My first day of sch ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ool was very interesting and couldn't be easily forgotten. I hurried to my science class in the morning and found a seat in the back. I waited there for 15 minutes before the bell rang. The science teacher told us about some class rules. No one talked to me nor did I talk to anyone else. I was one of those very shy girls. After the science class, I had an English class. I thought it would be boring but it turned out to be very funny. When the classes of the morning ended I went to lunch. I sat outside the dining room with no one to talk to and no food because I was too nervous to join the lunch line. I kept looking around hoping to see someone I knew but I never saw anyone.21cnjy.com
Lunch ended and I went ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to have my art class. I was the first one there and not even my teacher was there yet. So I sat at my desk and started drawing some pictures. I didn't notice the rest of the class walking in or the girl that was standing behind me till I was surprised by the voice, “So what are you drawing？” It was a girl who had really long hair. She ended up being my best friend and one of the kindest and liveliest girls I know.
In the next class m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eeting, the teacher asked us to talk about the past holiday. I was glad to make some new friends in the class. The first day of high school was hard for me but I got through it.21·世纪*教育网

The Smart Way to Set Goals
Next time you hea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r yourself wishing for something better in your life, remember the word “SMART”. When you're determined to take action, take the following into consideration.
S IS FOR SPECIFIC. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) You'd better make your goals detailed and exact. __11__ If you want to climb Kota Kinabalu in Sabah, Malaysia, start your research, set a date and train yourself for climbing.www-2-1-cnjy-com
M IS FOR MEASU ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )RABLE. Don't aim to “become healthy” or “less stressed”. __12__ For example, aim to go to the gym for an hour three times a week, to visit your grandma once a week, or to have no more than 200 grams of chocolate a week.
A IS FOR ACH ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )IEVABLE. If you've never exercised in your life, don't aim to compete in the 2016 Olympics. Rather, get walking with a specific goal of how many steps to take a day. __13__
R IS FOR RELEVANT (相 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )关的). __14__ A few weeks later, the goals fail to inspire. Try to avoid making the same mistake — rather, choose goals that really interest you.
T IS FOR TIME CONS ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )CIOUS (有时间意识的). Finally, be very clear in your mind about how much time you are giving yourself to achieve the goal. __15__ You'll also know whether you need to work harder to achieve it before the time you have fixed.
A. For example ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), set a goal like “I want to lose five kilograms” instead of “I want to lose weight”．
B. Sometimes losing weight is not good for your health.
C. To get excellent grades, be sure to take detailed steps for it.
D. That way, you know when you've succeeded or failed.
E. Many of us choose goals that seem right, but are in fact wrong.
F. No need to aim for the stars — baby steps are good too!
G. Instead, set a goal ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that can be measured while having an improved eating, exercise or lifestyle plan.
答案 11.A 12.G 13.F 14.E 15.D

33．D 根据上下文可知，此处表示因果关系，又其后所接的是名词，故用because of。

(时间：90分钟 满分：110分)
第一部分 阅读理解(共两节；满分30分)
第一节 (共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
Noah Webster was bor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n on October 16, 1758, in the West Division of Hartford. Noah's was an ordinary colonial family. At that time, few people went to college, but Noah loved to learn so his parents let him go to Yale, Connecticut's only college. He left for New Haven in 1774, when he was 16. Noah's years at Yale were the years of the Revolutionary War.
Noah did not like Ame ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rican schools. Sometimes 70 children of all ages were crammed into one room schoolhouses with no desks, poor books, and untrained teachers. Their books came from England. Noah thought that Americans should learn from American books, so in 1783, Noah wrote his own textbook: A Grammatical Institute of the English Language. Most people called it the “Bluebacked Speller” because of its blue cover.
For 100 year ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s, Noah's book taught children how to read, spell, and pronounce words. It was the most popular American book of its time. Ben Franklin used Noah's book to teach his granddaughter to read.
When Noah wa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s 43, he started writing the first American dictionary. He did this because Americans in different parts of the country spelled, pronounced and used words differently. He thought that all Americans should speak the same way. He also thought that Americans should not speak and spell just like the English. Noah used American spellings like “color” instead of the English “colour”， “music” instead of “musick”， “check” instead of “cheque” and “center” instead of “centre”. He also added American words that weren't in English dictionaries like “skunk” and “squash”. It took him over 27 years to write his book. When finished in 1828, Noah's dictionary had 70 000 words in it.21·世纪*教育网
Noah did many things ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )in his life. He worked for copyright laws, wrote textbooks, Americanized (美国化) the English language, and edited (编辑) magazines. When Noah Webster died in 1843 he was considered an American hero.

