Dear Sir:
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to let you know that I wish to resign (辞职) from my position. It is my plan to leave after working my 3-month notice period. As you know, I was planning to move my family to Florida in 6 months time. I have since decided to move sooner. I hope this does not cause you too many problems. I am happy to help you train a replacement (接替者) during this time.
I have enjoyed my 6 years with the company. I am also grateful for the time you took to train and develop my skills. I am sure you will understand my need to move on. My wife has been offered an excellent job in Florida. We have agreed to move as a family. With two young children, I did not want us to be separated because of work. We are planning to start moving into our new house at the start of June. I am happy to discuss this further with you in person. I will return to work on Monday, June 19th after my current (当前的) vacation in Texas. We can then sit down and work out the details. If you have any questions, please call my cellphone or feel free to email me. Once again, I would like to thank you for your understanding.

Coffee is an important part of Italian culture and since arriving here over six months ago, I have drunk a lot of it!
Of course, coffee is also very popular in the UK but coffee culture in Italy is a completely different story. In Italy, when you order a coffee in a café or bar (酒吧), you are served with a tiny, bitter espresso. This is “normal (正常的) coffee” for Italians and they are not so interested in the huge coffees that we drink in the UK. If you want more than one sip (小口) of coffee in Italy, lungo is a good choice. It is espresso with a little more water added, but still served in a small cup. In addition, while takeaway coffee is quite popular among Brits, it is not very common at all in Italy, especially in non-touristy areas. Generally, Italians prefer to drink their tiny coffees while standing at the bar and, for many, this short break is an important part of their day.
Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy includes a coffee and a pastry (酥皮糕点). I have been spoiled for choice with lovely cafés in the Italian town I'm living in. These cafés sell different kinds of mouth-watering pastries — either plain (无馅料的) or filled with cream, chocolate, etc — as well as delicious coffee. Cappuccinos are very popular at breakfast time and, for me, a creamy cappuccino and a pastry with chocolate is the perfect way to start the day.
Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy is so much cheaper than coffee in the UK. Normally, an espresso or a macchiato (an espresso with a drop of milk) costs around a euro and a cappuccino about 1.50! They are small, of course, but this means that in Italy it is possible to go out for coffee every day without breaking the bank.
主题:人与社会——文化
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。文章介绍了意大利的咖啡文化。
8.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?
A.By time. B.By space
C.By example D.By comparison.
答案与解析:D 推理判断题。第二段通过与英国的咖啡文化对比,介绍了意大利的咖啡文化。
9.Which coffee will you get in Italy if you order one without special instructions?
A.Espresso. B.Lungo.
C.Cappuccino. D.Macchiato.
答案与解析:A 细节理解题。由第二段中的In Italy, when you order a coffee... “normal coffee”for Italians可知,在意大利咖啡馆或酒吧点一杯咖啡时,服务员上的是espresso,这种咖啡对意大利人来说是正常咖啡。
10.What can we learn about the coffee culture in Italy?
A.Takeaway coffee is very popular among Italians.
B.Italians are very often seen drinking huge coffees.
C.Italians like to take short breaks from work for coffee.
D.Coffees are often served along with pastries during breakfasts.
答案与解析:D 细节理解题。由第三段中的Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy includes a coffee and a pastry.可知,在意大利,人们的早餐通常包含一杯咖啡和一份酥皮糕点。
11.What does the author think of Italian coffee?
A.She loves its bitter taste.
B.It is too expensive for her.
C.It is a good choice for breakfast.
D.The cup it is served in is too small.
答案与解析:C 细节理解题。由第三段中的for me, a creamy cappuccino... perfect way to start the day可知,作者认为咖啡是早餐的上好选择。
Ⅱ.七选五
The coffee story
Kaldi was tired but he couldn't sleep. His goats were awake and very noisy. “Why can't they sleep?” Kaldi thought. __1__ They were eating some green plants with little red fruits on them. Kaldi decided to taste the fruits. He ate the soft part of each fruit and the hard things in the centre. __2__ He was not tired. He felt more awake and did not want to sleep.
Those hard things were coffee beans, and Kaldi discovered them in Ethiopia more than 1,000 years ago. __3__ Perhaps it is true, perhaps not. Nobody knows. But we know that coffee grew first in Ethiopia, and we know that somebody discovered it there more than 1,000 years ago.

