Ursa Major is a const ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ellation (星座) in the shape of a big bear, so it is sometimes called the Great Bear. Right above Ursa Major is Ursa Minor, or the Little Bear. Do you see something unusual about these bears Their tails seem to be longer than ordinary (普通的) bears'! The ancient Greeks had a story for how these long tails came into being.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
Zeus was the king of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )all the gods in the heavens. He led a very exciting life, traveling between the earth and the heavens. One day, as Zeus was walking through a wooded area on earth, he came upon young Callisto who was hunting. He thought she was very beautiful. Zeus's wife, Hera, was angry, so she used her powers to turn Callisto into a big bear.
As a bear, Callisto ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )missed her son Arcas very much. And the friends she used to hunt with now hunted her. One day, while young Arcas was hunting, he aimed his arrow (箭) at Callisto, not realizing that the bear was his mother. Luckily, Zeus was passing by at that moment and jumped between Arcas and Callisto. Zeus told Arcas to stop, and then changed him into a little bear. To keep mother and son together and out of harm's way, Zeus threw the two bears into the night sky. They became the constellations Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, or, as we like to call them, the Great Bear and the Little Bear. 21*cnjy*com
How did those ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )bears get long tails According to legend, the powerful Zeus stretched (拉长) their tails as he threw them into the night sky.

Astronomy is the olde ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st science known to man. Thousands of years ago man looked at the stars and wondered about the heavens. But man was limited by what he could see with his eyes alone.www.21-cn-jy.com
The Greeks studi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed astronomy over 2,000 years ago. They could see the size, color, and brightness of stars. They could see their places in the sky. They watched the stars move as the seasons changed. But the Greeks had no tools to help them study the starry heavens.www-2-1-cnjy-com
Each new tool added t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o the files of astronomy; it helped man reach out into space. Until there were telescopes (望远镜), man knew little about the moon. They did not know that the planet called Saturn (土星) has rings around it. Their sight was so limited that they could not see all the planets. In the early 1700s, people thought there were only six planets.
Before the spectrosc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ope (分光镜), man did not know what kind of gases is in the sun or other stars. Without the radio telescope (电望远镜), we did not know that radio noises come from far out in space.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】

4. There are too many ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )incorrect grammatical expressions. Some films have strange names and incorrect grammatical structures. “Ai ni mei shang liang”， which means “I love you without consulting”， is grammatically incorrect and this kind of expression is now becoming popular.

From the fir ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st use of the rocket to carry satellites into space to the setting up of space stations, human beings have been putting great effort into space research. And so far, we have achieved many achievements. But there are still numerous tasks in front of us and we should not stop trying to progress.21*cnjy*com
The international spac ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e station is an important step we should take in space exploration. It is not only helpful but also essential. It provides a proper space environment for many experiments that we have wanted to do for a long time. It is also a base for the observations of the earth and the universe. It could also be an important base for later travel to the moon and Mars. In a word, if we want to explore space more, the first thing we should do is to set up a space station.
As the space stati ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on costs a lot of money, it is hard for one country alone to establish one. The USA seems to be the only country that has the ability to build a space station alone, and it has tried to do so, but not very successful. So it aggregated many other countries to work on it together. Though it is still extremely expensive, it is much cheaper than doing it alone. It is really a job that needs everyone's effort and will benefit everyone.
But even so, the f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )unds needed are still a big problem. As for the USA, it seems that it has too many things to spend its money on. Although it is the richest country in the world, it has much debt every year. It has to make arrangements about its finance, and try to find a balance in all these issues.

