1．Students studying engineering often have to make models.(P49)
学习工程学的学生经常不得不制作模型。
句中studying engineering为现在分词作定语，修饰主语students。
This is a very charming village.
这是一座迷人的村庄。
There is a door leading to the garden.
有一座门通往花园。
①单个的现在分词作定语时，它总是位于被修饰的名词之前，说明被修饰名词的性质或特征等。但如果是现在分词短语作定语，则总是位于所修饰的名词之后。
②现在分词的被动式一般都不能用作前置定语，只能作后置定语。
③现在分词作定语时，表示动作正在进行或与谓语动词所表示的动作几乎同时发生，或表示某个经常性的动作或状态。如果定语的动作发生在主句之前，一般不能用现在分词形式作定语，而要用定语从句，如果定语的动作发生在主句之后常用定语从句或不定式表示。
The house being painted will be completed next week.
正在被粉刷的房子将在下周完成。
(误)The man coming here yesterday will give us a talk.
(正)The man who came here yesterday will give us a talk.
昨天来的那个人将给我们作个报告。
【提示】 过去分词，现在分词的被动式与不定式的被动式都可作定语，其区别主要体现在动作发生的时间上。
①过去分词表示的动作或是在谓语所表示的动作之前发生，或是没有一定的时间性。
②现在分词的被动式作定语时，表示的动作正在发生或是与谓语动词所表示的动作同时发生。
③不定式的被动式作定语时，表示一个未来的动作。

(2013·辽宁高考)Laura was away in Paris for over a week.When she got home，there was a pile of mail
for her.
A．waited B．to wait
C．waiting D．was waiting
【解析】 句意：劳拉去了巴黎一个多星期。当她到家时，有一堆邮件正等着她。分析句子结构可知，空格处用作后置定语修饰mail，因为mail与wait之间为主动关系，且wait的动作不是发生在将来，故不用不定式而用现在分词结构。D项若改为which/that was waiting也正确，这样可构成定语从句修饰mail，但是作为从句主语的关系代词不可省去。

【答案】 1.直接；特殊 2.历史；传说；文学作品
3．生动；感染力
典故(Allusion)
典故与汉语的暗引相近似。其特点是不注明来源和出处，一般多引用人们熟知的关键词或词组，将其融合编织在作者的话语中。引用的东西包括典故、谚语、成语、格言和俗语等。英语引用最多的是源出《圣经》故事以及希腊、罗马神话、《伊索寓言》的那些源远流长的谚语、格言等。
英语国家的文化源远流长，浓郁的文化背景留下了许多脍炙人口的习语典故，它们有些来自历史故事，有些来自神话故事，有些来自民间传说，有些来自《圣经》故事。以下分为五类简述：
一、来源于历史故事
1．为什么含有Dutch(荷兰佬)的短语均带有贬义色彩呢？例如：Dutch courage(酒后之勇)，Dutch leave(擅离职守，不辞而别)，go Dutch/Dutch treat(各自付账)，以及Dutch uncle(严厉的批评者)等。十七世纪，英国与荷兰争夺制海权的斗争空前激烈，英国人民由于民族感情高涨而在国内开始用荷兰人(Dutch)来指代“坏的、假的、错的事情”，之后便流传开来，并沿用至今。
2．worth one's salt(称职)，古罗马时，盐相当珍贵，从盐矿向罗马运盐的路就是最重要的道路之一，士兵沿此路驻扎以防盐贼，士兵的工资也以盐来支付，由此产生了英语单词salary，所以worth one's salt＝worth one's pay(称职)。
3．cut and run(急忙退避不利形势)。英国古时航海，海上的船只如果遇到了紧急情况，例如突如其来的风暴或者强大的敌舰，船长急于躲避灭顶之灾，往往不会像平常那样起锚，而会叫艇员砍断锚链，尽快逃走。后来便用“砍断并逃走”来指代“急忙退避不利形势”。
二、来源于神话故事
1．rain cats and dogs(下倾盆大雨)。源于北欧神话，神话中说猫对天气有很大影响，英国水手至今还流传着“猫尾巴藏大风”的说法。据说驾风暴的巫士化为猫形，狗和狼都是暴风雨神奥丁的随从。在德国古画中猫被当作暴雨的象征，狗是伴随暴雨的强风。现在人们用rain cats and dogs表示下倾盆大雨。
2．Trojan horse(特洛伊木马，指代用以使敌人或对手上当，误以为于己方有益的破坏性的事物或人)。源于希腊神话，特洛伊战争中，希腊人为了攻打特洛伊城，造了一匹巨大的木马，其中藏有希腊士兵。他们故意装出弃马而逃的样子，特洛伊人将木马作为战利品请进城。半夜，士兵们从木马内爬出，将城中的人杀死。特洛伊终于陷落。
3．apple of discord(不和的苹果，指代争端、祸根)。源于希腊神话，佩琉斯(Peleus)和忒提斯(Thetis)举行婚礼时忘记了邀请不和女神厄里斯(Eris)。这位女神大为恼火，留下一个刻有“献给最美者”的金苹果，引起了雅典娜，赫拉和芙罗狄忒三者之间的战争，此事是特洛伊战争的导火线。
三、来源于作品故事
1．pound of flesh(形容以借款人的惨重损失和痛苦为代价的债务，也可以说是合法却极不合理的要求)。源于莎士比亚作品《威尼斯商人》，一个痛恨Antonio(作品中的人物)的商人答应借给他一大笔钱，但条件是如果他不能按时还清就要割下他身上的一磅肉。Antonio果然中了高利贷商人的奸计没能按期偿还。那奸商便告上法庭，名正言顺要割他的肉。
2．pie in the sky(天上掉下来的馅饼)。源自美国流行作曲家、世界产业联盟的组织者Joe Hill于1911年所作的一首著名歌曲《传教士与奴隶》。他在歌曲中写到：
You will eat，bye and bye，
In the glorious land above the sky!
Work and pray，live on hay，
You'll get PIE IN THE SKY when you die!
这几句歌词是Joe Hill从美国救世军军歌中引用过来的，意在讽刺这个宗教组织，揭露其欺骗性和虚伪性，唤醒广大被压迫的奴隶，后来人们就用pie in the sky比喻不能实现的事情或东西。
四、来源于《圣经》
1．doubting Thomas(怀疑的托马斯，指那些不肯轻易相信别人的人)。源自《圣经·新约·约翰福音》第20章，该篇讲到耶稣复活后出现在众人面前，十二门徒之一的托马斯没有亲眼见到，声称除非看到耶稣手上的钉痕，否则不信他已经复活。后来人们用“doubting Thomas”指那些不肯轻易相信别人的人。
2．feet of clay(泥足，致命的弱点)。典出《圣经·旧约·但以理书》第二章，巴比伦国王尼布甲尼撒(Nebuchadnezzar)梦到一泥足巨人，头是金的，胸臂是银的，腹部是铜的，被飞来的一块巨石砸碎了脚，整个巨人顿时瓦解。西伯来先知但以理(但以理为人名)释梦称这预示着国家的分裂。现多指“伟人不为人知的弱点或致命的弱点”。
五、来源于现实生活
Mother Teresa(乐善好施、无私地服务于他人的人)泰瑞莎修女是世界敬重的天主教慈善工作者，主要为印度加尔各答的穷人服务。

写一篇调查报告
针对某一现象、某一事件或某一问题进行深入细致调查后写一份调查报告，它要求根据调查结果，针对某种现象进行分析并谈谈自己的看法。
一、策略指导与解题技巧
1．应该站在读者的角度去思考。
2．要写明调查的原因、调查过程、调查结果以及你得出的结论。
3. 通常用一般现在时态。若出现具体的时间状语，如last year，next year，recently等，则根据具体使用适当的时态。
4．常见的写作方法：
①按调查的先后顺序逐点写；②按事物发展的阶段来写；③按调查对象的特点分门别类来写。④将两种事物进行对比，以显示其是非、优劣，找出其差异来写。
注意：叙述数据时要避免过多重复使用百分比，可以用约数、倍数等来表达。应选用有针对性的数据来说明问题，切忌面面俱到，一一罗列全部数据。应该对图表信息加以分析、归纳，选取有代表性的，如最大值，最小值，以及同类信息加以表述，做到主次分明、准确生动。
二、文章结构：
一般说来，文章开头应先交代调查的时间、对象、问题和主题或目的。其次，客观介绍调查的信息。根据不同的调查内容，选择不同的方法。一般是描述表格中数据所反映的情况，数据间的主要差异或趋势，有的还要求谈谈数据所反映出来的问题，并分析原因。最后，写出自己的观点或提出解决该问题的方案。
注意：在进行客观介绍这一部分时，应尽量避免过多使用同一种句式。其次，要学会从题目中提取信息。
[题目要求]

A set of guidelines coming 30 force from next January will also ban food and drink at on?site performances and forbid entry to anyone who is drunk.
“Show operators are also held to strict decibel limits 31 rules covering the installation and removal of scenery，Korka added.”

Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (30 marks)

If you were to come up with a list of organizations whose failures had done the most damage to the American economy in recent years，you would probably have to start with the Wall Street firms that brought us the financial crisis.From there，you might move on to the automakers in Detroit.
But I would suggest that the list should also include a less obvious nominee：public education.
At its top level，the American system of higher education may be the best in the world.Yet in terms of its core mission—turning teenagers into educated college graduates—much of the system is failing.
The United States does a good job enrolling(招生)teenagers in college，but only half of the students who enroll end up with a bachelor's degree.
So identifying the causes of the college dropout crisis in the world's largest economy matters enormously，and a new book called “Grossing the Finish Line” tries to do precisely that.Its authors are economists Willian Bowen and Michael Mcpherson，and a doctoral candidate Matthew Chingos.The first problem they diagnose is something they call under?matching.It refers to students who choose not to attend the best college they can get into.They instead go to a less selective one，perhaps one that is closer to home or less expensive.About half of the low?income students with a grade?point average of at least 3.5 in high school and an SAT score of at least 1,200 do not attend the best college they could have.“I was really astonished by the degree to which well?qualified students from poor families under?matched，”said Mr Bowen.
In fact，well?off students attend the colleges that do the best job of producing graduates.Meanwhile，lower?income students—even when they are better qualified—often go to colleges that excel(擅长)in producing dropouts.“It's really a waste，” Mr Bowen said，“and a big problem for the country.”As the authors point out，the only way to lift the college graduation rate significantly is to lift it among poor and working?class students.Instead，it appears to have fallen.
What can be done？Money is clearly part of the answer.
36．Which of the following would people first think of as a factor responsible for the American financial crisis according to this passage?
A．The government.
B．Public education.
C．The Detroit automakers.
D．The Wall Street firms.
37．What is a big problem with American higher education?
A．It is hard to enroll enough students into college.
B．Many colleges are experiencing low rate of graduation.
C．Many college students stay away from classes.
D．It is hard for many colleges to get financial aid from the government.
38．The title of the book Crossing the Finish Line probably means ________.
A．running to the end of the line
B．going to college
C．finishing college education
D．working hard in college
39．Why do some students under?match?
A．Because they have financial difficulty.
B．Because they face ambition crisis.
C．Because they lack confidence.
D．Because they can't get guidance.
40．The passage is mainly about ________.
A．problems with secondary American education and possible solutions
B．America's financial crisis，its cause and influence
C．low rate of American college graduation，its cause and its influence
D．relationship between American education and its economy

School life is one of the most important periods in the life of man.It is also the most dreadful.This is because the educational system is based only on marks and is very competitive.
In the past，exams were held to help the teacher know how far a student had understood the subject.Now，they are held to test how far a student can remember the notes.
There is no value for the student who has understood the subject.Value is given only to the student who is able to reproduce the answer word by word.The present educational system brings a great pressure on the students.The teachers and parents aid in increasing the pressure.Teachers give students loads of homework simply because writing twice is equal to reading ten times.
It is true but how can a child complete the homework of all five subjects in one day?
Parents_want_to_live_their_life_through_their_kids.They send the child to dozen classes just because they were not able to learn dance & music，swimming&karate，but it doesn't mean that the child has to learn all these things in their place.They want their kids to excel (擅长) in everything. They also compare them to other students.
The usual dialogue in a house is “Mr X's daughter has scored 98.64% and you have just scored 97.03%！” They don't realize that by saying such things they discourage the child.
Students are also human beings.They also have the same feelings as others.They also need a break from their work.Too much reading can affect their brain too.When the brain is not able to store all the information fed into it，it stops storing more data.This again leads to poor marks in the exams.
46．Which of the following is a problem of the present educational system mentioned in the text?
A．It asks students to answer questions orally.
B．It values students' correct notes in class.
C．It requires students to understand the subjects.
D．It pays much attention to students' marks.
47．The underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph shows that ________.
A．parents want to live with their children forever
B．parents want their children to realize their dreams
C．parents want to live a better life through their children
D．parents want their children to live a better life
48．Some parents compare their children with others，which will ________.
A．make their children hate others
B．cause their children work harder
C．make their children lose heart
D．improve their children's self?confidence
49．The last paragraph probably suggests that ________.
A．different students also have the same feelings
B．a lot of reading leads to poor marks in the exams
C．poor exam marks result from too much reading
D．much pressure causes low learning effciency
50．By writing the text，the writer tells us that ________.
A．homework is a load to students
B．the life of students is colorful
C．students have too much pressure
D．school life is very important

Gaul，with about 170 seventh and eighth?graders，has its own history of lower level academic achievement.One likely reason：Education beyond the basic requirements hasn't always been a top priority for families who've worked the same land for generations.Here，few adults have college degrees，and outsiders (teachers included) are often kept at a respectful distance.
Since 2002，Gaul's students have been divided into four classes，each of them taught almost every subject by two teachers.The goal：To find common threads across disciplines to help students create a big picture that gives fresh meaning and context to their classwork—and sparks motivation for learning.
Working within state guidelines，each team makes its individual schedules and lesson plans，incorporating non?textbook literature，hands?on lab work and field trips.If students are covering the Civil War in social studies，they're reading The Red Badge of Courage or some other period literature in English class.In science，they study the viruses and bacteria that caused many deaths in the war.
Team teaching isn't unusual.About 77 percent of middle schools now employ some form of it，says John Lounsbury，consulting editor for the National Middle School Association.But most schools use four?or?five person teams，which Gaul tried before considering two?person teams more effective.Gaul supports the team concept by“looping” classes(跟班)so that the same two teachers stick with the same teens through seventh and eighth grades.Combining teems and looping creates an extremely strong bond between teacher and student.It also，says teacher Beth Ahlholm，“allows us to build an excellent relationship with parents.”
Ahlholm and teammate Madelon Kelly are fully aware how many glazed looks they see in the classroom，but they know 72 percent of their eighth?graders met Maine's reading standard last year—double the statewide average.Only 31 percent met the maths standard，still better than the state average(21 percent)．Their students also beat the state average in writing and science.And in 2006，Gaul was one of 47 schools in the state to see testing gains of at least 20 percent in four of the previous five years，coinciding roughly with team teaching's arrival.
Section B (10 marks)
Greg Woodburn，a student at the University of Southern California，spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers once belonging to others.Soon the shoes will have new owners：under?privileged children in the United States and 20 other countries，thanks to Woodburn's Share Our Soles(S.O.S.)charity(慈善)．
A high school track star in the beach town of Ventura，Woodburn was once sidelined for months with foot injuries.
“I started thinking about all the things I got from running—the health benefits，the friendships，the confidence，” he says.“And I realized there are children who don't even have shoes.”
Woodburn gathered up his own slightly worn sneakers，then put out a call to teammates.His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas 2006.When the count climbed to more than 500 pairs(“everything snowballed，” he says)，he decided to turn the shoes drive into a year?round effort.
Back then，the sneakers came from donation boxes and the local sporting goods store and from door?to?door pickups.Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools and area race.To date，S.O.S.has collected and donated more than 3,000 pairs.
In just under three years，Woodburn has started three chapters of Share Our Soles：the original in Ventura，another at USC，and one at the College of the Holy Cross in Massachusetts last January，when a student there wrote asking to get involved.The organization's website，shareoursoles.org，keeps and distributes sneakers and sells wrist bands and socks(the money earned from that go toward new shoes and socks for children)．

