4.Square foot gardening is a type of gardening made popular by Mel Bartholemew.It is based on the idea that the wide rows in traditional gardening are a waste of time,work,water and area.It shows that quality vegetables can be grown in less space with less work.In this method,the garden space is divided into "beds".Each bed is 4'×4'(16 sq ft)(120 cm× 120 cm,1.4 m2).The beds are separated by paths(小路).These beds are further divided into squares of about one square mon spacing is one plant per square for larger plants such as broccoli,four per square for medium large plants like lettuce,nine per square for medium small plants like spinach,and sixteen per square for small plants such as onions and carrots.The weeds(杂草)are removed from the beds and the plants are watered from the paths.This stops the soil from being compacted(压紧).
Benefits of square foot gardening:
Much less work.Normal gardening needs heavy tools to loosen the soil.In this method,the soil is never compacted and it remains loose.
Water savings.The loose ground holds the water better.This type of garden needs water less often than other methods,Also,water is placed very near the plant roots.Less water is wasted.
Very few weeds.The vegetables form a living mulch(覆盖物)and shade out many weeds before they can start to grow.
Pesticides(杀虫剂)are not needed.Natural ways to keep pests away work very well in a close space.Many different types of plants in a small area also stop plant diseases from spreading easily.
(1)Why does square foot gardening become popular?    
A.It makes full use of space.
B.It is suggested by Mel Bartholemew.
C.It provides more vegetables for people.
D.It produces vegetables of higher quality.
(2)Why is the gardening called square foot gardening?    
A.Vegetables are grown in the squares.
B.You can grow vegetables anywhere by using it.
C.The smallest bed in it is only one square foot.
D.The places where vegetables are grown are too small.
(3)What can we infer from the text?    
A.Loose soil is good for plant growth.
B.Onions and carrots need more space.
C.Compacted soil is important to some plants.
D.Square foot gardening needs some heavy tools.
(4)Why are there fewer weeds in square foot gardening?    
A.Weed killers are used.
B.Weeds can't get sunlight.
C.Weeds are short of water.
D.Weeds have been removed.
5.There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care.To water his flowers,he used two buckets(水桶).One was a shiny and new bucket.The other was a very old and dilapidated one,which had seen many years of service,but was now past its best.
Every morning,the gardener would fill up the two buckets.Then he would carry them along the path,one on each side,to the flowerbeds.The new bucket was very proud of itself.It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled.The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes:before it reached the flowerbeds,much water had leaked(渗漏) along the path.
Sometimes the new bucket would say,"See how capable I am!How good it is that the gardener has me water the flowers every day!I don't know why he still uses you.What a waste of space you are! "
And all that the old bucket could say was,"I know I am not very useful,but I can only do my best.I am happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me,at least. "
One day,the gardener heard that kind of conversation.After watering the flowers as usual,he said,"You both have done your work very well.Now I am going to carry you back,and I want you to look carefully along the path. "
Then the two buckets did so.All along the path,they noticed,on the side where the new bucket was carried,there was just bare earth;on the other side where the old bucket was carried,there was a joyous row of wild flowers,leading all the way to the garden.
(1)What was the old bucket ashamed of?    
A.Its past.

D.Its leaking.

(3)The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to     .
A.take pity on the old one
B.laugh at the old one
C.show off its good looks
D.praise the gardener's kindness
(4)Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?    
A.Because it was used to keep a balance.

"Every cloud has a silver lining." It drives me crazy when Mom says nonsense(废话)like that.
I'd barely had time to arrange myself in the passenger seat,my foot already blown up(肿胀) like a balloon when she came out with it,exactly like I knew she would.First,she patted my leg.Then she just couldn't help herself, "Every cloud has a silver lining,you know,sweetheart." "Mom,I appreciate the thought,but I'm not ready to look on the bright side of this." We hadn't even left the school parking lot yet.
On the farthest side of the field,I could see my teammates doing sprints(短跑) training,Coach Zito striding back toward them.He'd mercifully helped me to the car in silence.Unlike Mom,he knew when it was best to say nothing.
As Mom started the engine,I imagined my teammates cooling down without me while they listened to Coach Zito's pep talk.And next Thursday,they would go to practice without me;and the Thursday after that…When I had fallen and twisted my ankle,I'd cried from the pain,but I was crying out of self﹣pity in the car.
Hours and hours of training,and then this.I told myself there was a glimmer(微光)of hope that everything would turn out okay,and that I'd make it to the track meet(田径赛) next month,but I knew it was just that:a glimmer.The tears fell hot and fast.Mom gave me a weak smile. "It'll be okay,Casey." I suspected this was another version of the silver﹣lining thing,but I felt so miserable that I let it pass.
We finally arrived at the hospital.Doctor Van gently moved my ankle around a bit before carefully lowering it.I nervously asked how long it would be before I could run. "Four weeks maybe,possibly five," he replied,and "even then,you'll need to take it easy for a while.Is that possible?" he asked with a smile.