Lisa has always ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )been overweight. She wanted to lose weight, not just because she wanted to look more beautiful and healthier, but also because it would make life easier. For example, it was difficult for Lisa to find ready made clothes that would fit. She had to ask a tailor to make clothes that were large enough. In school, she needed a special chair which was bigger and stronger than the other chairs. If she went for a walk, she got tired very quickly. She was also unhappy about the way people treated her sometimes. “People look at me and even make fun of me. That's unfair! It's true that I'm overweight, but I don't think people should treat me differently because I'm big. I can't enjoy having dinner with my friends because I'm afraid of getting fatter.” Her friends and family never made fun of her. They tried to help her instead. They wanted her to be happy and healthy. Sometimes when Lisa was feeling sad, she didn't want to speak to anyone. www.21-cn-jy.com

A
Copernicus (哥白尼) ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )was born in Torun, Poland, on February 19,1473. Little is known about his early life except that his father died when he was 10. An uncle adopted him, his two sisters, and his brother. The uncle saw to it that the two boys received a good education. Copernicus went to the University of Cracow. There he studied such subjects as Latin, mathematics, and astronomy. It was probably at that time that he changed his Polish name, Niklas Koppernigk, to the Latin form of Nicolaus Copernicus. In 1496 Copernicus went to Italy, where he spent the next 10 years studying at various universities.【版权所有：21教育】
In Copernicus' ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )time people still believed that all things — the sun, the stars, and the planets — moved around the earth. It was an old belief that few men had ever questioned. Aristotle had based his theory of astronomy on this belief. Because the Church had long been the center of learning, the theory was also linked to religious beliefs.21教育名师原创作品
In 1506, Copernic ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )us returned to his homeland. A few years later he began to work for the Church. All those years Copernicus carried on his work in astronomy. He had just the most basic equipment and, like other scientists of his day, made observations with only his eyes. Still, using mathematics and logic (逻辑), Copernicus worked out a different theory, which held that the planets went around the sun.21*cnjy*com
Copernicus did not ann ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ounce his ideas. He did not want to make trouble. But he could not hide the scientific truth. So he talked about his theory with his friends, who strongly advised him to have his work published. His great book, On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Bodies, appeared at the very end of his life. Copernicus saw the first copy on the day he died, May 24,1543.
1．Which of the following is TRUE about Copernicus
A. He had two brothers and a sister.
B. He used to be called Niklas Koppernigk.
C. He lost his father soon after he was born.
D. He spent 10 years at the University of Cracow.
答案与解析 B 由第一段倒 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )数第二句“It was probably at that time that he changed his Polish name, Niklas Koppernigk, to the Latin form of Nicolaus Copernicus.”可以得出答案。21·世纪*教育网
2．From the passage we can see that “astronomy” is ________.
A. the life experience of great men
B. the movement of the stars and the planets
C. the scientific study of natural objects in space
D. the theories developed by scientists of old times
答案与解析 C 由第二、三段可知，C项为正确选项。
3．Copernicus developed his theory ________.
A. using various telescopes
B. based on Aristotle's beliefs
C. through observations and reasoning (推理)
D. under the encouragement of his friends
答案与解析 C 由第三段可知，哥白尼是通过观察和推理来发展自己的理论的。
4．Copernicus had his great book published because ________.
A. he didn't agree with Aristotle
B. he could not hide the scientific truth
C. he worked for the Church
D. his friends advised him to do so