综合检测(四)
1．C 考查有关动词在语意和使用上的区别。句意：——你怎么没买黄油？——我打算买但是忘记了。mean的过去式为meant，在此处意为“打算”。
2．B 四个动词短语的主要含义：carry on“继续”；feed on“吃，以……为食”；put on“上演，穿/戴上”；focus on“聚焦于”。句意：蝴蝶以花卉产生的一种甜甜的液体为食，蜜蜂和别的昆虫则采集这种液体。根据句意选B，表示“吃，以……为食”。
3．A 本题含有“leave＋宾语＋宾补”结构，分词和不定式都可作该结构的补语；根据句意知此处应为“使某人感到不满意的”，故应用过去分词形式的形容词unsatisfied作补语。
4．B 考查时态。根据句意，“告诉”这一动作还未发生，应用一般将来时。D项是be to do sth.结构，表示按照计划安排要发生的事，不合语境。
5．A 考查as引导的方式状语从句。as连接方式状语从句时表示“正如……”。
6．B 句意：为了确保博物馆里的文物保存完好，西藏文化保护协会采用了现代技术来监测文物的情况。apply运用，使用；adapt使适应，改编；appoint任命，指定，约定；abolish废止，革除。
7．C 考查regular用作形容词作定语的用法。句意：护士每隔一定的时间给这个病人量血压。故选C。
8．A 句意：在伦敦一些地方，错过一辆车就意味着再等一小时。mean doing sth.“意味着什么”；mean to do sth.“打算做什么”。
9．B as为关系代词，引导一个非限制性定语从句，指代主句整个内容。若用it，则：It is known to everybody that she is...。
10．B take up“开始从事”。句意：为了放松一下，他最近开始下象棋。take on“穿上，呈现”；hold on“握住”；hold up“阻碍”。
11．B 句意：——我收到的这件T恤衫和网页上展示的不一样。——怎么会呢？不过我向您保证我们会立刻查清楚的。Who says谁说的；How come怎么会(表达说话人的惊讶之情)；What for为什么；Why worry为什么担心。这段对话是关于网购的，发生在买家和客服之间，根据答语中的But可知客服对于买家反映的情况表示惊讶，但还是承诺会查清楚。
12．C 考查非谓语动词。句意：车内安装了显示确切位置的电子地图后，司机就可以朝正确的目的地方向行驶了。fixed in the car 与 showing the exact position 都是宾语补足语，修饰 the electric map。the electric map与 fix 是被动关系；the electric map与showing the exact position 之间是主动关系。
13．B 句意：我们想说些什么，但是她不听任何解释。however在此用作副词。
14．A furnish...with...用……装备……，符合句意。instructs“引导”；admits“承认”；quits“放弃”，均不合句意。
15．C 考查让步状语从句。句意：无论他回来的有多晚，他母亲都是等着他一块吃晚饭。however作连词，引导让步状语从句。
16．A 父亲把一家人集中在客厅里，进行搬家前的动员。gather 表示“聚集，靠拢”，hurt、beat、hit 都表示打，根据下文，父亲并没有惩罚孩子们。
17．B 根据下文“I awoke on a train moving across the country”可知作者一家搬家了。
18. C big 在此处指父亲话的分量大小程度，照应了 small。
19．A 因为只有作者对新事物的陌生，才有好奇的探究。familiar表示“熟悉的”；vivid“生动的”，不代表 mysterious yet to come。
20．A 经过漫长的火车之旅，作者一家终于安居新家。settle in 意为live in“定居”。
21．D 从下文可以知道他对周围的环境充满好奇，所以很容易理解作者当时的心情，eagerly 表示“急切地”。bitterly“痛苦地”；easily“容易地”；proudly“自豪地”，均不符合题意。
22．B 因为刚刚移居一个新环境，因而活动就比较频繁。as usual 表示“像往常一样”，符合题意。as well“也”；right away “立刻，马上”；on time “按时”。
23．B in fact 在这里强调他对新的环境比较陌生。in fact“事实上”；at most“至多”；at least“至少”；at best 则表示“充其量”。
24．A 根据下文“How could...the desert”很显然他们是在沙漠里进行的对话。
25．A 根据下文vastness，可以判断作者不知道用什么词来描绘沙漠，这里考查了句型 How do you find something？(你觉得……怎么样？)
26．C 根据下文“you also feel that”可以知道置身于茫茫沙漠中，才会有那种心灵的感受。prove “证明”；guess “猜”；expect “期望”。
27．D also 表示他的感受有两个方面，所以选表示并列的连词 meanwhile，而 thus，otherwise都表示转折，therefore 表示前因后果。
28．to 29.that/which 30.into 31.and
32．on 33.there 34.such 35.the
36．D 细节理解题。由第一段第一句．..you would probably have to start with the Wall Street firms that brought us the financial crisis.可知答案。
37．B 细节理解题。由第四段可知许多大学中获得学士学位的毕业生仅仅占一半，故答案选B。
38．C 词义猜测题。由第五段第一句可知通过 Crossing the Finish Line 这本书可以了解美国大学生辍学的原因。所以“Grossing the Finish Line”的意思应该是完成大学教育。
39．A 推理判断题。由第五段和第六段可知一些贫困家庭的学生因为经济问题没有上他们能上的最好的大学，而上一些辍学率高的大学。由此可推知A项正确。文中没有和B、C、D选项相关的信息。
40．C 主旨大意题。分析全文不难看出文章主要描述了美国大学低毕业率的状况，分析了其中的原因以及对美国经济的影响，故答案为C。A项中的secondary American education(美国的中等教育)错误，B项与主题无关，D项不是文章的主旨。
41．B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的“Canada offered the lowest tuition fees for foreign students compared to UK and Australia.”可知答案。
42．C 推理判断题。根据文章第四段可知完成学士学位最少需要3年时间、硕士学位2年、博士学位最少3年，加起来共是8年。
43．D 细节理解题。文章提到了去加拿大留学的许多好处，如教学质量高、环境安全、工作前景好等，但没有提到奖学金的情况。
44．A 作者态度题。从全文看，作者对去加拿大留学持肯定态度。
45．D 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一些在加拿大留学的好处。
46．D 从第一段的“the educational system is based only on marks”可知现在的教育只重视学生的分数，所以D项符合题意。
47．B 结合后面的“they were not able to learn dance & music，swimming & karate，but it doesn't mean that the child has to learn all these things in their place.”可知父母因为没有机会学会自己喜欢的东西，所以把希望寄托在孩子身上，希望通过他们来实现自己的愿望。因此选B项。
48．C 从倒数第二段的“...they discourage the child”可知拿自己的孩子与其他孩子作比较会使自己的孩子灰心丧气。
49．D 结合最后一段的“When the brain is not able to store all the information fed into it，it stops storing more data.This again leads to poor marks in the exams.”可知大脑的承受能力是有限的，书看多了就会适得其反，大脑就停止存储信息了，反而会影响考试成绩，所以选D项。
50．C 本文主要介绍了现代教育制度给学生们带来的压力——考试分数的压力、作业的压力、父母的期望造成的压力等等，所以C项正确。
51．achieved 52.Further education 53.rather than 54.motivated 55.adopted/conducted 56.tie/connection 57.success
58．reaching 59.10/ten 60.at least 20
61．Woodburn and his Share Our Soles. 62.To help the unlucky poor children. 63.To show thankfulness. 64.Woodburn succeeded in this charity.
【参考范文】
As_can_be_seen_in_the_cartoon，the young couple educate their child_in different_ways.Father educates their child with a ruler but Mother with a bar of chocolate.What is illustrated in the picture is that Father is too hard on their child while Mother spoils him.They adopt strikingly inconsistent methods，which makes their child confused.
I subscribe to neither of their education methods.If we always give children severe punishment，they will become nervous and lack self-confidence or become violent and aggressive，following in the father's footsteps.If we always love children too much，they will turn out to be self-centered and dependent，tending to do whatever they want to.
So far as I am concerned，it is better to use appropriate methods based on children's individual personalities.Since praise and criticism both play vital roles in children's education，it is essential that parents should try to maintain the balance between love and strictness.Only in this way can children benefit from proper family education and achieve all-round development.

Studies show that the way most of us spend our mornings is exactly opposite to the conditions that experts tell us to promote open-minded thinking.Take hurried wake-up for example；in a study，researchers reported that imaginative (富于想象的) ideas are most likely to come to us when we're powerless and not focused.The brain conditions are at their weakest in these moments，allowing unexpected connections to be made.Sleepy people's “more outward moving thinking”leads them to “widen their search” which leads to an increase in creative problem solving.By not giving yourself time to adjust your absent mind，you're missing the surprising solutions it may offer.
The stress hormone(荷尔蒙) can harm certain physical parts that coat our brain cells.Damage to these parts slows down the speed with which signals are transported，making lightningquick “Find it！” moments less likely.A recent study found that subjects (被试者) who watched a sorrow-making video were less able to solve problems creatively than people who watched an upward video.A positive mood，wrote professor Ruby Nadler，increases “adaptability of recognition” while a negative one narrows our scope.
So what should we do in mornings？We'd set the alarm a few minutes early and lie awake in bed，following our thoughts where they lead and writing down any creative thought.
And once in the office，one of the right things to do is drink coffee.Caffeine(咖啡因) not only makes us more alert，but also increases the brain's level of positive hormone，which influences feelings of motivation and reward when we hit on a great idea.After we get that cup of coffee，we'd direct our computer browser not to the news of the day but to the funniest videos the web offers.Now there's YouTube-video of laughing resources.Laughing is a good way to start the day.
36．We can infer from Paragraph 1 that most people may ________ in mornings.
A．rush to make themselves awakening
B．promote open-minded thinking
C．do as experts tell them to do
D．try to solve problems creatively
37．In Paragraph 2 the author tells us that________.
A．the stress hormone is a kind of skin
B．the stress hormone coats our brain cells
C．sorrow-making videos are less capable than upward videos
D．the stress hormone may damage certain physical parts
38．What might as well we do in the morning?
A．To set the alarm a few minutes earlier than working time.
B．To lie awake in bed.
C．To note the good idea that occurs to us while in bed.
D．To lead to where creative thought exists.
B
You've been waiting an hour to eat breakfast but your guests are still snoozing.
“Unless you corrdinated(调整)a time for breakfast the evening before，let your guests sleep-in and enjoy your breakfast without them.If possible，keep their breakfast warm，or，better yet，when entertaining it's always a good idea to have cold breakfast (as well as lunch，dinner and snack)food on-hand.”
You're hosting out-of-town friends for a couple of weeks.The husband is vegetarian (素食者) and the wife is a picky eater.Cooking for them is proving to be a strain on your budget and your nerves.
“As a gracious host，you want to make sure and accommodate your guest's dietary needs，especially when they are related to health issues.Make an attempt to offer at least one dish based on his or her preferences.Those with special dietary needs are usually familiar with eating creatively.But if your guests get too picky or demanding，it is not necessary to break the bank.You can say ‘If you would provide the ingredients，I would be happy to follow the recipe’．”
Your guest's teenage son is a Facehook addict and hogs your computer all day long.
“If you have a guest whose fingers are fixated on your keyboard，kindly let him know that you are expecting work e-mail and give him enough time to finish using it.”
Your visitors don't have a car and demand that you drive them everywhere.
“If you've invited them，then you should at least offer to pick them up and return them to the airport.But draw the line there.It's time to remove your chauffeur's hat.If you have a second car not in use，you could offer them the keys after you confirm they are insured.Or，keep the chauffeur's hat on and offer to drive them to the nearest rental car agency due to their busy schedule.”