For 400 years, only the Arabs knew about qahwa. Then people in Turkey learnt about it. Soon after that, western Europeans began to drink it, and in 1652 the first coffee shop in London opened.
__5__ Some famous coffee-growing countries are Brazil, Colombia, Indonesia and, of course, Ethiopia. Coffee is one of the world's favourite drinks, thanks to Kaldi and his goats.

The Sound of Music
My day in the hills has come to an end
I know

But deep in the dark-green shadows
Are voices that urge me to stay
So I pause and I wait and I listen
For one more sound
for one more lovely thing

The hills are alive with the sound of music
With songs they have sung ③for_a_thousand_years

My heart wants to beat like the wings of the birds that rise from the lake to the trees
My heart wants to sigh like the chime that flies from a church on a breeze
To laugh like a brook ⑤when_it_trips and falls over stones on its way
To sing through the night like a lark who is learning to prey
I go to the hills when my heart is lonely
I know I will hear what I've heard before
My heart will be blessed with the sound of music
And I'll sing once more
音乐之声
我在山中的日子就要结束了
我知道
一颗星星出来告诉了我
是时候离开了
但在墨绿色阴影的深处
传来了让我留下来的声音
于是我停下来,等待着,聆听着
为了再出现一个声音,
为了再出现一个可爱的事情
群山也许在说
群山是鲜活的
伴着音乐之声
伴着他们歌唱的歌曲
已经过了千年
群山填满了我的心
伴着这音乐之声
我的心也想歌唱
把听到的每一首都唱出来
我的心想要拍打跳动
像鸟儿的翅膀一样
从湖面飞到树枝
我的心想要轻叹
就像飞扬的钟声
乘着微风从教堂吹来
笑声像蜿蜒的小溪
一路轻盈跳跃起伏
自然地绕过石头
整夜歌唱
就像是云雀
在学习捕食
我走到群山中
当我内心孤独时
我知道我会听到我
之前听过的声音
我的心将被祝福
伴着这音乐之声
我将再一次歌唱

