A
Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素)three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness and even death. And if that weren’t bad enough, he had no health insurance.
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he’d better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar. com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1, 100 people share personal stories, information and resources.
Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children’s forums together most evenings. “Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over, ”says Swencki, one of the site’s volunteers. “They know what he’s going through, so he doesn’t feel alone. ”
Kody is anything but alone; diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
These days, Thomas’s main focus is his charity, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can’t afford a diabetic’s huge expenses. Fight-it. Org has raised about $23, 000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables. “Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure, ”says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar’s original members. “But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now. ”

Switzerland is the best place to be born in the world in 2013, and the US is just 16th. A new study produced by the Economist Intelligence Unit says American babies will have a dimmer(更暗淡的)future than those born in Hong Kong, Ireland and even Canada. The EIU, a sister company of The Economist, attempted to measure how well countries will provide the best opportunities for a healthy, safe and prosperous life in years to come.
People born in Switzerland will tend to be the happiest and have the best quality of life judged in terms of wealth, health and trust in public institutions, according to the analysis. The Scandinavian countries of Norway, Sweden and Denmark also all make the top five in a‘quality-of-life’index(指数)where it is best to be born next year.
One of the most important factors is being rich, but other factors come into play including crime, trust in public institutions and the health of family life. In total, the index takes into account 11 factors. These include fixed factors such as geography, others that change slowly over time such as demography(人口学)social and cultural characteristics, and the state of the world economy. The index also looks at income per head in 2030, which is roughly when children born in 2013 will reach adulthood. Small economies dominate the top 10 countries, with Australia coming second and New Zealand and the Netherlands not too far behind.
Half of the top 10 countries are European, but only one, the Netherlands, is from the euro-zone. The crisis-ridden south of Europe, including Greece, Portugal and Spain, lags behind despite the advantage of a favourable climate. Interestingly, the largest European economies—Germany, France and Britain—do not do particularly well. Nigeria has the unenviable(不值得羡慕的)title of being the worst country for a baby to enter the world in 2013.
6. According to the passage, the happiest people may live in .
A. Denmark B. Switzerland
C. Germany D. Nigeria
7. The factors of telling the best place to be born don’t include .
A. economy
B. geography
C. trust in public institutions
D. pollution
8. From the passage, we know .
A. the Economist Intelligence Unit is a company
B. The Economist attempted to measure the best place to live
C. the Scandinavian countries are hardly at the top of the list
D. half of the top 10 countries are from the euro-zone
9. The purpose of the text is to show people .
A. the best place to be born in 2013
B. a new study made by the EIU
C. the worst country to be born in 2013
D. the factors of measuring the best place to be born
10. Which country doesn’t belong to the largest European economies?
A. Germany. B. The U. K.
C. France. D. Canada.

It seems like every day there’s some new research about whether our favorite drinks are good for us. One day, science says a glass of red wine a day will help us live longer. The next day, maybe not. It seems journalists are pretty interested in wine research and the same might be said for coffee. Now there’s been a lot of research into whether coffee’s good for our health. “The results have really been mixed, ”admits Neal Freedman who led the coffee study and published his findings in a medical journal recently. “There’s been some evidence that coffee might increase the risk of certain diseases and there’s also been maybe more recent evidence that coffee may protect against other diseases as well. ”
Freedman and his colleagues undertook the biggest study yet to look at the relationship between coffee and health. They analyzed data collected from more than 400, 000 Americans aged 50 to 71 participating in the study. “We found that the coffee drinkers had a modestly lower risk of death than the non-drinkers, ”he said. Here’s what he means by “modestly”: those who drank at least two or three cups a day were about 10 percent or 15 percent less likely to die for any reason during the 13 years of the study. When the researchers looked at specific causes of death, coffee drinking appeared to cut the risk of dying from heart disease, lung disease, injuries, accidents and infections.
Now, Freedman stressed that the study doesn’t prove coffee can make people live longer. A study like this can never prove a cause-and-effect relationship. All it can really do is point researchers in the right direction for further investigation. And even if it turns out that coffee is really good for you, scientists have no idea why.
11. According to the first paragraph, reporters would like to know the research findings of .
A. tea B. beer C. alcohol D. coffee
12. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Freedman and his colleagues hired 40, 000 Americans to collect data.
B. About four hundred thousand Americans worked for Freedman’s team full time for 13 years.
C. People who took part in Freedman’s research are about 50 to 70 years old.
D. People who are 50 to 70 years old seldom drink coffee.
13. According to the author, scientists .
A. have already proved that coffee is good for human health
B. have a long way to go before they find a way to study coffee
C. have avoided the cause-and-effect approach to studying coffee
D. are still unable to figure out why coffee is good for us
14. The underlined word “mixed” in the first paragraph means“ ”.
A. both good and bad B. put together
C. both sharp and soft D. confused
15. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?
A. Can Beer Help You Live Longer?
B. Can Coffee Help You Live Longer?
C. Can Wine Help You Live Longer?
D. Can Tea Help You Live Longer?

