A
When
Mary
Moore
began
her
high
school
in
1951，her
mother
told
her，“Be
sure
and
take
a
typing
course
so
when
this
show
business
thing
doesn't
work
out，you'll
have
something
to
rely
on.”
Mary
responded
in
typical
teenage
fashion.
From
that
moment
on，“the
very
last
thing
I
ever
thought
about
doing
was
taking
a
typing
course，”she
recalls.
The
show
business
thing
worked
out，of
course.
In
her
career，Mary
won
many
awards.
Only
recently，when
she
began
to
write
Growing
UP
Again，did
she
regret
ignoring
her
mom.
“I
don't
know
how
to
use
a
computer，”she
admits.
Unlike
her
1995
autobiography，after
all，her
second
book
is
less
about
life
as
an
award
winning
actress
and
more
about
living
with
diabetes(糖尿病)．All
the
money
from
the
book
is
intended
for
the
Juvenile
Diabetes
Research
Foundation(JDRF)，an
organization
she
serves
as
international
chairman.
“I
felt
there
was
a
need
for
a
book
like
this，”she
says.“I
didn't
want
to
lecture，but
I
wanted
other
diabetics
to
know
that
things
get
better
when
we're
self
controlled
and
do
our
part
in
managing
the
disease.”
But
she
hasn't
always
practiced
what
she
teaches.
In
her
book，she
describes
that
awful
day，almost
40
years
ago，when
she
received
two
pieces
of
life
changing
news.
First
，she
had
lost
the
baby
she
was
carrying，and
second，tests
showed
that
she
had
diabetes.
In
a
childlike
act，she
left
the
hospital
and
treated
herself
to
a
box
of
doughnuts(甜甜圈)．Years
would
pass
before
she
realized
she
had
to
grow
up
again
and
take
control
of
her
diabetes，not
let
it
control
her.
Only
then
did
she
kick
her
three
pack
a
day
cigarette
habit，overcome
her
addiction
to
alcohol，and
begin
to
follow
a
balanced
diet.
Although
her
disease
has
affected
her
eyesight
and
forced
her
to
the
sidelines
of
the
dance
floor，she
refuses
to
fall
into
self
pity.“Everybody
on
earth
can
ask，‘why
me？’about
something
or
other，”she
insists.
“It
doesn't
do
any
good.
No
one
is
immune(免疫的)to
heartache，pain，and
disappointments.
Sometimes
we
can
make
things
better
by
helping
others.
I've
come
to
realize
the
importance
of
that
as
I've
grown
up
this
second
time.
I
want
to
speak
out
and
be
as
helpful
as
I
can
be.”
36．Why
did
Mary
feel
regretful？
A．She
didn't
achieve
her
ambition.
B．She
didn't
take
care
of
her
mother.
C．She
didn't
complete
her
high
school.
D．She
didn't
follow
her
mother's
advice.

two
books
published

awards

I
was
a
policeman.
It
was
6∶00
pm
and
I
was
starting
working
a
twelve
hour
shift.
I
said
goodbye
to
a
group
of
officers
heading
out
of
the
station
to
go
home.
“Yeah，have
a
good
time，”shouted
an
officer，sounding
tired.
Just
then，an
officer
I
was
working
with
said
to
me，“There
is
a
fire
at
a
grocery
store.
Our
task
is
to
assist
other
units
already
there.
Come
on；let's
go.”
He
walked
towards
our
car.
Our
team
left
the
station
and
arrived
ten
minutes
later
at
the
grocery
store.
We
took
up
a
position
in
the
parking
lot
to
try
to
keep
people
away
from
the
store.
The
building
was
starting
to
disappear
in
flames
and
smoke.I_didn't_know_what_to_do.I_just_stood_there_staring_as_if_I_were_watching_a_horror_movie.All
of
a
sudden，a
loud
explosion
shook
the
ground
and
everyone
fell
down.
Something
in
the
alleyway(小巷)
at
the
back
of
the
store
blew
up
and
a
large
mushroom
fire
cloud
rose
into
the
sky.
As
the
cloud
grew
larger，it
began
swallowing
everything
in
sight，including
the
parking
lot.
As
I
got
up
and
ran
for
cover
as
everyone
else
did，smoke
and
dirt
rained
down
on
us.
After
clearing，we
went
close
to
the
store
to
help
in
our
car.
“There
is
a
man
yelling
for
help，”the
driver
officer
said，so
we
pulled
over
to
assist
him.
“There
are
people
still
inside，”the
man
shouted.
We
quickly
helped
dozens
of
people
to
safety.
During
our
rescue，another
partner
found
a
garden
hose(水龙带)，so
we
started
to
try
to
put
out
the
fire
below
the
building.
After
half
an
hour，the
fire
was
put
out
at
last.
“Everyone
is
out
of
the
building.
Let's
go
on
to
our
other
tasks！”shouted
an
officer.

