the supply of teachers.Mandarin instructors are difficult to import and difficult to train.There are visa problems in bringing over teachers from China but the biggest barrier is cultural.Teaching in Asia is generally done by rote and the change to western，interactive styles of instruction can be a large leap (跳越)．
On the other hand，it requires enormous firmness for westerners to learn a language like Chinese，with its thousands of written characters.According to the Asia Society in New York，all of America's teacher?training institutions turn out only a couple of dozen homegrown Mandarin teachers.
One way to ease the shortage is to find native Mandarin speakers and use fast?track methods to train them.However，the majority of Chinese?Americans grew up speaking Cantonese，the dialect (方言)spoken in Hong Kong，where their parents came from.Many are themselves signing on as Mandarin students at the private language schools springing up on the west coast.

6．D 固定词组have difficulty(in)doing sth.做某事有困难。
7．B 句意：只有他为他的粗鲁道歉时，我才会再跟他讲话。only＋时间状语从句放在句首时，句子要部分倒装。will表示愿意做某事。
8．B 根据句意，此处用过去分词短语作状语，故选B。
9．C would rather...than...是固定搭配，表示主观上的抉择，意为“宁愿……而不……”。
10．B 句意：艾滋病的控制与预防对中国和全世界都是一个挑战。C项意为“反应”；D项意为“威胁”。

12．A 考查it的用法。it作形式宾语指代句子后面的不定式，是“主语＋find/feel/think/consider/make＋it＋adj./n.＋(for sb)＋不定式”结构。句意：我们觉得让我们的国家成为一个更好的地方是我们的职责。
13．B 句意：这顿饭值50美元吗？我认为花50美元要比这吃得好得多！根据句意可知选B项。

Ⅲ.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者参加星期六研讨会，匆忙之中没有吃早餐，也没有带钱，正感到饥肠辘辘时，遇到了Lois，原来Lois是为自己而来。
1．A 主旨大意题。根据第二段的I couldn't stand the thought of you going hungry so I brought you some money可知，Lois对作者的爱；第三段讲述了Lois了解作者，故答案选A。误解分析：作者没有着重讲研讨会的内容，也没有说午餐的丰盛，故排除A、B两项；文中尽管体现了作者看到老朋友时的惊讶，但并没有提到感兴趣，故排除D项。
2．C 推理判断题。根据文章的内容可知，作者在那里用午餐，故推测出研讨会下午还要进行，文中给出的The seminar is usually half a day except on Saturday表明只在星期六研讨会才进行一天，故选C。
3．D 推理判断题。根据第一段的When the noon hour came I went to the van to spend some time alone with the Lord.可知，中午会议结束时，作者并没有想到书店，而是坐到面包车里打发时光，因为看到他人在用餐，作者才驱车到了村中的书店，故由此推断作者到书店是为了消磨午餐时间。
4．B 词义猜测题。根据前后语境可知，作者听到Lois的话很感动，因此在该句中heart表示“情感，心情”，故well up表示“情感的迸发”，在这表示“此时此刻对Lois的爱更加强烈”。
5．D 细节理解题。文章最后一段表明了当Lois在会场找不到作者时，便知道他在书店，说明作者是一个常常把业余时间花在读书上的人。