B．try to offer one of his/her preferences
C．try making him/her eat “creatively”
D．attempt to break your bank

By the middle of the 19th century，newspapers had become the primary means of providing and receiving information.The time between 1890 and 1920 is known as the “golden age”of the print media.
The radio broadcast was widely used in the 1920's.Newspapers had to reevaluate their part as the primary information provider.Like the new media technology of today，the development of a low-cost and convenient media source produced results that radio would greatly affect the newspaper industry.In order to change this situation，editors spent a lot of time on the new design and at the same time more information and stories were added to newspapers.
Hardly had newspapers adapted to radio when they began to reevaluate themselves because of a new and more powerful medium: television.Television became popular for the colorful pictures in it.Between 1940 and 1990，the sale of newspapers in America dropped from one newspaper for every two adults to one for every four adults.Some newspapers，like USA Today，started to use the short and quick stories that are usually featured on television.
The technological development of today is creating new challenges and opportunities for traditional media.More and more websites are added to the Internet and almost any information can be found.The amount and rapidity of information on the Internet can be matchless，but it doesn't mean the end of the newspaper's existence.Newspapers in print remain a popular and powerful medium for the reporting.Thousands of people in the world read a newspaper every day!
43．Radio had a great influence on the newspaper industry because________.
A．it was cheaper and easier to receive information from radio
B．many people were too poor to buy newspapers in the 1920's
C．nobody supported the development of the newspaper industry
D．newspapers were not a primary information provider any longer
44．USA Today is mentioned as an example to tell us________.
A．it was a famous newspaper then
B．it had the most information at that time
C．some newspapers use some advantages of television
D．television is a major means of media in the world
45．We can learn from this passage that________.
A．newspapers still play an important part in our life
B．the “golden age” of the print media is in the 1920's
C．radio took the place of newspapers completely in the 1920's
D．newspapers can never catch up with the modern means or media

Poet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours(绕行路) in life than by the narrow road toward goals.I like this image.But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.
For years we made the long drive from our home in Seattle to my parents' home in Boise in nine hours.We traveled the way most people do: the fastest，shortest，easiest road，especially when I was alone with four noisy，restless kids who hate confinement(限制) and have strong opinions about everything.
Road trips felt risky，so I would drive fast，stopping only when I had to.We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired.
But then Banner，our lamb was born.He was rejected by his mama days before our planned trip to Boise.I had two choices：leave Banner with my husband，or take him with me.My husband made the decision for me.
That is how I found myself on the road with four kids，a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through.We took the country roads out of necessity.We had to stop every hour，let Banner shake out his legs and feed him.The kids chased him and one another.They'd get back in the car breathless and energized，smelling fresh from the cold air.
We explored side roads，catching grasshoppers in waist-high grass.Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother，or fish leaping out of the water，it was better than the best ride down the freeway.Here was life.And new horizons (见识)．
We eventually arrived at my parents' doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories.
I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique.On an empty section of road，everyone started quarreling.I stopped the car，ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead.I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence.
Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight.But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of a journey—and the best part of yourself.
46.Why did the author use to take freeways to her parents' home?
A．It was less tiring.
B．It would be faster and safer.
C．Her kids would feel less confined.
D．She felt better with other drivers nearby.
47．The author stopped regularly on the country roads to ________.
A．relax in the fresh air
B．take a deep breath
C．take care of the lamb
D．let the kids play with Banner
48．What does the author discover from the trip according to Paragraph 6?
A．Freeways are where beauty hides.
B．Getting close to nature adds to the joy of life.
C．Enjoying the beauty of nature benefits one's health.
D．One should follow side roads to watch wild animals.
49．Why did the author ask the kids to get out of the car on their way back home?
A．To give herself some time to read.
B．To order some food for them.
C．To play a game with them.
D．To let them cool down.
50．What could be the best title for the passage?
A．Charm of the Detour
B．The Road to Bravery
C．Creativity out of Necessity
D．Road Trip and Country Life

(2013·扬州中学高三模拟)When I opened my e-mail the other day，a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen.She greeted me by name and started talking enthusiastically.Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss.She was reading to me an e-mail from my brother，and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to give him a high-speed Internet connection.It was pretty cool.
Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail.Facemail lets you send e-mails that can be read to the receiver by an attractive male or female form or by a clown.The software，which is free，can be downloaded at www.Facemail.com.
Facemail faces are lifelike，and they copy emotions based on the ones that you put in your text.For example，type in X，and Rachel blows a kiss.
Life FX，the company that develops the Facemail is sure there are broad business uses.The reason e-business is not popular，the company says，is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch.But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan greeted you by name，waited on you and personally closed the sale？And the company is talking with Whirlpool about using the technology in a computer screen on a fridge.Then if Mom can't be home when the kids get back from school，she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
Facemail could get hot fast.Personally，I'm a fan.But Facemail should be used with words in an e-mail and add angry emotions when you've got a psycho-mail.
Title：A New Technology on Facemail

综合检测(四)
1．C 考查有关动词在语意和使用上的区别。句意：——你怎么没买黄油？——我打算买但是忘记了。mean的过去式为meant，在此处意为“打算”。
2．B 四个动词短语的主要含义：carry on“继续”；feed on“吃，以……为食”；put on“上演，穿/戴上”；focus on“聚焦于”。句意：蝴蝶以花卉产生的一种甜甜的液体为食，蜜蜂和别的昆虫则采集这种液体。根据句意选B，表示“吃，以……为食”。
3．A 本题含有“leave＋宾语＋宾补”结构，分词和不定式都可作该结构的补语；根据句意知此处应为“使某人感到不满意的”，故应用过去分词形式的形容词unsatisfied作补语。
4．B 考查时态。根据句意，“告诉”这一动作还未发生，应用一般将来时。D项是be to do sth.结构，表示按照计划安排要发生的事，不合语境。
5．A 考查as引导的方式状语从句。as连接方式状语从句时表示“正如……”。
6．B 句意：为了确保博物馆里的文物保存完好，西藏文化保护协会采用了现代技术来监测文物的情况。apply运用，使用；adapt使适应，改编；appoint任命，指定，约定；abolish废止，革除。
7．C 考查regular用作形容词作定语的用法。句意：护士每隔一定的时间给这个病人量血压。故选C。
8．A 句意：在伦敦一些地方，错过一辆车就意味着再等一小时。mean doing sth.“意味着什么”；mean to do sth.“打算做什么”。
9．B as为关系代词，引导一个非限制性定语从句，指代主句整个内容。若用it，则：It is known to everybody that she is...。
10．B take up“开始从事”。句意：为了放松一下，他最近开始下象棋。take on“穿上，呈现”；hold on“握住”；hold up“阻碍”。
11．B 句意：——我收到的这件T恤衫和网页上展示的不一样。——怎么会呢？不过我向您保证我们会立刻查清楚的。Who says谁说的；How come怎么会(表达说话人的惊讶之情)；What for为什么；Why worry为什么担心。这段对话是关于网购的，发生在买家和客服之间，根据答语中的But可知客服对于买家反映的情况表示惊讶，但还是承诺会查清楚。
12．C 考查非谓语动词。句意：车内安装了显示确切位置的电子地图后，司机就可以朝正确的目的地方向行驶了。fixed in the car 与 showing the exact position 都是宾语补足语，修饰 the electric map。the electric map与 fix 是被动关系；the electric map与showing the exact position 之间是主动关系。
13．B 句意：我们想说些什么，但是她不听任何解释。however在此用作副词。
14．A furnish...with...用……装备……，符合句意。instructs“引导”；admits“承认”；quits“放弃”，均不合句意。
15．C 考查让步状语从句。句意：无论他回来的有多晚，他母亲都是等着他一块吃晚饭。however作连词，引导让步状语从句。

【参考范文】
As_can_be_seen_in_the_cartoon，the young couple educate their child in_different_ways.Father educates their child with a ruler but Mother with a bar of chocolate.What is illustrated in the picture is that Father is too hard on their child while Mother spoils him.They adopt strikingly inconsistent methods，which makes their child confused.
I subscribe to neither of their education methods.If we always give children severe punishment，they will become nervous and lack self-confidence or become violent and aggressive，following in the father's footsteps.If we always love children too much，they will turn out to be self-centered and dependent，tending to do whatever they want to.
So far as I am concerned，it is better to use appropriate methods based on children's individual personalities.Since praise and criticism both play vital roles in children's education，it is essential that parents should try to maintain the balance between love and strictness.Only in this way can children benefit from proper family education and achieve all-round development.

Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
She is widely seen as proof that good looks can last forever.But, at over 500 years of age, time_is_catching_up_with_the_Mona_Lisa.
The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci (莱昂纳多·达·芬奇)in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫博物馆)where it is housed.“The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago，”the museum said.Visitors have noticed the changes but repairing the world's most famous painting is not easy.Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current(现在的) chemical state.
Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year，and many are attracted by the mystery of her smile.“It is very interesting that when you're not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops，” said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University.“It's because direct vision(视觉) is excellent at picking up details, but less suited to look at shadows.Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”
However，the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile.Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it was eventually sold to France's King Francis Ⅰ in 1169.
In 1911，the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat.He said he planned to return it to Italy.The painting was sent back to France two years later.
During World War Ⅱ， French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.
Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.
1. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means the Mona Lisa________.
A．is losing its value
B．is being damaged after so many years
C．is getting more valuable with years passing
D．will rot away
2．The smile of the Mona Lisa can only be seen________.
A．by indirect vision B．at a distance
C．by direct vision D．in shadows
3．Which of the following is TRUE about Mona Lisa?
A．It was once taken away and hidden up by German forces.
B．Its painter himself loved it greatly and always kept it in a shade.
C．Mona Lisa stops smiling when you look at her wanting to see her smiles.
D．King Francis Ⅰ bought it and then returned it to Italy.
4．It may add to the difficulty in repairing the painting that________.
A．experts haven't noticed changes in its shape as visitors do
B．it is likely to be stolen again when it's under repair
C．it is uncertain which country, Italy or France, should take charge
D．experts aren't sure about the materials and the chemical state of its oil paint
5．From the last paragraph，we can infer that________.
A．many interesting stories have been written about the Mona Lisa
B．people are interested in the stories about the Mona Lisa
C．some mysteries still remain to be solved about the Mona Lisa
D．many more stories will be told about the Mona
Lisa
B
When I started teaching in school，I was sure I would change the world and touch children who needed love.
Although most of my students seemed to respond pretty well to my teaching，there was a small group of teenage girls who became more and more hostile(敌对的) toward me.
One day a fight happened in my classroom.Attempting to end it，I stepped in to face one of these hostile young women，who started hitting me in the face.Two boys jumped up to control the girl，but the damage was done.
While the girl was suspended(暂时停学) for a few days，I was determined that she would not return
to my classroom.But I also prayed.I wanted to see all the students right there in my daily work at school.
On the top of my daily lesson-plan book，I wrote this statement，“To see all the children in my classroom as always beautiful.”It was the first thing I saw each day when I started teaching.With this view I could expect healing in my heart of any anger toward the girl.
After her suspension，she returned to my classroom.The student's young mother was trying to raise six children while her husband was away in the war overseas.The mother and I agreed to work together to help her eldest daughter.
There were no more incidents of anger the rest of the year.In fact，in the seven years I remained at that school，I taught all six of this family's children.When the youngest was in my class，the mother told me，“Our family loves you.Every year one of my kids says，‘I hope I' m in her classroom！’”
The standard of seeing each of my students as perfect was the best teaching tool I had，which led to success in the classroom.
6．At the beginning of teaching，the author ________.
A．was full of confidence in herself
B．doubted if she could be a good teacher
C．was sure to win love from her students
D．decided to change her students' life
7．What happened in the author's class one day?
A．A girl fought with two boys.
B．She was hit by a girl.
C．She hit a girl in the face.
D．She fought with several girls.
8．How was the girl punished?
A．She was sent to another class.
B．She was driven out of school at once.
C．She had to stay at home for a few days.
D．She was beaten heavily by her mother.
9．When the girl returned to school，________.
A．she apologized to the author
B．she took her mother to school
C．the author was still angry with her
D．the author treated her with love
10．It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A．the author got along better with boys
B．the author tried to let the girl come to her class
C．the girl's mother was very thankful to the author
D．all the six kids of the woman are hard to teach

课时作业(十)
Ⅰ.1.previewing 2.terrified 3.furnished 4.brochures
5．numerous 6.astronomy 7.catalogue 8.hooked
9．frying 10.psychology
Ⅱ.1.C 句意：学期开始的时候，老师让学生们提前了解要学习的内容。review回顾，复习，view风景，意见，revision修正，复习，都不符合题意，故选C。
2．D 空格后面的宾语是名词，所以用decided on。句意：你结婚的日子选好了吗？
3．C 答句句意：噢，我本应该去参加昨天迈克的生日聚会的，但我忘了。完整的答语为Well，I should have come to Mike's birthday party yesterday but I forgot it.助动词have不省略。
4．B 题干中he was used to是定语从句修饰主语the country life，所以空格处应为主句的谓语，只有B项正确。
5．A 考查动词短语辨析。apply to 适合。句意：他的诉讼暂时难以判决，因为所有现存的法律没有适用于它的。故选A。
6．A course意为“课程”。句意：他已经报名参加了一门英语课程，我希望他会取得很大进步。故选A。
7．D mean后接不定式和动名词意义不同；mean to do sth.“打算做某事”；mean doing sth.“意味着做某事”，由句意可知，此处须用动名词作宾语。
8．D 句意：我在工作上遇到了问题，真的不知道怎么处理才好。 根据句意，选择D项。
9．B 考查regularly的用法。句意：我的爸爸告诉我要定期把汽车送去检修。此处应用副词，故选B项。
10．A 句意：除了一个立在墙角的书架外，整个房间是空着的。分析句子结构知，主句是“The room is empty.”，except for后接名词、代词或动名词形式，它的后面不可能是一个句子，因此后一个空不可能填谓语动词，所以排除选项C、D；再根据a bookshelf与stand构成逻辑上的主谓关系，且stand这一动作正在发生着，故选项A符合句意。选项B是不定式，表示动作尚未发生，不符合句意。
11．A 句意：有少数人被牵涉其中，可能才20人。as few as常用来强调数量出乎意料地少。根据语境可知A项正确。
12．B 由主句时态看出，从句应表将来，所以C项不对；又因此处不表示已完成的动作，所以A项不对。条件句中不用将来时态，故D项错误。
13．A 句意：这所学校并不是我真正想去读的学校，但我认为我得充分利用它。make the best of充分利用，符合句意。get away from逃脱；keep an eye on监视；catch up with赶上。
14．B to choose from作定语，修饰five pairs，并且与之构成逻辑上的动宾关系。
15．B offer主动提供，furnish装饰，符合句意。supply(大批量)供应；provide提供。
Ⅲ.1.B 推理判断题。根据下文Mona Lisa的历史可推出，这里指的是随着时间的推移，Mona Lisa遭到一些损坏，关键句“...is getting worse by the year...”，因此B项为正确答案。
2．A 细节理解题。关键句“It's because direct vision is excellent at picking up details，but less suited to look at shadows.”因此Mona Lisa的微笑只能indirect vision才能看见。
3．C 细节理解题。关键句“It's very interesting that when you're not looking at her，she seems to be smiling，and then you look at her and she stops.”。
4．D 细节理解题。关键句“Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current chemical state.”这件事将增加他们修复这幅画的困难。
5．C 推理判断题。关键句“...the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.”，这表明Mona Lisa这幅名画还有很多事情有待我们去探索、发现、解决。
【语篇解读】 要做一名成功的老师，就要对学生充满爱。
6．A 细节理解题。结合第一段可知，作者认为自己可以改变世界，可以感动学生，可见作者对自己充满了信心，故选A项。
7．B 细节理解题。根据第三段的．..who started hitting me in the face...可知，作者在劝架时被一个女孩打在了脸上。
8．C 细节理解题。结合第四段的While the girl was suspended for a few days.可知，这个女孩被停课几天，所以选C项。

A
My first job was at a local diner, where I worked for seven years and learned so many lessons, especially from a fellow waitress.
Helen was in her 60s and had extraordinary self-respect, something I was really lacking. I looked up to Helen__1__she was doing what she loved— serving people—and nobody did it__2__. She always made everyone, customers and co-workers，__3__and feel good.
Being a waitress changed my life. One of my regular customers was Fred Hasbrook. He always ate an omelet, and when I saw him__4__， I tried to have it on his table as soon as he sat down.