OTTAWA — After leavi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng suddenly almost twenty years ago, fans of one Italian car brand (品牌) have been crying, “Oh, Alia Romeo, where are you But with the arrival of the all new Alfa Romeo 4C sports car this year, parent Fiat's sportiest brand is back in business in Canada. The question is: Will anybody care 21cnjy.com
Although it hasn't s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )old a new car in Canada since 1995, the Alfa Romeo brand is one of the oldest in the Car industry. It was founded in 1910. It quickly became well known for making fast, beautiful and expensive sports cars. An Italian state holding company took over in the early 1930s, but since 1986, the Alfa brand has been owned by Fiat.
Unfortunately, Alfa Romeo met fresh competition from Japan. By the mid 1990s, Alfa's lone North American offerings were the Spider roadster (单排座敞篷轿车)．www.21-cn-jy.com
Many Alfa fan ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s will tell you the brand' s success is on the racetracks (赛车场). Dating back to 1913, Alfa Romeo has always had a strong factory presence in racing. But since the late－1980s the Italian automaker has become less involved in car races.2·1·c·n·j·y
While Alfa Romeo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) has shot a few videos of its new mid－engine, two－seat 4C, on a racetrack, there are no plans for the car maker to get back into racing.www-2-1-cnjy-com
One of the biggest att ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ractions for Toronto Alfa Romeo fan Vytas Svedas is the brand's racing past. He currently takes part in many races with his father with a 1966 Alfa Giulia Sprint GT, and he thinks if Alfa wants to be taken seriously as it returns to selling cars in Canada, it has to get back on the racetrack.21·cn·jy·com
Of course, not al ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l Alfa fans need a racetrack to enjoy their cars. David Semel is the president of the Alfa Romeo Club of Ottawa. Semel's current ride is a 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia SS. And, he admits, the main attraction of the Giulia SS is the way the car looks not how fast it can go.
语篇解读 本文是说明文。阿尔法·罗密欧重返加拿大市场，人们对它重返加拿大市场所采取的策略意见不一。
4．What do we know about Alfa Romeo

D．It entered Canada in 1995.
答案与解析 C 细节理解题。由第二段中的It was founded in 1910可知，阿尔法·罗密欧品牌的汽车有一百多年的历史了。21·世纪*教育网
5．Why did Alfa Romeo lose its Canadian market
A．Because the Canadians lost interest in sports cars.
B．Because there were fewer car races held in Canada.
C．Because it faced very strong competition from Japan.
D．Because its quality couldn't meet the local buyers' needs.
答案与解析 C 细节理解题。由文章第 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )三段Unfortunately, Alfa Romeo met fresh competition from Japan. By the mid 1990s, Alfa's lone North American offerings were the Spider roadster可知，阿尔法·罗密欧在加拿大遭遇了日本这一强劲对手，不得不退出了加拿大市场。
6．What’s Vytas Svedas' ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s attitude towards Alfa Romeo's not getting back into racing 2-1-c-n-j-y
A．Understanding. B．Unconcerned.
C．Pleased. D．Disappointed.
答案与解析 D 推理判断题。由倒数 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第二段中的he thinks if Alfa wants to be taken seriously as it returns to selling cars in Canada, it has to get back on the racetrack可知， Vytas Svedas认为阿尔法·罗密欧要想在加拿大市场上重新立足必须重返赛车场，所以对阿尔法·罗密欧不重返车场的决定应该是比较失望的。 21*cnjy*com
7．According to David Semel, Alfa Romeo ________.
A．will return to racing sooner or later
B．has other advantages besides speed
C．is not necessarily the fastest car

Mom's birthday prese ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nt It may be a difficult thing for some people, but for me, it is an easy thing. Mom loved flowers, so every year I sent her flowers. Actually she had a bed of irises (鸢尾花) in the backyard of her small, Indiana farm. They were beautiful. “Take some，” she said, “Dig some up and plant them on the side of your own house.”21*cnjy*com
But in my yard the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y became lacking in energy. A year passed, then two, but not one flower appeared. I cut back all their green leaves. I was tired of seeing them so lonely. Finally, I dug the irises up and threw them away.
About that tim ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e Mom died unexpectedly. My sister and I sold the farm. I never went back to see the irises. I just couldn't stand seeing another family living in our home — Mom's home. Autumn came, then winter. The following spring, as Mom's birthday approached, I struggled with the question of how to remember her. I stared out of the window and saw a few stubborn irises in my side yard sprouting (发芽), — tall, thin but flowerless. Because of seeing them, I decided to order flowers as I always did on Mom's birthday, and send them to my sister. I wished so badly I could still send flowers to Mom. But that was impossible.
On the morning of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Mom's birthday, I was in my car ready to work. Something in the yard caught my eye. The irises! One had bloomed with flowers, big, showy and purple, as lovely as they ever had been on Mom's farm. I smiled and turned my eyes upward. I could no longer send flowers to Mom.