THE BAND THAT WASN'T
Have you ever wanted to be part of a band as a famous singer or musician①? Have you ever dreamed of ② playing in front of thousands of people at a concert, at which everyone is clapping and appreciating your music【1】? Do you sing karaoke and pretend③ you are a famous singer like Song Zuying or Liu Huan? To be honest④, a lot of people attach great importance to⑤ becoming rich and famous. But just how do people form⑥ a band?
【1】at which 引导非限制性定语从句,which指代a concert, 此处at which可用where替换。
Many musicians meet and form a band because they like to write and play their own music. They may start as a group of high-school students, for whom practising their music in someone's house is the first step to fame⑦ 【2】. Sometimes they may play to passers-by⑧ in the street or subway so that they can earn⑨ some extra⑩ money for themselves or to pay for their instruments? 【3】. Later they may give performances ? in pubs? or clubs, for which they are paid in cash? 【4】. Of course they hope to make records in a studio? and sell millions of copies to become millionaires?!
【2】for whom引导非限制性定语从句,whom指代a group of high-school students。
【3】so that they can earn some extra money... 是so that引导的目的状语从句。
【4】for which they are paid in cash是for which引导的定语从句。从句中含短语pay for, for已移至关系代词之前。
However, there was one band that started in a different way 【5】. It was called the Monkees? and began as a TV show?. The musicians were to play jokes on? each other as well as play music, most of which was based loosely on? the Beatles 【6】. The TV organizers had planned to find four musicians 【7】 who could act as well as sing. They put an advertisement in a newspaper looking for rock musicians 【8】, but they could only find one who was good enough. They had to use actors for the other three members of the band.
【5】that started... 是that引导的定语从句,修饰one band,且that在从句中作主语。
【6】most of which 引导非限制性定语从句,修饰music。
【7】had planned to do“本来计划做某事(但事实上没做成)”,是一种虚拟语气的用法。
【8】现在分词短语looking for rock musicians 作定语,修饰an advertisement。
As some of these actors could not sing well enough 【9】, they had to rely on other musicians to help them. So during the broadcasts they just pretended to sing. Anyhow their performances were humorous enough to be copied by other groups. They were so popular that their fans formed clubs in order to get more familiar with them. 【10】 Each week on TV, the Monkees would play and sing songs written by other musicians 【11】. However, after a year or so in which they became more serious about their work, the Monkees started to play and sing their own songs like a real band. Then they produced their own records and started touring and playing their own music. In the USA they became even more popular than the Beatles and sold even more records. The band broke up about 1970, but happily they reunited in the mid-1980s. They produced a new record in 1996, with which they celebrated their former time as a real band 【12】.
【9】As some of these actors could not sing well enough是as引导的原因状语从句。
【11】过去分词短语written by...作定语,修饰songs。
【12】with which引导非限制性定语从句,which指代a new record。
[课文翻译]
并非乐队的乐队
你曾经想过要成为一个乐队里有名的歌手或音乐家(musician)吗?你是否曾经梦想(dream of)过在音乐会上面对成千上万的观众演唱,而音乐会上的每个人都欣赏你的音乐并为你鼓掌呢?你唱卡拉OK时是否假装(pretend)自己就是像宋祖英或刘欢一样著名的歌星?说实在的(to be honest),很多人把名和利看得很重要(attach great importance to)。然而,人们又是怎样组成(form)乐队的呢?
许多音乐家聚在一起组成乐队,是因为他们喜欢创作并演奏自己的音乐。他们开始可能是一群中学生,在某个人家里排练音乐是他们成名(fame)的第一步。有时他们可能在街上或地铁里为过路者(passer-by)演奏,这样他们可以为自己或自己要买的乐器(instrument)多(extra)挣(earn)一些钱。后来,他们可能在酒吧(pub)或者俱乐部里演出(performances),这样他们可以得到现金(in cash)。当然,他们希望在录音棚(studio)里录音,然后卖掉数百万张碟,从而成为百万富翁(millionaire)!
然而,也有一个用不同方式组建起来的乐队。这支乐队叫“门基乐队(the Monkees)”,它开始时是以电视表演的形式出现的。组成乐队的音乐人演奏音乐,还彼此打趣逗笑(play jokes on)。这些音乐大多都在模仿“甲壳虫”乐队。电视制作人原计划寻找四位既会唱又会表演的乐手。他们在报纸上登了一则广告,寻找摇滚乐手,但他们只招到一个满意的。他们只能用演员(actor)来代替乐队的其他三人。
因为这些演员中有些人唱得不是很好,他们不得不依靠(rely on)其他音乐家帮助。所以演出(broadcast)时他们只是假唱。不管怎样,他们的表演非常幽默(humorous),使得其他的乐队也开始模仿。他们如此受欢迎以至于歌迷们为了更加熟悉(get familiar with)他们而组建了俱乐部。“门基乐队”每个星期都要在电视上演唱由别的音乐家创作的歌曲。然而,经过大约(or so)一年以后,“门基乐队”逐渐对自己的工作认真起来,他们开始像一支真正的乐队那样演唱自己创作的歌曲。然后他们录制了自己的唱片,并且开始巡回表演他们自己的音乐。在美国,他们甚至比“甲壳虫”乐队还要受欢迎,出售的专辑还要多。“门基乐队”大约在1970年解散(break up),但令人高兴的是,在20世纪80年代中期他们再次聚首(reunite)。在1996年,他们推出了一张新的专辑,以此来歌颂他们作为真正的乐队的那段时光。