A. He studied in Yale during the Revolutionary War.
B. Ben Franklin used Noah's dictionary to teach his grandchild.
C. Noah started to write the first American dictionary in 1783.

When my daughte ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r Sara was in the fifth grade, she came to me with a problem. “Marcy hates me！” she cried. “Because Kathy is my friend, too. She wants me to be her friend and nobody else's. You talk to Marcy. You tell her that I want to be her friend, but I can have other friends, too！”
Oh! I looked at ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )her for a few moments, wondering how I got into this mess (困境), when suddenly an idea came to me.
Picking up two baske ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts from the living room, I explained, “When everyone is born, he or she has a little basket. This little one here is yours. The big one is mine. As you grow, so does the basket. You can see your little basket is inside mine because when you were born, there were too many things you couldn't do for yourself. I did everything you couldn't do on your own.”
She nodded.
“Well, as you grew ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) older and began to do some things on your own, I began placing (放置) a few more things in your basket. When you learned to tie your shoes, that went in your basket.”
She said softly, “I can tie my own shoes.”
“Right. As you ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) grow older, there will be more and more things you must do on your own.” As I spoke, I gradually took her basket out of mine and handed it to her. “You will finally carry your own basket with things only you can do.”
She looked up at ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )me and said, “I understand. There are some things that I have to do for myself because they are in my basket.”

C. Her mother was too hard on her.

Before you leave ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) for the United Arab Emirates you'd better make sure you aren't visiting during Ramadan (斋月). During that time you aren't allowed to eat or drink in public. Tourists have been fined up to $275 for drinking in public.
Lovers spend s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o much time kissing each other goodbye at train stations that trains often start late. This law — no kissing your lover goodbye at train stations — is rather old, and isn't in use today in France.
In Thailand it ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )'s against the law to drive a car or motorcycle without a shirt on, no matter how hot it is. Punishments are different in different areas and can include warnings and tickets costing about $10. No joke — the local police will stop you.
Studies in Denma ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rk have shown that cars with their headlights on are more noticeable by other drivers than those with their headlights off. Drivers there are required to leave their headlights on even during the day, or they may face a fine up to $100.

10．What do we know about the strange law in Canada

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Mr. Smith used to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) be in prison for three years, which may make you think he is not a good man. But as __36__ matter of fact, he is kind hearted as well as honest. The reason __37__ he was put into prison was not that he himself broke the law, but that his six year old son blew up the bridge near his home, imitating(模仿) what he had seen on TV. Although this little boy did break the law, he was __38__ young to be put in prison. According to the local law, the boy's parents could not escape __39__ (punish).
As a result, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Mr. Smith received the punishment. He was arrested(逮捕) and __40__ (final) taken to the police station. Most of the people in the town showed pity on him, but it was __41__ (use). After all, law is law. Everybody is to obey __42__. As the proverb (谚语) goes “when it rains, it pours”(祸不单行), Mrs. Smith was __43__ of work before long. She had to move to a southern state, __44__ she was born and grew up. Misfortunes(不幸) tell us what fortune is. __45__ the Smiths have experienced does teach us a good lesson.
答案与解析
36．a as a matter a fact“事实上”。
37．why/ for wh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ich 先行词是the reason，空格后面的从句中缺少原因状语，故填why/ for which引导定语从句。
38．too 根据固定句式too... to...“太……而不能”，可知该空填too。
39．punishment/ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) being punished 根据escape doing sth.“逃避做某事”用法，可知该空填名词或动名词作宾语。punish与其逻辑主语his parents为被动关系，故填being punished，又可填名词punishment。
40．finally 所填词在句中作状语，应填副词形式finally“最后”。
41．useless useless“没用的”。句意：人们都同情他，但是没用。
42．it it指代前面的law。
43．out out of work“失业”。
44．where 先行词是state，空格后面的从句中缺少地点状语，故用关系副词where引导定语从句。
45．What what“所……的事情”，引导主语从句且在从句中作宾语。