Ⅳ.阅读理解
Although I started learning English during my college years，when I entered the States，I only understood two English words “Yes” and “No”．We learned many grammar rules but we could not make the language connections to the real English world.Language frustration worries almost all first generation immigrants.For example，I got a letter from a Chinese-American who has lived in the States for a long time and has a good IT job saying “My 11-year-old girl writes quite well，but as her parents，we could not even read her article.”In addition，my Chinese American professor friend has difficulty reading a novel.Improving our English skills has become a long journey for all of us.Honestly，if I have a chance，I really want to reach out to everyone in the world who has had a similar experience：learning a second language in adulthood.I wish I could encourage them to speak out about the culture shock，frustration they felt about the differences between West and East.
I have mainly focused on my English writing since 2008 after I found “Literacy Volunteers”，an organization that specially focuses on helping immigrants improve their English.I decided to challenge myself，writing a story like an American.I saw many wonderful Americans there.As soon as I met my teacher Alice，I asked her to be my private language tutor and have taken Tims English class.Every week Alice and I have worked on my English essays sentence by sentence.
To observe the culture differences between West and East，occasionally，I posted a few of my English essays online.I mentioned previously about American culture; when people read the same article or even face the same situation，American and Chinese act very differently.In my viewpoint，these differences make America the strongest country in the world.I know you have the right to express your own opinions，but accusing others without proof is not acceptable.
1．The purpose of the passage is________.
A．to show how hard a Chinese-American lives in America
B．to share her experience of improving her English
C．to imply grammar rules are not important
D．to warn Chinese-Americans of English
2．The underlined word “frustration” in the first paragraph means________.
A．failure and setbacks
B．words and problems
C．understanding and progress
D．slang and idioms
3．If the author had a good master of English，________.
A．she would open a school for Chinese-Americans
B．she would like to hear the differences spoken out
C．she could lend a hand to the children for learning
D．she might earn some money by giving advice
4．In the passage，“Literacy Volunteers” is________.
A．only intended to help the Chinese-Americans
B．an organization which is set up to make a profit
C．of great use to people like the author
D．a school showing how to enjoy literature
5．From the last paragraph we can learn that ________.
A．Americans and Chinese are of the same idea about something
B．culture shock only exists between Chinese and Americans
C．accusing others freely can be acceptable in America
D．culture differences have great influence on the people

Ⅰ.1.surprisingly 2.aimless 3.unbeatable 4.heels 5.related 6.universes 7.associate 8.range 9.involved 10.refer
Ⅱ.1.C 句意：这家餐馆变得出名是由于它做的各种各样的食物满足所有人的口味。a wide range of意为“各种各样的”，符合题意。
2．A 句意：正如报道所说，许多人死于那次地震中。As引导的非限制性定语从句，指代后面句子的内容。
3．D be tied with被……捆绑；be associated with与……有关；be bound up with与……密切相关；be involved in牵涉……，忙于……。
4．D “be involved in doing sth.”热衷于做某事。
5．B 考查动词辨析。句意：他刚才谈到的那位移民是我父亲的一位朋友。refer to谈到，提到。
6．B effort努力，make efforts(to do sth.)努力(去做某事)。句意：请继续努力，我确信你正在付出的努力将会有所收获。effect影响；decision决定；impression印象。
7．C disappear消失；fall落下；damage毁坏，破坏；fail失败，衰弱，下降。此处指视力下降。句意：威廉姆发现阅读越来越困难了，因为他的视力开始下降了。故选C。
8．C when it comes to sth.意为“当提到……”。
9．B 考查非谓语动词。根据固定结构somebody seems/seemed to do/to have done等同于It seems/seemed that somebody did/does/has done，本句主体时态用一般过去时，说明事情已经发生，所以用不定式的完成式。
10．C 考查虚拟语气。本题关键是要抓住“demand”，它在表示“坚持，命令，要求，建议”的名词性从句时，从句要用somebody should do，should可以省略。
11．B 考查倒装。当so...that结构中，so位于句首时，句子用倒装语序，即so＋adj./adv.＋助动词＋主语＋that从句。
12．B 由“his temper and his health”可以排除D项，由后面的never表否定，可知选either，never...either是全部否定，相当于neither。
13．B 句意：公众缺少环保的习惯被认为是全球气候变化的主要原因。result结果；cause原因，起因；warning提醒，警告；reflection反射，反映。
14．D various作定语修饰things，故选D。
15．D link连接，联系；relate联系；connect连接；combine结合，联系，指把两个或两个以上不同的东西结合起来。本题指把养育孩子和工作结合起来，因此D项正确。
Ⅲ.1.A 分析空白前后之间的逻辑关系可知“she was doing what she loved”是“I looked up to Helen”的原因。所以空白处应填入because。
2．B 紧接着下去是海伦总能使所有人，顾客、同事心情舒畅。由此暗示别人都没有Helen做得好。故选B。
3．C 全句是说Helen工作表现出色，空白处和后面的feel good意思并列所以只能是smile。
4．D Fred总吃炒蛋，每次我看到他来，一坐下，我就端上炒蛋给他。空白处应填入coming。
5．B __5__from Helen是定语从句修饰confidence，意思是我从Helen身上学到的自信。pick up“偶然学得”。
6．D 当我打电话跟父母借钱(开饭店)时他们回答没有钱，该空白处应选D项。
7．D 和支票一块递给我的，上面写了两句话的只能是便条note，而不可能是letter(信)，sign(标志)，notice(通知)，故选D项。
8．A Fred是相信我的诚实为人才把钱借给我的，故空白处应选A项。
9．C 根据该空白所在句子的伴随状语推测我继续留在饭馆里工作。故空白处填continued。
10．C though副词，用于句子末尾，表示“然而”。
11．D 最终我还了Fred借的钱和利息，该空白处表示我最后获得成功。苍天不负有心人。该空白处填入Eventually。

13．up 14.its 15.laughter 16.less 17.of
18．on 19.that/which 20.a
Ⅳ.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者虽然在大学期间学了几年英语，但由于没有注重口语，以至于到了美国发现只能听懂“Yes”和“No”。类似的情况还发生在很多移民到美国的中国人身上。
1．B 主旨大意题。作者在文中简述了初到美国时自己的英语水平以及她如何提高自己的英语水平，故B符合题意。
2．A 词义猜测题。根据该词前面的句子可知，作者初到美国在语言方面有障碍，这类问题发生在很多移民身上，由此推断他们在语言方面受到了挫折，故选A。
3．B 细节理解题。在第一段的尾句，作者用了I wish I could...的虚拟语气结构，表明如果有能力，她愿意……故B与该句意义相符。
4．C 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的that specially focuses on helping immigrants improve their English可知，该组织是为了帮助移民提高英语水平，因为作者是移民，故C正确。
5．D 推理判断题。在尾段中，作者讲述了中美文化的差异，正是这种差异使美国成为一个强国，由此推断对国民有着重大的影响，故选D。误解分析：文化差异不仅仅只影响中美的国民，故排出B；根据最后一段的内容，排除A项；作者讲到没有证据的指控他人是不可接受的，故排除C项。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
My ten-year-old daughter Emma got home yesterday and spoke of a boy called Jake in her class.Being quite overweight，Jake is the butt(笑柄)of many jokes and is treated very badly by other kids.Jake gives the impression that he's not a nice guy，mostly because he's constantly picked on(捉弄)．
For several nights this week Emma came home upset about the fact that Jake gets picked on so much.She also mentioned that Jake had no school supplies as his family could not afford them.He was constantly asking to borrow paper，which just gives kids even more reason to pick on him.
One night Emma was extremely upset about this situation.We sat together that evening and discussed it in great detail.I suggested Emma talk to Jake and found out what supplies he needed.
The next day Emma talked to Jake and came to realize that Jake had a heart of gold，but rarely was able to show it because he was always on the defensive (防守的)．Emma asked Jake to make a list of the school supplies he needed.Jake put down 3 ring binders(活页夹)，paper，pens，pencils and a pencil sharpener.Emma told him she would help and he was most thankful.
That evening Emma and I went to the store and bought everything for Jake！When we got home，we put all the supplies into a brand new grey back pack—because Jake did not have a back pack either.
The next day，I brought the bag to the school principal and asked him to give the bag to Jake discreetly (谨慎地) so that he did not have to feel embarrassed.
That night Emma got home with smiles on her face.The principal had called Jake to his office and gave him the bag.As Jake walked into the classroom，he looked at Emma and later thanked her very much for all the stuff.He loved it all!
Emma said it was so nice to see him take out his new pencil box and to start arranging his pencils and pens.He seemed very happy.
1．What do we know about Jake from Paragraph 1?
A．He is tall，strong and easy-going.
B．He doesn't like to talk to his friends.
C．He is always laughed at by his classmates.
D．He is fond of playing tricks on his classmates.
2．How did Emma feel about Jake's situation?
A．Anxious. B．Concerned.
C．Supportive. D．Neutral.
3．Why did Emma talk to Jake the next day?
A．She meant to offer him some advice.
B．She hoped to know more about him.
C．She expected to make friends with him.
D．She wanted to find out what he needed.
4．Why did the author give the back pack to the principal?
A．To avoid Jake feeling embarrassed.
B．To inform that they did a good deed.
C．To let him know how poor Jake was.
D．To ask him to show concern about Jake.
5．What is the text mainly about?
A．A mother's love.
B．An act of kindness.
C．Emma's school life.
D．Jake's poor situation at school.
Ⅳ.阅读填空
We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed?ability teaching.On the contrary，both their knowledge and experience are enriched.We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming (把……按能力分班) pupils.It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates.It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not?so?bright child.After all，it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!
Besides，it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability.This is only one aspect of their total personality.We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full，not just their academic ability.We also value personal qualities and social skills，and we find that mixed?ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.
In our classrooms，we work in various ways.The pupils often work in groups：this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate，to share，and to develop leadership skills.They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think，to make decisions，to analyze and evaluate，and to communicate effectively.The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs，sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments，and they can do this at their own speed.They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate.We encourage our pupils to use the library，and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently.An advanced pupil can do advanced work：it does not matter what age the child is.We expect our pupils to do their best，not their least，and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.