New technology links the world as never before. Our planet has shrunk. 1 And, of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communications equipment is greatly increased by foreign language skills.
Deeply involved with this new technology is a kind of modern businesspeople who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. 2 Overseas assignments (指派) are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive (行政的) ranks. 3 He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the company’s plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to manage back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more common.
Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices (装置) with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets.
4 But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn’t generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal.
The employee posted abroad who speaks the country’s language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight (洞察力) to know when it is better to move more slowly. 5
A. The employee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign customers over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset (有价值的人或物) to the firm.
B. We are connected by the Internet.
C. More and more people are learning English.
D. It’s now a “global village” where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone or satellite link.
E. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind”.
F. English is still the international language of business.
G. In modern markets, success overseas often helps support domestic business efforts.

一、基础点拨
（一）非谓语动词
一些在句中不作谓语但可作其他句子成分并具有动词特征的动词形式叫非谓语动词。
非谓语动词分为动词不定式、动词-ing形式和动词-ed形式三种形式。 1. 动词不定式作宾语。
动词不定式作宾语时，往往跟在某些及物动词的后面。常见的此类动词有：afford, agree, ask, decide, desire, expect, fail, manage, pretend, plan, refuse, hope, want, wish等。
*He didn’t afford to buy a house so he decided to rent one.
他买不起房子，所以决定租一套。【名师点津】动词不定式作宾语时，如果其后跟宾语补足语，这时常用it作形式宾语，把不定式后置。例如：The teacher found it difficult to ban students from carrying mobile phones. 老师发现禁止学生带手机很难。 2. 动词不定式作宾语补足语。
(1)跟不定式作宾语补足语的动词有advise, allow, beg, tell, ask, order, persuade, cause, force, forbid, invite, request, want, warn等。
*Do you want me to help you?
你需要我帮忙吗？ (2)有些动词，如make, let, have, see, watch, hear, notice等用不带to的不定式作宾语补足语，但改为被动语态时，不定式要加to。
*I often hear him sing this song.
我经常听到他唱这首歌。(主动)
*He is often heard to sing this song.
(人们)经常听到他唱这首歌。(被动)【巧学助记】用省略to的不定式作宾语补足语的动词
吾(五)看三室(使)二厅(听)一感觉。
五看：see, watch, look at, notice, observe
三使：let, make, have
二听：hear, listen to
一感觉：feel 3. 动词-ing形式作宾语。
跟v. -ing形式作宾语的动词(短语)有enjoy, admit, avoid, escape, consider(考虑), delay, put off, give up, advise, suggest, dislike, mind, miss, practise, risk, appreciate，be used to（习惯于）, feel like, look forward to, get down to, can’t help（情不自禁）等。
*Only when we enjoy practicing speaking English can we improve rapidly. 只有当我们喜欢练习说英语的时候，我们才能快速提高。【名师点津】当动词-ing形式作宾语时，如果其后还有宾语补足语，这时通常用it作形式宾语，把动词-ing形式置于后面。例如：We consider it no use arguing with her. 我们认为和她争论是没用的。 4. 动词-ing形式作宾语补足语。
动词-ing形式作宾语补足语时，宾语和宾语补足语之间是主动关系，且强调动作正在进行或延续。
*They saw the water running down from the high mountain.
他们看到水从高山上流下来。 5. 过去分词作宾语补足语。
及物动词的过去分词作宾语补足语时，与宾语之间是被动关系，有时还表示动作的完成；不及物动词的过去分词作宾语补足语时，与宾语之间没有被动关系，多表示状态或完成。
*I heard English spoken just now.
刚才我听到有人说英语。
*China had Shenzhou Ⅹ spaceship launched successfully.
中国成功发射了“神舟”十号飞船。 6. 表示感情的一些动词-ing形式和-ed形式相当于形容词，可以在句中作表语、宾语补足语和定语，前者表示“令人……的”，后者表示“感到……的”。
*The accident was so terrifying that everyone present was terrified at the sight of it. 这起事故令人害怕，在场的每个人看到后都很害怕。
*The excited boys made the bored adult excited too, so the scene was exciting.
这些兴奋的男孩让那些厌倦的成年人也兴奋起来，所以整个场面很令人兴奋。【名师点津】表示感情的一些动词-ing形式既修饰人也修饰物，如an interesting man/book一个有趣的人/一本有趣的书；-ed形式通常修饰人和一些表示感情、眼泪或话语的词，如look, expression, tears, words等。例如：People interested in the program expressed their interest with a satisfied look.
对这个节目感兴趣的人们面带满意的表情表达了他们的兴趣。 （二）连系动词
连系动词本身有一定意义，但不能独立作谓语，必须和表语一起构成复合谓语。常见的连系动词有以下几种：状态系动词be, remain, keep, stay; 表示“看起来“的系动词seem, appear, look；表示“……起来”的感官系动词feel, smell, sound, taste, look；变化系动词become, grow, turn, fall, get, go, come等。 *After he became rich, he looked as if he were the richest man in the world.
自从他变富之后，他看起来就像是世界上最富有的人。
*Though his dream has come true, he remains unhappy.
虽然他的梦想实现了，但他还是不高兴。【名师点津】连系动词后面除可跟形容词外，也可接like, as if/as though等短语或句型。例如： He sounds as if he were crying while she appears like a happy girl. 他听起来好像在哭，而她看起来像一个快乐的女孩。 二、难点突破
1. “疑问词+动词不定式”作宾语。
