C. Social backgrounds. D. Physical condition.
4． I love football. I started playing football when I was nine years old. It helped make me who I am today. And even though I did not reach the National Football League, I sometimes think I got more from pursuing(追求) that dream. My romance with football started when my dad dragged me, kicking and screaming, to make me join a league. I had no desire to be there. I was naturally weak and the smallest kid by far. Fear turned to awe (敬畏) when I met my coach, Jim Graham, a huge guy. And he is really strict and old-school.
Coach Graham used to train me hard. I remember one practice in particular. "You're doing it all wrong, Pausch. Go back! Do it again!" I tried to do what he wanted. It wasn't enough. "You. owe me, Pausch! You're doing push-ups after practice."
When I was finally dismissed, one of the assistant coaches came up to me. "Coach Graham trained you pretty hard, didn't he " he said.
"Yeah."
"That's a good thing," the assistant told me. "When you're doing the bad and nobody says anything to you anymore, that means they've given up on you."
That conversation has influenced me in my whole life. When you see yourself doing something badly and nobody's willing to tell you anymore, that's a bad place to be. You may not want to hear it, but your critics (批评者) are often the ones telling you they still love you and care about you, and want to make you better.
There's a lot of talk these days about giving children self-esteem(自尊). It's not something you can give; it's something they have to build. Coach Graham knew there was really only one way to teach kids how to develop it: You give them something they can't do, and they work hard until they find they can do it, and you just keep repeating the process.
When Coach Graham first got hold of me, I was that weak kid with no skills and no physical strength. But he made me realize that if I work hard enough, there will be things I can do tomorrow and that I can't do today. I really felt grateful to Coach Graham for what he had done to me, though it surely didn't feel good at that time to do so many push-ups after practice.

A.Behind bad luck comes good luck. B.Never offer to teach fish to swim.
C.No pains, no gains. D.Where there is a will, there is a way.
5． When it comes to the most famous 20th century painters of the United States, Grandma Moses should be mentioned, although she did not start painting until she was in her late seventies. As she once said to herself, "I would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me." No one could have had a more active old age.
She was born on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls. At 12 she left home and was in domestic service until at 27, when she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers. They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge. She had ten children, five of whom survived; her husband died in 1927.
Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery (刺绣) pictures as a hobby, but only changed to oils in old age because her hands became too stiff (僵硬的) to sew and she still wanted to keep busy and pass the time. Her pictures were first sold at the local drugstore and at a market and were soon noticed by a businessman who bought all that she painted. Three of the pictures were exhibited(展览) in the Museum of Modem Art, and in 1940 she had her first exhibition in New York. Between the 1930s and her death, she produced some 2,000 pictures: careful and lively portrayals of the country life she had known for so long, with a wonderful sense of color and form. "I think really hard till I think of something really pretty, and then I paint it," she said.
1.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A.Moses and her children. B.Moses and her childhood.
C.An introduction to Moses's life. D.An introduction to Moses's marriage.
2.What did Grandma Moses spend most of her life doing
A.Embroidering. B.Painting. C.Nursing. D.Farming.
3.The underlined word "portrayals" in last paragraph means _______.
