A. is; are B. has; is C. are; is D. have; are
【答案】C
【解析】由题干可知，本句为there be句型，它不能与have/has 连用，排除B、D项；a number of + 复数名词意为＂许多……＂，作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式；the number of + 复数名词/代词意为＂……的数量＂，作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。故选C。

I used to have little passion(激情) in my life. But what happened the other day changed my mind. It was then that I learned how 1 it is to have a passion in life.
That day I went home in Mom’s car. When Mom 2 at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed 3 rags(破旧衣服). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, because I had seen 4 like him before. Those people usually looked unhappy and hopeless.
But this man was 5 in some way. He was not sitting down with a 6 expression. Instead, he had a 7 in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious(珍贵的) thing he had. ＂Mom, why does that man have a radio 8 he’ s homeless?＂ I asked.
＂He 9 it,＂ she replied.
＂But why doesn’ t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He 10 something that he didn’ t need.＂
＂Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important.＂
That man must care so much about 11 that he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that 12 is the key to life.
Since then I am always thinking of 13 is truly important in life. A home, a meal, clothes—these things are 14 part of the life. What we often forget is that we all need a joy, a light in a 15 day. We all need a passion which gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.

A
I used to be selfish(自私的), I should say. But one moment changed me.
I was on my lunch break and had left the school to get something to eat .On the way, I saw a man playing the guitar, with a hat in front of him. I had some coins in my pocket, but I would not give them to him, thinking to myself he would use the money to buy drugs or alcohol（毒品或酒）. He looked like that type of man, young and ragged. But I then realized I had no right to place myself above him just because he was praying for money.
I stopped and dropped all the coins into his hat, and he smiled at me, I watched for a while. Selfish as it sounds, I expected something more to come from that moment—like a feeling of happiness or so. But nothing happened, I walked off. ＂It seemed to be a waste of money ,＂I thought.
On my way home at the end of the day, I saw the man again and he was packing up .I watched him pick up the hat and walk to a store. There he poured the all the money into a box, which was used to collect money for the people after an earthquake(地震). He was praying for charity(慈善)!
Now I give any coin I have to charity boxes and enjoy the feeling of giving.
1. What did the writer use to be like?

2. When did the writer see a man playing for money?

B. The writer felt very happy after giving the money to the man.
C. The writer saw the man twice that day.

A. is a friend of the young man B. enjoys helping others

B
I used to have a friend called Matilda. We were together at secondary school. When we were 16, she moved because of her father’s job, but we kept in touch. We used to write long letters to each other. I went to stay with her a couple of times too. We lost contact(联系) after university. I’d love to see her again because we used to be really good friends.
I used to hate a couple of teachers at school, but I think the one I hated the most was my French teacher. He was really terrible. I don’t think he liked children or even teaching. He used to be impatient with us and he didn’t explain things well. I failed French — it was the only subject I ever failed at school.
I used to play a lot of squash(壁球), but I recently started playing tennis and now I like it better. The problem with squash is that it’s pretty hard and maybe I’ m just not strong enough to play it. Also the friend I used to play with always beat me. The great thing about tennis is that it’s outdoors so I can enjoy the fresh air. It’s less competitive and more fun. The only problem is that you can’t play when it rains.

参考答案
基础训练
Ⅰ. 用单词的适当形式填空。
1. personal 2. sadness 3. carelessness
4. decision 5. to take 6. taking
Ⅱ. 单项选择。
1. C 【解析】考查five-year-old作前置定语的用法。five-year-old这类复合词可以用作形容词，意为＂五岁的＂，表示计量的名词总是用单数形式。这类结构通常用作前置定语，不用作表语(作表语时可改用five years old这样的形式)。
3. C【解析】由I can’ t see the blackboard clearly＂我看不清黑板＂可推知明明站在那儿的原因是他＂前面＂坐着两个高个子男孩，故答案选C，意为＂在……的前面＂。
4. B【解析】考查形容词辨析。active＂积极的＂；shy＂害羞的＂；honest＂正直的＂；outgoing＂外向的＂。由后半句句意＂但是现在她喜欢结识新朋友并且喜欢和他们交谈＂可知，前半句意思应为＂萨莉过去很害羞＂。故选B。
5. C 【解析】考查主谓一致的用法。依据前半句中的谓语动词＂is(一般现在时)＂可推断出后半句的时态也应是一般现在时，故排除B、D两项；短语＂a number of…＂后的谓语动词用复数形式，故选C。
6. A【解析】句意：不要放弃你的希望，再试一次。give up放弃；look up在（字典，书等中）查找；wake up醒来；make up编造。结合句意可知选A。
7. A 【解析】本题意为＂没有那么多的地方来放这些书，因此你最好将它们放在书架上＂。room在此处意为＂空间＂，是不可数名词，应该用much来修饰，由此可排除C、D两项；much too用来修饰形容词或副词，故排除B项。选A。
8. B【解析】析How is he?＂他身体怎么样?＂；What does he look like?＂他长相如何?＂；What does he like?＂他喜欢什么?＂。根据答语＂他个子很高＂可知是描述长相，故选B。
9. D【解析】由these days和答语中的she is可知，这里是一般现在时，故mother’ s是mother is的缩略形式，再根据＂前肯后否＂的原则可知这里应该用isn’ t she。
III. 句型转换。
1. does；look like 2. isn’ t it 3. from time to time
4. an eighteen-year-old 5. didn’ t dare 6. how to deal with
7. What did; use to 8. didn’ t she 9. Did; use to
10. give up
