三、阅读理解:
22.I remember my grandma sitting at the kitchen table with cucumber (黄瓜) pieces stuck on her face.My sisters and I had them on our faces,too.We would just sit laughing at each other and seeing who could stick the most on at once.We looked silly
From our days as newborns,my grandma raised all three of us while my parents worked.As I got older,my family left the apartment and moved into a new house.I called my grandparents every day.I can't remember all that we talked about,though,our phone calls centered on my school homework.
Grandma was a Greek who came to America without speaking a word of English.I remember when one of my tasks was to learn the Greek national anthem(国歌),she took it upon herself to teach my sisters and me every word.As she sang,her voice was always filled with pride.She didn't Americanize herself to fit in(根) and planted them firmly.
Now,I visit my grandma once a week in her nursing home.She can no longer walk,eat hard food,but the nurses don't understand her,as she's returned to speak Greek.
One afternoon,I was feeding my grandma and a nurse walked up to us and said,"Are you her grandson?Because she knows you ﹣ I can tell.She doesn't look at anyone else like that." I looked over and my grandma's eyes were fixed on me,she hasn't forgotten.
(1)Why did the kids put cucumber pieces on their faces?    
A.To play a joke on Grandma.
B.To get a sense of being cool.
C.To make their face skin more smooth.
D.To do what Grandma asked them to do.
(2)What can we learn about the author's grandma?    
A.She was proud of her Greek roots.
B.She was a music teacher in Greece.
C.She learned English through songs.
D.She wasn't used to living in America.
(3)What is stressed in the last paragraph?    
A.Grandma's late life.
B.Grandma's serious disease.
C.Grandma's memories of the author.
D.Grandma's deep love for the author.
23.I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books.There was not one night that I don't remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside.I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.
I always wanted to know what my mom was reading.Hearing mom say,"I can't believe what's printed in the newspaper this morning," made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself.I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew.So I carried around a book,just to be like her,I would pretend to be reading.
This is how everyone learned to read.We would start off with sentences,then paragraphs,and then stories.It seemed an unending journey,"The C﹣A﹣N﹣D﹣Y is hidden on the top shelf," I knew where the candy was.My progress in reading raised my curiosity,so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.
Most of my reading through primary,middle and high school was factual reading.I read for knowledge,and to make A's on my tests.Occasionally,but I didn't enjoy this type of reading.I liked facts,things that are concrete.I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.
Yet,now that I'm growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex,I find myself needing a way to escape.By opening a novel
We're taught to read because it's necessary for much of human understanding.Reading is a vital part of my life.Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning.And I've found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.
(1)Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom's hands?    
A.She wanted mom to read the news to her.
B.She was anxious to know what had happened.
C.She couldn't wait to tear the newspaper apart.
D.She couldn't help but stop mom from reading.
(2)According to Paragraph 3,the author's reading of road signs indicates    .
A.her unique way to locate herself
B.her eagerness to develop her reading ability
C.her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules
D.her growing desire to know the world around her.
(3)What was the author's view on factual reading?    
A.It would help her update test﹣taking skills.
B.It would allow much room for free thinking.

(4)The author takes novel reading as a way to    .
A.explore a fantasy land
B.develop a passion for leaning
C.learn about the adult community
D.get away from a confusing world
24.When we learn to drive,we need to learn basic skills such as how to switch on the engine,turn on the wipers,etc.before we actually take to the road.Once the lower order operations and skills listed above have been automatized or at least routinized to the extent that we do not have to pay attention to them(bypass Working Memory's attentional systems),we can actually be safe in the assumption that we can wholly focus on the higher order skills which will allow us to take the split seconds decisions that will prevent us from getting lost,break the traffic laws while dealing with our children messing about in the back seats.
This is what the brain does,too,when learning languages.Because Working Memory has a very limited space available when performing any task,by being performed "subconsciously" they free up cognitive(认知)space.So,if I am an advanced speaker who has routinized accurate pronunciation,grammar and syntax to a fairly high degree(Working Memory space)to the message I want to put across.On the other hand,if I still struggle with pronunciation,irregular verb forms and tenses most of my attention will be taken up by the mechanics of what I want to say,rather than the meaning;this will slow me down and limit my ability to think through what I want to say due to cognitive overload.
In language teaching this important principle translates as follows:in order to enable our students to focus on the higher order skills involved in comprehension and production we need to ensure that the lower﹣order ones have been acquired or performance will be reduced.
(1)What does paragraph 1 mainly tell us?    
A.We should improve our driving skills on the road.
B.Our basic driving will be better as time goes on and on.
C.Only by mastering driving skills can we drive safely.
D.We must operate automatically when driving on the roads.
(2)Why does the author use driving as an example in expressing his points?    
A.Learning languages has specific characters.
B.Skillful driving benefits language learning.
C.Driving safely is harder than language learning.
D.Driving and language learning share similar skills.
(3)What does the underlined word "this" in paragraph 2 refer to?    
A.The meaning we want to express.
B.Struggle with language learning problems.
C.Spending more time on the topic.
D.Devoting more conscious attention.
(4)What conclusion can we draw from the text?    
A.Well begun,half done.
B.It is never too old to learn.
C.Practice makes perfect.
D.Learn to walk before you run.
四、单句语法填空:

