三、阅读理解(共12分)
I was surprised when I was told that I couldn’t probably walk because my leg was badly hurt in the car accident. I felt that my world was dark and life was hopeless.
During my staying at the hospital, I met a little lovely boy. He often came to my ward(病房) and played with me with his teddy bear(泰迪熊). It still seemed cute though an eye of it had been missing. The boy brought me lots of happiness when I was in the lowest spirits.
One day, the boy put his teddy bear on my bed and asked, “Would you help me take care of the bear, please? Could you help it till I get better?” Before I could reply, he was taken away by his mother.
I had thought that the boy just had a serious cold, so I was sad when I was told that he had cancer and had to start his last period of treatment. I felt sorry for him and lucky for myself. A little boy could be so confident of getting better, why couldn’t I?
The boy didn’t come to my room any more, but I would never forget what he gave to me that day. It was much more than a teddy bear. He also gave me the strength(力量) to fight against difficulties bravely. I would look after the teddy bear forever.

Unit 4 Why don’t you talk to your parents? 单元测试
答案解析
一、【答案】1.A 2.D 3.D 4.A 5.B 6.D 7.A 8.A 9.B 10.A
二、
11.【答案】C
【解析】年轻人更抱怨父母不理解他们,故选C。A、B和D与上下文语境不符。
12.【答案】B
【解析】根据后半句的most parents just don’t believe in their children推断,这里应该是“当出现问题时”,故选B。
13.【答案】D
【解析】根据后文的they think their kids are wrong推断,父母在没有询问原因的情况下,就认为是孩子们的错,故选D。
14.【答案】A
【解析】本句的主语是that后面的句子,因此此处应填入形式主语it,故选A。
15.【答案】D
【解析】父母还记得你儿时曾经犯的错误,因此这里选D,you used to make作定语修饰mistakes。make mistakes为固定搭配,A、B和C项均搭配不当。
16.【答案】B
【解析】本句考查对上下文逻辑关系的理解。他们想要保护你,尽管你不想让他们这么做,故选B。
17.【答案】C
【解析】句意:如果你想要得到更多的自由,请尽量理解你的父母,故选C。
18.【答案】A
【解析】句意:如果你想让他们允许你在外面待到很晚……因此选A,本句的句型是allow sb. to do sth.。
19.【答案】D
【解析】句意:如果你想让他们允许你在外面待到很晚,不要只是说:“其他的孩子都能在外面待到很晚。”故选D。A一般与one连用,one…another…;C项the others后面不能再接名词;B项一般与some连用,“some…others…”。
20.【答案】C
【解析】这里作者列出了孩子应该告诉父母的相关信息,包括做些什么,在哪里以及为什么对自己来说在外面待到很晚很重要,故选C。
三、
21.【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。由第一段第一句话my leg was badly hurt可知答案选C。
22.【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。由第三段中小男孩的连问句“Would…take care of the bear…? Could you help it…?”可知小男孩把这个玩具熊给作者是想让他“照顾”它。
23.【答案】A
【解析】词义猜测题。由第一段最后一句话可知作者的情绪非常糟糕。when I was in the lowest spirits“在我精神最低落的时候”。与此意义相近的是A项。the happiest“最幸福的”,the luckiest“最幸运的”,the most confident“最自信的”。
24.【答案】B
【解析】细节理解题。A项说,作者坚信他会好起来并离开医院,文中没有体现这层含义,只说“I had though…”;C项说,作者为没人关心这孩子而感到难过,文中没有体现;D项说,作者知道这小男孩的病情,陪他玩是为了让他高兴,显然是不对的。故正确答案为B。从倒数第二段最后一句话可得知。
四、【答案】25.D 26.G 27.E 28.B 29.C
五、【答案】30.allow 31.to relax 32.activities 33.communicate 34.doing 35.returned
六、【答案】36.Why not 37.work out 38.get on with 39.compete with
40.pressure development
七、【答案】One possible version:
Dear Daming,
I know your problem. You’ve made two mistakes. First, you used your classmate’s pen without her permission. Second, when you broke the pen, you didn’t tell her the truth. Yes, you must tell her immediately. If you tell her the truth, perhaps she’ll be angry with you, but at least you’ll prove you are honest.
Then I think you should offer to pay. You can use your pocket money to buy a new pen for her. She will realize that you’re truly sorry.
I hope the advice can help you. I’m sure you will make up with her soon.
Yours,
Tom