tell, understand, show, know, explain, teach, learn, advise, discuss等后面常接“疑问词+动词不定式”作宾语，在这种结构中，动词不定式通常只能用主动形式即to do这种形式。
*He can expect what to happen and how to deal with it in such a situation.
他能预料到在这种情况下会发生什么事情并且怎样处理。 2. 表示“除了”的介词 but/except/other than接动词不定式。
当but/except/other than前面有实义动词do的形式时，其后接省to的不定式，反之，接带to的不定式。but常用于下面表示“不得不”的固定表达中：can’t choose/help but do sth. , can’t but do sth. 。
*He did nothing but sleep while she had no choice but to work. She can’t choose but think why. 他除了睡觉什么也不做，而她只能工作。她禁不住想这是为什么。 3. 既接动词不定式也接动词-ing形式的动词。
有些动词接动词不定式和接动词-ing形式时没有很大区别，如continue, begin, start, prefer, like, love, hate等。但有些动词或动词短语后面接这两种形式时，意思却完全不同。例如：
forget to do sth. 忘记要做某事
forget doing sth. 忘记做过某事
remember to do sth. 记得要做某事
remember doing sth. 记得做过某事mean to do sth. 打算做某事
mean doing sth. 意味着做某事
try to do sth. 试图做某事
try doing sth. 试着做某事
stop to do sth. 停下来去做某事
stop doing sth. 停止正在做的事
regret to do sth. 遗憾/抱歉要做
regret doing sth. 后悔做过某事
go on to do sth. 接下来做另外一件事
go on doing sth. 继续做原来的事情be used to do sth. 被用来做某事
be used to doing sth. 习惯于做某事
can’t help (to) do sth. 不能帮助做某事
can’t help doing sth. 禁不住做某事【名师点津】 need, require, want等后面的非谓语动词与主语是被动关系时，用动词不定式的被动式和动词-ing形式的主动形式都可以。例如：The pollution needs/requires/wants to be dealt with. = The pollution needs/requires/wants dealing with. 污染需要治理了。【高考体验】
掌握非谓语动词的关键四步：
1. 分清非谓语动词在句中作什么成分;
2. 明确非谓语动词的形式;
3. 明确非谓语动词的动作发生的时间;
4. 确定非谓语动词和哪个名词或代词之间的逻辑关系。1. (2013·北京高考)Volunteering gives you a chance ______ lives, including your own.
A. change B. changing C. changed D. to change
解题关键: 掌握几个常用不定式作定语的名词chance, ability和way。
思路分析: 选D。考查非谓语动词。句意: 志愿服务给你一个改变生活的机会, 包括改变你自己的生活。题干中已经有谓语动词gives, 故A选项change谓语动词形式不能选, 只能选非谓语形式, chance后往往接of doing sth. 或to do sth. , 即give sb. a chance to do sth. /of doing sth. 给某人做某事的机会。易错误区: 干扰项是B, 有些同学认为change和chance之间是主动关系, 而误选B。事实上, 表示“……机会”用a chance to do sth. 。2. (2013·北京高考)When we saw the road ______ with snow, we decided to spend the holiday at home.
A. block B. to block C. blocking D. blocked
解题关键: block和宾语the road之间为动宾关系
思路分析: 选D。考查非谓语动词。句意: 当我们看到道路被雪阻断了时, 我们决定在家度假。road和block之间是被动关系, 故用block的过去分词作宾语补足语。3. (2013·福建高考)________basic first-aid techniques will help you respond quickly to emergencies.
A. Known B. Having known
C. Knowing D. Being known
思路分析: 选C。考查非谓语动词。句意: 知道基本的急救技术将会帮助你对紧急情况快速作出反应。由句式分析可知本句缺少主语, 且不强调动作的时间对比及被动, 故用动名词的一般形式作主语。4. (2013·四川高考)______which university to attend, the girl asked her teacher for advice.
A. Not knowing B. Knowing not
C. Not known D. Known not
思路分析: 选A。考查非谓语动词。句意: 由于不知道要上哪所大学, 女孩向她的老师征求意见。非谓语动词的否定形式要在非谓语动词前面加not, 故排除B项和D项; 根据句意可知主语the girl和know之间为逻辑上的主谓关系, 故选择v. -ing形式。C项表示和主语之间为被动关系。Ⅰ. 单项填空
1. Please remember ______ the plants while I am away.
A. watering B. to be watering
C. to water D. being watered
【解析】选C。考查非谓语动词。句意: 当我不在家时, 请记住给这些植物浇水。remember to do sth. 记住去做某事; remember doing sth. 记得做过的事情。2. (2013·北京高二检测)Do you think you will have the work ______ on time?
A. finished B. finishing
C. to finish D. finish
【解析】选A。考查非谓语动词。句意: 你认为你能按时完成这项工作吗? have sth. done表示“把某事做完或让某人做某事”, 宾语sth. 和宾语补足语之间是被动关系。此处the work和finish之间是被动关系, 故选A。3. With housing prices ______ sharply, nowadays buying an apartment is out of reach for young couples.
A. to rise B. being risen
C. rising D. to be risen
【解析】选C。考查with的复合结构。句意: 由于房价迅速上涨, 现在年轻人买房子是遥不可及的。根据句意可知, rise这一动作现在正在发生, rise是不及物动词, 不能用于被动形式, 由此可知选C。【变式训练】
With a lot of difficult problems______, the man felt like a cat on hot bricks.
A. settling B. settled
C. to settle D. being settled
【解析】选C。考查with的复合结构。句意: 有很多问题要解决, 所以这个人感觉像热锅上的蚂蚁。根据句意可知, settle这一动作发生在将来, 所以用动词不定式。4. The thief was cunning(狡猾的). He told a lie to the policeman ______ at the scene.
A. when questioned B. while to be questioned
C. as questioning D. when questioning
【解析】选A。考查非谓语动词作状语。句意: 这个小偷很狡猾, 当警察在现场讯问他时, 他对警察撒谎了。question与主语he之间是被动关系, 所以用过去分词。when questioned at the scene相当于when he was questioned at the scene。5. As soon as he came in the classroom, he saw his mother ______ at his desk.
A. being sat B. sitting
C. to sit D. sat
【解析】选B。考查非谓语动词。see sb. +do/doing/done表示“看到某人做了/正在做/被……”, 此处指看到母亲正坐在他的桌子旁, sit是不及物动词, 由此可知选B。6. (2013·济南高二检测)We often provide our children with toys, footballs or basketballs, ______that all children like these things.
A. thinking B. think C. to think D. thought
【解析】选A。考查非谓语动词。句意: 我们总是给孩子玩具、足球或篮球, 认为所有的孩子都喜欢这些东西。根据句意和句子结构可知, thinking作伴随状语。7. (2013·泉州高二检测)______that he had wasted a lot of time, Tom decided to work hard on his study.
A. Realizing B. To realize
C. Realized D. Having been realized