Coffee is an important part of Italian culture and since arriving here over six months ago, I have drunk a lot of it!
Of course, coffee is also very popular in the UK but coffee culture in Italy is a completely different story. In Italy, when you order a coffee in a café or bar (酒吧), you are served with a tiny, bitter espresso. This is “normal (正常的) coffee” for Italians and they are not so interested in the huge coffees that we drink in the UK. If you want more than one sip (小口) of coffee in Italy, lungo is a good choice. It is espresso with a little more water added, but still served in a small cup. In addition, while takeaway coffee is quite popular among Brits, it is not very common at all in Italy, especially in non-touristy areas. Generally, Italians prefer to drink their tiny coffees while standing at the bar and, for many, this short break is an important part of their day.
Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy includes a coffee and a pastry (酥皮糕点). I have been spoiled for choice with lovely cafés in the Italian town I'm living in. These cafés sell different kinds of mouth-watering pastries — either plain (无馅料的) or filled with cream, chocolate, etc — as well as delicious coffee. Cappuccinos are very popular at breakfast time and, for me, a creamy cappuccino and a pastry with chocolate is the perfect way to start the day.
Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy is so much cheaper than coffee in the UK. Normally, an espresso or a macchiato (an espresso with a drop of milk) costs around a euro and a cappuccino about 1.50! They are small, of course, but this means that in Italy it is possible to go out for coffee every day without breaking the bank.
主题:人与社会——文化
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。文章介绍了意大利的咖啡文化。
8.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?
A.By time. B.By space
C.By example D.By comparison.
答案与解析:D 推理判断题。第二段通过与英国的咖啡文化对比,介绍了意大利的咖啡文化。
9.Which coffee will you get in Italy if you order one without special instructions?
A.Espresso. B.Lungo.
C.Cappuccino. D.Macchiato.
答案与解析:A 细节理解题。由第二段中的In Italy, when you order a coffee... “normal coffee”for Italians可知,在意大利咖啡馆或酒吧点一杯咖啡时,服务员上的是espresso,这种咖啡对意大利人来说是正常咖啡。
10.What can we learn about the coffee culture in Italy?
A.Takeaway coffee is very popular among Italians.
B.Italians are very often seen drinking huge coffees.
C.Italians like to take short breaks from work for coffee.
D.Coffees are often served along with pastries during breakfasts.
答案与解析:D 细节理解题。由第三段中的Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy includes a coffee and a pastry.可知,在意大利,人们的早餐通常包含一杯咖啡和一份酥皮糕点。

The coffee story
Kaldi was tired but he couldn't sleep. His goats were awake and very noisy. “Why can't they sleep?” Kaldi thought. __1__ They were eating some green plants with little red fruits on them. Kaldi decided to taste the fruits. He ate the soft part of each fruit and the hard things in the centre. __2__ He was not tired. He felt more awake and did not want to sleep.
Those hard things were coffee beans, and Kaldi discovered them in Ethiopia more than 1,000 years ago. __3__ Perhaps it is true, perhaps not. Nobody knows. But we know that coffee grew first in Ethiopia, and we know that somebody discovered it there more than 1,000 years ago.
__4__ Arab farmers began to grow coffee plants. People learnt to make a drink from the beans, and they called it qahwa.
For 400 years, only the Arabs knew about qahwa. Then people in Turkey learnt about it. Soon after that, western Europeans began to drink it, and in 1652 the first coffee shop in London opened.
__5__ Some famous coffee-growing countries are Brazil, Colombia, Indonesia and, of course, Ethiopia. Coffee is one of the world's favourite drinks, thanks to Kaldi and his goats.

Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
One night, I was happily making my tea when all of a sudden the room was in complete darkness. The lights had gone out, the oven (微波炉) stopped working and my phone was no longer charging (充电). I tried to fix the electricity but I soon realized that I couldn't. I had to wait for an electrician to come in the morning.
After messaging my friends to say that I wouldn't message that night because I couldn't charge my phone. I sat down to eat my half-cooked dinner. And then I wasn't sure what to do. I usually spend my evenings watching TV and going on the Internet. I couldn't even read a book because I wasn't prepared with candles. So_for_me,_it_was_an_early_night.
Losing our electricity felt like losing a basic necessity. In fact, electricity is a luxury (奢侈品). But we think it will always be there when we need it. I use electricity all the time, even when it's not really necessary. I use it to put the TV on even when I'm not really watching it. I use it to check my phone when I wait for a friend.
Our overuse of electricity is a big problem. It is one of the causes of global (全球的) warming, which is harming our environment and we need to do what we can to stop it. Not only that, but if we continue to overuse it we will soon run out.
We wouldn't want to live in a world without electricity, but we will run out one day. So, shouldn't we start preparing for it now? Cutting back on our use of electricity saves energy resources (资源) so that they can last longer. I know for sure that I could cut down on my use of electricity. If everyone does the same, we can make a difference.
【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。经过一次停电事件,作者开始反思自己过度依赖和浪费电资源的情况,呼吁大家节约能源。
1.What did the author do when the electricity went out suddenly?
A.He tried to fix it and succeeded.
B.He messaged his friends for help.
C.He called an electrician immediately.
D.He stayed in darkness the whole night.
答案与解析:D 推理判断题。由第一段中的I had to wait for an electrician to come in the morning和第二段中的I wasn't prepared with candles可知,突然停电之后,作者只能等待电工第二天早晨来修,而且作者没有准备蜡烛,因此可推断,作者不得不整夜处在黑暗之中。
2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 show?
A.The author was unsure what to do.
B.The author had nothing to do but sleep.
C.The author was tired after the accident.
D.The author didn't want to do any reading.
答案与解析:B 句意理解题。由第二段中的I wouldn't message that night... I wasn't sure what to do. I usually spend my evenings watching TV and going on the Internet. I couldn't even read a book可知,由于停电,作者无法做自己平时所做的事情,因此只能早睡。
3.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.The results of overusing electricity.
B.The examples of overusing electricity.
C.The ways of using electricity properly.
D.The suggestions on producing electricity.
答案与解析:A 主旨大意题。第四段主要介绍了过度使用电资源的后果:导致全球变暖,进而危害环境,而且过量使用电资源会使其很快耗尽。
B
With the increasing development of technology, we now have the ability to get much information from foreign media sources (媒体资源). Because we can learn much about events happening in other countries from the media, such as magazines and newspapers, many people may think that reading magazines and newspapers is the best way to learn about a foreign country. However, I believe that only reading magazines and newspapers as a way of learning about a foreign country has several limitations (限制).
We cannot deny that magazines and newspapers actually present some valuable information about foreign countries. However, the information that they present is often one-sided, so that readers can only learn about one opinion on an event happening in a foreign country. Also, the words and pictures in magazines and newspapers may not be true. If a government wants to hide some facts, it may force the media to tell lies to its readers, and thus the information that readers receive may not be true.
I think that the best way to learn about a foreign country is to travel or live there for a while. By traveling or living in a country, you can see things that do not appear in magazines and newspapers, and learn about the local political situation, state of the economy and the culture. You can get more information about a country by talking directly with local people about the overall situation, and can truly understand the local culture by living with them for a while. But if you are at home reading a newspaper or magazine, you simply get information provided by others passively (被动地) instead of collecting information directly.
So, I believe that the best way to learn about a foreign country is not by reading magazines and newspapers but by placing yourself in that foreign country.
【语篇解读】 本文是议论文。作者认为,读报纸和看杂志并不是了解一个国家最好的方式,去那个国家旅游或者在那里住一段时间才是最好的方式。
4.What does the text mainly discuss?
A.How people get information in no time.
B.Where people can get information they need.
C.Why it's important to learn about a foreign country.
D.What the best way to learn about a foreign country is.
答案与解析:D 主旨大意题。由第一段中的I believe that only reading magazines and newspapers as a way of learning about a foreign country has several limitations和第三段中的I think that the best way to learn about a foreign country is to travel or live there for a while可知,作者主要就什么是了解一个国家最好的方式进行了论述。
5.What does the underlined word “deny” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Disagree. B.Promise.
C.Realize. D.Accept.
答案与解析:A 词义猜测题。由下文中的However, the information that they present is often one-sided可知,前后两句构成转折关系,因此画线单词所在句意为:我们不能否认报纸和杂志的确能够提供一些有关其他国家的有价值的信息。
6.Which can best describe the information from magazines and newspapers?
A.True but not enough.
B.Correct but not fresh.
C.Limited and not always true.
D.Not enough and not valuable.
答案与解析:C 细节理解题。由第二段中的is often one-sided和may not be true可知,报纸和杂志提供的信息往往是片面的,而且有可能是不真实的。
7.What is the advantage of traveling to a foreign country according to Paragraph 3?
A.You'll have a quicker mind by learning more.
B.You'll have a chance to read local newspapers.
C.You'll meet people who are different from you.
D.You'll learn truths that the media don't provide.
答案与解析:D 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的By traveling or living in a country, you can see things that do not appear in magazines and newspapers可知,旅行或者居住在一个国家可以使我们看到报纸和杂志上未呈现的内容。
Ⅲ.完形填空

Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
One night, I was happily making my tea when all of a sudden the room was in complete darkness. The lights had gone out, the oven (微波炉) stopped working and my phone was no longer charging (充电). I tried to fix the electricity but I soon realized that I couldn't. I had to wait for an electrician to come in the morning.
After messaging my friends to say that I wouldn't message that night because I couldn't charge my phone. I sat down to eat my half-cooked dinner. And then I wasn't sure what to do. I usually spend my evenings watching TV and going on the Internet. I couldn't even read a book because I wasn't prepared with candles. So_for_me,_it_was_an_early_night.
Losing our electricity felt like losing a basic necessity. In fact, electricity is a luxury (奢侈品). But we think it will always be there when we need it. I use electricity all the time, even when it's not really necessary. I use it to put the TV on even when I'm not really watching it. I use it to check my phone when I wait for a friend.
Our overuse of electricity is a big problem. It is one of the causes of global (全球的) warming, which is harming our environment and we need to do what we can to stop it. Not only that, but if we continue to overuse it we will soon run out.
We wouldn't want to live in a world without electricity, but we will run out one day. So, shouldn't we start preparing for it now? Cutting back on our use of electricity saves energy resources (资源) so that they can last longer. I know for sure that I could cut down on my use of electricity. If everyone does the same, we can make a difference.
【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。经过一次停电事件,作者开始反思自己过度依赖和浪费电资源的情况,呼吁大家节约能源。
1.What did the author do when the electricity went out suddenly?
A.He tried to fix it and succeeded.
B.He messaged his friends for help.
C.He called an electrician immediately.
D.He stayed in darkness the whole night.
答案与解析:D 推理判断题。由第一段中的I had to wait for an electrician to come in the morning和第二段中的I wasn't prepared with candles可知,突然停电之后,作者只能等待电工第二天早晨来修,而且作者没有准备蜡烛,因此可推断,作者不得不整夜处在黑暗之中。
2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 show?
A.The author was unsure what to do.
B.The author had nothing to do but sleep.
C.The author was tired after the accident.
D.The author didn't want to do any reading.
答案与解析:B 句意理解题。由第二段中的I wouldn't message that night... I wasn't sure what to do. I usually spend my evenings watching TV and going on the Internet. I couldn't even read a book可知,由于停电,作者无法做自己平时所做的事情,因此只能早睡。
3.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.The results of overusing electricity.
B.The examples of overusing electricity.
C.The ways of using electricity properly.
D.The suggestions on producing electricity.
答案与解析:A 主旨大意题。第四段主要介绍了过度使用电资源的后果:导致全球变暖,进而危害环境,而且过量使用电资源会使其很快耗尽。
B
With the increasing development of technology, we now have the ability to get much information from foreign media sources (媒体资源). Because we can learn much about events happening in other countries from the media, such as magazines and newspapers, many people may think that reading magazines and newspapers is the best way to learn about a foreign country. However, I believe that only reading magazines and newspapers as a way of learning about a foreign country has several limitations (限制).
We cannot deny that magazines and newspapers actually present some valuable information about foreign countries. However, the information that they present is often one-sided, so that readers can only learn about one opinion on an event happening in a foreign country. Also, the words and pictures in magazines and newspapers may not be true. If a government wants to hide some facts, it may force the media to tell lies to its readers, and thus the information that readers receive may not be true.
I think that the best way to learn about a foreign country is to travel or live there for a while. By traveling or living in a country, you can see things that do not appear in magazines and newspapers, and learn about the local political situation, state of the economy and the culture. You can get more information about a country by talking directly with local people about the overall situation, and can truly understand the local culture by living with them for a while. But if you are at home reading a newspaper or magazine, you simply get information provided by others passively (被动地) instead of collecting information directly.
So, I believe that the best way to learn about a foreign country is not by reading magazines and newspapers but by placing yourself in that foreign country.
【语篇解读】 本文是议论文。作者认为,读报纸和看杂志并不是了解一个国家最好的方式,去那个国家旅游或者在那里住一段时间才是最好的方式。
4.What does the text mainly discuss?
A.How people get information in no time.
B.Where people can get information they need.
C.Why it's important to learn about a foreign country.
D.What the best way to learn about a foreign country is.
答案与解析:D 主旨大意题。由第一段中的I believe that only reading magazines and newspapers as a way of learning about a foreign country has several limitations和第三段中的I think that the best way to learn about a foreign country is to travel or live there for a while可知,作者主要就什么是了解一个国家最好的方式进行了论述。
5.What does the underlined word “deny” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Disagree. B.Promise.
C.Realize. D.Accept.
答案与解析:A 词义猜测题。由下文中的However, the information that they present is often one-sided可知,前后两句构成转折关系,因此画线单词所在句意为:我们不能否认报纸和杂志的确能够提供一些有关其他国家的有价值的信息。
6.Which can best describe the information from magazines and newspapers?
A.True but not enough.
B.Correct but not fresh.
C.Limited and not always true.
D.Not enough and not valuable.
答案与解析:C 细节理解题。由第二段中的is often one-sided和may not be true可知,报纸和杂志提供的信息往往是片面的,而且有可能是不真实的。
7.What is the advantage of traveling to a foreign country according to Paragraph 3?
A.You'll have a quicker mind by learning more.
B.You'll have a chance to read local newspapers.
C.You'll meet people who are different from you.
D.You'll learn truths that the media don't provide.
答案与解析:D 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的By traveling or living in a country, you can see things that do not appear in magazines and newspapers可知,旅行或者居住在一个国家可以使我们看到报纸和杂志上未呈现的内容。

