Her teacher finally gave up and stopped the lessons, but Alice refused to give in, and one day she decided to give a concert and invited her teacher to attend.
The teacher was very worried about what to say after the concert. She knew it would be terrible and it was. She didn’t want to tell a lie, but she didn’t want to hurt Alice’s feelings either. Finally, she got an idea and went backstage to greet her pupil.

In the United States the most popular form of folk dancing since the early days has been square dancing. In early times, when men and women worked in groups to build a barn or harvest crops, they danced when the work was done. The music came from the violin for the most part, but if there was no one to play a musical instrument, clapping(拍手)was used to produce the rhythm by which to dance. The early settlers danced in a store, in a barn, or in a farm kitchen.
A square is formed by four couples who stand facing the centre of the square. Each couple stand on one side of the square, the boy on the left and the girl on the right.
The caller is an important part of the dance, since he tells the dancers which steps to do. If the dancers do not know the steps, he teaches them. It takes time to learn to be a good caller, and good callers are always in demand.
These are the names of some of the steps the dancers do: Form a square; Circle; Honour your partner; Swing your partner; Form a star. There are many more. As the callers tell the dancers what to do next, they move to form the pattern he calls.
Large or small numbers of people can dance at one time. Sometimes 800 or 1,000 people may be dancing at the same time. Or there may be only one square of eight people.
Special clothes are worn by some when dancing. This makes the dance more colourful to watch. The special clothes vary from place to place. Women often wear full skirts of various colours with a pretty blouse. Men have coloured shirts and western trousers that they wear only when square dancing. In some country areas, everyone wears his best clothes.
Today in some parts of the United States you will find some schools, clubs, or a group that is square dancing for fun.
6. From the passage we know that square dancing came from_______.
A. the clubs B. the schools C. the countryside D. big cities
7. How many steps do the dancers usually do while square dancing?
A. At most four. B. At least five.
C. At most eight. D. At least one thousand.
8. Which of the following statements is true?
A. The caller is the most beautiful person in square dancing.
B. It’s easy to learn to be a good caller.
C. The caller plays an important role in square dancing.
D. There are always enough good callers.
9. For what purpose do the American men and women dance?
A. For money. B. For fun.
C. To celebrate their harvest. D. To show off their beautiful clothes.
10. If 1,000 people dance at the same time,how many squares can be formed?
A. More than 100 squares. B. Less than 100 squares.
C. 800 squares. D. Only one big square.

Ⅲ. 单项选择,从A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选择最佳答案完成句子
1. D
解析:电影院下个礼拜要竣工,所以现在是“正在被修建”,应该选现在进行时态的被动:
be being done。注意被动语态的结构:一般现在时be done,现在完成时has / have been done,
一般将来时will be done。
2. B
解析:发生是take place,该短语无被动语态。工厂是“被建立”,所以选择完成时的被动:
have been set up。
3. B
解析:这是个倒装句。正常语序是“Two large portraits hang on the wall”。陈述句的结构是
“主语+谓语”,完全倒装句的结构是“谓语+主语”。注意该句介词短语放句首,句子要
构成完全倒装。例如:A temple stands on top of the mountain. On top of the mountain stands a
temple. 不能选hanged是因为hang表示“悬挂”的意思时,过去式应为hung,而非hanged。
4. C
解析:“某人被认为做了某事”用be considered to do。很明显,“电脑已经发明”,所以用
to have invented。试比较:He is said to go abroad next year.(据说他明年将要出国。)和He
is said to have gone abroad.(据说他已经出国了。)
5. B
解析:句子的主语地球是“被看”,所以第一空用过去分词seen;with + n. + doing表示
主动,水覆盖70% 的地球表面,用covering。注意with结构的构成:
①with + 宾语 + 形容词
He often sleeps with the windows open. 他常开着窗睡觉。
②with + 宾语 + 副词
He stood before his teacher with his head down. 他低着头站在老师面前。
③with + 宾语 + 名词
He died with his daughter yet a schoolgirl. 他去世时,女儿还是个小学生。
④with + 宾语 + 介词短语
She said goodbye with tears in her eyes. 她含着眼泪说了声再见。
⑤with + 宾语 + -ing短语
He fell asleep with the lamp burning. 他没熄灯就睡着了。
⑥with + 宾语 + 过去分词(短语)
All the afternoon he worked with the door locked. 整个下午他都锁着门在房里工作。
⑦with + 宾语 + 不定式(短语)
With so many people to help us, we are sure to finish it in time. 有这么多人帮忙,我们一定能
按时完成。
6. D
解析:neither两者都不,可以排除A和B;none(三者或三者以上)没有一个;这是一
个非限制性定语从句,故选D。
7. A
解析:shape 的意思为“塑造,影响,形成某种看法、信仰”。如:People’s political beliefs
are often shaped by what they read in the newspaper.(人们的政治信仰常常是在他们所读报
纸内容的影响下形成的。)其他三个词不合句义,form形成,构成;lay放置;make制造;
故选A。
8. B
解析:attach importance / significance to的意思是“认为某些事物很重要”。如:People attach
too much importance to economic forecasts.(人们把经济预测看得过于重要。)
9. A
解析:break away from 的意思是“摆脱坏习惯或者某人的控制”;free from的意思是“不
受约束”;break up破裂,如:If a parent dies, the family may break up.(如果父母中有一人
去世,这个家庭就会破裂。)break off打断,如:Fay told her story, breaking off now and then
to wipe the tears from her eyes.(费伊讲述自己的故事,不时停下来擦去眼里的泪水。)根据
句义,选A。

他三个词的意思不合句义。

Ⅶ. 阅读理解,根据短文内容选择最佳答案
1. D
解析:根据第一段前两句可以得知选项D是正确的。
2. A
解析:根据第一段第三句可知老师最终不给Alice上课的原因是尽管Alice很努力,但是
根本没有什么进步。
3. C
解析:根据文章可以知道Alice热爱唱歌,尽管老师已经放弃,不再给她上课,但是她自
己并没有放弃,她决定举办演唱会是想证明给大家她可以唱得很好,故选C;其他选项都
与文章不符。
4. B
解析:从文章可以看出老师觉得Alice在演唱方面没有什么天赋,所以不会有发展了,选
项中只有B符合老师的意思。
5. D
解析:因为Alice唱功根本没有进步,所以演唱会肯定不成功。如果老师说谎的话只能是
赞扬她唱得好了,所以选项D符合题目要求。
6. C
解析:由第一段可知square dancing是人们在完成修建畜舍或者收获庄稼后跳的舞,所以
只有countryside符合情境,故选C。
7. B
解析:由第四段可知常跳的舞步至少有五种,故选B。
8. C
解析:选项A文章并未提及,故错误;由第三段最后一句可知成为一个caller需要时间,
并且总是很抢手,所以选项B说很容易是不正确的,选项D说有足够多的callers也是
不符合句义的;由第三段第一句可知选项C是正确的。
9. B
解析:根据第一段可知人们是在劳动之余跳舞,所以是为了娱乐,并不是为了赚钱或者庆
祝等,所以B正确,其他三个选项文章并没有涉及到。同时最后一段也明确告诉读者跳
方步舞是为了娱乐。
10. A
解析:由第二段第一句可知,一个square是由four couples组成的,所以1000个人就应
该组成125个squares,故选A。
