At the age of seven I started taking violin lessons. I practiced half an hour every day, went to lessons once a week, and played in a group concert from time to time. Like most kids, I’m not a big fan of practising. If my parents hadn’t been there to make me practice, I probably would have put down my violin and never have picked it up again.
I met Moira when I was 11 at an Irish music party. Moira hosted the party that night, playing the violin, singing and dancing. She made sure that everyone in the room got involved and had a great time. I immediately fell in love with the music she played and the energy that she brought to it. Just a few days after that party, I took my first lesson with Moira, and I continued taking lessons with Moira throughout middle school.
When I started playing the violin with Moira, playing music became something that I loved. She introduced me to so many types of music, from Irish to Old Time, to Cajun music. Moira also taught me to play the guitar. Soon we started performing together and were shocked to discover that people actually wanted to hear us! When I began to play the violin, practicing was something that I did at home in my living room, but under Moira’s influence it quickly became something that I did everywhere. I played on street corners, at festivals, at the beach, at parties, at weddings, and late at night in my friends’ kitchens.
Moira took the music out of the classroom and brought it to life. Her passion was not only for playing music, but also for sharing it. My time with Moira allowed me to grow both musically and personally. I have met so many special people and had so many memorable experiences. Moira has proven to be the most important influence in my musical development, and also my invaluable friend.
4. How did the author feel about violin practice at the beginning
A. Interesting. B. Challenging. C. Inspiring. D. Unexciting.
5. What can we infer from the passage
A. The writer was proud of Moira’s achievements in music.
B. The writer became a popular local violinist.
C. The writer spent all her spare time playing the violin.
D. The writer had more self-confidence in terms of performing.
6. What can we know from the last paragraph
A. Classroom was not a suitable place for Moira to practice any more.
B. Moira helped the writer a lot with her personal life experience.
C. Moira played a significant role in the writer’s musical progress.
D. Moira was very thankful for the writer’s musical support.
7. What would be the best title for the passage
A. My Way to Success B. My Invaluable Friend
C. Middle School Musical D. How I Learned the Violin
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者不是特别喜欢小提琴，但这些在遇到Moira后有了改变。和Moira在一起的时光让作者在音乐和个人方面都有所成长，Moira在音乐和人生上对作者产生了巨大影响。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Like most kids, I’m not a big fan of practising. If my parents hadn’t been there to make me practice, I probably would have put down my violin and never have picked it up again.(和大多数孩子一样，我不太喜欢练习。如果我的父母没有督促我练习，我可能会放下小提琴，再也不会拿起它)”可知，一开始作者不喜欢练习小提琴，觉得很乏味。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“When I began to play the violin, practicing was something that I did at home in my living room, but under Moira’s influence it quickly became something that I did everywhere. I played on street corners, at festivals, at the beach, at parties, at weddings, and late at night in my friends’ kitchens.(我开始拉小提琴时，只在家里演奏，但是在Moira的影响下，我可以在任何地方演奏。我在街角、节日、沙滩、婚礼、在深夜里，在朋友的家里演奏)”可推测，作者一开始只是在家里演奏，在Moira的影响下，可以在任何地方演奏，由此推测作者对小提琴演奏变得更加自信。故选D。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“My time with Moira allowed me to grow both musically and personally.(和Moira在一起的时光让我在音乐和个人方面都有了成长)”和“Moira has proven to be the most important influence in my musical development, and also my invaluable friend.(事实证明，Moira对我的音乐发展产生了最重要的影响，也是我宝贵的朋友)”可知，Moira在作者的音乐生涯中发挥了重要作用。故选C。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合最后一段中“Moira has proven to be the most important influence in my musical development, and also my invaluable friend.(事实证明，Moira对我的音乐发展产生了最重要的影响，也是我宝贵的朋友)”可知，本文主要讲述了Moira对于作者来说是最珍贵的朋友，对作者在音乐和人生上都产生了很大影响。B项“我最珍贵的朋友”为最佳标题，故选B。

Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it also applies to a wide range of consumer products which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary material we are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.
8. What does the underlined word “over-consumption” refer to
A. Using too much packaging.
B. Recycling too much waste.
C. Making more products than necessary.
D. Having more material than is needed.
9. The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show ________.
A. the tendency of cutting household waste
B. the increase of packaging recycling
C. the rapid growth of supermarkets
D. the fact of packaging overuse
10. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4
A. Unpackaged products are of bad quality.
B. Supermarkets care more about packaging.
C. It is improper to judge quality by packaging.
D. Other products are better packaged than food.
11. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. Fighting wastefulness is difficult.
B Needless material is mostly recycled.
C. People like collecting recyclable waste.
D. The author is proud of his consumer culture.
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了过度包装的现状、人们对包装的认识和过度包装的危害，指出虽然有更多人已经开始循环利用，但形势很严峻，要想改变状况是一项艰巨的任务。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段中We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.可知，我们正在以最环保的方式处理__________的后果，但如果我们一开始不带那么多的材料回家，情况会好得多。故推知划线部分意义应为“过度消费”，与后面的“不带那么多的材料”形成对比转折，故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中引用的数字The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK.（从1999年到2005年，包装总量增加了12%。它现在占了英国典型家庭垃圾的三分之一。）可知，作者使用数字的目的是为了让读者清楚地理解过度包装的现实问题，故D项正确。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。第四段讲述了人们对于包装不好的物品的固有认识，即：人们普遍认为包装不好的物品质量肯定差，可以推断出以包装评判产品是不对的，故C项为正确答案。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.可知，我们需要面对我们消费文化中的浪费，但我们还有一座高山要攀登，所以回收利用抗击浪费任务艰巨，故A项为正确答案。
D
Can you survive an unannounced storm Although there is expert broadcasting and we have cell phones, there are still some instances (情况) when the violent weather takes us by surprise.
While most Atlantic hurricanes form off the roust of Africa giving plenty of early warning, sudden Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico hurricanes form and move rapidly in less than a day’s time, endangering everyone and everything in their path.
Oil workers were trapped off the shore (海岸) when sudden storms appeared. Natural scientists have been stuck in coastal areas without storm warning. Ten years ago a Texas National Guard group was trapped on the beach by rain-forced flooding and bad to ride out (经受得住) a major hurricane during a training exercise. There’ve been a few instances when travelers were trapped on an island or in a coastal area and unable to escape in time.
Escaping from the storm-threatens areas is generally a choice for most of us — but not for all. Each year thousands of islanders across the Caribbean face the danger of hurricanes without so much as a public shelter to hide in. Most ride out the storm in their homes.
But there’re a few things yon ran do to prepare yourself for some unexpected emergencies. Being prepared for the unexpected may be your best and only defense. If you’re headed outdoors for a few days or weeks, you should always carry a flashlight with extra batteries, a Beidou device, and a basic medical box. If you’re traveling in your ear, remember you may suffer high winds. You’d better not stay inside to avoid being blown away along with your car. Keeping your head and your courage up is essential (必要的) to survival in any type of danger. Let common sense guide you and always be prepared for the worst.
12. According to the text, most Atlantic hurricanes _______.
A. form in the Caribbean Sea B. develop off the coast of Africa

13. What is the third paragraph mainly about
A. People trapped by sudden storms.
B. The bad situations of oil workers.
C. The Texas National Guard group.

A. We can get through the storm because of the expert broadcasting.
B. Being prepared for the unexpected is likely to be our best and only defense.
C. Escaping from the storm-threatened arras is a choice for all of us in general.
D. We should stay inside the car to avoid being blown away in high winds.
15. What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To give some advice.
B. To encourage traveling
C. To give some warnings.
D. To understand the danger of storms
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何在突如其来的飓风中生存下来。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“While most Atlantic hurricanes form off the roust of Africa giving plenty of early warning, sudden Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico hurricanes form and move rapidly in less than a day’s time, endangering everyone and everything in their path. (虽然大多数大西洋飓风都是在非洲海岸附近形成的，可以提供充足的预警，但突然出现的加勒比海和墨西哥湾飓风在不到一天的时间内形成并迅速移动，危及其路径上的每个人和所有事物)”可知，大多数大西洋飓风都是在非洲海岸附近形成的。故选B。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Oil workers were trapped off the shore (海岸) when sudden storms appeared. Natural scientists have been stuck in coastal areas without storm warning. Ten years ago a Texas National Guard group was trapped on the beach by rain-forced flooding and bad to ride out (经受得住) a major hurricane during a training exercise. There’ve been a few instances when travelers were trapped on an island or in a coastal area and unable to escape in time. (突然出现暴风雨时，石油工人被困在海岸附近。在没有风暴预警的情况下，自然科学家被困在沿海地区。十年前，德克萨斯州国民警卫队的一个小组在一次训练演习中被困在海滩上，遭遇暴雨引发的洪水，不得不安然度过一场大飓风。有几次旅行者被困在岛上或沿海地区，无法及时逃脱)”可知，第三段主要举了一些突然被风暴困住的人们的例子。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Being prepared for the unexpected may be your best and only defense. (为意外做好准备可能是你最好也是唯一的防御)”可知，为意外做好准备可能是我们最好也是唯一的防御。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“But there’re a few things yon ran do to prepare yourself for some unexpected emergencies. (但是你可以做一些事情来为一些意想不到的紧急情况做好准备)”可推知，最后一段的目的是给出一些建议。故选A。