C
She
was
born
to
wealth
and
power
in
an
era
when
money
and
politics
were
left
to
the
men.
Later，as
The
Washington
Post's
publisher，Katharine
Graham
became
one
of
America's
most
powerful
women.
Despite
a
privileged
background，Katharine
had
to
deal，while
growing
up，with
the
high
demands
her
mother
placed
on
her
children.
Katharine's
love
of
journalism，which
she
shared
with
her
father，led
to
her
career
(事业)
after
college
at
The
Washington
Post，the
newspaper
her
father
bought
in
1933.At
the
Post，Katharine
met
Phil
Graham，a
young，charming
lawyer
who
became
her
husband.
When，in
1945，Katharine's
father
chose
Phil
over
her
to
take
over
his
struggling
paper，Katharine
didn't
object
and
stayed
at
home
as
a
wife
and
mother
of
four.
While
Phil's
successful
efforts
to
restore
the
Post
to
prominence
made
the
Grahams
popular
members
of
the
Washington
social
scene，Katharine
privately
suffered
tremendous
pain
from
her
husband's
increasingly
abusive
behavior
and
wild
mood
swings
caused
by
severe
depression.
When
Phil
committed
suicide(自杀)，the
46?year?old
Katharine
found
herself
thrown
into
a
new
job，that
of
newspaper
publisher.
But
determined
to
save
the
family
paper
for
her
children，Katharine
rose
to
the
challenge
of
running
the
Post，attending
meetings
in
every
department，working
endlessly
to
prove
herself
to
her
critics，and
becoming
the
toast
of
Washington.
In
1971，Katharine
ordered
the
Post
to
print
a
copy
of
the
Pentagon
Papers，the
top-secret
documents
revealing
the
truth
about
the
United
States'
involvement
in
the
Vietnam
War.
What's
more，her
courageous
decision
and
support
for
her
journalists
prepared
the
Post
to
break
the
most
important
political
story
in
modern
history：Watergate(水门事件)，one
of
the
greatest
scandals
(丑闻)
in
American
political
history.
Katharine
managed
to
keep
control
over
the
most
chaotic
of
situations
when
it
was
reported，all
the
time
insisting
the
news
stories
be
accurate
and
fair.
Watergate
made
the
Washington
Post
an
internationally
known
Paper
and
Katharine
was
considered
as
the
most
powerful
woman
in
America.
46．Katharine
Graham
was
born
in
a
time
when
________.
A．women
were
not
given
the
chance
to
receive
education
B．women

not
considered
as
intelligent
as

C．women
were
not
permitted
to
achieve
their
goals
D．women
were
not
allowed
to
enter
every
field

her
husband
was
chosen
to
take
charge
of
the
newspaper，Katharine
Graham
________.