【分析】本文讲述的是关于从盖特威克机场到市中心交通工具的介绍,文中分别介绍了火车、出租车、汽车和公交车这几种方式的收费和时间。
【解答】(1)A.推理判断题。根据文章内容,Trains go every 15 minutes and the journey to central London takes half an hour.火车每15分钟一班,到伦敦市中心要花半个小时;There are taxis outside the airport day and night.The journey to central London takes 55﹣70 minutes.机场外日夜都有出租车,去伦敦市中心要55﹣70分钟;There are 4 car parks next to the airport and there are car rental(租赁)offices open from 8:00 to 18:00.The journey to London takes 60﹣75 minutes.机场旁边有4个停车场,8:00到18:00有租车办公室.到伦敦的出租车旅程需要60﹣75分钟;National Express and EasyBus have services to central London.EasyBus services go every 20 minutes.The journey takes one hour and costs from 2.国家快车和Easybus都有去伦敦市中心的服务。Easybus服务每20分钟一班。行程一小时,费用从2英镑起。对比四种交通方式所需要的时间可知,火车最快捷,而且火车直接抵达伦敦市中心的维多利亚站。因此,如果是着急去该地方的乘客,那么非常适合选择火车出行。结合选项,故选A。
(2)D.细节理解题。根据By taxi部分中的The journey to central London takes 55﹣70 minutes.到伦敦市中心需要55﹣70分钟。和By car部分中的The journey to London takes 60﹣75 minutes.到伦敦需要60﹣75分钟。可知,这两种交通方式的旅途时间差不多。故选D。

4.Square foot gardening is a type of gardening made popular by Mel Bartholemew.It is based on the idea that the wide rows in traditional gardening are a waste of time,work,water and area.It shows that quality vegetables can be grown in less space with less work.In this method,the garden space is divided into "beds".Each bed is 4'×4'(16 sq ft)(120 cm× 120 cm,1.4 m2).The beds are separated by paths(小路).These beds are further divided into squares of about one square mon spacing is one plant per square for larger plants such as broccoli,four per square for medium large plants like lettuce,nine per square for medium small plants like spinach,and sixteen per square for small plants such as onions and carrots.The weeds(杂草)are removed from the beds and the plants are watered from the paths.This stops the soil from being compacted(压紧).

5.There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care.To water his flowers,he used two buckets(水桶).One was a shiny and new bucket.The other was a very old and dilapidated one,which had seen many years of service,but was now past its best.
Every morning,the gardener would fill up the two buckets.Then he would carry them along the path,one on each side,to the flowerbeds.The new bucket was very proud of itself.It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled.The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes:before it reached the flowerbeds,much water had leaked(渗漏) along the path.
Sometimes the new bucket would say,"See how capable I am!How good it is that the gardener has me water the flowers every day!I don't know why he still uses you.What a waste of space you are! "
And all that the old bucket could say was,"I know I am not very useful,but I can only do my best.I am happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me,at least. "
One day,the gardener heard that kind of conversation.After watering the flowers as usual,he said,"You both have done your work very well.Now I am going to carry you back,and I want you to look carefully along the path. "
Then the two buckets did so.All along the path,they noticed,on the side where the new bucket was carried,there was just bare earth;on the other side where the old bucket was carried,there was a joyous row of wild flowers,leading all the way to the garden.

14.阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
"Every cloud has a silver lining." It drives me crazy when Mom says nonsense(废话)like that.
I'd barely had time to arrange myself in the passenger seat,my foot already blown up(肿胀) like a balloon when she came out with it,exactly like I knew she would.First,she patted my leg.Then she just couldn't help herself, "Every cloud has a silver lining,you know,sweetheart." "Mom,I appreciate the thought,but I'm not ready to look on the bright side of this." We hadn't even left the school parking lot yet.
On the farthest side of the field,I could see my teammates doing sprints(短跑) training,Coach Zito striding back toward them.He'd mercifully helped me to the car in silence.Unlike Mom,he knew when it was best to say nothing.
As Mom started the engine,I imagined my teammates cooling down without me while they listened to Coach Zito's pep talk.And next Thursday,they would go to practice without me;and the Thursday after that…When I had fallen and twisted my ankle,I'd cried from the pain,but I was crying out of self﹣pity in the car.
Hours and hours of training,and then this.I told myself there was a glimmer(微光)of hope that everything would turn out okay,and that I'd make it to the track meet(田径赛) next month,but I knew it was just that:a glimmer.The tears fell hot and fast.Mom gave me a weak smile. "It'll be okay,Casey." I suspected this was another version of the silver﹣lining thing,but I felt so miserable that I let it pass.
We finally arrived at the hospital.Doctor Van gently moved my ankle around a bit before carefully lowering it.I nervously asked how long it would be before I could run. "Four weeks maybe,possibly five," he replied,and "even then,you'll need to take it easy for a while.Is that possible?" he asked with a smile.

My coach Zito looked at me in disbelief.To tell them everything was okay,I kicked,jumped and ran in front of them.Seeing this,they all burst out laughing.Later,I went to practice with them and participated in the track meet.From then on,whenever I encountered difficulties,Mom's encouraging words "Every cloud has a silver lining" always rang in my ears.【高分句型二】(作者的教练和队友对他的快速恢复很惊讶,同时又很欢迎他归队。作者也告诉他们自己快速恢复的秘诀是母亲的话,并且"Every cloud has a silver lining"这句话一直伴随作者以后的人生。)
【点评】解题方法点拨
(1)品读原文,确定文章线索
每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路,通过精读文章,找到该篇文章的写作线索。如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜(结尾)"。
(2)仔细审题,明确续写要求
一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此次短文续写的具体要求,如词数限制使用几处标有下划线的关键词语。续写段落的首句提示,这样考生可以做到"心中有数"。
(3)回扣原文,揣摩续写思路
根据文章后面的要求,再次快速阅读短文,抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。
(4)拟写草稿,修改错词病句
在确定了思路和内容之后,最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时,注意句子结构的多样性,语言的丰富性,并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用,使上下文连贯。
(5)关键用词,标出续写部分中使用到的原材料中标有下划线的关键词语这一点可以帮助考生自己检查关键词的使用情况并根据情况做出修改。最后在誊写文字时,务必做到"字迹工整、清晰"。