47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Billy was 15 years old then. He grew up in a very poor neighborhood. No one in his family had gone to college before. Actually, few people around him had received higher education. They all struggled to live a good life. Therefore, Billy knew nothing about colleges or scholarships and he never thought he would go to college one day. Although he was a smart boy, he didn’t study hard at school and often got into trouble with other teenagers in his neighborhood.
One day, while Billy was walking on the playground, a boy of his age started making fun of him. Then that boy pushed him hard and Billy fell onto the ground. Billy became so angry that he stood up and beat that boy. So a fight began.
It happened that Billy’s English teacher Mr. Smith was walking nearby. He immediately ran to the boys to stop the fight. Billy was a bit worried because he knew his teacher was very strict with students. He was afraid his teacher would punish him. However, to his astonishment, his teacher didn’t do that.
“Billy, let’s have a talk,” said his teacher.
Billy, not knowing what his teacher wanted to do, was very worried. But he nodded. So they went to a bench nearby and sat down. After they sat down, Mr. Smith began, “Billy, I know you’re a smart boy, but you’re wasting your life now. Why don’t you study hard to go to college so that you can change your life and have a bright future ”
Hearing that, Billy didn’t know what to say. He had never thought about it. Billy was in silence. Mr. Smith continued, “I know you may have never thought about going to college. But everything is possible. When I was at your age, I was a troublemaker just like you and never thought I’d be able to go to college, either. It was all because of the support and encouragement of Mr. Howard, my math teacher in high school.”
注意：
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。
Paragraph 1:
Then, Mr. Smith began to tell Billy his story.

Paragraph 2:
Billy was greatly touched by Mr. Smith’s story.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
Then Mr. Smith began to tell Billy his story. “At that time, I usually skipped classes and every teacher was seemingly used to that except Mr Howard. He arrested me again and again, so finally I yielded in case of meeting his disappointed eyes. And he noticed my change and talked with me about future patiently. It was the first time I had heard somebody who advised me to further my education and I began to study hard to be admitted into a college with the help of scholarship. And finally I made it.”
Paragraph 2:
Billy was greatly touched by Mr.Smith’s story. So he began to listen to the teachers carefully in class and finish his homework by himself. Fortunately, Mr. Smith was willing to help him make up what he missed before and other teachers were all glad to see his change and answer his question with patience. Eventually, with Billy’s effort and his teachers’ support, he was admitted into a famous college and became a doctor.