One day，he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview.His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8：30.While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed，he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car.Obviously there was something wrong with the car.Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand.When Jimmy finished working on the car，the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service.Jimmy said there was no need to pay him；he just helped someone in need，and he had to rush for an interview.Then the old man said，“Well，I could take you to the office for your interview.It's the least I could do.Please，I insist.”Jimmy agreed.
Upon arrival，Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed.Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair，but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt.One by one，the applicants left the interviewer's office with disappointed looks on their faces.Finally his name was called.The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window.Rocking the chair back and forth，he asked，“Do you really need to be interviewed？” Jimmy's heart sank.“With the way I look now，how could I possibly pass this interview？” he thought to himself.
Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy's surprise，it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning.It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.
“Sorry I had to keep you waiting，but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into this office.I just know you'd be a trustworthy worker.Congratulations！”Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.
1. Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?
A．He was out of work.
B．He was bored with his job.
C．He wanted a higher position.
D．He hoped to find a better boss.
2．What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?
A．A friend's car had a flat tyre.
B．A wild man was pushing a car.
C．A terrible car accident happened.
D．An old man's car broke down.
3．Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?
A．He was also to be interviewed.
B．He needed a travelling companion.
C．He always helped people in need.
D．He was thankful to Jimmy.
4．How did Jimmy feel on hearing the interviewer's question?
A．He was sorry for the other applicants.
B．There was no hope for him to get the job.
C．He regretted helping the old man.
D．The interviewer was very rude.
5．What can we learn from Jimmy's experience?
A．Where there's a will，there's a way.
B．A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C．Good is rewarded with good.
D．Two heads are better than one.
B
There are a lot of things you can do to help others，whether it's with your mom's chores，or if a friend is upset.Here are some little things you can do to reach out to other people and they will bring benefits such as happiness.
Try to offer first.When people need your help，they'll most likely ask you first，but if you have the chance，try to offer to help before they ask you.This will show that you are willing to help from the start.For example，if you see a friend struggling to carry groceries，offer to help.Or if you see them getting bullied，help them stand up.Or if you see them getting pushed down or beaten，ask “Are you all right？” and help them up.Then try to cheer them up.Believe me，helping people will always make you feel better because it's the right thing to do.
Put_yourself_in_someone_else's_shoes.Being compassionate(有同情心的) can give you a strong reason to help someone else.It can also show people that you really do care about someone.
Volunteer or donate.Being in charitable organizations is a great way to help the less fortunate，like donating food or money to the poor.
Listen.You obviously can't know what you need to do if you're not even paying attention.Plus，people aren't going to rely on you very much if you act like you don't even care what they're saying.Think about what might happen if you don't.More people will feel more miserable if you just leave them when they need you，and you don't want to see people unhappy，do you? Don't stress yourself too much，but it's always nice to lend a hand.

9．coverings 10.interviewer
Ⅱ.1.C 句意：晚上为了取暖，我会填满柴炉，然后为闹钟定时以便半夜里能起来再添一次。根据语境可知此处用动词不定式作目的状语，故答案为C。为了突出目的，通常把目的状语置于句首。
2．D 句意：昨天老板打电话告诉我他给我提供了一份好工作。空格后接的是双宾语，所以选D。
3．C 动名词短语做主语，这里的take和其逻辑主语a person like me有被动关系，故用being taken的形式。
4．A prepare接宾语时表示“准备的具体内容”，此处指“做好思想准备”，故选A。句意：他们发现自己很难对可能面对的艰苦条件做好思想准备。
5．C 句意：这个想法听起来很有趣所以我决定要做进一步的了解。follow up采取后续行动，在……之后再采取进一步行动；pick up捡起，接某人，收听；take up占据(时间、空间)；make up编造，化妆，弥补。
6．B have the edge on/over稍微胜过……。句意：马西娅在英国待过一年，所以比班级里其他学生稍好一些。

8．C 考查非谓语动词和状语从句的省略。状语从句连词once之后的非谓语动词与主句主语anyone之间为被动关系，故选过去分词。
9．B 用not only...but also...连接主语时，谓语动词的单复数根据就近原则，因而选择B项。
10．D however或no matter how后接形容词或副词，这种让步状语从句不需要倒装。
11．C There is no need(for sb)to do sth.(某人)没有必要做某事，(某人)不必做某事。句意：我没必要打破窗户因为我有钥匙。
12．B even though尽管，即使；unless除非；as long as只要。句意：尽管蒂姆不经常锻炼，但他身体很好。前后两个分句是让步转折关系，故选B。