The winter holiday i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s coming. Our class have had a discussion about what to do during the holiday.2-1-c-n-j-y
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
范文
The winter hol ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )iday is coming. Our class have had a discussion about what to do during the holiday. Some are in favor of staying at home. After a tiring term, they believe it a convenient and comfortable way to relax. Besides, it's traditional for them to get together with friends and relatives during the Spring Festival. But they will lose the chance of getting experience of the outside world. Others prefer to go out for traveling. They think meeting different people will increase their knowledge and broaden their horizons. However, it will surely take a lot of money and the trips may cause some inconvenience as well. 2·1·c·n·j·y
In my opinio ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n, it would be better to stay at home, for I can do whatever I like and help my parents with the housework.

My mother believed ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) you are what you eat. A good diet is important for good health. She would always give us healthy food. She liked serving us meat and potatoes for dinner. The meat and potatoes can also mean the most important part of something. It describes someone who likes simple things.
People always said ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) my father was the salt of the earth, because he would never pour salt on a wound(伤口), or make someone feel worse about something that was already a bad experience. However, sometimes he told us a story that seemed bigger than life. So we had to take it with a grain(粒) of salt. That is, we could not believe everthing he told us.www-2-1-cnjy-com
My manager at ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) work does not always know what is going on in our office. Yet she is right about one thing: there is no such thing as a free lunch. Something may appear to be free, but there may be a hidden cost. When we fail to see problems at work, the manager tells us to wake up and smell the coffee. We need to pay more attention and fix the problem. I once made a big mistake at the office and felt silly. I had egg on my face.
Over the weeked, my ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) friend invited me to watch a football game on television. But I do not like football. It is not my cup of tea.

I have recen ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tly completed my college degree. The last project was called “Smile”. The class was asked to go out to smile at three people and document their reactions.

My husband, youngest s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on and I went out to McDonald. We were standing in line when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back away.

C
When I was a child, I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a small farm and it was very difficult for us to know what was happening outside the small farm, especially in the winter when we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that city life has its own problems, too.
One big disadvantage ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basic needs like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from a disease that makes breathing very difficult and the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside as I like, even in the summer. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.21*cnjy*com
Of course there are ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever you taste in culture or entertainment. Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety (多样性) of goods is very surprising—and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.
Is life better ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) then, in the city Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.
语篇解读 本文属于叙议结合的文章。讲述了作者儿时对城市生活的向往，及长大后对城市和乡村不同生活方式的看法。

A. The writer is very old now.
B. The writer is in good health.
C. The write prefers driving a car.
D. The writer lives in the city now.
答案与解析 D 推理判断 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )题。根据文章最后一句“ I certainly hope to move back there soon. ”句中的back there指的是上文的back in the countryside。
10．How is the passage mainly developed
A. By questioning. B. By comparing.
C. By listing examples. D. By giving explanations.
答案与解析 B 本文作者以对比的方式表达自 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )己的观点。首先是对比城市生活的缺点和优点(disadvantage and advantage)；然后把农村生活的宁静(the peace of the countryside)与城市作比较，表达出作者回归农村的愿望。

