It was the first snow of winter — an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been old enough to dress myself, but today would need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times, but I think she may still remember this one.
I managed to get into my wool snow trousers. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and if made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots (靴子).
In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of winter, you will all be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence (信心).
I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected grown-ups to do all the work. After much pushing, she managed to get first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.
I announced, “They’re on the wrong feet.”
She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.
“They’re my brother’s boots, you know,” I said. “I hate them”.
Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying (烦人的) little girl. She pushed and pushed, less gently this time. With а greater sigh, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your mittens ”
I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn’t want to lose them, so I hid them in the toes of my boots.

Brian arrived at the San Francisco airport two hours before the flight to Paris.He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didn’t have any other luggage. Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round trip ticket and a small package.
“Give this package to Jean Paul at the airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it.I think you can find him easily,” Tony said. “You don’t have any luggage, right ”
“Only this backpack,” Brian answered. “You said I could bring one carry on bag.”
“That’s right.One carry on bag is fine. Have a good trip.”
“Thanks.”
Is Brian a criminal(犯罪) Not at all. He is an air courier. And he paid only $110 for the round trip ticket to Paris. Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often the only way they can do this is to use an air courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick.
Every year about 80,000 people worldwide travel as air couriers. The number of tickets for the air courier travel is growing by about 10 percent a year. However, air courier travel isn’t for everyone. But if you have very little money, can be flexible(灵活的) about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!
5. Why was Brian wearing so many clothes for his travel
A. Because they were the uniforms for air couriers.
B. Because that made him easier to be recognized.
C. Because his backpack had no room for his clothes.
D. Because he did not have any luggage with him.
6. An air courier is a person who ________.
A. manages a business company in foreign countries
B. organizes international flights for tourists
C. travels around the world with cheap tickets
D. delivers papers and packages to foreign countries
7. One of the disadvantages of traveling as an air courier is that he ________.
A. cannot decide when and where to travel
B. cannot take any luggage with him
C. has to wear two pairs of jeans
D. saves little money from the travel
8. The author of the text mainly ________.

C
How can a creature weighing over 5 tons and normally taking 150 kilograms of food and 120 liters of water per day survive in a desert environment
In the southwest African country of Namibia, and the Sahara lands of Mali further north, the desert elephant does just that.
Although not regarded as a separate species from the African elephant, the desert cousin differs in many ways. Their bodies are smaller, to absorb less heat, and their feet are larger for easier walking across sandy surfaces. They are taller, to reach higher branches. They have shorter tusks (象牙), and most importantly, longer trunks to dig for water in riverbeds.
Desert elephants can travel over 70 kilometers in search for feeding grounds and waterholes, and have a larger group of families, They drink only every 3-4 days, and can store water in a “bag” at the back of their throat, which is only used when badly needed. Desert elephants are careful feeders — they seldom root up trees and break fewer branches, and thus keep what little food sources are available. Yong elephants may even eat the dung (粪便)of the female leader of a group when facing food shortage.
During drought (干旱) they are unlikely to give birth to their young but with good rains the birthrate will increase greatly. Desert elephants have sand baths, sometimes adding their own urine (尿液) to make them muddy!
As we continue to overheat our weak planet, it can only be hoped that other animal species will adapt (适应) as extraordinarily well to change as the desert elephant.
9 The underlined part in Paragraph 2 means “_______”.
A. remains in the African countries
B. drinks 120 liters of water a day
C. manages to live in desert areas
D eats 150 kilograms of food daily
10. Desert elephants are called careful feeders because they_______.
A. rarely ruin trees
B. drink only every 3-4 days
C. search for food in large groups
D. protect food sources for their young
11. What can be inferred from the last sentence in the passage
A. Overheating the earth can be stopped.
B. Not all animal species are so adaptable.
C. The planet will become hotter and hotter.
D. Not all animals are as smart as desert elephants.
D
Successful people in international business understand the cultures of other countries and learn to change their practices in different cultures. They understand the importance of avoiding business decisions based on misconceptions—mistaken ideas.
One cause of misconceptions is ethnocentrism, the belief that one’s own culture’s way of doing things is better than the way of other cultures. It’s ethnocentrism that leads to failure in international business. To avoid ethnocentrism, it’s necessary to study the different elements (组成部分) of culture: language, values and attitudes, and customs and manners.
Language
A knowledge of the local language can help international business people in four ways. First, people can communicate directly. Second, people are usually more open in their communication with someone who speaks their language. Third, an understanding of the language allows people to infer meanings that are not said directly. Finally, knowing the language helps people to understand the culture better.
Values and attitudes
Values are people’s basic beliefs about the difference between right and wrong, good and bad. An attitude is a way of thinking or acting. Values and attitudes influence international business. For example, many people in the United States believe that chocolate from Switzerland is better than chocolate from other countries, and they buy a lot of it.
Customs and manners
Customs are common social practices. Manners are ways of acting that the society believes are polite. For example, in the United States, it is the custom to have salad (色拉)before the main course at dinner, not after. It’s not acceptable to talk with food in mouth at table. Failure to understand the customs and manners of other countries will bring difficulty selling their products. Orange juice as a breakfast drink of an American company in France doesn’t sell well because the French don’t usually drink juice with breakfast.
12. A knowledge of the local language allows international business people _________.
A. to be more open with their customers
B. to communicate without outside help
C. to express their thoughts indirectly
D. to have a better idea of their own culture
13. The act of many people buying chocolate of Switzerland shows the role of ________.
A. manners B. values C. attitudes D. customs
14. What would be the best title for the text
A. Misconceptions in Business B. Basic Beliefs in Business
C. International Business Culture D. Successful International Business
15. The author’s purpose of writing this article is to tell people ___________
A. how to take a right attitude in business
B. how to avoid misunderstandings in business
C. how to use a local language in business
D. how to act politely and properly in business