14．B “认为我们以前没有见过面”，正常情况下下文应该是看上去不面熟，但本题中下文说看上去面熟，由此可以看出应该选择B项，although引导让步状语从句。句意：我相信我们以前没有见过面，不过我必须说你看上去的确很面熟。
15．A for the benefit of为了……的利益，其他项均为错误词组。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】 本文为一篇记叙文。讲述了吉米失业后去一家公司应聘的故事。在等公共汽车的时候，他看到一位老人的车坏了，就停下来帮助老人修车。车修好后，老人要给他钱，吉米拒绝了，并说了自己的情况。老人用车把吉米载到了他要去的公司。这位老人就是那家公司的总经理。最后，吉米得到了这份工作。本文旨在告诉读者“好人有好报”。
1．A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的he lost his job可知他失业了，因此要去申请一份新工作。选项B “他厌倦了他的工作”，选项C “他想得到一个更高的职位”以及选项D “他想找到一个更好的老板”在文中均未提及。
2．D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的．..he saw an elderly man...there was something wrong with the car.可推知吉米看到一位老人的车坏了。选项A“一个朋友的车胎瘪了”中的朋友与文章内容不相符；选项B“一个疯狂的男人在推车”与文中的“一个上了年纪的人在使劲地踢他汽车的轮胎”不相符；选项C“发生了一场可怕的事故”在文中未提及。
3．D 推理判断题。第二段中的后半部分提到吉米帮老人修好车后，又说了自己的情况，即他急着去参加面试，老人很感激他，就坚持要载他去。选项A“他也要去面试”在文中未提及；选项B“他需要一个旅游同伴”在文中也未提及；选项C“他总是帮助需要帮助的人”在文中也未提及。
4．B 推理判断题。由第三段中的倒数第二句Jimmy's heart sank可推知他感觉自己已经没有希望得到这份工作了。选项A“他为其他的申请者感到遗憾”，选项C“他后悔帮助了那位老人”，选项D“这位面试官很粗鲁”在文中均未提及。
5．C 推理判断题。根据文中的叙述可知，吉米在去面试时帮助了一位车坏了的老人，而这位老人就是他去面试的那家公司的总经理，于是吉米得到了那份工作。由此我们可以推断出本文旨在告诉读者“好人有好报”。选项A“有志者，事竟成”，选项B“患难朋友才是真朋友”，选项D“两人智慧胜一人”，都与文章主旨不符。
【语篇解读】 本文主要讲述的是关于如何帮助他人的一些建议。
6．B 主旨大意题。由第一段最后一句可知，文章谈论的是帮助他人做所能做的一些事情和其能带来的益处。故选B。
7．B 细节理解题。由第二段作者举的最后一个例子可知，如果朋友被打倒或击败，首先帮助他们站起来然后鼓励他们。由这个比喻可知第一步要做的是帮助他们找出问题的所在。故选B。
8．B 猜测词义题。由后面的compassionate可知选B。
9．D 细节理解题。由最后一段“若你表现得……”可知D正确。由第四段可知捐钱等仅是慈善组织帮助他人的方法之一，故A错。由第二段最后一句可知B项弄错了因果关系。由第二段第二句可知主动先提出帮助他人才能表示你是自愿的，故C错。
10．D 推理判断题。从文章第一段最后一句知作者将讨论如何帮助别人和帮助别人带来的益处，前面的内容一直在讲如何帮助别人，故下一步该讲帮助别人带来的益处了。

Ⅳ.阅读理解
American sign language has an interesting history.Although there have always been deaf individuals in America，the history really begins in 1817.Before 1817 deaf people communicated by using “home signs”．Gestures were individually created and used within the home for simple communication.There were no schools or formal sign language training for the deaf.
So，why was 1817 an important year? Well，the story begins with Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet.Gallaudet met his neighbor's daughter Alice Cogswell.Alice was the young deaf daughter of Dr.Mason Cogswell from Hartford，Connecticut.Gallaudet began teaching Alice to read and write a few simple words.Excited by the success Dr.Cogswell encouraged Gallaudet to establish a school for the deaf.Cogswell raised the money and Gallaudet traveled to Britain to learn the methods used there.However，the schools refused to share their instructional techniques and methods.
While in London there happened to be a demonstration of the French method of deaf education.Britain was using an oral method of instruction；however，the French method used signs.Gallaudet was fascinated with the method and was able to meet with the instructor，Sicard，and his two deaf pupils，Jean Massieu and Laurent Clerc.Sicard agreed to teach Gallaudet his method and Gallaudet went to Paris to learn French signs.After a while，Gallaudet wished to return home and convinced Clerc to go with him and help him establish the school.The trip home was a 52-day voyage during which Clerc taught Gallaudet French signs and Gallaudet taught Clerc English.
On April 15,1817，Laurent Clerc and Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet established what is currently known as the American School for the Deaf in Hartford，Connecticut.The opening of the first school for the deaf can be viewed as one of the most important events in current deaf culture.
1．What is the text mainly about?
A．How Gallaudet set up the first school for the deaf in America.
B．What contributions Gallaudet made to the education of the deaf in America.
C．Different methods of teaching the deaf in the world.