11．C 句意：虽然通常我和我叔叔相处得很好，但他有时说话尖酸刻薄。sharp指“讽刺，挖苦”。
12．B 此处的关键是we can imagine作way的定语，且关系词在定语从句中作imagine的宾语，所以后面应用to do sth.或of doing sth.作way的另一定语，the only way to do sth.做某事的唯一方法/办法。句意：那是我们能够想出的减少学生宿舍过度用水的唯一方法。

A
She is widely seen as proof that good looks can last forever.But, at over 500 years of age, time_is_catching_up_with_the_Mona_Lisa.
The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci (莱昂纳多·达·芬奇)in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫博物馆)where it is housed.“The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago，”the museum said.Visitors have noticed the changes but repairing the world's most famous painting is not easy.Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current(现在的) chemical state.
Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year，and many are attracted by the mystery of her smile.“It is very interesting that when you're not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops，” said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University.“It's because direct vision(视觉) is excellent at picking up details, but less suited to look at shadows.Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”
However，the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile.Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it was eventually sold to France's King Francis Ⅰ in 1169.
In 1911，the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat.He said he planned to return it to Italy.The painting was sent back to France two years later.
During World War Ⅱ， French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.
Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.
1. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means the Mona Lisa________.
A．is losing its value
B．is being damaged after so many years
C．is getting more valuable with years passing
D．will rot away
2．The smile of the Mona Lisa can only be seen________.
A．by indirect vision B．at a distance
C．by direct vision D．in shadows
3．Which of the following is TRUE about Mona Lisa?
A．It was once taken away and hidden up by German forces.
B．Its painter himself loved it greatly and always kept it in a shade.
C．Mona Lisa stops smiling when you look at her wanting to see her smiles.
D．King Francis Ⅰ bought it and then returned it to Italy.
4．It may add to the difficulty in repairing the painting that________.
A．experts haven't noticed changes in its shape as visitors do
B．it is likely to be stolen again when it's under repair
C．it is uncertain which country, Italy or France, should take charge
D．experts aren't sure about the materials and the chemical state of its oil paint
5．From the last paragraph，we can infer that________.
A．many interesting stories have been written about the Mona Lisa
B．people are interested in the stories about the Mona Lisa
C．some mysteries still remain to be solved about the Mona Lisa
D．many more stories will be told about the Mona
Lisa
B
When I started teaching in school，I was sure I would change the world and touch children who needed love.
Although most of my students seemed to respond pretty well to my teaching，there was a small group of teenage girls who became more and more hostile(敌对的) toward me.
One day a fight happened in my classroom.Attempting to end it，I stepped in to face one of these hostile young women，who started hitting me in the face.Two boys jumped up to control the girl，but the damage was done.
While the girl was suspended(暂时停学) for a few days，I was determined that she would not return
to my classroom.But I also prayed.I wanted to see all the students right there in my daily work at school.
On the top of my daily lesson-plan book，I wrote this statement，“To see all the children in my classroom as always beautiful.”It was the first thing I saw each day when I started teaching.With this view I could expect healing in my heart of any anger toward the girl.
After her suspension，she returned to my classroom.The student's young mother was trying to raise six children while her husband was away in the war overseas.The mother and I agreed to work together to help her eldest daughter.
There were no more incidents of anger the rest of the year.In fact，in the seven years I remained at that school，I taught all six of this family's children.When the youngest was in my class，the mother told me，“Our family loves you.Every year one of my kids says，‘I hope I' m in her classroom！’”
The standard of seeing each of my students as perfect was the best teaching tool I had，which led to success in the classroom.
6．At the beginning of teaching，the author ________.
A．was full of confidence in herself

Ⅰ.1.previewing 2.terrified 3.furnished 4.brochures
5．numerous 6.astronomy 7.catalogue 8.hooked
9．frying 10.psychology
Ⅱ.1.C 句意：学期开始的时候，老师让学生们提前了解要学习的内容。review回顾，复习，view风景，意见，revision修正，复习，都不符合题意，故选C。
2．D 空格后面的宾语是名词，所以用decided on。句意：你结婚的日子选好了吗？
3．C 答句句意：噢，我本应该去参加昨天迈克的生日聚会的，但我忘了。完整的答语为Well，I should have come to Mike's birthday party yesterday but I forgot it.助动词have不省略。
4．B 题干中he was used to是定语从句修饰主语the country life，所以空格处应为主句的谓语，只有B项正确。
5．A 考查动词短语辨析。apply to 适合。句意：他的诉讼暂时难以判决，因为所有现存的法律没有适用于它的。故选A。
6．A course意为“课程”。句意：他已经报名参加了一门英语课程，我希望他会取得很大进步。故选A。
7．D mean后接不定式和动名词意义不同；mean to do sth.“打算做某事”；mean doing sth.“意味着做某事”，由句意可知，此处须用动名词作宾语。
8．D 句意：我在工作上遇到了问题，真的不知道怎么处理才好。 根据句意，选择D项。
9．B 考查regularly的用法。句意：我的爸爸告诉我要定期把汽车送去检修。此处应用副词，故选B项。
10．A 句意：除了一个立在墙角的书架外，整个房间是空着的。分析句子结构知，主句是“The room is empty.”，except for后接名词、代词或动名词形式，它的后面不可能是一个句子，因此后一个空不可能填谓语动词，所以排除选项C、D；再根据a bookshelf与stand构成逻辑上的主谓关系，且stand这一动作正在发生着，故选项A符合句意。选项B是不定式，表示动作尚未发生，不符合句意。
11．A 句意：有少数人被牵涉其中，可能才20人。as few as常用来强调数量出乎意料地少。根据语境可知A项正确。
12．B 由主句时态看出，从句应表将来，所以C项不对；又因此处不表示已完成的动作，所以A项不对。条件句中不用将来时态，故D项错误。
13．A 句意：这所学校并不是我真正想去读的学校，但我认为我得充分利用它。make the best of充分利用，符合句意。get away from逃脱；keep an eye on监视；catch up with赶上。
14．B to choose from作定语，修饰five pairs，并且与之构成逻辑上的动宾关系。
15．B offer主动提供，furnish装饰，符合句意。supply(大批量)供应；provide提供。
Ⅲ.1.B 推理判断题。根据下文Mona Lisa的历史可推出，这里指的是随着时间的推移，Mona Lisa遭到一些损坏，关键句“...is getting worse by the year...”，因此B项为正确答案。
2．A 细节理解题。关键句“It's because direct vision is excellent at picking up details，but less suited to look at shadows.”因此Mona Lisa的微笑只能indirect vision才能看见。
3．C 细节理解题。关键句“It's very interesting that when you're not looking at her，she seems to be smiling，and then you look at her and she stops.”。
4．D 细节理解题。关键句“Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current chemical state.”这件事将增加他们修复这幅画的困难。
5．C 推理判断题。关键句“...the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.”，这表明Mona Lisa这幅名画还有很多事情有待我们去探索、发现、解决。

6．A 细节理解题。结合第一段可知，作者认为自己可以改变世界，可以感动学生，可见作者对自己充满了信心，故选A项。

Ⅳ.阅读理解
Although I started learning English during my college years，when I entered the States，I only understood two English words “Yes” and “No”．We learned many grammar rules but we could not make the language connections to the real English world.Language frustration worries almost all first generation immigrants.For example，I got a letter from a Chinese-American who has lived in the States for a long time and has a good IT job saying “My 11-year-old girl writes quite well，but as her parents，we could not even read her article.”In addition，my Chinese American professor friend has difficulty reading a novel.Improving our English skills has become a long journey for all of us.Honestly，if I have a chance，I really want to reach out to everyone in the world who has had a similar experience：learning a second language in adulthood.I wish I could encourage them to speak out about the culture shock，frustration they felt about the differences between West and East.
I have mainly focused on my English writing since 2008 after I found “Literacy Volunteers”，an organization that specially focuses on helping immigrants improve their English.I decided to challenge myself，writing a story like an American.I saw many wonderful Americans there.As soon as I met my teacher Alice，I asked her to be my private language tutor and have taken Tims English class.Every week Alice and I have worked on my English essays sentence by sentence.
To observe the culture differences between West and East，occasionally，I posted a few of my English essays online.I mentioned previously about American culture; when people read the same article or even face the same situation，American and Chinese act very differently.In my viewpoint，these differences make America the strongest country in the world.I know you have the right to express your own opinions，but accusing others without proof is not acceptable.
1．The purpose of the passage is________.
A．to show how hard a Chinese-American lives in America
B．to share her experience of improving her English
C．to imply grammar rules are not important
D．to warn Chinese-Americans of English
2．The underlined word “frustration” in the first paragraph means________.
A．failure and setbacks
B．words and problems
C．understanding and progress
D．slang and idioms
3．If the author had a good master of English，________.
A．she would open a school for Chinese-Americans
B．she would like to hear the differences spoken out
C．she could lend a hand to the children for learning
D．she might earn some money by giving advice
4．In the passage，“Literacy Volunteers” is________.
A．only intended to help the Chinese-Americans
B．an organization which is set up to make a profit
C．of great use to people like the author
D．a school showing how to enjoy literature
5．From the last paragraph we can learn that ________.
A．Americans and Chinese are of the same idea about something
B．culture shock only exists between Chinese and Americans
C．accusing others freely can be acceptable in America
D．culture differences have great influence on the people
课时作业(十一)
Ⅰ.1.surprisingly 2.aimless 3.unbeatable 4.heels 5.related 6.universes 7.associate 8.range 9.involved 10.refer
Ⅱ.1.C 句意：这家餐馆变得出名是由于它做的各种各样的食物满足所有人的口味。a wide range of意为“各种各样的”，符合题意。
2．A 句意：正如报道所说，许多人死于那次地震中。As引导的非限制性定语从句，指代后面句子的内容。
3．D be tied with被……捆绑；be associated with与……有关；be bound up with与……密切相关；be involved in牵涉……，忙于……。
4．D “be involved in doing sth.”热衷于做某事。

