【原文】Many of us already know about several American superstitions. Having a black cat cross your path, walking under a ladder, and breaking a mirror are all bad luck. In addition to these, there are many other superstitions that are worth knowing. Understanding them will keep you safe from evil spirits—if you believe in such things—and impress your American friends when you mention them.
Like the superstitions in other cultures, American superstitions often involve the things important in daily life, such as health, numbers and marriage. For example, have you ever had a cough that would not go away According to one American superstition, you should take a piece of hair and put it between two slices of buttered bread. Next, feed this hair sandwich to a dog and say, “Eat well, you hound, may you be sick and I am sound.” This will trick the evil spirits and help your cough. It will also raise eyebrows if you try it.
Questions:
14. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as bad luck in the passage
15. Why is it important to know some American superstitions
16. How do they get rid of a bad cough in American superstition

Wimbledon is the most important sporting event of the British summer. Since the first tournament (锦标赛) was played in 1877, the competition has become a global sporting event attended by over half a million people, and watched on television by millions.
Although the Wimbledon tennis championship (锦标赛) has been around for more than a century, the sport of tennis has a much longer history. Most experts agree that the modern game has its origins in a courtyard ball game played by French monks in the 11th century.
Much has changed since the first Wimbledon Tournament in 1877. The first champion, Spencer Gore, won a prize of 12;this year the prize money is 630,000. Indeed, success in tennis championships is a very profitable (有收益的) business. 2004 Wimbledon champion, Roger Federer has won nearly $17,000,000 in prize money since 1998. Even more impressive, Serena and Venus Williams have won $30,000,000 between them over the last ten years.
Although Wimbledon has traditionally been dominated by Americans and Europeans, other countries are beginning to produce world-class players. Zheng Jie and Yan Zi won China’s first Wimbledon title on July 9, 2006. They beat Virginia Ruano Pascual of Spain and Paola Suarez of Argentina in the women’s doubles final.
In the future all Chinese competitors will be under pressure to do well; their coach, Jiang Hongwei, has gone on record as saying, “My goal is to lift my players into the top 30.”
28.Where is the origin of the modern tennis game
A.Germany. B.China. C.Britain. D.France.
29.Who won the least money in the championship according to the text
A.Spencer Gore. B.Roger Federer. C.Serena. D.Zheng Jie.
30.What does the underlined word “dominated” mean in Paragraph 4
A.Controlled. B.Attended. C.Accepted. D.Arranged.
31.What is the author’s purpose of writing the text
A.To explain the history of the Wimbledon Tournament.
B.To give an introduction to the Wimbledon Tournament.
C.To show the development of the Wimbledon Tournament.
D.To discuss the importance of the Wimbledon Tournament.
【答案】28.D 29.A 30.A 31.C
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍温布尔登网球公开赛的发展。
28.细节理解题。根据第二段“Although the Wimbledon tennis championship (锦标赛) has been around for more than a century, the sport of tennis has a much longer history. Most experts agree that the modern game has its origins in a courtyard ball game played by French monks in the 11th century. (尽管温布尔登网球锦标赛已经存在了一个多世纪,但网球运动的历史要悠久得多。大多数专家都认为现代比赛起源于11世纪法国僧侣玩的庭院球赛。)”可知,现代网球运动起源于11世纪法国僧侣玩的庭院球赛。故选D。
29.细节理解题。根据第三段“Much has changed since the first Wimbledon Tournament in 1877. The first champion, Spencer Gore, won a prize of 12;this year the prize money is 630,000. Indeed, success in tennis championships is a very profitable (有收益的) business. 2004 Wimbledon champion, Roger Federer has won nearly $17,000,000 in prize money since 1998. Even more impressive, Serena and Venus Williams have won $30,000,000 between them over the last ten years. (自1877年第一届温布尔登锦标赛以来,情况发生了很大变化。第一位冠军Spencer Gore获得了12英镑的奖金;今年的奖金是63万英镑。事实上,网球锦标赛的成功是一项非常有利可图的事业。2004年温网冠军罗杰·费德勒自1998年以来已赢得近17000000美元的奖金。更令人印象深刻的是,小威和维纳斯·威廉姆斯在过去十年中赢得了3000万美元的奖金。)”可知,第一位冠军Spencer Gore的奖金最少,只有12英镑。故选A。
30.词句猜测题。根据第四段“Although Wimbledon has traditionally been dominated by Americans and Europeans, other countries are beginning to produce world-class players. (尽管温布尔登网球公开赛传统上由美国人和欧洲人dominated,但其他国家也开始培养出世界级的选手。)”可知,这里讲述除了美国人和欧洲人,但其他国家也开始培养出世界级的选手,但是最早的举办是在美国和欧洲,所以应该是他们主宰这项运动,dominate的意思应该是“主宰,控制”,和选项A意思一致。故选A。
