Last night at work,a girl came in and sat at the bar.She asked for a cup of water and a menu and eventually ordered a bacon cheeseburger which costs roughly 12 at my restaurant.After eating for a few minutes,she asked me for a napkin(餐巾)and a pen.I saw her writing on the napkin but didn't think anything of it.When I turned around,she was gone.As I went to clear her plate,I noticed that she had left a 100 bill along with a note that read, "Today marks my 14th day of chemo (化疗) along with my 26th birthday.Life's been good to me so far,and I think I will pass my luck on to someone else.Have a great night!"
I have never been so touched by a stranger in my entire life.About 3 months ago,my own mother was diagnosed with lung cancer,so this hit very close to home.Having just witnessed my mother completed her first 5-week cycle of chemo,I know the pain and exhaustion this young woman is feeling.On top of the chemo,she was selfless enough on her own birthday that she gave a stranger a gift.
This young woman has completely touched my soul and has affected my life in a way that I will never forget.I hope to see her again one day,so I can tell her how much her random act of kindness has touched me and finally changed my life.
Thank you for being such a beautiful person and I pray that you get well.

Technology is everywhere. Almost all of us carry some piece of technology with us every time. It's true to say that technology makes our lives easier. However, scientists are saying that we need to give ourselves a break—otherwise we put ourselves at risk of developing hundreds of health problems. With all this free time, why not put it to good use and do something without technology
To start with, you could learn a new skill. There are hundreds of possibilities: crafts (工艺), cooking, learning a musical instrument or a new sport. Maybe you've always wanted to learn to cook for your family, but haven't had time Perhaps you feel like learning how to knit (编织) so you can have a new sweater for the autumn You could use your free time to learn something new—and perhaps it will lead to an exciting chance in the future.
If you just want to relax, why not go to a beach Take along your favorite book and relax on the sand, or go for a walk along the coastline. If you don't live near a beach, you could go to your local park. Why not take a long a picnic, or try and discover some of the local wildlife
Little things, like challenging yourself to complete a crossword or a Sudoku, are a great place to start. You could even follow the latest fashion: adult coloring books! Coloring is amazing, and it can be a nice way to escape from the pressure of modern life!
Whatever you choose to do with your summer, try something new! You might surprise yourself and find a hidden talent within you; you might make new friends along the way. Next time you find yourself aimlessly switching channels, have a think at what else you could spend your time doing.
8. According to scientists, using technology continuously may ______.

D
The tradition of giving gifts didn't start with the modern holidays we celebrate.Many ancient cultures celebrated holidays with the exchange of gifts.People who love to give gifts often can't wait until it's time for the recipients to open their gifts.If you've ever been given a gift,you know that part of the fun is the curiosity that builds as you wonder what the gift is.
The wish to hide the identity of a gift until just the right moment led people to wrap gifts long,long ago.Historians believed wrapping gifts in paper probably started not long after paper was invented thousands of years ago.
Wrapping paper like what we use today,though,is a much more recent invention.More than100 years ago,gifts were usually wrapped in heavy brown paper.Before that,cloth was often used.The technology to mass-produce wrapping paper didn't come along until the early 1900s.The first American gift wrap company-Hy-Sill Manufacturing Inc.-was founded by Eli Hyman and Morris Silverman in 1903.It wasn't as easy to wrap presents back then as it is today,though,because adhesive tape (胶带) wasn't invented until 1930.
Over the years,wrapping paper has developed into what we see in stores each holiday season.But scientists say that the United States alone produces an extra 5 million tons of waste over the holidays,most of which is from wrapping paper and shopping bags.To cut down on this waste,some people carefully unwrap presents,so that the wrapping paper can be reused.Others have started to use reusable gift bags instead of wrapping paper.
12. What is the interesting part of people giving a gift? ______
A. Hiding their gifts and their feelings.
B. Giving the recipients a surprise.
C. Letting the recipients open gifts at once.
D. Following a century-old tradition.
13. What can we learn from Paragraph 3? ______
A. People didn't know wrapping paper until 1903.
B. Heavy brown paper has been used to wrap gifts for 100 years.
C. Technology made wrapping paper widely available.
D. Adhesive tape was first created by gift wrap companies.
14. What do scientists worry about? ______
A. The future of reusable gift bags.
B. The waste produced by Americans.
C. Wrapping paper's influence on the environment.
D. People's admiration for wrapping paper.
15. What does the text mainly tell us? ______
A. The popularity of wrapping gifts.
B. The start of wrapping gifts in paper.
C. The problems caused by wrapping paper.
D. The story behind wrapping paper.