C. She couldn't bear others living in Mom's home.

Breakfast is t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he most important meal of the day. It is also the most neglect (忽视). Common reasons for not caring breakfast include having no time, not feeling hungry, traditional dislike and dieting.21教育网
Breakfast simply mean ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s “break the fast”. Your body spends at least 6 to 12 hours each night in a fasting state. In the morning your body needs energy for the day's work ahead.2-1-c-n-j-y
A good breakfast sho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )uld provide 1/3 of your total calorie needs for the day. On average, we eat 400 less calories for breakfast than for dinner. If you don't feel like having breakfast in the morning, try eating a lighter dinner earlier in the evening or save half of your dinner for breakfast in the morning. 21*cnjy*com
If you still aren' ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t hungry in the morning, start with something small like juice or toast or have a nutritious (有营养的) mid morning snack later when you are hungry.【出处：21教育名师】
So, you say you are o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n a diet. Some people fear that eating breakfast will make them hungrier during the day and they will eat more. It is true that eating breakfast is likely to make you feel hungry throughout the day. That is because your body is working correctly. Although you may feel as if you are eating more all day long, in reality you are probably not.
Not eating breakfas ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t can also cause you overeat, since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel very hungry later. To make matters worse, since your body is in a slow state, it will not be able to burn those extra calories very efficiently (有效地). If you feed your body healthy snacks and meals throughout the day, you are less likely to become hungry and stuff (填饱) yourself as soon as you begin to eat.
Since breakfa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st is the first and most important meal of the day, choosing the right food is important. The best breakfast foods are fruits, juice, lean meat and grain products such as bread, rice, noodles and cereals.
1．What is the m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eaning of the word “fast” in the phrase “break the fast”？
A. Movement. B. Going without food.
C. Quickness. D. Certain kind of food.
答案与解析 B 词义猜测 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )题。由画线词后一句每晚至少6～12小时处于“fasting”状态，由常识可知晚上睡觉不吃饭，故画线词意为“不吃饭”。
2．If you don't wan ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t to have breakfast in the morning, according to the writer's suggestion, you should ________.【版权所有：21教育】
A. see a doctor to have an examination

No budget for your vac ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ation Try home exchanges — swapping houses with strangers. Agree to use each other's cars, and you can save dollars on car rental (租赁费), too.www.21-cn-jy.com
Home exchanges ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) are not new. At least one group, Intervac, has been facilitating such an arrangement since 1053. But trading online is gaining popularity these days, with several sites in operation, including Home Exchanges. Founded in 1992, with some 28,000 listings, this company bills itself as the world's largest home exchange club, reporting that membership has increased by 30% this year.21·世纪*教育网
The annual fee i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s usually less than $100. Members can access thousands of listings for apartments, villas, suburban homes and farms around the world. Initial (最初的) contact is made via e mail, with subsequent communication usually by phone. Before a match is made, potential swappers tend to discuss a lot.www-2-1-cnjy-com
However, the concept ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )may sound risky to some people. What about theft Damage These are reasonable causes for concern, but equally unlikely. As one swapper puts it, “Nobody is going to fly across the ocean or drive 600 miles to come to steal your TV. Besides, at the same time they're staying in your home, you are staying in their home. ”2·1·c·n·j·y
Exchange sites re ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )commend that swappers discuss such matters ahead of time. They may fill out an agreement spelling out who shoulders which responsibilities if a problem arises. It does not matter if the agreement would hold up in court, but it does give the exchangers a little satisfaction.
Generally, the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )biggest complaint among home exchangers has to do with different standards of cleanliness. Swappers are supposed to make sure their home is in order before they depart, but one person's idea of “clean” may be more forgiving than another's. Some owners say if they come back to a less than sparkling kitchen, it may be inconvenient but would not sour them on future exchanges.21cnjy.com
语篇解读 文章论述了假期时人们为了减少开支，相互签订协议交换房子住的事。
5．What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. How to exchange homes.
B. How home exchange is becoming popular.
C. The biggest home exchange agency Intervac.
D. A contrast between Intervac and Home Exchanges.
答案与解析 B 主旨大意题。第二段主要讲述了“交换房子住”这种现象是如何越来越流行的。
6．Which of th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e following is closest in meaning to “bills” in the second paragraph 21世纪教育网版权所有
A. Advertises. B. Dedicates.
C. Replaces. D. Participates.
答案与解析 A 词义猜测题。由下文的a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s the world's largest home exchange club可知bill在此表示“做广告”。dedicate献身；replace替换；participate参加。【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
7．How do home exchangers normally begin their communication
A. By phone.
B. By e mail.
C. Via a matchmaker.
D. Via a face to face meeting.
答案与解析 B 细节理解题。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )由文章第三段第三句Initial contact is made via e mail, with subsequent communication usually by phone.可知。
8．From the passage, we can infer that ________.
A. home exchanges online have been popular for a long time
B. members can access all listings in the home exchange club
C. there is no need to worry about theft in this club21教育名师原创作品