War Horse is a historical story by Michael Morpurgo. It is written for kids aged 8 to 12. Now just sit and get through the introduction to the plot.
In 1914, a young horse named Joey is sold to a farmer. The farmer’s son, Albert, is thrilled. He cares for Joey. When the family begins to feel the financial influence of war, Albert’s father secretly sells Joey to an army officer named Captain Nicholls. Albert begs the captain to let him join the army. Albert is too young, but Nicholls promises to take good care of Joey for him.
Nicholls treats Joey well. Though Joey still remembers Albert, he grows to like his new master. He develops a friendship with another horse, Topthorn, who belongs to Nicholls’ friend, Captain Stewart. The horses and men are shipped overseas for battle. They soon face their own battle in France, and Captain Nicholls is killed.
A young soldier named Warren becomes Joey’s new owner. Joey and Topthorn do well in battle, but the Germans capture Warren and Stewart and their horses. The horses’ duty of pulling carts full of wounded German soldiers earns them praise. An old farmer and his granddaughter, Emilie, dote on the horses as well. When the German army moves out of the area, Emilie and her grandfather keep the two horses. Joey and Topthorn are content to work the farm until another band of soldiers takes them. They become workhorses under bad conditions. Joey is very upset when Topthorn dies of exhaustion.
Alone and frightened, Joey wanders into “no-man’s-land” between the German and English camps. An English soldier takes him back to camp.
Joey is reunited with Albert. As the war ends, Albert’s officer announces the horses will be sold in France. An old Frenchman buys Joey. The man, Emilie’s grandfather, tells Albert how Emilie lost the will to live after the two horses were taken. However, he eventually sells Joey to Albert for one penny, as long as Albert promises to share Emilie’s story so her life will not be in vain. Joey and Albert return home.
1. Why does Albert’s father secretly sell Joey?
A. Because he’s in need of money.
B. Because Captain Nicholls is fond of Joey.
C. Because Albert is too young to care for Joey.
D. Because he believes Joey will contribute to the country.
2. Which of the following is TRUE about Captain Nicholls?
A. He’s a rich man.
B. He’s a Frenchman.
C. He’s a man of his word.
D. He doesn’t win Joey’s trust.
3. The underlined phrase “dote on” in Paragraph 4 probably means .
A. train B. ride C. raise D. love
4. What causes the death of Topthorn?
A. Too little food. B. Wound.
C. Tiredness. D. Too little water.