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是一名幼儿园的小朋友，尽管会穿衣服，但在这个下雪的冬日早晨，故意刁难老师Miss Finlayson的故事。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“At least my hat and scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty.(至少我的帽子和围巾是我的，它们很漂亮)”可知，小女孩对她的帽子比较满意，故选D。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“I didn’t want to lose them, so I hid them in the toes of my boots.(我不想把它们弄丢，所以我把它们藏在我的靴子脚趾里)”可知，Finlayson小姐给女孩穿靴子有困难主要是因为女孩在靴子里放了东西。故选B。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times, but I think she may still remember this one.(我的幼儿园老师Finlayson小姐经历过很多次初雪，但我想她可能还记得这一次)”和倒数第四段的“She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.(她挣扎着把靴子脱下来，然后再把靴子穿上)”可知，作者多次刁难老师，故意让她帮我脱靴子，再穿上等等，说明作者说Finlayson小姐会记得第一个下雪天是因为那个小女孩捉弄了她。故选C。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中倒数第二段的“She pushed and pushed, less gently this time. With а greater sigh, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your mittens ”(她推啊推，这次没那么温柔了。她叹了一口气，看到她和我的挣扎结束了，问道：“现在，你的连指手套呢？”)”可以推断出Finlayson小姐渐渐地对小女孩失去了耐心。故选B。

