Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I always say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn’t want to keep him waiting.
When I just got to my office, the secretary showed in the man who had asked me for directions. Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight!

【分析】这篇短文中作者给我们介绍了他的学校。他的学校并没有很长的历史，也不大，但非常的美丽。作者还介绍了学校里的一些设施，如图书馆、操场、音乐厅等。
11．句意：我的学校不旧，因为它只有10年的历史。根据句意可知，后面这句话介绍学校并不旧的原因，故应填because，“因为”，引导原因状语从句。
12．句意：它并不大，有30个老师和400名学生。with是一个介词，意为“有，带有”，这里使用了with的复合结构，with+名词+介词短语。
13．句意：但是它是一个学习的好地方。study学习，是一个动词。a place to do sth.一个做某事的地方，这里应填动词不定式to study，在句中作定语，修饰名词place。
14．句意：校园里有很多树和花。这句话使用的是there be句型，表示“有…”，主语为many trees and flowers，故be动词用复数，填are。
15．句意：他们使我的学校非常美丽。根据上句话…many trees and flowers in it可知，这个空代指的是trees and flowers，故应用复数代词They，他们。
16．句意：在学校里散步真的令人很放松。relax放松，是一个动词。该空是句中的表语，应用形容词，且根据句意可知，这里表示“令人放松的”，故填relaxing。
17．句意：我们经常在那里踢足球，玩得非常开心。play玩，踢球，是一个动词。这句话中使用了句型have fun doing sth.做某事很开心，故应用动名词形式playing。
18．句意：在我的教室后面是图书馆，有各种各样的书。kind种类，是一个名词，空前有all修饰，故应填复数kinds。这里all kinds of是固定短语，“各种各样的”。
19．句意：我们经常去那里读书。read阅读，是一个动词。根据句意可知，这个空表示去图书馆的目的，应用动词不定式做目的状语，故填to read。
20．句意：在我的教室前面有一个音乐厅。这里考查固定短语in front of…，意为“在…前面”，故应填of。
【点睛】这篇短文中作者介绍了他的学校。短文主题非常明确，内容贴近教材和学生们的日常生活，非常容易理解。题型是填写适当的单词或用所给单词的适当形式填空，考查学生们
在具体语境中使用单词、短语的能力。考查形式有两种，一种是直接填空，这种题型主要以考查介词、冠词、连词、代词的用法为主，如第1小题、第2小题、第5小题和第10小题。另外一种考查形式是给出提示词，我们应用它的正确形式填空，这种题型以考查实词用法为主，如名词的单复数、动词的时态、语态、非谓语动词、形容词、副词以及比较级和最高级的用法等。例如第3小题，考查动词不定式作后置定语，a place to do sth.一个做某事的地方，是固定句型。再如第8小题，考查名词复数， all kinds of是固定短语，“各种各样的”。

Saturday星期六；Sunday星期天；Friday星期五；Thursday星期四。根据“My birthday is on Friday.”及“On Friday, the party starts at 6:00 p.m.”可知，Cassie的生日聚会是在周五晚上。故选C。
22．句意：但找到我的位置并不容易，所以现在我想告诉你去我家的路。
very非常；much许多，修饰不可数名词；not不；many许多，修饰可数名词。根据后面的“so now I want to tell you the way to my home”可知，Cassie的家并不好找。故选C。
23．句意：这儿有一张地图。
book 书；map地图；street街道；newspaper报纸。根据“It can help...”及下文的路线介绍可知，这里指地图。故选B。
24．句意：它可以帮助你。

【点睛】这篇短文中介绍了德国这个国家以及去那里旅行应注意的一些问题。文章主题明确，内容贴近日常生活，比较容易理解。后面的题目设置有细节理解题和主旨大意题。细节题考查学生们对文章某处事实信息的理解，答案常可以直接在原文找到。做题时，应注意根据题目所问或利用关键词，定位文章相关语句作答；主旨大意题则需要注意寻找主题句或依据全篇文章的内容作答。例如第1小题，题目问的是德国南面是什么国家，利用south这一关键词可以迅速定位到文章第一段最后一句话，由此可知答案。第5小题询问文章的出处，其实是通过掌握文章大意来进行选择，这篇短文给我们介绍了德国这个国家，并对想要去德国旅游的人提出了一些建议。文章是与旅行有关的，故在C选项“旅游指南”中能看到这样的文章。

Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I always say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn’t want to keep him waiting.