As the Titanic was sinking and women and children climbed into lifeboats, the musicians from the ship’s band stood and played. They died when the ship went down. Men stood on the deck and smoked cigarettes. They died, too. This behavior is puzzling to economists, who like to believe that people tend to act in their own self interest. “There was no pushing, ”says David Savage, an economist at Queensland University in Australia who has studied witness reports from the survivors. It was “very, very orderly behavior”.
Savage has compared the behavior of the passengers on the Titanic with those on the Lusitania, another ship that also sank at about the same time. But when the Lusitania went down, the passengers panicked. There were a lot of similarities between these two events. These two ships were both luxury ones, they had a similar number of passengers and a similar number of survivors.
The biggest difference, Savage concludes, was time. The Lusitania sank in less than 20 minutes. But for the Titanic, it was two-and-a-half hours. “If you’ve got an event that lasts two-and-a-half hours, social order will take over and everybody will behave in a social manner, ”Savage says. “If you’re going down in under 17 minutes, basically it’s instinctual. ”On the Titanic, social order ruled, and it was women and children first. On the Lusitania, instinct won out. The survivors were largely the people who could swim and get into the lifeboats.
Yes, we’re self-interested, Savage says. But we’re also part of a society. Given time, social norms(规范)can beat our natural self-interest. A hundred years ago, women and children always went first. Men were stoic(坚忍的). On the Titanic, there was enough time for these norms to become forceful.
6. According to the author, economists were confused because .
A. people’s behavior was disorderly on the Titanic
B. people did not act in their own interest on the Titanic
C. most men did not act in their own interest on the Lusitania
D. women and children could not climb into the lifeboats
7. The expression “won out” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to“ ”.
A. took the upper hand B. went out of control
C. ran wild D. shut down
8. According to David Savage, was a critical factor in determining people’s behavior in the sinking of these two ships.
A. social order B. place C. instinct D. time
9. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. Both ships were expensive ones.
B. The numbers of women and children from both ships who survived were similar.
C. About the same number of people from each ship died.
D. Both ships had a similar number of passengers.
10. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?
A. Why Didn’t Musicians Play on the Lusitania?
B. Why Did Musicians Play on the Titanic?
C. Why Didn’t Passengers Panic on the Titanic?
D. Why Did Men Smoke on the Titanic?

根据短文的内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you think you’ve gained too much weight or are too skinny, you can talk to a doctor. Your doctor will tell you 1 .
If it is concerned about your height, weight, or BMI (体重指数), your doctor may ask questions 2 . Your doctor may also ask about your family background to find out if you’ve received something from your parents that might make you taller, shorter, or a late bloomer (someone who develops later than other people of the same age). The doctor can then put all the information together to decide 3 .
If your weight isn’t in a healthy range, you will probably get specific diet and exercise recommendations based on your individual needs. Following a doctor’s or dietitian’s plan designed especially for you will work much better than following fad (时尚) diets. For teens, fad diets or starvation plans can actually slow down growth, and the weight loss usually doesn’t last.
What 4 ? Most teens who weigh less than other teens of their age are just fine. They may be going through puberty on a different schedule than kids of the same age, and their bodies may be growing and changing at a different rate. Most underweight teens catch up in weight as they finish puberty during their later teen years so there’s rarely a need to try to gain weight.
In a few cases, teenagers can be underweight because of a health problem that needs treatment. If you feel tired or ill a lot, or 5 , or other problems that have lasted for more than a week or two, be sure to let your parents or your doctor know.
A. whether you might have a weight or growth problem
B. if you have symptoms like a cough, stomachache
C. about your health, physical activity, and eating habits
D. if you’re worried about being too skinny
E. if you take care of it
F. whether you’re growing normally
G. about your dieting

The Million Pound Note is set in England in the early of the 20th century. Two rich brothers give Henry Adams, a poor American， a million pound note to find out whether the note will bring him endless wealth or it is just a piece of paper for nothing. They also require Adams should live comfortably for one month without ever spending a penny of it. Adams, dressed in rags, is looked down upon whenever he eats in a restaurant or buys clothes in a shop. However, seeing the note, people change their attitude quickly and do everything to please him. Trouble arises when he owes more and more debts.
Fortunately, a month goes by fast before he returns the note. He feels relieved that though he loses the money, he learns a lot. Module 3 Introduction & Reading and Vocabulary

Director Ang Lee joked that his latest film Life of Pi in three years hit the four most notorious(臭名昭著的)“vices” in the moviemaking process: kids, animals, water and 3-D, but reviews have said Lee’s Life of Pi is “one of the year’s most beautiful, original and adventurous pictures”.
Based on the best-selling novel by Yann Martel, Life of Pi tells the story of Pi, a young man who gets trapped at sea with a tiger after the ship carrying Pi’s family and his father’s zoo from India to Canada sinks.
“Visually, Life of Pi, which mixes real tigers with computer-generated effects, is like nothing seen on screen in some time, ”movie critic Justin Chang wrote in his review for Variety magazine. “And the 3-D in particular is the best since perhaps Avatar. ”
Lee told the New York Film Festival audience that Life of Pi was extremely hard to make. Due to weather conditions and the difficulty of controlling animals, he said, only one-eighth of his planned shots were actually filmed.
Regardless of arduous conditions, Lee was able to push an excellent lead performance from Sharma, a newcomer who originally accompanied his brother to the studio before landing the role of Pi himself.
“By the end of it, I didn’t feel like I was acting anymore, ”Sharma recently told a Hollywood reporter. “I was an instrument, of sorts, and Lee pulled the emotion through me. It just went in and came out. ”
The film isn’t perfect, though. The New York Times said there’s “a clunky(笨重)moment of exposition at the end that feels entirely too on-the-nose”. But we know what to expect from Lee, one of the most successful Chinese directors in Hollywood. One thing is for sure: he never disappoints.
1. Justin Chang thinks the film Life of Pi is .
A. excellent B. ordinary
C. notorious D. disappointing
2. The film Life of Pi was hard to make partly because .
A. Lee was not familiar with 3-D
B. it’s difficult to deal with animals
C. there were too many shots to be filmed
D. computer-generated effects were hard to produce
3. It can be inferred that Sharma .
A. didn’t like acting in the film
B. was turned into a machine by Lee
C. had never expected to get the role of Pi
D. went to Ang Lee to ask for the role of Pi
4. The underlined word “arduous”(in Paragraph 5)means .
A. difficult B. excellent
C. stable D. unfamiliar
5. We can learn from the last paragraph that .
A. the ending of Life of Pi is quite disappointing
B. Lee is a Chinese director who often confuses audiences
C. Life of Pi tells people that life is full of clunky moments
D. the New York Times was a little unsatisfied with the ending