(历史学家认为,用纸包装礼物可能是在几千年前纸被发明后不久开始的。),第三段第一句Wrapping paper like what we use today,though,is a much more recent invention.(不过,像我们今天使用的包装纸是最近才发明的。)和最后一段第一、二句Over the years,wrapping paper has developed into what we see in stores each holiday season.But scientists say that the United States alone produces an extra 5 million tons of waste over the holidays,most of which is from wrapping paper and shopping bags. (多年来,包装纸已经发展成为我们在每个节日期间在商店里看到的东西。但科学家表示,仅美国在节日期间就会产生额外的500万吨垃圾,其中大部分来自包装纸和购物袋。)可知,本文主要介绍了包装纸的发明、发展以及带来的环境污染等背后的故事。结合选项 A.The popularity of wrapping gifts.包装礼物的流行;B.The start of wrapping gifts in paper.开始用纸包装礼物;C.The problems caused by wrapping paper.由包装纸引起的问题;D.The story behind wrapping paper.包装纸背后的故事。分析可知,D项能准确地概括文章的大意。故选D。
本文是一篇说明文。作者从节日期间每人都会送礼物引入话题,介绍了包装纸的发明和发展以及带来的环境污染等背后的故事。
一、速读全文,了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力,考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。
二、看题干,带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型,客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等。
四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义。
16~20.【答案】E、D、C、A、F
【解析】(1)联系下文题。根据下文So they need you to help them.(所以他们需要你的帮助。)可知,前后为因果关系,所以结合选择E"有时这些小生物无法帮助自己。"可知,因为无法自救,所以需要你的帮助。故选E。
(2)联系下文题。根据下文You can do the simplest things such as feeding animals or taking dogs for a walk.(你可以做一些最简单的事情,比如喂动物或带狗去散步。)可知,选项D"你不需要有任何特殊的技能来帮助动物。"即照应了小标题,当志愿者做一些事情,又照应了空后句,不需要特殊技能,只需做最简单的事情。故选D。
(3)联系上文题。根据上文Don't keep silent.(不要保持沉默。)可知,选项C"让别人知道那个人是如何对待动物的。"即照应了小标题报告虐待动物行为"又承接了空前句"不要保持沉默",让别人知道那人虐待动物的行为。故选C。
(4)标题归纳题。根据下文It is one of the easiest ways to reduce the demand for animal products.While meat tastes delicious,think of how one animal is killed so that you can eat that steak.(这是减少动物产品需求最简单的方法之一。虽然肉尝起来很美味,但想想为了吃到那块牛排,你是如何杀死一只动物的。)可知,为了减少动物产品,我们最好以素食为主。选项A"以植物为主的饮食。"符合语境。故选A。
(5)联系上文题。根据上文Stop buying items that contain animal products(停止购买含有动物产品的商品)可知,F选项"每个人都应该避免任何包括皮革、丝绸或毛皮的东西。"照应标题。故选F。
这是一篇说明文。介绍了四种帮助动物的方法。
七选五阅读是完成性阅读,和完形填空很类似,不同的是一个选词,一个选句子。解题时,要注意上下文语境,充分考虑信息词(选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词),选出最符合语境的句子。
21~35.【答案】D、B、A、C、D、A、B、C、D、A、B、C、D、C、B
【解析】(1)考查形容词及语境理解。A.tired疲倦的;B.rewarding值得的;C.easy容易的;D.challenging富于挑战性的。句意:登顶很有挑战性。根据上文"It is known that Taishan is a tall mountain."及常识可知,攀登泰山是一项具有挑战性的活动。故选D。
(2)考查动词及语境理解。A.refuse拒绝;B.choose选择;C.learn学习;D.pretend假装。句意:全程步行需要3到7个小时,游客可以选择中途乘坐缆车。根据上文"Walking the whole way can take from three to seven hours"及空后"take a cable car halfway"可知,登山有两种方式,游客也可以选择中途乘坐缆车。故选B。

解题方法点拨
(1)品读原文,确定文章线索
每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路,通过精读文章,找到该篇文章的写作线索。如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜(结尾)"。
(2)仔细审题,明确续写要求
一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此类短文续写的具体要求,如词数限制使用几处标有下划线的关键词语。续写段落的首句提示,这样考生可以做到"心中有数"。
(3)回扣原文,揣摩续写思路
根据文章后面的要求,再次快速阅读短文,抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。
(4)拟写草稿,修改错词病句
在确定了思路和内容之后。最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时,注意句子结构的多样性,语言的丰富性,并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用,使上下文连贯。