【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了航空快递员的工作特点和工作方式，是对这一新兴工作的概括性介绍。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didn’t have any other luggage.”(他背着一个很满的小背包，但是他没有其他的行李。)可知，Brian之所以穿这么多衣服是因为他的背包是满的，没法放他自己的衣服。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段“Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries.”(航空快递员得到便宜的机票，因为他们把重要的包裹和文件带到国外。)可知，航空快递员的工作就是在不同国家之间递送文件和包裹。故选D。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“But if you have very little money, can be flexible(灵活的) about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!”(但是如果你的钱很少，可以灵活安排你的旅行计划，并且不介意一周穿同样的衣服，这可以是一个很好的度假方式！)可知，航空快递员挣钱不多，旅行安排多变，有时一周也没法换衣服，但是可以到处旅行。所以，“不能确定旅行时间和地点”是做航空快递员最大的缺点。故选A。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick.”(航空快递员得到便宜的机票，因为他们把重要的包裹和文件带到国外。企业有时需要在第二天之前把包裹和文件发给在国外的人。通常，他们能做到这一点的唯一途径就是使用空运公司。对于一家企业来说，用空中快递寄包裹并不便宜，但却很快。)和最后一段“But if you have very little money, can be flexible(灵活的) about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!”(但是如果你的钱很少，可以灵活安排你的旅行计划，并且不介意一周穿同样的衣服，这可以是一个很好的度假方式！)可知，文章主要介绍了航空快递员的工作特点和工作方式，是对这一新兴工作的概括性介绍。故选D。

【答案】9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种恶劣的沙漠环境中生存的非洲大象。
【详解】1. 词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“How can a creature weighing over 5 tons and normally taking 150 kilograms of food and 120 liters of water per day survive in a desert environment (一个体重超过5吨，每天需要150公斤食物和120升水的生物是如何在沙漠环境中生存下来的？)”及第二段“In the southwest African country of Namibia, and the Sahara lands of Mali further north, the desert elephant does just that.(在非洲西南部的纳米比亚和北部的马里撒哈拉地区，沙漠象就是这样做的)”可知，划线部分的意思是：这种非洲大象能够在这种沙漠条件下生存下来。故选C。
2. 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Desert elephants are careful feeders — they seldom root up trees and break fewer branches, and thus keep what little food sources are available.(沙漠象是细心的捕食者——它们很少把树连根拔起，折断的树枝也更少，因此保留了很少的食物来源)”可知，这种沙漠象被称为细心的捕食者是因为它们很少毁坏树木。故选A。
3. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“As we continue to overheat our weak planet, it can only be hoped that other animal species will adapt as extraordinarily well to change as the desert elephant.(当我们继续使我们脆弱的星球过热时，我们只能希望其他动物物种能像沙漠象那样非常好地适应变化)”可推知，并非所有的物种能像这种沙漠象一样有如此适应环境的能力。故选B。
D
Successful people in international business understand the cultures of other countries and learn to change their practices in different cultures. They understand the importance of avoiding business decisions based on misconceptions—mistaken ideas.
One cause of misconceptions is ethnocentrism, the belief that one’s own culture’s way of doing things is better than the way of other cultures. It’s ethnocentrism that leads to failure in international business. To avoid ethnocentrism, it’s necessary to study the different elements (组成部分) of culture: language, values and attitudes, and customs and manners.
Language
A knowledge of the local language can help international business people in four ways. First, people can communicate directly. Second, people are usually more open in their communication with someone who speaks their language. Third, an understanding of the language allows people to infer meanings that are not said directly. Finally, knowing the language helps people to understand the culture better.
Values and attitudes
Values are people’s basic beliefs about the difference between right and wrong, good and bad. An attitude is a way of thinking or acting. Values and attitudes influence international business. For example, many people in the United States believe that chocolate from Switzerland is better than chocolate from other countries, and they buy a lot of it.
Customs and manners
Customs are common social practices. Manners are ways of acting that the society believes are polite. For example, in the United States, it is the custom to have salad (色拉)before the main course at dinner, not after. It’s not acceptable to talk with food in mouth at table. Failure to understand the customs and manners of other countries will bring difficulty selling their products. Orange juice as a breakfast drink of an American company in France doesn’t sell well because the French don’t usually drink juice with breakfast.
12. A knowledge of the local language allows international business people _________.
A. to be more open with their customers
B. to communicate without outside help
C. to express their thoughts indirectly
D. to have a better idea of their own culture
13. The act of many people buying chocolate of Switzerland shows the role of ________.
A. manners B. values C. attitudes D. customs
14. What would be the best title for the text
A. Misconceptions in Business B. Basic Beliefs in Business
C. International Business Culture D. Successful International Business
15. The author’s purpose of writing this article is to tell people ___________
A. how to take a right attitude in business
B. how to avoid misunderstandings in business
C. how to use a local language in business
D. how to act politely and properly in business
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文为一说明文，讲述了理解不同民族文化的重要性，并提出了几点建议，关于如何避免每个人心中由来已久的“民族优越感”。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由文章Language部分的“A knowledge of the local language can help international business people in four ways. First, people can communicate directly.（当地语言能从四个方面帮助国际商务人士。第一，人们可以直接交流）”可知，当地语言能帮助人们不需要外界帮助直接交流。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章Values and attitudes部分的“An attitude is a way of thinking or acting. For example, many people in the United States believe that chocolate from Switzerland is better than chocolate from other countries, and they buy a lot of it.（态度是一种思考和行动的方式。比如说，很多美国人认为瑞士的巧克力比其他国家要好一些，因此他们会买很多瑞士巧克力）”推知， 人们买瑞士巧克力的行为是一种态度的反应，故选C。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“To avoid ethnocentrism, it’s necessary to study the different elements (组成部分)of culture: language, values and attitudes, and customs and manners.（为了避免民族优越感，学习文化的组成部分是很重要的，主要由语言、价值和态度以及风俗和礼仪方面组成）”可知，本篇文章主要从语言、价值和态度、风俗和礼仪方面讲述了国际文化，以便商务人士在国际交流中更加成功。故C项“国际商务文化”符合本文标题，故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“ Successful people in international business understand the cultures of other countries and learn to change their practices in different cultures. They understand the importance of avoiding business decisions based on misconceptions—mistaken ideas.（国际商务中的成功人士了解其他国家的文化，并学会在不同的文化中改变自己的做法。他们理解避免基于误解或错误想法的商业决策的重要性）”结合下文从语言、价值和态度、风俗和礼仪方面讲述了国际文化推知，作者写这篇文章的主要目的是，告诉人们如何在国际交流中避免误解。故选B。