When I woke up this morning to learn that short-story writer Alice Munro had won the Nobel Prize for literature, I felt as happy as a Canadian. Munro is the writer I have loved the most and loved the longest.
Munro is only the 13th woman to win the Nobel Prize for literature, and she is a woman who writes well, I can’t bring myself to say “wrote”, despite her announcement this summer that her recent collection, Dear Life, would be her last. Anyway, she is a woman who writes about women and their concerns: love, security, jealousy, ambition, husbands, aging, housework, boredom, regret, and children. The younger women in her older stories are often poor, or very nearly so; the older women in her later stories are sometimes successful, or married to successful men. She returns so often to the same territory in rural Ontario that her work has been called “Southern Ontario Gothic”. But the fact that she writes about one particular place belies(掩饰)the diversity(多样性)of her characters’ personalities and desires: To know one girl in 20th-century rural Ontario is not to know them all.
Munro is a writer who has greater reputation in the West, like last year’s Chinese winner Mo Yan. Munro has won the Booker, the National Book Critics Circle, the O. Henry, and just about every other award and honor the continent has to offer. When I heard she won $10, 000 for something called the “Harbourfront Festival Prize” a few weeks ago, I smiled to myself, imagining her rolling her eyes and cashing yet another check. Not that she would ever roll her eyes: At 82, she has perfected the “overwhelming favorite acts humbly surprised upon winning” dance. “I knew I was in the running, yes, but I never thought I would win, ”she told the Canadian media in a post-Nobel phone interview this morning.
6. According to the passage, we know that .
A. Munro is the 13th Canadian who has won the Nobel Prize
B. Munro has decided to stop writing
C. Munro is good at writing long novels
D. Munro is a young woman
7. Munro’s characters in her stories .
A. are similar
B. have different features
C. are a girl in 20th-century rural Ontario
D. all have a happy marriage
8. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 means .
A. if you know one person, you will know all the people
B. one person in one place will stand for all the people there
C. all the girls are the same in one place
D. every person in one place has his/her own unique features
9. Which of the following is TRUE about Munro?
A. She has won many awards.
B. She is a friend of Mo Yan.
C. She won $10, 000 for the Nobel Prize.
D. She loves money very much.
10. When she knew she was offered the Nobel Prize, Munro felt .
A. astonished B. encouraged
C. moved D. excited

阅读第二节
根据短文内容, 从下框A~F选项中选出能概括每段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。
A. Hard work
B. Principles for success
C. Active learners
D. A sense of humor
E. A successful sales team
F. A head start
1.
I was hired to do some training for a sales team from one of the largest companies in America. There were 16 people on this team. That year their sales (for the 16 of them) were close to 250 million—that’s right, a quarter of a billion dollars! Needless to say, it was an excellent and interesting time. I decided to learn a little bit myself, so I watched them closely to see what kind of people they were and to see what common characteristics they shared.
2.
They simply weren’t a terribly serious bunch of people. Instead, they saw that life was to be enjoyed and that means they were able to laugh a little bit. Sure, there were varying levels in this but they all had a sense of humor. They were able to laugh at circumstances, and they were able to laugh at themselves. It was quite refreshing and the most important key to their success, I’m sure.
3.
They didn’t come from families that gave them a free pass into the upper rank of the business world and they didn’t get a head start from upper outside universities. What got them to where they are now? Hard work! That’s right, another example that if you put your mind to it, work hard and get in the right situation, you can achieve great things! These folks work long hours and are disciplined in the work they do. And it is paying off.
4.
They were always occupied in the learning process. During my sessions they were attentive and listening. You could see their minds processing the information. They were asking questions and applying the material to their work and their lives. They wanted to improve in any way that they could. It was also interesting to watch them in their team meetings led by their sales manager. They were very interactive and were learning from one another. None of them was above learning from a colleague.
5.
What did I see in these successful people? The same things that can make you a success as you apply the principles to your own life: a sense of humor, hard work, and a desire to learn at every turn.