A.directions B.descriptions C.surveys D.stages
4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A.Grandma Moses and Her Pictures
B.Grandma Moses: A Woman Pioneer of the 20th Century
C.Grandma Moses and Her Exhibition
D.Grandma Moses: The Best Painter of the 20th Century

参考答案
1．答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据Course Description中"Each 3-week session carries 20 UK credits. Students are welcome to attend one or two sessions."可知,每个学段为三个星期,可以修20学分,学生可以选择参加一或者两个学段,因此修两个学段的学分为40分。故选C。
2．答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据How to Apply中"Apply before 1 May"可知,申请要求在五月一号之前,选项中只有A项符合要求。故选A。
3．答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据How to Apply中"Have a minimum 2.8 GPA(grade point average)", "Have finished high school", "Be 18 years old or older"可知,A项符合题意。故选A。
4．1-4.CBDC1-4.CBDC
解析：1.推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句"And he is really strict and old-school."可知,作者的足球教练是严格的和保守的;再根据倒数第二段中的"Coach Graham knew there was really only one way to teach kids how to develop it"可以推断Graham教练是明智的。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据倒数第三段最后一句中的"your critics(批评者) are often the ones telling you they still love you and care about you, and want to make you better"可知,作者认为批评你的那些人实际上是爱你、关心你,想要使你变得更好。故选B。
3.细节理解题。根据最后一段中的"But he made me realize that if I work hard enough, there will be things I can do tomorrow and that I can't do today."可知,Graham教练使作者意识到足够努力地做事就能做成你原来做不成的事情,也就是努力工作的价值,接着作者表达了对Graham教练的感激之情,由此可知其原因是D项。
4.主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的"But he made me realize that if I work hard enough, there will be things I can do tomorrow and that I can't do today."可知足够努力地工作能够使人将来做到今天做不到的事情,所以“没有付出就没有收获”是我们可以从本文学到的经验教训。故选C。
5．答案：1-4.CDBA
解析：1.主旨大意题。作者在第二段里介绍了Moses的生平,包括出生、家庭、婚姻和生活,故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段第三句"They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge."可知她和丈夫一生都以务农为主。故选D。
3.词义猜测题。根据本句"Between the 1930s and her death, she produced some 2,000 pictures: careful and lively portrayals of the country life she had known for so long, with a wonderful sense of color and form."可知,她两千多幅画里,主要描绘的是她所熟悉的乡村生活。"portrayals"是指对乡村生活的描述,故选B。
4.主旨大意题。本文是一篇人物传记类记叙文,介绍了20世纪美国著名的画家Grandma Moses的生平及作品信息。B项中pioneer与文章内容不符,C项只是部分内容,D项说法错误,文章并没有说她是20世纪最好的画家。故选A。
6．答案：ABGEC
解析：①空前说高中有许多地方都与你以前的学校环境不同,此处承接上文,讲的是在高中你会经历许多变化,A项中的many changes与空前的different呼应,故A项符合语境。
②空前说这些新老师(高中老师)通常比你的初中老师的学术水平更高,空后又说作为回报,他们希望你努力学习,发展自己的技能,因此空处讲的是高中老师会对你产生什么积极影响。B项中的They指代前面的"These new teachers",故B项(他们想帮助你考大学)符合语境。
③空前说另外,在高中,同龄人喝酒和抽烟的压力常常增加。此处承接上文,讲的还是关于压力的话题,故G项(此外,压力也可能来自成绩、孤独等等)符合语境。
④空前说如果做一些你觉得不对的事情你感到有压力,那就和朋友、父(母)亲或顾问谈谈,找出解决问题的办法。E项中的They指代前文的a friend, parent or counselor; get into this great new time指的是适应高中生活,与前文的压力相呼应,故E项符合语境。
⑤空后说随着时间的推移,你会对你经历的一切心存感激,C项(一开始,高中可能看起来让人沮丧)与空后形成对比,符合语境。
7．答案：GCDFA
解析：本文是一篇说明文。本文作者主要针对孩子们如何顺利地度过开学第一天介绍了一些窍门。
①根据设空前"Plan ahead the night before."(前一天晚上提前做准备),可知G项“你在第一天醒来之前,如果一切都准备好,你就不会那么焦虑了”承接上文。
②根据下文"Make sure your clothes are cleaned and pressed and that you've showered, brushed your teeth."可知设空处应说明选择什么样的衣服,所以C项“选择使你感觉好的衣服”符合语境。
③根据上文"If you're hoping to attract friends with similar interests, try wearing a shirt with your favorite show, musician, or sports team on it."可知作者说明了如何吸引有相同兴趣的朋友,所以D项“这可能是一种开始谈话和打破沉默的容易的方法”承接上文。
④上文"If you feel nervous, start by taking some deep breaths."和下文"You can listen to music that makes you feel calm or happy."都讲了缓解紧张的方法, 该空承上启下, F项“记住,每个人在某个时刻都是新人,这没什么大不了的”切题。
⑤本段主要讲了使用身势语,所以A项“使用你的身势语表现你的自信”符合本段话题,为本段的主题句。
8．答案： confidence
解析：句意为:他毫不犹豫地回答了我的问题,显示出他对自己的能力充满自信。设空处作showing的宾语,且被形容词性物主代词his 和形容词complete修饰,应用名词,表示“自信心;把握”,为不可数名词。故填confidence。
9．答案：to be built
解析：句意为:明年要建的新机场将会有效缓解我们城市严重的交通压力。解题思路句子成分可知,设空处作后置定语,修饰前面的名词airport,根据next year可知,此处表示将要进行的动作,应用不定式,且build 与 airport之间为逻辑上的被动关系,故用不定式的被动式。故填to be built。