I had a lot of tea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )chers that I loved. However, the teacher that I remember most was Mrs. Green from Marianna, Florida. She was my 5th grade teacher. Since I was a new student, not only in her class, but at the school, she made my time there much more pleasant. I immediately began to like her. She was really funny and I knew that she liked me. She made learning fun. I remember one day for Christmas holidays, she, taught us how to make ornaments (装饰物) from eggs. My parents still have some of the ornaments I made.
She made me leader ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )for many group projects and that made me feel special. I think that would make any child feel special, especially when a child is in a new place with no friends. She made me want to be like that. Not to pick a “favorite” student, but to make every student feel that they are special. That year, I received the Presidential Academic Award (美国总统学术奖). I was really proud and so were my parents.
Looking back at it, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )I think the reason why I did so well was that I felt important. Students do better when they feel like they are important or loved. Mrs. Green always gets to know her students and forms personal relationships with them, which I will try to do some day. I just hope that there will be a student who finds me to be their favorite teacher as I found her to be mine.

Dear Miss Chen，
I'm having some troubl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e with my new school life. I have just come to study in a senior middle school. I'm a shy boy and I'm not good at communicating with others, so I often feel lonely. Besides, I don't do well in English, especially spoken English. As a result, I dare not speak English in class. However, most of my classmates can speak English quite fluently. I feel upset sometimes. What's more, I can't get along well with my deskmate, who is a very stubborn girl. I do want to change the situation, but I don't know how. Could you tell me what to do next I would be grateful if you could give me some advice.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】

Hopelessly, the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )train asked the little engine to draw it up the grade (坡道) and down on the other side. “I think I can，”puffed (喘气) the little engine, and put itself in front of the great heavy train. As it went on, the little engine kept bravely puffing faster and faster, “I think I can. I think I can. I think I can.”

Having lived ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )in California until 1970，my family has felt a number of earthquakes. We have been fortunate, however, to have suffered no bodily harm or property (财产) damage.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
There is a website t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hat lists all California earthquakes recorded from 1769 to the present. The site lists the dates and times as well as the magnitude (震级) and the exact location of any quake that measured more than 6.0. There are only a few quakes that stand out in my memory and, luckily，none is shown in the website. So, my personal experience with earthquakes might be considered insignificant.
There are three e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )arthquakes that are difficult to forget. The first one was in 1955 and our oldest daughter was walking with me in our backyard in Redwood City in California. As the shaking became stronger I held her to me with one arm as I held on to one of our fruit trees with the other. All three of us (my daughter, I and the tree) shook for two or three minutes that to us felt like hours.
The second one was in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )1963. Our entire family was visiting Disneyland in Southern California. The earth started to shake just as we were beginning to walk from our hotel toward the_famous_landmark.
My third exp ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )erience with an earthquake was a lonely one in California. It was in my sixties and I was alone in an old church. As the building started to shake, I quickly headed for the door to go outside. I remember I said a little prayer — something like, “Help me get out of here in time, Dear Heavenly Father”. Minutes later, I was safe outside.
语篇解读 作者回忆了自己经历的三次地震。
5．The earthquakes the author has experienced ________.
A. all caused bodily harm
B. are all recorded in a website
C. all measured more than 6.0
D. all happened in California
答案与解析 D 细节理解题。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )根据第三段的“The first one was in 1955 ... in California.”和第四段第二句以及第五段的“My third experience with an earthquake was a lonely one in California.”可知答案。
6．What does the underlined part “the famous landmark” refer to
A. A church.
B. Disneyland.
C. A building destroyed by an earthquake.
D. The place where the author was born.
答案与解析 B 推理判断题。根据“Our entire family was visiting Disneyland”可知答案。