②The student listened with full attention, trying not to miss any point.
学生全神贯注地听，尽量不漏掉任何一点。【想一想】本句中出现了动词-ing形式作状语，过去分词作状语时，和句子主语是什么关系？另外，你还能想出一些和as quiet as mice/a mouse结构类似的短语吗？
【参考答案】过去分词作状语和as. . . as. . . 固定搭配
1. 过去分词作状语时，过去分词和句子主语之间是被动关系。例如：Bitten by the dog, he is frightened at the sight of it. 被狗咬了以后，他一看到狗就害怕。2. as. . . as. . . 固定搭配

Once a little pile of flies had been counted, I pushed them off the edge of the paper. As we recorded our data, I 52 one eye on them.

第一节(共15小题; 每小题2分, 满分30分)
A
I am trying to muster(鼓起)the courage to toss away my mobile phone to enjoy a more peaceful and ring-free life.
Can you imagine not having your mobile phone? In our high-tech, in-a-hurry age, a cell-free life is a hard concept to swallow. Our mobile phones can now access the Internet, and many people feel the need to express their every thought on their blog pages. If I gave up my cellphone, people would think I was mad.
I wish I had the strength to toss away my technology. I have an office phone, a home phone, an e-mail and if people want to contact me, they can. If I’m out, people can leave a message. Do they really need to find me? However, I’m a bit like Frodo in the movie Lord of the Rings. The power of the ring is too strong and I can’t let it go.
Mobile phones have become necessary tools in our busy life. For most people, they hold all contacts and many of us don’t write up address books any more. The latest phones carry our music, pictures, movies and everything else. We feel lost without this device and when we do misplace it, we feel cut off from our fellow.
“Where have you been? ”said a friend, who saw me a week after I lost my cellphone, “I tried calling you, but you disappeared. You disappeared off the face of the Earth. ”See, when you don’t have a mobile phone, you don’t exist.
I’m not really going to toss my mobile phone away, in fact. We humans are such social animals and mobile phones serve us well. So I’ve decided not to serve my mobile phone. Like all machines, I can always turn it off.
56. What does the underlined phrase “toss away” mean?
A. Give away. B. Get away.
C. Break away. D. Throw away.
57. The writer mentions Frodo to .
A. show it is difficult to get rid of the mobile phone
B. show how much he likes Frodo
C. suggest a cell-free life is what he wants
D. introduce a film character to us
58. What’s the purpose of the example in Paragraph 5?
A. It shows friendship is important.
B. It shows we exist in the world.
C. It shows the world is too small.
D. It shows the mobile phones can help us contact each other.
B
Maurice Sendak’s children’s book, Where the Wild Things Are, published in 1963, has become very successful throughout the years and was made into a movie earlier this year.
The book’s main character is a boy named Max who gets into trouble with his mother and is sent to bed without any supper. Before long, Max’s room magically becomes a forest, and he sails away to a land where monsters(怪物)live. Max isn’t scared, though, and becomes king of the wild things, but after a while, he begins feeling homesick. Max sails back home and his supper is still hot when he arrives at his bedroom.
Many teachers and professors like this story and use it to help children develop creativity and imagination. Melina Davis, an education professor, said she likes how the book contains a couple of pages that have only pictures on them. “This allows children to shape the story themselves, ”she said.
The book contains a few of larger words that some parents worry may confuse children, but experts say those words help improve children’s reading skills and challenge them.
Davis said the book is well written which helps kids get involved in the story. “The book talks about what all children go through, like ‘I was naughty but my mommy still loves me’, ”Davis said.
The book also encourages children to face their fears. “I think it’s really good to show that Max is friends with the monsters, ”Davis said. “Kids can find out monsters aren’t always the thing under the bed that’s going to scare them. I think this is good because it shows that the children can go to scary places but still have a positive experience. ”
Since the book has been successful throughout the years, a movie was recently made and many people are excited to see it. Davis said she thinks the movie will be wonderful but it might be a little scary for younger children. “You don’t want bad dreams over a book that’s extremely wonderful, ”Davis said.
59. Teachers and professors like the book Where the Wild Things Are because it helps children .

61. What does Davis think of the movie?
A. She thinks children of all ages will love it.
B. She encourages children to see it to fight against their fears.
C. She believes it will be a better choice for children than the book.
D. She worries that it might be too frightening for some children.