22.I remember my grandma sitting at the kitchen table with cucumber (黄瓜) pieces stuck on her face.My sisters and I had them on our faces,too.We would just sit laughing at each other and seeing who could stick the most on at once.We looked silly
From our days as newborns,my grandma raised all three of us while my parents worked.As I got older,my family left the apartment and moved into a new house.I called my grandparents every day.I can't remember all that we talked about,though,our phone calls centered on my school homework.
Grandma was a Greek who came to America without speaking a word of English.I remember when one of my tasks was to learn the Greek national anthem(国歌),she took it upon herself to teach my sisters and me every word.As she sang,her voice was always filled with pride.She didn't Americanize herself to fit in(根) and planted them firmly.
Now,I visit my grandma once a week in her nursing home.She can no longer walk,eat hard food,but the nurses don't understand her,as she's returned to speak Greek.
One afternoon,I was feeding my grandma and a nurse walked up to us and said,"Are you her grandson?Because she knows you ﹣ I can tell.She doesn't look at anyone else like that." I looked over and my grandma's eyes were fixed on me,she hasn't forgotten.

23.I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books.There was not one night that I don't remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside.I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.
I always wanted to know what my mom was reading.Hearing mom say,"I can't believe what's printed in the newspaper this morning," made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself.I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew.So I carried around a book,just to be like her,I would pretend to be reading.
This is how everyone learned to read.We would start off with sentences,then paragraphs,and then stories.It seemed an unending journey,"The C﹣A﹣N﹣D﹣Y is hidden on the top shelf," I knew where the candy was.My progress in reading raised my curiosity,so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.
Most of my reading through primary,middle and high school was factual reading.I read for knowledge,and to make A's on my tests.Occasionally,but I didn't enjoy this type of reading.I liked facts,things that are concrete.I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.
Yet,now that I'm growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex,I find myself needing a way to escape.By opening a novel
We're taught to read because it's necessary for much of human understanding.Reading is a vital part of my life.Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning.And I've found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.
(1)Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom's hands?  B 
A.She wanted mom to read the news to her.