【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇记叙文，讲述了作者一不小心喜欢上赌博，他的父亲帮助他改掉这个坏习惯，最终，作者在学习上取得好成绩的事迹。
【详解】1. 考查定语从句。句意：两年前，我碰巧遇到了汤姆，他沉迷于赌博中。 “____was lost in gambling.”为定语从句，先行词为Tom，非限制性定语从句中缺少主语，表示人，故用关系代词who引导。故填who。
2. 考查介词。句意：在课堂上，我无法专注于老师所教的内容。focus on为固定短语，表示“集中于，专注于”。故填on。
3. 考查比较级。句意：结果，我的学习成绩越来越差。固定短语：from bad to worse“每况愈下，越来越糟”。 故填worse。
4. 考查冠词。句意：一开始，我们只是为了好玩而玩，但不久之后，我们就为了赌博而玩了。固定短语：at the beginning“在开始”，表特指。 故填the。
5. 考查it的用法。句意：这真的让我很开心，甚至很兴奋。替代前文中gambling，用it。故填It。
6. 考查动词时态和语态。句意：然而，我感到心烦意乱，因为我在赌博中输了不少钱。主语与lose之间关系为主动，时态强调这件事发生在felt upset之前，用过去完成时。故填had lost。
7. 考查名词性从句。句意：我父亲发现了发生在我身上的事，对我大喊大叫，说如果我不试图离开那些赌博的人，我就会坐牢。“_____ happened to me”为宾语从句，从句中缺少主语，指物，用连接代词what。故填what。
8. 考查状语从句。句意：我父亲发现了发生在我身上的事，对我大喊大叫，说如果我不试图离开那些赌博的人，我就会坐牢。根据句意可知，如果不离开赌博，会坐牢。空处表示“如果”引导条件状语从句，用if。故填if。
9. 考查非谓语动词。句意：他试图说服我回到学校，恳求我的班主任帮助我的学习。beg sb. to do sth.为固定短语，表示“乞求某人作某事”，不定式作宾语补足语。故填to help。
10. 考查非谓语动词。句意：听从他的劝告，我努力学习。分析句子，空处缺少非谓语动词，follow与主语I之间关系为主动，故用follow的现在分词形式作状语。故填Following。