A. It happened in the author's sixties.
B. The author succeeded in getting outside.
C. When it happened, the author was in a church.
D. The author was too afraid to walk when it happened.
答案与解析 D 细节理解题。根据“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )I quickly headed for the door to go outside.”可知作者很快就跑出去了。
C
We were standing ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) at the top of a church tower. My father had brought me to this spot in a small town not far from our home in Rome. I wondered why.
“Look down, Elsa，” ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Father said. I gathered all my courage and looked down. I saw the square in the center of the village. And I saw the criss cross (纵横交错) of streets leading to the square. “See, my dear，” Father said gently. “There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that. If you can't get to the place where you want to go by one road, try another.”21cnjy.com
Now I understood why ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) I was there. Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the awful lunches that were served at school. But she refused because she didn't believe the lunches were as bad as I said.
When I turned to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Father for help, he would not interfere (干涉). Instead, he brought me to this high tower to give me a lesson. By the time we reached home, I had a plan.
At school the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )next day, I secretly poured my lunch soup into a bottle and brought it home. Then I asked our cook to serve it to Mother at dinner. The_plan_worked_perfectly. She swallowed one spoonful and sputtered, “The cook must have gone bad！” Quickly I told what I had done, and Mother stated firmly that she would deal with the matter of lunches at school the next day!
In the following yea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rs I often remembered the lesson Father taught me. I began to work as a fashion designer two years ago. I wouldn't stop working until I tried every possible means to my goal. Father's wise words always remind me that there is more than one way to the square.
语篇解读 生活中，我们难免会遇到一些障碍，当我们无法正面逾越的时候，不妨试着从另一个角度来克服这些障碍。
8．The author's fathe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r took her to the top of a church tower to ________.
A. enjoy the beautiful scenery of the whole town
B. find out how many ways lead to the square
C. inspire her to find out another way to solve her problem
D. help her forget some unpleasant things earlier that day
答案与解析 C 推理判断题。从第二段的最后可以看出，作者的父亲带她去塔顶是为了让她明白要从多个角度思考问题和解决问题。

A. Do something delicious for lunch.
B. Taste her awful lunch.
C. Dismiss the cook.

Dear Disney，
Last weekend, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the four members of my family spent an enjoyable holiday at the Magic Kingdom — Disneyland. And one event made our visit seem truly magical.
We got to the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) front of the line at Space Mountain, only to find out that our little daughter Gloria couldn't take her ice cream on the ride. We were so excited that we all forgot ice cream was not allowed (允许) on the ride.
Gloria cried and w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e all had no idea what to do. Then Murphy, one of the staff (员工) members, came over. She bent down (弯腰), and told Gloria that she would hold the ice cream for her and give it to her when she finished the ride. Gloria said, “Promise？” Then she gave Murphy her ice cream, and she completely enjoyed the ride.
Sure enough, as we w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )alked out the exit, there was Gloria's new friend with “her” ice cream.
Now you and I bot ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )h know what happened, because we know that an ice cream won't last twenty minutes on a summer afternoon in Florida. Murphy knew what time we would get off the ride; she went to the nearest shop and bought a brand new (全新的)ice cream thirty seconds before we walked out the exit. Gloria said, “Thank you，” but I'm sure she thought it was the same ice cream.
We know that some ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )one tried hard to make our visit special. Thanks so much for going above and beyond!
Your fan，
Carmen Rivera

Easter Island，an i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sland in the south Pacific Ocean, belongs to Chile. The island is famous for its stone statues (雕像) along the coastlines.
In 1722, an explo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rer named Jacob Roggeveen visited the island. This happened to be on Easter Sunday, and this gave the island its name: Easter Island. What he discovered there were three types of people, dark skinned, red skinned, and very pale skinned people with red hair. The island had a small population with almost no culture they could remember. They hardly had any contact with the outside world.21世纪教育网版权所有
Most scienti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sts believe that the Polynesians were the first people of Easter Island. Another guess is that the first people came from South America, for the sweet potato, a main diet of the early Easter Island people, was from South America. It shows that there must have been some connection between the two cultures. Erich Daniken, a famous writer, believes that aliens once lived on the island.2-1-c-n-j-y
The most famo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )us sight on Easter Island is the 887 huge stone statues called Moai. Most of the statues are 5.5 to 7 meters tall and very few are shorter than 3 meters. The average (平均的) weight is 14 tons. Some Moai weigh more than 80 tons. Every one of them is made of one single piece of huge stone. Although all the Moai are large with heads and shortened bodies, no two exactly resemble (相像) each other. Besides, since the land had been treeless by the time the Europeans first visited, how the statues were moved is still a mystery.【出处：21教育名师】
It is believed t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hat the statues were used to represent ancestors whom the island people regarded as gods. They were placed as a warning to keep enemies out and watch over other tribes (部落)．【版权所有：21教育】
语篇解读 复活节岛是位于南太平洋的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )一座小岛。究竟是什么原因使原始居民在光秃秃的山坡上，竖立了近900座巨石像呢？这个在荒凉环境里的怪诞成就，让无数数学家、探险家及作家深感迷惑。
5．The island got its name of Easter Island because ________.
A. it was discovered by Jacob Roggeveen
B. it was discovered on Easter Sunday
C. it is on the eastern part of the earth