A.her unique way to locate herself
B.her eagerness to develop her reading ability
C.her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules
D.her growing desire to know the world around her.
(3)What was the author's view on factual reading?  C 
A.It would help her update test﹣taking skills.
B.It would allow much room for free thinking.
C.It would provide true and objective information.
D.It would help shape a realistic and serious attitude to life.
(4)The author takes novel reading as a way to  D .
A.explore a fantasy land
B.develop a passion for leaning
C.learn about the adult community
D.get away from a confusing world
【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议文,作者讲述了自己的读书经历和感悟。
【解答】(1)B.细节理解题。根据第二段中"I always wanted to know what my mom was reading.Hearing mom say," made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself.(我一直想知道妈妈在读什么,"让我想从她手里抢过来自己读,作者总是想知道妈妈在读什么,因为作者自己迫切想看一看报纸上写的内容。
(2)D.推理判断题。根据第三段中"My progress in reading raised my curiosity,so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.(阅读的进步激发了我的好奇心。我经常发现自己告诉妈妈开慢点。)"可以推断出,所以作者在阅读方面的进步显示他对周围世界的好奇心。
(3)C.推理判断题。根据第四段第一句"Most of my reading through primary,and to make A's on my test.(我在小学。我阅读是为了获得知识。)"可知,读书是为了获取知识。因此事实性阅读能够提供真实的客观的信息。
(4)D.细节理解题。根据第五段中"By opening a novel,我可以摆脱我的负担,我现在是一个新的角色,我可以成为任何人,阅读小说可以让作者避开复杂的现实而投入到小说中的世界中去。
【点评】考查人生感悟类阅读理解。做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍,做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析,结合选项选出正确答案。推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案,切忌胡乱猜测,一定要做到有理有据。
24.When we learn to drive,we need to learn basic skills such as how to switch on the engine,turn on the wipers,etc.before we actually take to the road.Once the lower order operations and skills listed above have been automatized or at least routinized to the extent that we do not have to pay attention to them(bypass Working Memory's attentional systems),we can actually be safe in the assumption that we can wholly focus on the higher order skills which will allow us to take the split seconds decisions that will prevent us from getting lost,break the traffic laws while dealing with our children messing about in the back seats.
This is what the brain does,too,when learning languages.Because Working Memory has a very limited space available when performing any task,by being performed "subconsciously" they free up cognitive(认知)space.So,if I am an advanced speaker who has routinized accurate pronunciation,grammar and syntax to a fairly high degree(Working Memory space)to the message I want to put across.On the other hand,if I still struggle with pronunciation,irregular verb forms and tenses most of my attention will be taken up by the mechanics of what I want to say,rather than the meaning;this will slow me down and limit my ability to think through what I want to say due to cognitive overload.
In language teaching this important principle translates as follows:in order to enable our students to focus on the higher order skills involved in comprehension and production we need to ensure that the lower﹣order ones have been acquired or performance will be reduced.

A.We should improve our driving skills on the road.
B.Our basic driving will be better as time goes on and on.
C.Only by mastering driving skills can we drive safely.
D.We must operate automatically when driving on the roads.
(2)Why does the author use driving as an example in expressing his points?  D 
A.Learning languages has specific characters.
B.Skillful driving benefits language learning.
C.Driving safely is harder than language learning.
D.Driving and language learning share similar skills.
(3)What does the underlined word "this" in paragraph 2 refer to?  B 
A.The meaning we want to express.
B.Struggle with language learning problems.
C.Spending more time on the topic.
D.Devoting more conscious attention.
(4)What conclusion can we draw from the text?  D 
A.Well begun,half done.
B.It is never too old to learn.
C.Practice makes perfect.
D.Learn to walk before you run.
【分析】本文是一篇说明文,全文用开车为例,说明在语言学习中,先把基础性的内容学好,然后再做高层次的事情的重要性。
【解答】(1)C.段落大意题。根据第一段Once the lower order operations and skills listed above have been automatized or at least routinized to the extent that we do not have to pay attention to them ,we can actually be safe in the assumption that we can wholly focus on the higher order skills which will allow us to take the split seconds decisions that will prevent us from getting lost,break the traffic laws while dealing with our children messing about in the back seats.(一旦上面列出的低阶操作和技能被自动化或至少程序化到我们不必注意它们的程度(旁路工作记忆的注意系统),这将允许我们采取分裂这些决定将防止我们迷路,违反交通法规,作者讲述的在上路上先把开车的基本技能掌握好的说法看,我们才能安全开车,本段主要告诉我们只有掌握驾驶技术我们才能安全驾驶。
(2)D.推理判断题。根据第一段When we learn to drive,turn on the wipers,etc.before we actually take to the road.Once the lower order operations and skills listed above have been automatized or at least routinized to the extent that we do not have to pay attention to them.(当我们学开车的时候,比如如何打开引擎、操作刹车等等;第二段This is what the brain does,when learning languages.Because Working Memory has a very limited space available when performing any task,by being performed "subconsciously' they free up cognitive(认知)space.(这也是大脑在学习语言时所做的事情,大脑已学会自动化低阶技能,作者第一段提到开车是因为驾驶和语言学习有着相似的技能。
(3)B.词义猜测题。根据第二段On the other hand,word order,rather than the meaning.(另一方面、词序,我的大部分注意力就会被我要说的话的结构所占据,作者在语言学习上很挣扎,故选B。
(4)D.推理判断题。根据最后一段in order to enable our students to focus on the higher order skills involved in comprehension and production we need to ensure that the lower﹣order ones have been acquired or performance will be reduced.(为了让我们的学生专注于更高层次的技能,我们需要确保低层次的技能已经获得,学习语言需要循序渐进先打好基础)由此可见,跑之前先要学会走路。
【点评】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。