31.推理判断题。根据第一段“Wimbledon is the most important sporting event of the British summer. Since the first tournament (锦标赛) was played in 1877, the competition has become a global sporting event attended by over half a million people, and watched on television by millions. (温布尔登网球公开赛是英国夏季最重要的体育赛事。自1877年举办第一届锦标赛以来,这项比赛已成为一项全球体育赛事,有50多万人参加,数百万人在电视上观看。)”, 第四段“Although Wimbledon has traditionally been dominated by Americans and Europeans, other countries are beginning to produce world-class players. (尽管温布尔登网球公开赛传统上由美国人和欧洲人主宰,但其他国家也开始培养出世界级的选手。)”和最后一段“In the future all Chinese competitors will be under pressure to do well; their coach, Jiang Hongwei, has gone on record as saying, “My goal is to lift my players into the top 30.”(在未来,所有的中国竞争对手都将面临压力,要求他们做得好;他们的教练蒋宏伟公开表示:“我的目标是让我的球员进入前30名。”)”可知,这篇文章主要讲述温布尔登网球公开赛的发展。故选C。
D
Fears over the disruption (干扰) to classrooms from pupils using smartphones have made the government decide to carry out research into the way technology affects behaviour in schools.
Children should not be allowed to use smartphones until they are 16, according to Tom Bennett, the school behaviour expert leading the research. “Children are using smartphones too young,” he said. People ask me, “When should I give my child a smartphone ” and I say “Whenever you’re comfortable with them viewing violence, because their curiosity (好奇心) will take them there.” According to him, teachers should not allow them unless necessary.
Mr. Bennett is already leading another study into how teachers are trained to deal with bad behaviour. He has now been asked to look at the wider challenges of managing modern classrooms. Although technology can improve learning, teachers have reported that the growing number of children bringing smartphones into class is leading to disruption, officials warn.
“We need to make sure the advice we give to schools, and the methods being used are fit for the 21st century when even primary school pupils may be bringing in phones. That is why we have taken the decision to widen Tom Bennett’s research to look at how teachers can deal with bad behaviour,” said Nick Gibb, Minister of State for Schools.
Most schools have some policies about smartphone use. However, the picture is far from uniform (统一的) — from complete bans (禁止) to partial bans. “I think smartphones in a classroom may be a temptation (诱惑) for students, but that isn’t to say that I would ban them. ”said Mr. Bennett. “My personal advice is that schools should think very carefully before allowing them. I think the basic rule should be not to allow them unless teachers invite them in for a certain reason.”
32.Why was the research started
A.To find out the advantages of technology.
B.To learn about children’s behaviour in class.
C.To look at how smartphones affect kids at school.
D.To prevent children from using smartphones in class.
33.Why did Nick widen Bennett’s research
A.To look into students’ behaviour at home.
B.To change parents’ attitudes to smartphones.
C.To encourage children to attend modern classrooms.
D.To make sure that schools use proper methods to teach students.
34.What can we infer from the last paragraph
A.Many pupils use smartphones for learning.
B.Schools have to try harder to ban smartphone use.
C.Students always have a good reason to use smartphones.
D.Different schools have different policies about smartphone use.
35.What is Bennett’s attitude towards pupils’ using smartphones in a classroom
A.It is helpful in teaching.
B.Schools should take it seriously.
C.It should be banned completely.
D.There should be a uniform rule.
【答案】32.C 33.D 34.D 35.B
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了学生是否可以在学校使用手机的问题。
【详解】32.细节理解题。根据第一段“Fears over the disruption (干扰) to classrooms from pupils using smartphones have made the government decide to carry out research into the way technology affects behaviour in schools.(由于担心使用智能手机的学生会扰乱教室,政府决定对科技影响学校行为的方式进行研究)”可知,这个研究是为了了解学生在学校使用手机给他们带来的影响。故选C。
33.推理判断题。根据第四段中Nick所说的话“We need to make sure the advice we give to schools, and the methods being used are fit for the 21st century when even primary school pupils may be bringing in phones. That is why we have taken the decision to widen Tom Bennett’s research to look at how teachers can deal with bad behaviour,(我们需要确保我们给学校的建议,以及正在使用的方法是适合21世纪的,当时甚至小学生可能带来电话。这就是为什么我们决定扩大Tom Bennett的研究范围,研究教师如何处理不良行为)”可推知,他们拓展Bennett的研究是为了确保学校的教育方式是合理的、与时俱进的。故选D。
34.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Most schools have some policies about smartphone use. However, the picture is far from uniform (统一的) — from complete bans (禁止) to partial bans. (大多数学校都有一些关于智能手机使用的政策。然而,从完全禁止到部分禁止,情况远非一致)”可推知,学校针对学生在校使用手机的政策各不相同。故选D。
35.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的““My personal advice is that schools should think very carefully before allowing them. I think the basic rule should be not to allow them unless teachers invite them in for a certain reason.(“我个人的建议是,商学院在允许这种做法之前,应该非常仔细地考虑。我认为基本的规则应该是,除非老师出于某种原因邀请他们进来,否则不允许他们进来)”可推知,Bennett认为学校应该对学生是否可以在学校使用手机一事慎重考虑。故选B。

Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel you are already close friends. They are always good talkers.
Here are several skills that good talkers have in common. If you follow the skills, they’ll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly. 36
First of all,good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. 37 ” From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. 38 . Second,once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers . Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully .
Real listening at least means some things. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he’s really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. 39
Finally, good talkers know well how to “say goodbye”.If you’re saying goodbye, you may give him a firm handshake and say,“I’ve really enjoyed meeting you.” 40 .Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away,happy and satisfied.
A.You can become a popular person.
B.You’d better change the subject if the voice sounds dull.
C.Don’t be afraid to say so if you want to see that person again.
D.Although the question is common,it will get things going.
E.It’s polite to listen to others with a smile.
F.And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.

67.读后续写
For many years I have been feeling pity for orphans(孤儿)。They lack the love of their parents and need the love and help of others. So I am doing what I can to help them. I visited them many times to experience their daily life.
Three years ago I even lived with the orphans on the street. These kids would mostly beg through the day to buy some food for themselves or eat the food given to them by the people passing by. One unusual incident happened during my second week of staying with them on the sidewalk.
I sat with them and shared the meal I had bought for them from a nearby restaurant. They sat with me in a circle and happily started eating. Suddenly one of them,a twelve-year-old boy,caught my hand,looked at me and removed my watch. I neither refused nor said a word. This boy suddenly ran away with my watch,and I continued eating the meal without turning around to see where the little boy ran with my watch.
After about forty-five minutes he showed up and sat beside me again. I just looked at him and smiled without saying anything about the watch. The little boy took a small packet from his pocket,opened it,had a bite of the bread and offered the same bread to me. I took it and ate it willingly. As soon as I finished eating the bread,a smile appeared on his face. Slowly he put his hand in his pocket and returned my watch. I smiled at him and wore my watch once again. The little boy later on told me that I passed the test.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I was a little surprised and asked him what test I passed.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
Then I asked him why he gave me food to eat.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
【答案】I was a little surprised and asked him that test I passed. He told me that he took the watch and ran away to see my reaction and for that good forty-five minutes he was hiding in a building and watching my expressions. He said that I simply kept quiet. There was no sign of anger or disappointment on my face. Nor did I start to catch up with him angrily. He said that meant I was generous and regarded him as one of my family members.
Then I asked him why he gave me food to eat. He told me that when I gave them something to eat, they ate happily so he wanted to see whether I was happy to eat what he gave me. I happily ate the food he gave me in his presence. He was greatly moved and felt that I did not mind his dirt. I am one of them. I realized these kids are hungry for love and trust.
【分析】这是一篇读后续写。本文以作者帮助孤儿的过程中遇到的一件手表被一孤儿抢去的小事为线索展开,讲述了作者无意间以自己的真心帮助孤儿、视他们为自己家人一样的无私大爱而通过了这群孤儿对他的考验的故事,从而真正融入他们群体中。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“我有点吃惊,问他我通过了什么测试。”可知,第一段可描写这位孤儿给他什么测试,他为什么要对我测试,以及我是怎么通过该测试的。
②由第二段首句内容“然后我问他他为什么要给我食物吃。”可知,第二段可描写通过分享食物过程产生的内心感受,以及孤儿内心对真爱与被信任的渴望。
2.续写线索:感到惊呀——告知 ——我的表情——通过——分享食物——不嫌脏乐意接受—渴望真爱与信任。
3.词汇激活