At the age of seven I started taking violin lessons. I practiced half an hour every day, went to lessons once a week, and played in a group concert from time to time. Like most kids, I’m not a big fan of practising. If my parents hadn’t been there to make me practice, I probably would have put down my violin and never have picked it up again.
I met Moira when I was 11 at an Irish music party. Moira hosted the party that night, playing the violin, singing and dancing. She made sure that everyone in the room got involved and had a great time. I immediately fell in love with the music she played and the energy that she brought to it. Just a few days after that party, I took my first lesson with Moira, and I continued taking lessons with Moira throughout middle school.
When I started playing the violin with Moira, playing music became something that I loved. She introduced me to so many types of music, from Irish to Old Time, to Cajun music. Moira also taught me to play the guitar. Soon we started performing together and were shocked to discover that people actually wanted to hear us! When I began to play the violin, practicing was something that I did at home in my living room, but under Moira’s influence it quickly became something that I did everywhere. I played on street corners, at festivals, at the beach, at parties, at weddings, and late at night in my friends’ kitchens.
Moira took the music out of the classroom and brought it to life. Her passion was not only for playing music, but also for sharing it. My time with Moira allowed me to grow both musically and personally. I have met so many special people and had so many memorable experiences. Moira has proven to be the most important influence in my musical development, and also my invaluable friend.
4. How did the author feel about violin practice at the beginning
A. Interesting. B. Challenging. C. Inspiring. D. Unexciting.
5. What can we infer from the passage
A. The writer was proud of Moira’s achievements in music.
B. The writer became a popular local violinist.
C. The writer spent all her spare time playing the violin.
D. The writer had more self-confidence in terms of performing.
6. What can we know from the last paragraph
A. Classroom was not a suitable place for Moira to practice any more.
B. Moira helped the writer a lot with her personal life experience.
C. Moira played a significant role in the writer’s musical progress.
D. Moira was very thankful for the writer’s musical support.
7. What would be the best title for the passage
A. My Way to Success B. My Invaluable Friend
C. Middle School Musical D. How I Learned the Violin
C
Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it also applies to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary material we are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.
8. What does the underlined word “over-consumption” refer to
A. Using too much packaging.
B. Recycling too much waste.
C. Making more products than necessary.
D. Having more material than is needed.
9. The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show ________.
A. the tendency of cutting household waste
B. the increase of packaging recycling
C. the rapid growth of supermarkets
D. the fact of packaging overuse
10. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4
A. Unpackaged products are of bad quality.
B. Supermarkets care more about packaging.
C. It is improper to judge quality by packaging.
D. Other products are better packaged than food.
11. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A Fighting wastefulness is difficult.
B. Needless material is mostly recycled.
C. People like collecting recyclable waste.
D. The author is proud of his consumer culture.
D
Can you survive an unannounced storm Although there is expert broadcasting and we have cell phones, there are still some instances (情况) when the violent weather takes us by surprise.
While most Atlantic hurricanes form off the roust of Africa giving plenty of early warning, sudden Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico hurricanes form and move rapidly in less than a day’s time, endangering everyone and everything in their path.
Oil workers were trapped off the shore (海岸) when sudden storms appeared. Natural scientists have been stuck in coastal areas without storm warning. Ten years ago a Texas National Guard group was trapped on the beach by rain-forced flooding and bad to ride out (经受得住) a major hurricane during a training exercise. There’ve been a few instances when travelers were trapped on an island or in a coastal area and unable to escape in time.
Escaping from the storm-threatens areas is generally a choice for most of us — but not for all. Each year thousands of islanders across the Caribbean face the danger of hurricanes without so much as a public shelter to hide in. Most ride out the storm in their homes.
But there’re a few things yon ran do to prepare yourself for some unexpected emergencies. Being prepared for the unexpected may be your best and only defense. If you’re headed outdoors for a few days or weeks, you should always carry a flashlight with extra batteries, a Beidou device, and a basic medical box. If you’re traveling in your ear, remember you may suffer high winds. You’d better not stay inside to avoid being blown away along with your car. Keeping your head and your courage up is essential (必要的) to survival in any type of danger. Let common sense guide you and always be prepared for the worst.

Billy was 15 years old then. He grew up in a very poor neighborhood. No one in his family had gone to college before. Actually, few people around him had received higher education. They all struggled to live a good life. Therefore, Billy knew nothing about colleges or scholarships and he never thought he would go to college one day. Although he was a smart boy, he didn’t study hard at school and often got into trouble with other teenagers in his neighborhood.
One day, while Billy was walking on the playground, a boy of his age started making fun of him. Then that boy pushed him hard and Billy fell onto the ground. Billy became so angry that he stood up and beat that boy. So a fight began.
It happened that Billy’s English teacher Mr. Smith was walking nearby. He immediately ran to the boys to stop the fight. Billy was a bit worried because he knew his teacher was very strict with students. He was afraid his teacher would punish him. However, to his astonishment, his teacher didn’t do that.
“Billy, let’s have a talk,” said his teacher.
Billy, not knowing what his teacher wanted to do, was very worried. But he nodded. So they went to a bench nearby and sat down. After they sat down, Mr. Smith began, “Billy, I know you’re a smart boy, but you’re wasting your life now. Why don’t you study hard to go to college so that you can change your life and have a bright future ”
Hearing that, Billy didn’t know what to say. He had never thought about it. Billy was in silence. Mr. Smith continued, “I know you may have never thought about going to college. But everything is possible. When I was at your age, I was a troublemaker just like you and never thought I’d be able to go to college, either. It was all because of the support and encouragement of Mr. Howard, my math teacher in high school.”