I really hope that this letter finds you well. I am writing to see how you are doing at college. I remember how unhappy you were when we dropped you off. I hate to think of you as being unhappy. I know what a bright girl you are. I am sure that you have already made a lot of new friends. How are your courses going? Are you enjoying the work and learning a lot? I believe you are finding it very interesting. I am so proud of you for studying and working your way toward your aims.
Everything is fine at home. I am halfway through my exams and have been enjoying them so far. I am prepared and relaxed when I attend each one. So far, they have all been a piece of cake. If all goes well, I may even be following in your footsteps in a few years' time. We could even find ourselves at the same college.
Dad and Mom are great as always. Dad wants to travel to London. Mom is trying to get fit for our summer vacation. I know you can't make it. I am hoping that you will be able to make it back next year to travel with us. Any trip abroad is just not the same without you!

B
Outside, it's a cold winter's day. Inside a large shopping centre, people are hanging around. But then, without warning, a pop song starts to play loudly. A teenage boy walks lazily to the centre of the open space, and dances crazily to the music. He's joined by two of his friends, then some of the old people. Within the space of a few seconds, more than sixty people are dancing to the music — all in time and all in step. At first, onlookers are baffled,_then they start smiling and clapping. They now know what they're seeing: a flash mob (快闪).
According to Wikipedia, the term “flash mob” was created by Bill Wasik, an editor at Harper's Magazine, in 2003. Within a year, the phrase had entered the Concise Oxford English Dictionary. Since then, hundreds — possibly thousands — of flash mobs have been carried out around the world, in almost every kind of public space imaginable!
Each flash mob has its own style, but most flash mobs follow a similar formula (方案). Often, the organisers search for willing participants (参与者) using social media. Instructions and dance moves are given through email or video download. There are usually several rehearsals (排练) before the big day.
While it's happening, a few lucky passers-by watch it live. Most people who watch it, however, will see it later online. Some of the most popular flash mobs on YouTube have been watched more than 10 million times. A famous example is MP3 Experiment Eight, a flash mob that took place in New York City in July 2011 with over 3,500 participants. This event differed from normal flash mobs in that much of it was completely silent — and there were no rehearsals.
Flash mobs provide the participants, onlookers and online viewers with a lot of enjoyment and pleasure. For this reason alone, they're a modern, popular art form that should be celebrated.
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。文章介绍了时下很流行的快闪行动。

7.What is special about MP3 Experiment Eight?
A.It was played online.
B.It was the earliest flash mob.
C.It was played with no sound.
D.It was most accepted by the audience.
答案与解析:C 细节理解题。根据第四段中的A famous example is MP3 Experiment Eight... much of it was completely silent可知,MP3 Experiment Eight这次快闪行动的特别之处在于其没有声音。
8.What is the author's opinion on flash mobs?
A.He supports them. B.He is against them.

FREDDY THE FROG (Ⅱ)
Not long after Freddy and the band became famous 【1】, they visited Britain on a brief tour①. Fans showed their devotion② by waiting for hours to get tickets for③ their concerts.

It felt very strange. But as soon as the programme was over, the telephones which were in the same room 【3】 started ringing. Everybody was asking when they could see Freddy and his band again. They were truly stars.