strongly
against
the
idea

not
happy

be

willing
to
take
her
share

综合检测
1．B　talk
about“谈论，谈起”；go
about“着手(做某事)，从事”；care
about“关心”；come
about“产生，发生”。根据句意“由于他们的试验失败了，我们必须更加谨慎地进行试验。”可知选B。
2．D　分析句子结构可知，is是系动词，其后为表语从句，从句中do为及物动词，所以从句缺宾语，故选what。
3．C　carried
out为过去分词短语在句中作see的宾语补足语。see
sth.
done结构意为“看见某事被做”。
4．B　set
up建立，创办；set
down写下，记下；set
about着手做；set
off出发，动身。根据前一句“她是个勤奋的学生”可以推断后一句应是“她总是将老师讲的重点记下来”，所以选B。
5．A　句意：虽然一位成功的商人或发明家通常会变得富有，但许多在自己的领域中杰出的人对个人财产并不太关心。while在此引导让步状语从句，意为“虽然”。
6．A　由with
her
eyes
________
on
the
opposite
wall可看出，填空处做with的复合宾语，排除C、D。fix和eyes是动宾关系，所以要用fixed，过去分词表示被动。
7．A　句意：在这么短的时间他几乎不能完成这么多工作。get
through“完成”；get
off“下车”；get
into“进入”；get
down“下来”。
8．D　考查倒装。表方位的介词短语under
a
big
tree位于句首，句子应用完全倒装，不用助动词，因而选择D项。
9．A　考查形容词词义辨析。根据语境“只买我们能买得起和需要的”可知，买东西时要实际一些。
10．B　考查暗喻及介词的用法。此处把生活比作是一条曲线，“充满”应该用full
of来表示，故选B项。
11．C　句意：一般来说，北方人爱吃饺子，南方人爱吃米饭。in
common“共同地”；in
total“整个地”；in
general“一般地”；in
particular“特别地”。
12．C　考查短语辨析。句意：今天早晨的雾太大了以至于司机们几乎不能看清前面十米远的物体。figure
out想出，算出，理解；take
out拿出，带……出去；make
out看出，辨认出；rule
out消除。
13．B　考查动词辨析。support支持，符合句意。consider考虑；agree同意；confirm证实，均不符合句意。
14．A　考查副词短语。more
than＋adj.表示“非常，很”的意思，此处是很高兴；other
than意思是“不同于，除了”；rather
than意思是“胜过，而不是”；less
than少于，决不。
15．A　从语境得知，对方在道歉，只能用
That's
all
right/It
doesn't
matter/Never
mind(没关系)等回答；It's
a
pleasure/You
are
welcome/Don't
mention
it
都是回答
Thank
you
的用语。
16．C　服务员向年轻人解释玫瑰花非常“昂贵”，不是六美元可以买得到的。此处讲的是价格问题，而不是玫瑰花的象征意义，因此D项不恰当。
17．B　年轻人乞求的声音“触动”了约翰的内心，此处touch表示“触动”。recall表示“回想，回忆”，主语一般是人。
18.
B　约翰努了努嘴，向服务员示意他将替年轻人支付(购买玫瑰花)不足的钱，由于他只是用嘴示意，因而是“无声地”。
19．B　年轻人的目的是购买鲜花，自然是拿着“鲜花”跑出了商店。
20．A　约翰订购了自己的鲜花，并委托服务员在“送”花时要附上一张便条，表达他对母亲无比的爱意。transfer表示“转移，移交”，语意不恰当。
21．C　约翰已经委托服务员把鲜花送给他的母亲，并叮嘱对方要附上一张便条，由此可见他自认为已经办妥了一切，自我感觉“良好”。文章中没有提到他之前感到紧张，所以A项不恰当。
22．B　他遇到了红灯，自然要在红绿灯处“等候”。
23．B　上文提到他遇到红灯后停了下来，由此可推断此时红灯“变”成了绿灯，他缓缓驶过交叉点。
24．B　他一时冲动，想跟踪男孩，所以把车停到路边。此处pull
over表示“把车停靠在路边”。break
down表示“出故障，崩溃”；burst
out表示“突然开始做某事”，后面需要跟宾语。
25．A　男孩小心翼翼地把玫瑰花“摆放”在坟墓上，失声痛哭起来。B项表示“装饰”，通常用于喜庆场合。
26．C　约翰没有想到男孩倾其所有购买玫瑰花是为了祭奠他的母亲，感动得“泪流满面”。
27．C　约翰告诉服务员他想亲自把花“带”给他的母亲。A项表示“带来”，显然不正确；B项表示“去拿来”，不符合语境。
28．Instead　29.fewer　30.It　31.However　32.Second　33.If
34．an/the/your　35.and
36．D　推理判断题。第一段中提到Mary
Moore的妈妈建议她学打字，而第二段中她承认自己还不会使用电脑，由此可知她后悔自己没有听妈妈的建议。故答案为D项。
37．B　推理判断题。根据第三段得知，Mary在1995年的自传中主要介绍自己成功的演艺事业，而近期所写的第二本著作主要介绍她身患糖尿病的生活，她打算把这本书的收入都捐给JDRF，由此可知1995年前她只写了一本书而不是两本，故排除A项；依靠写作来支持JDRF是在1995年之后，故可排除D项；根据第二段的最后一句话可排除C项。故答案为B项。
38．A　事实细节题。根据第三段首句可知，第二本书与1995年的那本自传不同，这本书主要是关于Mary身患糖尿病的生活经历，故答案为A项。B项“她成功的演艺事业”应该是第一本自传的内容，故可排除。C、D两项均不是书的内容，可排除。
39．A　推理判断题。根据第二段可得知，Mary
想通过自己的书告诫那些患糖尿病的人，自我控制才会使情况变得更好，但第三段提到她自己并未那样去做，并且讲到了她在得到令生活改变的噩耗时的反应，由此可知那时她失去了控制，故答案为A项。
40．C　推理判断题。根据本段最后一句话可得知，Mary
想尽其所能来帮助他人，故答案为C项。根据本段第一句话可排除A项和B项，D项“Mary决定返回舞池”文中并未提到，因此可排除。
41．D　主旨大意题。通读全文，可知作者主要记录了他作为警察，在一次执行任务中的经历，故选D项。
42．C　细节理解题。根据第一段的It
was
6∶00
pm
and
I
was
starting
working
a
twelve?hour
shift.可知作者接到那个任务的时候，他才刚开始那晚的晚班。
43．D　推理判断题。根据画线部分的内容，可知作者面对大火不知该做些什么，只能盯着大火，故可推断他没有应付这种大火的经验。
44．D　细节理解题。根据第三段的Something
in
the
alleyway
at
the
back
of
the
store
blew
up可知应选D项。
45．C　细节理解题。根据第四段的so
we
started
to
try
to
put
out
the
fire
below
the
building.可知作者他们只是拿着水龙带在楼底下救火，并没有冲进大楼里去，故选C项。
46．D　细节理解题。根据文章第一段可以看出当时的美国社会是男性占主导地位的时代，女性在很多领域都不能涉足。
47．C　细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“...Katharine
didn't
object
and
stayed
at
home
as
a
wife
and
mother
of
four.”可知。
48．A　细节理解题。根据文章最后一段最后一句“Watergate
made
the
Washington
Post
an
internationally
known
paper...most
powerful
woman
in
America”。
49．B　细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句可知，从文章可以知道她的丈夫取得一定的成绩并且因为绝望而自杀可以判断A、C两项错误。
50．C　确定文章标题。从文章的第一段就可以看出Katharine是如何从家庭主妇到成为华盛顿邮报的成功出版商的。