How far would you be willing to go to satisfy your need to know? Far enough to find out your possibility of dying from a terrible disease? These days that’s more than an academic question, as Tracy Smith reports in our Cover Story.
There are now more than a thousand genetic(基因的)tests, for everything from baldness to breast cancer, and the list is growing. Question is, do you really want to know what might eventually kill you? For instance, Nobel Prize-winning scientist James Watson, one of the first people to map their entire genetic makeup, is said to have asked not to be told if he were at a higher risk for Alzheimer’s(早老性痴呆病).
“If I tell you that you have an increased risk of getting a terrible disease, that could weigh on your mind and make you anxious, through which you see the rest of your life as you wait for that disease to hit you. It could really mess you up, ”said Dr. Robert Green, a Harvard geneticist.
“Every ache and pain, ”Smith suggested, could be understood as “the beginning of the end”. “That’s right. If you ever worried you were at risk for Alzheimer’s disease, then every time you can’t find your car in the parking lot, you think the disease has started. ”
Dr. Green has been thinking about this issue for years. He led a study of people who wanted to know if they were at a higher genetic risk for Alzheimer’s. It was thought that people who got bad news would, for lack of a better medical term, freak out. But Green and his team found that there was “no significant difference” between how people handled good news and possibly the worst news of their lives. In fact, most people think they can handle it. People who ask for the information usually can handle the information, good or bad, said Green.
63. The first paragraph is meant to .
A. ask some questions
B. introduce the topic
C. satisfy readers’ curiosity
D. describe an academic fact
64. According to Paragraphs 3 and 4, if a person is at a higher genetic risk, it is .
A. advisable not to let him know
B. impossible to hide his disease
C. better to inform him immediately
D. necessary to remove his anxiety
65. The underlined part “freak out” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to“ ”.
A. break down B. drop out
C. leave off D. turn away
66. The study led by Dr. Green indicates that people .
A. prefer to hear good news
B. tend to find out the truth
C. can accept some bad news
D. have the right to be informed
D
The most famous collections of fairy tales are the ones by Jakob and Wilhelm Grimm. The Grimms published their first fairy-tale collection in 1812. They didn’t think they were writing for children. They thought they were preserving disappearing German folk culture. Their first edition(版本)was a scholarly book that carefully recorded the oral tales. They were surprised when some of their early readers suggested that the stories might be interesting to children.
But the Grimms needed money. They had made a bad deal with their publisher and received little payment for their first book. At one point Wilhelm complained there wasn’t a chair in his house one could sit on without worrying it would break. So he took the hint and set to work to make a book that would be suitable for children. He selected a few of the tales, made them much longer, and polished up the language. He didn’t add morals, but he did slip in character judgments and moralizing comments wherever he could.
The Grimms’ fairy tales also have one characteristic that would seem to make them unsuitable for children. Many of them include violent incidents. In “Hansel and Gretel” a child is eaten by a wolf. When he revised the tales for children, Wilhelm Grimm retained the violence. In fact, he sometimes even ramped it up. For example, in the first edition of the tales, Cinderella forgives her sisters at the end. It’s only in the second edition, the one intended for children, that her birds peck(啄)out their eyes.
Why, then, have the Grimms’ fairy tales become classic of children’s literature, so much so that it is hard to imagine a child who doesn’t know Cinderella’s story or Snow White’s?
One answer is that only a few of the tales survived into modern times. The first edition of the Grimms’ fairy tales had 210 tales. By 1825 it was down to 50. And today only a dozen or so of the tales are often reprinted in children’s collections.
But the deeper answer is that the tales that have lasted are magical adventures that help children deal with the struggles and fears of their everyday lives.
67. Why did Wilhelm Grimm set out to adapt his book for children?
A. To deal with readers’ complaints.
B. To improve his financial situation.
C. At the request of his publisher.
D. To preserve the ancient stories in print.
68. When revising the fairy tales, Wilhelm did all of the following EXCEPT .
A. add character judgments
B. make the tales much longer
C. delete the violent scenes
D. polish up the language
69. What does the underlined expression “ramped it up” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Started. B. Allowed.
C. Classified. D. Increased.
70. What is the passage mainly concerned with?
A. History of fairy tales.
B. Ways to preserve the oral tradition.
C. The Grimms’ fairy tales.
D. Violence in fairy tales.
第二节(共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)
根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Ways to Save Time
We all wish we had just a bit more time. Just think what you could do with an extra hour or two each day: you could finally stick to an exercise routine, or spring-clean the house, or write your novel, or learn the guitar and so on.
71 But I can help you find more hours in your day for the things that really matter.
1. Get Out of Bed Earlier
If you normally get up at 7: 30 a. m. , try getting up at 7: 00 a. m. That half-hour might not sound like much, but it could be time that you use to exercise, to read that book you’ve been meaning to finish. 72?
2. Do the Important Tasks First
Once you get to work, get the important ones done first(not the easy ones, or even the urgent ones). You can afford to spend at least an hour working on big, important tasks rather than on all those little urgent ones.
73 The urgent tasks will still get done, and you won’t miss the important ones.
3. Reduce Interruptions
If colleagues have a habit of hanging around your desk to chat, or if the phone is constantly ringing, you might find that it takes you half the day to finish a simple task like writing a letter. Constant interruptions don’t just eat up time, they also break your concentration.
When you’ve got a big task to focus on, let your calls go to voicemail. 74 Wearing headphones makes it less likely that people will try to strike up a conversation.
4. 75?
A few minutes chatting, browsing the web, and so on, can easily turn into hours of wasted time over the course of a day.
When you’re working, work. If your concentration is slipping, take a proper break: go and get a glass of water, or stretch your legs a bit. And if you’re facing a difficult task, try breaking it into small steps or stages so that it’s easier to deal with.
A. Stay Focused on Your Work
B. Take Breaks When Necessary
C. If you have an office door, close it.
D. If you work like this, you’ll usually save time.
E. Would you want me to make your day longer?
F. I can’t magically make all your days 25 hours long.
G. Or simply to get your day off to a calm and organized start.