答案与解析
语篇解读 由于作者心情不 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )好，对工作也失去热情，是顾客一句贴心的话语You are going places使作者重新焕发出热情，以积极的心态投入到工作和生活中去。21cnjy.com
1．D 我去上班的时候心情非常不好。feel ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing down是现在分词作伴随状语，意为“闷闷不乐”。根据下句中的to make matters worse和倒数第二段的They __17__ my spirit from being down ...也说明了该题答案。
2．A deal with表示“对付”； ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) help with“帮助做……”； talk with“和……交谈”； meet with“遇到；经受”。www-2-1-cnjy-com
3．B 顾客抱怨他们就座的位置… ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )…。seat是使役动词，表示“使坐下”， be seated“坐下；就座”； sit是不及物动词，应为where they sat。
4．D 诸如此类的小事容易造成我们雇 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )员的“烦恼”。annoy表示“使生气”。因为作者前面提到了顾客的种种抱怨，因此只能导致雇员的烦恼、生气。attract“吸引”； avoid“避免”； adjust“调整”。
5．A 诸如此类的小事容易造成我们“雇员”的烦恼。句中的us和下文的we给出提示。employee表示“受雇者；雇工”。2-1-c-n-j-y
6．C 她们碰巧坐在我存放用过的盘子附 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )近的地方。spot表示“地方；地点”。根据后面的where I keep the dirty __7__ in the boxes，排除B项；不可能把脏盘子放在客人用餐的桌子上，故排除A项； kitchen不会与客人用餐的地方处于同一个位置，故排除D项。www.21-cn-jy.com
7．A the dirty dishes指客人用过的盘子。因为作者是在餐厅打工的学生，所以“端盘子”才能与文章主题相符。 21*cnjy*com
8．C 顾客们的进进出出、服务人员的穿梭走动。该空指服务人员在餐馆的来回走动，穿梭服务。
9．C 虽然餐馆处于一片忙乱的状态，但是这三位妇女在专心地看着我。该空前的crazy给出了暗示。
10．B 她们注视着我为了确保每张桌子是干净的，去迎接接下来的顾客而多么努力地工作。how相当于how hard。【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
11．A 她们吃完饭的时候。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )根据下文的I took their plates back to the kitchen排除C、D两项； complete往往用于表示“完成建筑物、工程、书籍等”；而finish可用于表示“用完；吃完”。【出处：21教育名师】
12．B 她们询问我上哪个年级。通过上下文，可知作者是个打工的学生，故B项符合文意。grade表示“年级”。21教育名师原创作品
13．C 当她们离开的时候，她们走过我 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )身边。as引导时间状语从句时，表示主从句的动作同时发生。由句意排除A、D两项； while引导时间状语从句时，从句中的谓语动词是延续性动词。
14．A 她们从我身边走过时， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )有一个人用自信和温和的语调对我说。由下文的You are going places.(你前途无量；你开始取得成功)可以推测说话者的语气。因为说话人在鼓励作者，所以只有A项符合语境。
15．C 客人说完后就离开了餐馆。由下文可知， they指three elderly ladies，她们是来餐馆用餐的。
16．B 根据文意可知，她们给予了作者自信的“勇气”，作者才得以重新振作起来。
17．B 她们让我振作起来。pick up表 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )示“使恢复精神”。put down“放下；镇压”； take over“接管”； point out“指出”。
18．B 她们给了我继续努力的理由。reason表示某种行为的原因； cause表示某种现象的原因。
19．A 有人曾经告诉我， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )没有学位，我就不能从事电视台的工作。下文的I'm now a co anchor of a student produced television __20__. 暗示出这里的答案。