8．C when it comes to sth.意为“当提到……”。
9．B 考查非谓语动词。根据固定结构somebody seems/seemed to do/to have done等同于It seems/seemed that somebody did/does/has done，本句主体时态用一般过去时，说明事情已经发生，所以用不定式的完成式。
10．C 考查虚拟语气。本题关键是要抓住“demand”，它在表示“坚持，命令，要求，建议”的名词性从句时，从句要用somebody should do，should可以省略。
11．B 考查倒装。当so...that结构中，so位于句首时，句子用倒装语序，即so＋adj./adv.＋助动词＋主语＋that从句。
12．B 由“his temper and his health”可以排除D项，由后面的never表否定，可知选either，never...either是全部否定，相当于neither。
13．B 句意：公众缺少环保的习惯被认为是全球气候变化的主要原因。result结果；cause原因，起因；warning提醒，警告；reflection反射，反映。
14．D various作定语修饰things，故选D。
15．D link连接，联系；relate联系；connect连接；combine结合，联系，指把两个或两个以上不同的东西结合起来。本题指把养育孩子和工作结合起来，因此D项正确。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】 在美国，所有的孩子都要接受教育，但不少父母选择让孩子在家接受教育。的确，在家接受教育有很多优势，但并不是所有家庭的孩子都适合在家接受教育。
1．B 根据下文Such children are known__2__“homeschoolers”．可知有一部分家长不愿将孩子送去学校，故选B。
2．C 固定搭配be known as被称为。
3．A 由文章内容可知，一些家长宁愿在家教育孩子，因为(because)他们不相信学校教的宗教价值观是正确的。
4．D 正确的宗教价值观(values)，符合语境。
5．A 还有一些家长相信他们可以为孩子提供更好的教育体验(experience)。
6．B actually事实上，符合语境。sadly伤心地；unbelievably难以置信地；happily高兴地，均不符合语境。
7．D 第一段最后一句意为研究结果显示在家接受教育的孩子在阅读和数学方面常高出平均水平(average)。
8．B 句意：他说(says)他的孩子与在学校的孩子所学的东西大不相同。故选B。
9．A 在家学习通常是由孩子的兴趣(interests)和提问开始的。

11．B snow removal equipment除雪设备，符合语境。
12．C watch the stars固定搭配。

17．C be uncomfortable doing sth.做某事感到不自在。此处是说在家学习的孩子成人后与其他人在一块时可能会觉得不自在。
18．A 最后一段第二句意为批评家还认为大多数家长并不适合(fit)教育孩子，故A项正确。
19．B 句意为大多数家长没有时间也没有意愿(desire)要在家教育孩子。
20．D 所以学校将继续成为大多数孩子接受正规教育的地方(where)。此处where引导一个表语从句，且在从句中作地点状语。
Ⅳ.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者虽然在大学期间学了几年英语，但由于没有注重口语，以至于到了美国发现只能听懂“Yes”和“No”。类似的情况还发生在很多移民到美国的中国人身上。
1．B 主旨大意题。作者在文中简述了初到美国时自己的英语水平以及她如何提高自己的英语水平，故B符合题意。
2．A 词义猜测题。根据该词前面的句子可知，作者初到美国在语言方面有障碍，这类问题发生在很多移民身上，由此推断他们在语言方面受到了挫折，故选A。
3．B 细节理解题。在第一段的尾句，作者用了I wish I could...的虚拟语气结构，表明如果有能力，她愿意……故B与该句意义相符。
4．C 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的that specially focuses on helping immigrants improve their English可知，该组织是为了帮助移民提高英语水平，因为作者是移民，故C正确。
5．D 推理判断题。在尾段中，作者讲述了中美文化的差异，正是这种差异使美国成为一个强国，由此推断对国民有着重大的影响，故选D。误解分析：文化差异不仅仅只影响中美的国民，故排出B；根据最后一段的内容，排除A项；作者讲到没有证据的指控他人是不可接受的，故排除C项。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
My ten-year-old daughter Emma got home yesterday and spoke of a boy called Jake in her class.Being quite overweight，Jake is the butt(笑柄)of many jokes and is treated very badly by other kids.Jake gives the impression that he's not a nice guy，mostly because he's constantly picked on(捉弄)．
For several nights this week Emma came home upset about the fact that Jake gets picked on so much.She also mentioned that Jake had no school supplies as his family could not afford them.He was constantly asking to borrow paper，which just gives kids even more reason to pick on him.
One night Emma was extremely upset about this situation.We sat together that evening and discussed it in great detail.I suggested Emma talk to Jake and found out what supplies he needed.
The next day Emma talked to Jake and came to realize that Jake had a heart of gold，but rarely was able to show it because he was always on the defensive (防守的)．Emma asked Jake to make a list of the school supplies he needed.Jake put down 3 ring binders(活页夹)，paper，pens，pencils and a pencil sharpener.Emma told him she would help and he was most thankful.
That evening Emma and I went to the store and bought everything for Jake！When we got home，we put all the supplies into a brand new grey back pack—because Jake did not have a back pack either.
The next day，I brought the bag to the school principal and asked him to give the bag to Jake discreetly (谨慎地) so that he did not have to feel embarrassed.
That night Emma got home with smiles on her face.The principal had called Jake to his office and gave him the bag.As Jake walked into the classroom，he looked at Emma and later thanked her very much for all the stuff.He loved it all!
Emma said it was so nice to see him take out his new pencil box and to start arranging his pencils and pens.He seemed very happy.
1．What do we know about Jake from Paragraph 1?
A．He is tall，strong and easy-going.
B．He doesn't like to talk to his friends.
C．He is always laughed at by his classmates.
D．He is fond of playing tricks on his classmates.
2．How did Emma feel about Jake's situation?
A．Anxious. B．Concerned.
C．Supportive. D．Neutral.
3．Why did Emma talk to Jake the next day?
A．She meant to offer him some advice.
B．She hoped to know more about him.
C．She expected to make friends with him.
D．She wanted to find out what he needed.
4．Why did the author give the back pack to the principal?
A．To avoid Jake feeling embarrassed.
B．To inform that they did a good deed.
C．To let him know how poor Jake was.
D．To ask him to show concern about Jake.
5．What is the text mainly about?
A．A mother's love.
B．An act of kindness.
C．Emma's school life.
D．Jake's poor situation at school.
Ⅳ.任务型阅读
So long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning，they will continue to teach what children can do for themselves.Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them.It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading.Douglas insists that “reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible”．
Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes.They differ in kind and fun_ction.The fun_ction of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to plan the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read.Teaching is also public activity：It can be seen and observed.
Learning to read involves what each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language.Almost all of it is private，for learning is an occupation of the mind，and the process is not open to public scrutiny.
If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable，then what can be done through teaching( teaching helps the child in the searching for knowledge)？Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions.“Make learning to read easy，which means making reading a meaningful，enjoyable and frequent experience for children.”
When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are，and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately，much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is removed.Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading.

10．D 句意：她所有的精力都集中在孩子身上，看起来很少有时间顾及其他。focus...on...集中……于……，符合句意。guide 指导，指引；aim瞄准(与at连用)；direct指挥，指导，皆与句意不符。
11．C 句意：虽然通常我和我叔叔相处得很好，但他有时说话尖酸刻薄。sharp指“讽刺，挖苦”。
12．B 此处的关键是we can imagine作way的定语，且关系词在定语从句中作imagine的宾语，所以后面应用to do sth.或of doing sth.作way的另一定语，the only way to do sth.做某事的唯一方法/办法。句意：那是我们能够想出的减少学生宿舍过度用水的唯一方法。
13．C A项“预先，提前”；B项“总计”；C项“此外，另外”；D项“简言之”。根据句意，后句应是对前句的补充说明，故选C。
14．B 句意：把这些花带进一个温暖的房间，它们很快就会开放。这是一个“祈使句＋and＋简单陈述句”句型。
15．A list可泛指任何“单子”；menu专指餐馆里的“菜单”，在计算机用语中被引申为“菜单”；program是“节目”，在计算机用语中指“程序”，根据句意，list 在此为名词，on the list为“在名单上”。