I am so exciting that I can’t wait to share with you what I experienced today. I gave my first lesson in our school, that left me a deep impression. When I entered into the classroom, the students were making much noise. I stood at the door, not knew what to do at first. But soon I realized everything must be done. I asked the kids they liked the English songs. They all say “Yes”. I sang the English song. For my surprise, all the kids began to focus their attentions. All of them had a wonderful English lesson.
【答案】1.exciting→excited
2.that→which
3.去掉into
4.knew→knowing
5.everything→something
6.they前加if/whether
7.say→said
8.the→an
9.For→To
10.attentions→attention
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文，作者介绍了自己第一次给学生上课的经历。
【详解】1.考查形容词。句意：我太兴奋了，我迫不及待地想和你分享我今天的经历。主语I指人，应用形容词excited作表语，一般用于说明人，表达人的情感和感觉，exciting“令人兴奋的”一般用于说明事物，表示事物的性质或特征，故将exciting改为excited。
2.考查定语从句。句意：我在我们学校上了我的第一节课，给我留下了深刻的印象。引导非限制性定语从句，指代整个主句，用关系代词which，that不能引导非限制性定语从句，故将that改为which。
3.考查动词用法。句意：当我走进教室时，我的学生们开始吵闹起来。动词enter表示“进入”，为及物动词，后直接接宾语，介词into多余，故去掉into。
4.考查非谓语动词。句意：我站在站台上，起初不知道该怎么办。分析句子可知，know此处用非谓语动词作状语，know与逻辑主语I是主动关系，用现在分词形式作状语，此处为现在分词的否定式。故将knew改为knowing。
5.考查代词。句意：但很快我意识到必须做点什么。根据下文“I asked the kids…”可知，此处指“我意识到必须做点什么”，应用代词something，故将everything改为something。
6.考查宾语从句。句意：我问孩子们是否喜欢英文歌。结合句意及下文孩子们回答“是的”可知，此处指“我问孩子们是否喜欢英文歌”，用whether或if引导宾语从句，故they前加whether/if。
7.考查一般过去时。句意：他们都说：“是的”。结合上下文可知，文章是描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，故将say改为said。
8.考查冠词。句意：我唱了一首英文歌。此处泛指“一首英文歌”，且English以元音音素开头，故用不定冠词an，故将the改为an。
9.考查介词。句意：令我吃惊的是，所有的孩子都把注意力转向了我的课。To one’s surprise“令某人吃惊的是”是固定短语，故将For改为To。
10.考查名词。句意：令我吃惊的是，所有的孩子都把注意力转向了我的课。attention是不可数名词，没有复数形式，故将attentions改为attention。

【答案】One possible version:
Dear Jason,
I’d like to tell you about the “Network Class Plan” in my school.
This plan helps us a lot. Firstly, it enables us to communicate with each other. We can form several study groups, through which we are able to share some good learning materials. We can also post some of the difficulties that we meet in our studies on the school forum. It helps us to have a discussion about our studies. As a result, our grades improve. Last but not least, we can have some activities regularly to share our good learning experience. We all appreciate this “Network Class Plan”.
Do you have such a network class in your school
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
【解析】
【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。题目要求学生以李华的身份，给外国笔友Jason写一封电子邮件，向他介绍学校开展的“网络课堂”计划，需具体描述同学们进行的各种活动。

使某人能够做某事：enable sb. to do sth.→allow sb. to do sth.
组建：form→establish, found
遇到：meet→encounter, come across
因此：as a result→consequently, as a consequence
2. 句式拓展
合并简单句
原句：It helps us to have a discussion about our studies. As a result, our grades improve.
拓展句：It helps us to have a discussion about our studies, as a result of which, our grades improve.