6．How many opinio ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ns about the first people on the island are mentioned in the passage
A. Two. B. Three.
C. Four. D. Five.
答案与解析 B 细节理解题。由第三段可 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )知，关于复活节岛的首批居民，存在三种不同的说法：很多科学家认为原始居民是波利尼西亚人；另外一种说法是认为原始居民来自南美洲；有位作家认为原始居民是外星人。
7．Which of the following about the statues on Easter Island is TRUE
A. Most of them are less than four meters in height.21教育名师原创作品
B. Their heads and bodies were made separately.
C. They were moved with wood.

I have never ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) understood why so many people visit Rome from late spring to early autumn, when traffic, heat, stressed (有压力的) shopkeepers and waiters make a busy city. Things improve a little in March, April, October and November.
But connoisseurs (内行 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )) know that winter is the best time to go there. In winter, the colors are more vivid(鲜艳的) and the low flying sun turns Rome into a wonderful stage set. There are days in winter when the sky is kind of blue — I've never seen anywhere else. And there are also days when you find that you have beautiful sights all to yourself.
Perhaps the only ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) period you might want to avoid are the two weeks before Christmas. Italians often leave their shopping late, and traffic in the city is often heavy. But this can also be a good time to come if you are more interested in culture than in fashion shops, and if you stay somewhere central so that you can beat the traffic by walking everywhere.
Christmas in Rom ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e is a low key (低调的) family event. One of the nice things is the way the city keeps going: although museums and shops are closed, many bars and restaurants stay open, and public transport continues to run. Wherever you go, shops are comfortingly (舒适地) small scale.
If you're lu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cky with the weather, it's in January and February that Rome is at its best. Late February in particular (特别地) can be attractive. One sometimes forgets what a difference that extra (额外的) hour of daylight makes compared with mid December; there are always a few days of proper sunshine, when you can picnic in Villa Borghese and Pompeii. Remember that you have caught the sun after you go back to the hotel.
语篇解读 本文是作者结合自己对罗马的了解，主要介绍了去罗马旅游的最佳时间、住宿以及天气等等。
8．The author thinks the best time to visit Rome is ________.
A. in late spring B. in middle summer
C. in early autumn D. in middle winter
答案与解析 D 细节理解题。由 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第二段第一句话“... connoisseurs know that winter is the best time to go there.”可知去罗马的最佳时间是冬季。故D项正确。
9．What can we know about the author according to the passage
A. He was born in the city of Rome.
B. He has a good knowledge of Rome.
C. He fell in love with the blue sky of Rome.
D. He often gets caught in traffic jam in Rome.
答案与解析 B 推理判断题。由文章的内容可知，作者对罗马的介绍比较全面和详细，因此可以推出作者对罗马非常了解。故B项正确。
10．The last paragraph mainly talks about ________.
A. some attractions in Rome
B. the weather in Rome
C. different activities in Rome
D. the daylight in Rome
答案与解析 B 段落大意题。最后一段主要讲罗马的天气，在二月，那里天气晴朗，非常适合游客们户外野炊。故B项正确。