A
The Adventures of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Tom Sawyer is a literary masterpiece written in 1876 by the famous writer Mark Twain. The story line is simple. The book is like a biography (自传) of a summer in Tom Sawyer's life.21cnjy.com
Tom Sawyer is a sma ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rt but naughty young boy living in the small town on the Mississippi River. He is an orphan and lives with his aunt. He has many clever ideas, but doesn't like school，and always likes to escape the school to fish. Tom has a trusted friend, Huck Finn, who few of the adults approve of. Tom Sawyer and Finn have great adventures on the Mississippi River, pretending to be pirates, attending their own funeral, and witnessing a murder. Tom overcomes fear and appears in court and speaks out the murderer. He and his friends finally discover a lot of treasures and they become millionaires ...www.21-cn-jy.com
Mark Twain's wri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ting is based on his own childhood and his personal experience. What makes this story great is that Tom Sawyer represents everything that is great about childhood. It is a story filled with action, adventure, ingenious ideas, love, and schoolyard politics. The whole story is seemingly a complication of what Twain did or wished to do during his childhood.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
The book is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a little difficult to read at first. Perhaps, it will take you a little while to get used to the 19th century dialect in the book. But on the whole，the book is an enjoyable read for people of all ages. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking forward to feeling young again.

He made millions of dollars by writing. His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain, his pen name.2·1·c·n·j·y
Mark Twain was ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mother's tender care, he managed to survive (幸存). As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all of his friends and neighbours. He didn't like to go to school, and he constantly ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearby Mississippi River. He was nearly drowned (淹死) nine times.21·世纪*教育网
After his fathe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r's death in 1847, Mark Twain began to work for a printer (印刷商), who only provided him with food and clothing. Then, he worked as a printer，a river boat pilot (领航员) and later joined the army. But shortly after that he became a miner (矿工). During this period, he started to write short stories. Afterwards he became a full time writer.
In 1870, Mark Twa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )in got married. In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876, and Huckleberry Finn in 1884, which made him famous, and brought him a great fortune.
Unfortunately, Mark ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Twain got into debts in bad investments (投资) and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts. In 1904, his wife died, and then three of their children passed away.www-2-1-cnjy-com
At the age of 70 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), his hair was completely white. He bought many white suits and neckties (领带). He wore nothing but white from head to foot until his death on April 21,1910.2-1-c-n-j-y