2．Before 1817 deaf people in America________.
A．couldn't even communicate with their parents at home
B．could only have simple communication within home
C．could only communicate with an oral method
D．could only communicate with deaf people from other homes
3．Schools in Britain didn't teach Gallaudet because________.
A．their methods were quite different
B．they thought it was impossible for Gallaudet to learn
C．Gallaudet knew little about sign language
D．they wanted to keep their methods a secret
4．What happened during the 52-day voyage back to America?
A．Clerc began to teach Gallaudet French signs.
B．American sign language began to form in Gallaudet's mind.
C．Gallaudet learned many of French signs.
D．Both men learned the language of the other.
5．Who gave the biggest help to Gallaudet，according to the passage?
A．Alice Cogswell. B．Dr.Mason Cogswell.

One day I was driving a group of friends to a family seminar(研讨会) in Holmes County，Ohio.The village of Berlin was about an hour from our home.The seminar is usually half a day except on Saturday.In my hurry，I left the house without cash and without food.I comforted myself with the thought that I could go without and it would allow me to concentrate more on the rich teaching that I would receive.It was a beautiful day and the drive was pleasant through countryside.I enjoyed conversation with my friends about the things of the Lord as we drove.When we arrived I found my place and settled in to enjoy the seminar.The morning passed swiftly and I noticed no hunger.When the noon hour came I went to the van(面包车) to spend some time alone with the Lord.On the church grounds and in the shade of the tree people began to open large picnic baskets.I knew it would be impossible to think about this feast going on in front of me.
I started the van and drove into the village of Berlin.I found the Christian bookstore and spent some time browsing among the books.One of my favorite places on earth is a good bookstore.Standing there I sensed someone behind me.I turned and was shocked to see Lois standing there.She smiled “I couldn't stand the thought of you going hungry so I brought you some money.”My heart welled_up with love for her in that moment.We ate lunch and kissed goodbye.I went back to the seminar and she made the hour-long trip back home.
The two things stand out in my mind.First，Lois would know that I was hungry so I would not have to go without food.Second，when she went to the church and saw I was gone she knew exactly where she would find me.

A debate is a discussion about a subject on which people have different views.It's a nice way of gaining a lot of knowledge and views on a topic，or situation that we aren't either aware of，or haven't really looked into in detail.It makes you more able to think critically and more confident in speaking.In addition，it helps in appreciating tolerance of others' opinion and improves your listening skills.
A debate requires one to know how to use words and intelligence to overcome his or her opposing team members.To give great arguments during a debate，first you need to get your facts right.To make what you have in material for a debate contain facts，don't just depend on the Internet，especially avoid just referring to one website for all your information.You are also required to refer to books，and make sure they're authors of a high degree，since their materials have reference notes and extensive research projects done on what they are covering.
Second，you should be full of confidence.You need to show that you're sure of what you're saying，and point out how flawed their comeback arguments were.The only way to do this is to thoroughly know your material before heading on out to a debate session.Know your statistics，know your history and above all know names，dates and places.Make key notes to refer to.Don't stammer(口吃)，and also don't level your gaze with your opponent or the rest of them.All this will help you keep confident.
At last，by no means should you lose your calmness，but keep your voice firm and raised enough to sound calm.A good team member should know how to keep his emotions in control as well as keep others under control in his/her team.

Ⅲ.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者参加星期六研讨会，匆忙之中没有吃早餐，也没有带钱，正感到饥肠辘辘时，遇到了Lois，原来Lois是为自己而来。
1．A 主旨大意题。根据第二段的I couldn't stand the thought of you going hungry so I brought you some money可知，Lois对作者的爱；第三段讲述了Lois了解作者，故答案选A。误解分析：作者没有着重讲研讨会的内容，也没有说午餐的丰盛，故排除A、B两项；文中尽管体现了作者看到老朋友时的惊讶，但并没有提到感兴趣，故排除D项。
2．C 推理判断题。根据文章的内容可知，作者在那里用午餐，故推测出研讨会下午还要进行，文中给出的The seminar is usually half a day except on Saturday表明只在星期六研讨会才进行一天，故选C。
3．D 推理判断题。根据第一段的When the noon hour came I went to the van to spend some time alone with the Lord.可知，中午会议结束时，作者并没有想到书店，而是坐到面包车里打发时光，因为看到他人在用餐，作者才驱车到了村中的书店，故由此推断作者到书店是为了消磨午餐时间。
4．B 词义猜测题。根据前后语境可知，作者听到Lois的话很感动，因此在该句中heart表示“情感，心情”，故well up表示“情感的迸发”，在这表示“此时此刻对Lois的爱更加强烈”。
5．D 细节理解题。文章最后一段表明了当Lois在会场找不到作者时，便知道他在书店，说明作者是一个常常把业余时间花在读书上的人。