Wimbledon is the most important sporting event of the British summer. Since the first tournament (锦标赛) was played in 1877, the competition has become a global sporting event attended by over half a million people, and watched on television by millions.
Although the Wimbledon tennis championship (锦标赛) has been around for more than a century, the sport of tennis has a much longer history. Most experts agree that the modern game has its origins in a courtyard ball game played by French monks in the 11th century.
Much has changed since the first Wimbledon Tournament in 1877. The first champion, Spencer Gore, won a prize of 12;this year the prize money is 630,000. Indeed, success in tennis championships is a very profitable (有收益的) business. 2004 Wimbledon champion, Roger Federer has won nearly $17,000,000 in prize money since 1998. Even more impressive, Serena and Venus Williams have won $30,000,000 between them over the last ten years.
Although Wimbledon has traditionally been dominated by Americans and Europeans, other countries are beginning to produce world-class players. Zheng Jie and Yan Zi won China’s first Wimbledon title on July 9, 2006. They beat Virginia Ruano Pascual of Spain and Paola Suarez of Argentina in the women’s doubles final.
In the future all Chinese competitors will be under pressure to do well; their coach, Jiang Hongwei, has gone on record as saying, “My goal is to lift my players into the top 30.”
28.Where is the origin of the modern tennis game
A.Germany. B.China. C.Britain. D.France.
29.Who won the least money in the championship according to the text

Fears over the disruption (干扰) to classrooms from pupils using smartphones have made the government decide to carry out research into the way technology affects behaviour in schools.
Children should not be allowed to use smartphones until they are 16, according to Tom Bennett, the school behaviour expert leading the research. “Children are using smartphones too young,” he said. People ask me, “When should I give my child a smartphone ” and I say “Whenever you’re comfortable with them viewing violence, because their curiosity (好奇心) will take them there.” According to him, teachers should not allow them unless necessary.
Mr. Bennett is already leading another study into how teachers are trained to deal with bad behaviour. He has now been asked to look at the wider challenges of managing modern classrooms. Although technology can improve learning, teachers have reported that the growing number of children bringing smartphones into class is leading to disruption, officials warn.
“We need to make sure the advice we give to schools, and the methods being used are fit for the 21st century when even primary school pupils may be bringing in phones. That is why we have taken the decision to widen Tom Bennett’s research to look at how teachers can deal with bad behaviour,” said Nick Gibb, Minister of State for Schools.
Most schools have some policies about smartphone use. However, the picture is far from uniform (统一的) — from complete bans (禁止) to partial bans. “I think smartphones in a classroom may be a temptation (诱惑) for students, but that isn’t to say that I would ban them. ”said Mr. Bennett. “My personal advice is that schools should think very carefully before allowing them. I think the basic rule should be not to allow them unless teachers invite them in for a certain reason.”
32.Why was the research started
A.To find out the advantages of technology.
B.To learn about children’s behaviour in class.
C.To look at how smartphones affect kids at school.
D.To prevent children from using smartphones in class.
33.Why did Nick widen Bennett’s research
A.To look into students’ behaviour at home.
B.To change parents’ attitudes to smartphones.
C.To encourage children to attend modern classrooms.
D.To make sure that schools use proper methods to teach students.
34.What can we infer from the last paragraph
A.Many pupils use smartphones for learning.
B.Schools have to try harder to ban smartphone use.
C.Students always have a good reason to use smartphones.
D.Different schools have different policies about smartphone use.
35.What is Bennett’s attitude towards pupils’ using smartphones in a classroom
A.It is helpful in teaching.
B.Schools should take it seriously.
C.It should be banned completely.
D.There should be a uniform rule.

One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. 37 ” From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. 38 . Second,once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers . Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to.

67.读后续写
For many years I have been feeling pity for orphans(孤儿)。They lack the love of their parents and need the love and help of others. So I am doing what I can to help them. I visited them many times to experience their daily life.
Three years ago I even lived with the orphans on the street. These kids would mostly beg through the day to buy some food for themselves or eat the food given to them by the people passing by. One unusual incident happened during my second week of staying with them on the sidewalk.
I sat with them and shared the meal I had bought for them from a nearby restaurant. They sat with me in a circle and happily started eating. Suddenly one of them,a twelve-year-old boy,caught my hand,looked at me and removed my watch. I neither refused nor said a word. This boy suddenly ran away with my watch,and I continued eating the meal without turning around to see where the little boy ran with my watch.
After about forty-five minutes he showed up and sat beside me again. I just looked at him and smiled without saying anything about the watch. The little boy took a small packet from his pocket,opened it,had a bite of the bread and offered the same bread to me. I took it and ate it willingly. As soon as I finished eating the bread,a smile appeared on his face. Slowly he put his hand in his pocket and returned my watch. I smiled at him and wore my watch once again. The little boy later on told me that I passed the test.