答案与解析
语篇解读 本文叙述了作者与其母亲的一些情况，表明作者与其母亲之间的那种无私的爱。
1．A 从倒数第二段I stand in the kitchen可以看出A项正确，前后呼应。B、C、D三项都找不到对应点。21cnjy.com
2．C a loving s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mile指“充满爱意的微笑”，符合语境。lovely“可爱的”； lively“生动的”； horrible“恐怖的”，都与语境不符。
3．C mix“搅拌”。从invisible这个词可以猜测出作者小时候在搅拌假想的粉末。
4．D 从语境看，作者和她妈妈穿的是花色一样的衣服，故matching最合适。
5．A 作者的衣服是用她妈妈衣服剩下的碎布做成的，material指“原料；布料”。
6．A stand“忍受”。由下文知作者的妈妈不允许她做这做那，作者无法忍受妈妈的这种行为。
7．D stay out指“在外面待着”。作者想与朋友在外玩晚一会儿，可妈妈不允许。
8．A 妈妈是在努力避免我重蹈她当年的覆辙。A项最符合。
9．D A、B、C三项都不符合语境。aches and pains and mistakes是妈妈当年经历过的。21·cn·jy·com
10．D pray“祈祷”。根据语境，作者在为自己的母亲祈祷，希望她能好起来。
11．A through the hard times and the good指“经历生活的风雨”。
12．A connect表示“联系”。我和母亲之间一直以来有根无形的纽带联系着。
13．A spread指癌细胞的“扩散”。
14．A 此处是一个when引导的时间状语从句，表示“当……的时候”。
15．A place表示“放置”。表示当女儿被放在我怀里的时候，我哭了，笑了，祈祷了。
16．D raise“抚养”，最 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )符合语境。bring up“抚养”，support“支持”， change“改变”，文章中看不出作者刚出生的女儿需要改变什么，所以用raise最好。www.21-cn-jy.com
17．D look down into her eyes指“看着她的眼睛”。
18．B 在此指作者的妈妈。整篇文章是讲作者在回忆自己的母亲。作者通过女儿的眼睛想到了自己的母亲。
19．A a warm feeling“一种温暖的感觉”，与语境相符。
20．B 作者看到这一幕熟悉的情景。sce ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ne指“场面；现场”。A为“谚语”，C为“素描”，D为“油漆；绘画”，都不能引申出符合语境的意思。【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】

Ⅱ.阅读理解
In some places, peop ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )le collect honey from wild bees. This is common in many parts of the world, especially South Asia. Honey hunting is a local tradition in southern India but it is not an undemanding job. The bees in southern India can grow up to the size of the smallest adult human finger. And these giant honey bees build their hives (蜂窝) on the sides of mountains!21cnjy.com
It takes many year ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s for a honey hunter to learn to collect honey from these hives. From a young age the honey hunter learns everything about bees. He practices climbing hundreds of meters above the ground. Before the honey season, the honey hunter prepares for many days.
When the day of the h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oney hunt season arrives, the honey hunter goes to the edge of the mountain early in the morning. He climbs down with a rope and lights some dry branches (树枝) on fire. The smoke makes the bees leave the hive. With the bees flying around the honey hunter, he uses a long sharp stick to gently get pieces of the wax (蜜蜡) filled with honey. He then takes them back to the village in a box made of bamboo.
Usually the hunter ta ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )kes some honey and leaves some of the hive on the mountainside. He does not take the part of the hive with the baby bees in it since he does not want to destroy the home of the bees. When the honey hunter returns, the village celebrates!【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
“They have been hunt ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing honey in this way for more than 2,000 years. Honey was and still is an important part of their diet, cooking and medicine，” Simone Gie from the organization Slow Food International, said.2-1-c-n-j-y
1．The underline ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d word “undemanding” in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by “________”． 21*cnjy*com
A. regular B. boring
C. easy D. difficult
答案与解析 C 词义猜测题。由画线词后面两句对密蜂和蜂巢位置的说明可知寻蜜不是件容易的工作。故C项符合题意。【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
2. According to the text, honey hunting ________.
A. has a short history
B. needs careful preparation
C. makes some villages rich
D. is often done by a young man
答案与解析 B 推理判断题。由文章第三段的介绍可知寻蜜者需要精心准备后才能采蜜，故B项符合题意。
3. Which of the following is NOT needed during honey hunting
A. Bamboo. B. Branches.
C. A rope. D. A stick.
答案与解析 A 细节理解题。由文章第三段对采蜜过程的介绍可知采蜜者需要绳子，树枝和棍子可知A项“竹子”是不需要的。
4．Paragraph 3 is mainly about ________.
A. how to protect baby bees
B. the importance of honey
C. the new use for honey
D. how honey is hunted
答案与解析 D 主旨大意题。文章介绍的是寻蜜和采蜜的过程和方法，故D项符合题意。

