Some people will do just about anything to save money. And I am one of them. Take my family’s last vacation. It was my six -year old son’s winter break from school, and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a week long trip. The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day．I had meetings in New York, so I had to get back. But that didn’t mean my husband and my son couldn’t stay. I took my nine- month old and took off for home．
The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes, I encouraged — okay, ordered — them to wait it out at the airport, to “earn” more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600．Not bad, huh
Now some people may think I’m a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a big time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up．
I’ve made a living looking for the best deals and exposing（揭露）the worst tricks. I have been the consumer reporter of NBC’s Today show for over a decade. I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in．
I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’s worth. I’m also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn’t hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its shape longer, and it’s the first thing people notice. And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts．

Building Trust in a Relationship Again
Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences. ___16___ Trust is a risk. But you can’t be successful when there’s a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.
Unfortunately, we’ve all been victims of betrayal. Whether we’ve been stolen from, lied to, misled, or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust. Sometimes people simply can’t trust anymore. ___17___ It’s understandable, but if you’re willing to build trust in a relationship again, we have some steps you can take to get you there.
●___18___ Having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well being.
●___19___ If you’ve been betrayed, you are the victim of your circumstance. But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a “victim mentality”. At some point in all of our lives, we’ll have our trust tested or violated.
●You didn’t lose “everything”. Once trust is lost, what is left Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life. ___20___ Instead, it’s a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.
A. Learn to really trust yourself.
B. It is putting confidence in someone.
C. Stop regarding yourself as the victim.
D Remember that you can expect the best in return.
E. They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happen again.
F. This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.
G. Seeing the positive side of things doesn’t mean you’re ignoring what happened.
【答案】16. B 17. E 18. A 19. C 20. G
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一旦失去了信任，应该如何再次建立信任。
【16题详解】
根据前一句Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences可知，信任是我们从过去的经验中学到的一种行为，B项：It is putting confidence in someone.(是相信某人)进一步解释信任，符合文意，故选B。
【17题详解】
根据前一句Sometimes people simply can’t trust anymore.可知，有时人们根本无法信任他人。E项They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happen again.(他们受到严重的伤害且不能忍受再次发生)承接上文，说明所带来的不良后果。故选E。
【18题详解】
根据下文Having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well being可知，对自己有信心会帮助你做出更好的选择，因为你能看到对你的幸福最好的结果是什么。所以本段主要在说要学会信任自己，故A项：Learn to really trust yourself.(要学会信任自己)符合文意。故选A。
【19题详解】
根据后文If you’ve been betrayed, you are the victim of your circumstance. But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a “victim mentality”.可知，如果你被背叛了，那么你是一个受害者。然而是受害者与以受害者的心态活着是有区别的。所以此段主要在说不要认为自己是受害者，C项：Stop regarding yourself as the victim.(别把自己当成受害者。)符合文意。故选C。
【20题详解】
根据下文Instead, it’s a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.可知，相反，要把这种积极的态度当成一种健康的生活方式。所以选项与后一句为转折关系。G项：Seeing the positive side of things doesn’t mean you’re ignoring what happened.(既要看到事情的积极面并不意味着忽视所发生的事情)符合文意。故选G。

【21题详解】
考查副词词义辨析。A. However 然而；B. Therefore因此；C. Besides 除此以外；D. Finally最终。上一句的句意是：人们一直认为《金银岛》一书是史蒂文森凭空想象出来的，后面的句意是“最近的一项研究发现这部令人激动的作品的一些真实的经历”。显然，两句具有转折关系（然而）。结合选项，故选A。

第II 卷(非选择题 共30分)
英语知识运用:语法填空(共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分)
Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix
In 1969,the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River Cleveland, Ohio. It___41___(be) unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up. The river was so polluted that it___42___(actual) caught fire and burned. Now, years later, this river is one of____43____most outstanding（杰出的）examples of environmental cleanup.
But the river wasn’t changed in a few days____44____even a few months. It took years of work ____45____(reduce) the industrial pollution and clean the water. Finally, that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is____46____(clean) than ever.
Maybe you are facing an impossible situation. Maybe you have a habit____47____is driving your family crazy. Possibly you drink too much or don’t know how to control your credit card use. When you face such an impossible situation, don’t you want a quick fix and something to change immediately
While there are____48____(amaze) stories of instant transformation, for most of us the____49____(change) are gradual and require a lot of effort and work, like cleaning up a polluted river. Just be ____50____(patience).
【答案】41. was
42. actually
43. the 44. or
45. to reduce
46. cleaner
47. that/which
48. amazing
49. changes
50. patient
【解析】
【分析】 本文通过借用凯霍加河在以前污染非常严重，经过多年的努力，艰苦的工作终于有了回报，河水变干净了的事实告诉我们：当你面对看起来不可能解决的事情时，要敢于想办法慢慢解决，不能急躁，因为很多变化都是逐渐发生的，需要很多努力，我们需要耐心一点。
【41题详解】
考查动词过去时态和主谓一致。根据本段第一句In 1969, the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland, Ohio.可知本段叙述的是过去发生的事情。the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland, Ohio在过去被污染地如此地严重，所以说过去没有人能够想象到这条河被清理干净。又主语“It”为三单，故填was。
【42题详解】
考查副词用法。本句中使用副词actually做状语修饰谓语动词caught fire，actual是形容词，不能在句中做状语，通常只做定语或者表语修饰名词。故填actually。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。横线后是形容词最高级most outstanding，形容词最高级前要加the,故填the。
【44题详解】
考查连词。从上一段最后一句可知几年后，这条河是环境净化最杰出的例子之一。从语境可知这条河流的改变不是几天或者几个月的事情。因此前后是选择关系，故用or。
【45题详解】
考查固定句式。固定句式：It takes sb. st to do sth.某人做某事花了多少时间；句中的不定式to reduce the industrial pollution and clean the water是句子真正的主语。前面的it是形式主语。故填to reduce。
46题详解】
考查比较级。本句： the water in the river is ___6___ (clean) than ever，横线后面有than，说明横线上应该使用比较级的形式。故填cleaner。
【47题详解】
考查定语从句。本句是一个定语从句，先行词是a habit，定语从句中使用关系代词that/which指代先行词，在句做主语，不能省略。故填which / that。
【48题详解】
考查形容词修饰物的。凡是－ed结尾的都是形容人的，表示“人感到……”，－ing结尾都是形容物的，表示“令人感到……”。本句___8___ (amazed) stories中此处修饰“stories 故事”，所以要用amazing。故填amazing。
【49题详解】
考查名词复数。横线后面是系动词are，说明横线处主语应该是一个复数形式的名词，所以用changes。故填changes。change既可以作名词也可以作动词，在此为名词。
【50题详解】
横线前面有系动词be，说明此处应用形容词，本句是一个祈使句be patient耐心一点。patient形容词，意为“耐心的”； patience名词，意为“耐心”。故填patient。