弗雷迪和他的乐队成名后不久,就到英国作短暂的 (brief) 巡回演出去了。歌迷们表现出了极大的忠心 (devotion), 他们等几个小时来购买音乐会的门票。弗雷迪现在步入演出厅时会感到非常自信 (confident)。他很喜欢演唱,喜欢演出后 (afterwards) 所有的祝贺声! 最令他激动的是应邀 (invitation) 参加叫做“顶级流行歌手”的电视节目中的那场表演。他得去伦敦,穿着昂贵的服装,对着电视摄像机演唱。那种感觉真是不一般。而节目一结束,这个房间里的电话铃声就开始响起来了。大家都问什么时候可以再次看到弗雷迪和他的乐队。他们真的成了明星。
后来情况可就不妙了。弗雷迪和他的乐队无论走到哪都有人跟踪。甚至他们戴着太阳镜或留着胡子 (beard) 时,人们也会认出他们来。他们即使去洗手间,也会被歌迷发现。他们试图在图书馆的阅览室里躲藏起来,但这不管用。总有人在那儿! 一些不了解他们的人在不断地讨论他们的私生活,而且就像是他们的密友一样在谈论他们。终于由于深感苦恼,神经高度紧张 (sensitive),弗雷迪和他的乐队意识到他们必须在自己感到太痛苦 (painful) 之前离开这个国家。因此,他们离开了英国,从此再也没有回去,又重新回到湖里去了。

Dear Sally,
I really hope that this letter finds you well. I am writing to see how you are doing at college. I remember how unhappy you were when we dropped you off. I hate to think of you as being unhappy. I know what a bright girl you are. I am sure that you have already made a lot of new friends. How are your courses going? Are you enjoying the work and learning a lot? I believe you are finding it very interesting. I am so proud of you for studying and working your way toward your aims.
Everything is fine at home. I am halfway through my exams and have been enjoying them so far. I am prepared and relaxed when I attend each one. So far, they have all been a piece of cake. If all goes well, I may even be following in your footsteps in a few years' time. We could even find ourselves at the same college.
Dad and Mom are great as always. Dad wants to travel to London. Mom is trying to get fit for our summer vacation. I know you can't make it. I am hoping that you will be able to make it back next year to travel with us. Any trip abroad is just not the same without you!
Anyhow I know you are working hard and that it is all for your future. So take care and I look forward to seeing you soon. I really miss our chats (聊天) and lots of the time we spent together. Please write back to me when you get the chance. Until then, you will remain in my thoughts.
Lots of love,

B
Outside, it's a cold winter's day. Inside a large shopping centre, people are hanging around. But then, without warning, a pop song starts to play loudly. A teenage boy walks lazily to the centre of the open space, and dances crazily to the music. He's joined by two of his friends, then some of the old people. Within the space of a few seconds, more than sixty people are dancing to the music — all in time and all in step. At first, onlookers are baffled,_then they start smiling and clapping. They now know what they're seeing: a flash mob (快闪).
According to Wikipedia, the term “flash mob” was created by Bill Wasik, an editor at Harper's Magazine, in 2003. Within a year, the phrase had entered the Concise Oxford English Dictionary. Since then, hundreds — possibly thousands — of flash mobs have been carried out around the world, in almost every kind of public space imaginable!
Each flash mob has its own style, but most flash mobs follow a similar formula (方案). Often, the organisers search for willing participants (参与者) using social media. Instructions and dance moves are given through email or video download. There are usually several rehearsals (排练) before the big day.
While it's happening, a few lucky passers-by watch it live. Most people who watch it, however, will see it later online. Some of the most popular flash mobs on YouTube have been watched more than 10 million times. A famous example is MP3 Experiment Eight, a flash mob that took place in New York City in July 2011 with over 3,500 participants. This event differed from normal flash mobs in that much of it was completely silent — and there were no rehearsals.
Flash mobs provide the participants, onlookers and online viewers with a lot of enjoyment and pleasure. For this reason alone, they're a modern, popular art form that should be celebrated.
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。文章介绍了时下很流行的快闪行动。

7.What is special about MP3 Experiment Eight?
A.It was played online.
B.It was the earliest flash mob.
C.It was played with no sound.
D.It was most accepted by the audience.
答案与解析:C 细节理解题。根据第四段中的A famous example is MP3 Experiment Eight... much of it was completely silent可知,MP3 Experiment Eight这次快闪行动的特别之处在于其没有声音。

Dear Health Expert,
I have got a problem and I need to ask for your help. I feel I am too fat. What's worse, I am putting on weight all the time. I am very worried about my figure and how I look. I even fear that some of my classmates call my names.
At one time, I tried to work out in a gym two or three times, but I finally gave up because I had no time for it and always felt very tired after doing exercise. Once I tried going on a diet. However, after about a week, I could not go on because I felt so hungry that I was not able to continue my studies.
Thus, I don't know what I should do. Could you be kind enough to give me some good advice?
Best wishes.
Yours,
Xiaowei