Sweetest Day is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, the aged, and children who have lost their parents, but also friends, workmates, relatives and neighbors whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.21教育网
Over 60 years ago, wh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )en a Cleveland man noticed that some people, such as children who lost their parents and patients who lay in bed, too often felt forgotten and neglected,_he developed in his mind the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this by giving them small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors, he gave those people small gifts on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Clevelanders began to take part in the celebration, which came to be called “Sweetest Day”. Over time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor, the sick and children who had lost their parents was broadened to include everyone, and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift. Soon the idea spread to other cities all over the USA.2·1·c·n·j·y
Sweetest Day is no ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t based on any single group's religious (宗教的) beliefs or on a family relationship. It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning.

My grandma whom w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e all called Nanny was a solid, first generation, Italian immigrant (移民). She came to this country with her family on a tiny ship during World War Ⅰ when she was only 8 years old. During the trip she survived stormy seas, little food, and an attack by a German U boat. After getting here, her large family worked hard to build a new life in America. They never had much money but were rich in love.
One day, when I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) was about 5 or 6 years old, my parents and brothers went on a trip. It was just me and Nanny in the house for the weekend. Nanny seemed so happy to be taking care of me all by herself. She made me a special breakfast that first morning. However, all I could do was to complain about how the food was not how Mom always made it. Nanny quietly put down the plate and went into the living room. I followed a minute later and saw that she had tears in her eyes. It was the first time I had ever seen my strong and proud grandmother cry and I was the one who had caused it.www.21-cn-jy.com
I walked over to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Nanny, climbed on her lap, and for the first time in my short life I did something else too. I apologized without being told to and asked Nanny to forgive me. She smiled, rubbed my head, and told me I was a good boy even though I didn't feel like one then. www-2-1-cnjy-com
That memory just ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) like my Nanny's love will stay in my heart forever. It is a sign of both strength and wisdom. Asking for forgiveness helps us to learn, to grow, and to love.2-1-c-n-j-y

The group's members a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rgue that the food competitions encourage petitors could develop health problems, they say.
Others, though, can't ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) get enough of the eating contests. They point out that people who enter the matches already know the risks. They also say the events are fun to watch.www.21-cn-jy.com
What do you t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hink Should people take part in competitive eating contests Student reporters Michael Baick and Bella Fletcher express their own opinions.21教育网
Michael Baick
If competitive eati ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng contests were limited, there would be little entertainment for viewers and competitors. Besides, people should be able to choose which activities they take part in. Those who enter competitive eating contests know about the possible consequences. Joshua Glick, a student from Longmeadow, Mass., agrees. “If they want to eat, let them eat，” he says.2·1·c·n·j·y
People who want t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o limit competitive eating say that the contests cause health problems and encourage overeating. But taking part in a single eating competition will not always cause health problems. And eating one very large meal sometimes does not mean that you overeat all the time.
Bella Fletcher
People should not ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) take part in competitive eating contests, because they can be dangerous to competitors and viewers. A person can choke (呛住) by trying to eat food too quickly. And in the contests, people usually eat unhealthy foods, not fruits or vegetables. That sends the message to viewers that it is OK to eat large amounts of unhealthy foods.
It's not fun watching ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )people stuff themselves (狼吞虎咽地吃) with unhealthy foods. Kin Gruenberg, a city worker in Quincy, Mass., agrees. “Food contests are gross. After seeing people race to eat more food than most people eat in a whole day, I feel like eating nothing，” she says.
