There are many reasons why I encourage people to travel, and I know that the experience will make one a better person.
I remember when I was travelling I began to know the world better. The world is not just about me, my small town and home. Although you will meet different people from all over the world, you will realize that people are similar in their dreams, hopes and feelings. Enjoy exploring the different cultures, and you will also find that people are different in some of the things they do and how they live. Once you understand their ways, it need not be strange or scary. Often we read stories about other cultures in books. Only when we visit their areas do we find that those stories are something wrong.
One thing you may find out is that there are problems all over the world. We can’t just get money to send to these areas and hope that will work them out. The world should get involved(干预)and help wherever there are problems. People everywhere should be given a chance. It is so easy to ignore this if one does not travel and explore. One can look around and see that so many people have many challenges worse than ours. One can realize that sometimes our biggest problems are not that big after all.
On your journey you will meet lots of new friends. Talking to strangers and finding about their lives is a great way to spend your time. you will certainly be more confident after having to cope with problems and make many decisions along the way.
When you travel, you have to be on your own in some situations. You will surprise yourself by how well you can do that. All your special experiences could make an interesting book to read. It would be filled with all your adventures and special memories.
Traveling around and seeing so much happening in the world around us is a wonderful experience. If we could all just travel a little more and share our experiences, we would all be better people and the world would be a better place.
(1) From paragraph 2, we can learn that ________.
A.people around the world are the same in their hopes
B.books always tell us wrong stories about cultures
C.traveling can help us better understand the world
D.People in different places have strange living habits
(2) The underlined expression “cope with” in Paragraph 4 most probably means “________”.
A.solve B.avoid
C.meet D.cover
(3) Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
A.People in the world are family
B.Traveling helps one make more friends
C.People in the world share one dream
D.Traveling makes one a better person

There are stock markets(股票市场)in large cities in many countries. Stock markets in Paris, London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares of a factory or company. And each share means certain ownership of a factory or company.
Different people go to stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks to try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as part of their plan to save money.
Of course, investing(投资)money in the stock market is not the safest way to make money. No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may do badly. Then the stocks will go down, and the investors will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number of untold reasons. Everyone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a factory or company does a good job, the stock may still go down.
No wonder going to the stock market is often compared to gambling(赌博)All are eager to make money by “gambling” in the stock market. Factories and companies that need money are pleased that so many people are willing to "gamble". Indeed, the stock market is an attractive and complex part of the business world.
(1) The passage mainly wants to tell us _____.

答案与解析
1. multiple choice.
(1) 【答案】C【解析】句意:如果明天天气晴朗,我将和我的朋友一起去超市购物。考查动词辨析题。本句是if条件句从句需用一般现在时代替一般将来时。it是单数第三人称,系词需用is;根据句意语境,可知选C。
(2) 【答案】B【解析】句意:我不知道他什么时候来。他来的时候,我会打电话给你。考查宾语从句和时间状语从句。前一句是宾语从句,需用陈述句语序,AD两项是疑问句语序,可排除;主句don’t是一般现在时形式,根据句意语境,可知他还没回来,需用一般将来时。后一句是when引导的时间状语从句,从句的一般将来时需用一般现在时代替。结合句意结构,故选B。
(3) 【答案】C【解析】句意:——你能告诉我他是否能在三十分钟内解决所有的问题?——恐怕他不能。如果再给他五分钟,我想他会的。考查动词时态和语态辨析题。问句是if引导的宾语从句,in thirty minutes(在三十分钟内),用于一般将来时,可排除BD两项。答句是if条件句,需用一般现在时代替一般将来时,从句主语he是单数第三人称,还是动词give的受动者,需用被动语态,即“is+过去分词”结构。根据句意结构和语境,可知选C。
(4) 【答案】D【解析】句意:——布莱克先生几天后将去上海。你知道星期日最早的飞机什么时候起飞吗?——上午10点。考查动词短语和时态辨析题。leave off停止,中断(做某事);take off (飞机)起飞,都是固定短语,可知后者符合句意,可排除AC两项。问句是时间状语从句,主句do是一般现在时,可知过去式took错误,结合答语At 10:00am.是将来的时间,故选D。
(5) 【答案】B【解析】句意:——杰克,你觉得我的新衣服怎么样?——对不起,再说一遍好吗?我在想别的事情。考查动词时态辨析题。根据句意语境,可知问话者说话的时候回答者正在做别的事情,需用过去进行时,即be+过去分词结构;主语I是第一人称,系词需用was,故选B。

(7) 【答案】A【解析】句意:Jimmy喜欢踢足球。看!他正在踢足球。Like doing sth喜欢做某事。
后一句有Look!(现在进行时的标志)是一个现在进行时的句子。故答案是A。
(8) 【答案】B【解析】句意:自从五年之前,Mr Black就已经住在中国了。根据时间状语since five years ago可知,用现在完成时,其结构是have done的形式。根据题意,故选B。
(9) 【答案】C【解析】句意:吉姆今天上午拜访了他的数学老师,但汤姆没有去。考查助动词辨析题。前后两句是转折关系,前一句visited是实意动词的一般过去式,后一句也需用一般过去时。根据句意语境,可知后句是否定结构,助动词需用did,故选C。
(10) 【答案】D【解析】句意:——丹尼尔,请你借给我这本书,好吗?——对不起,我只拥有它半个小时。我还没有读完它。lend sb sth="lend" sth to sb借给某人某物;borrow sth from sb从某人那里借了某物,have bought买,是瞬间性动词;have had有,是延续性动词。根据时间段for only half an hour可知此处用延续性动词,与现在完成时连用,故为have had,故选D。
2. Reading comprehension.
(1) C 主旨大意题。文章主要告诉我们:定位关键词stock market,全篇讲述的是关于stock market的基本知识和信息,可选定答案C。
(2) B 细节判断题。哪一项是错误的。根据最后一段,股市常被人比作赌博。公司和企业很高兴有人愿意为这个赌注买单。但是并没有讲到工厂和企业做得好,股票就会一路上升。故B错误。
(3) C 标题主旨题。定位关键词stock market,结合排除法。A只讲到股市中的投资,太窄。B讲的股市是赌博的中心,只是把炒股比作赌博,说法有误。D股市和赌博比较,只是一小段的内容,太窄。
