Extracurricular Reading
A. define the secret of success
B. attract readers’ curiosity to read
on
C. ask the readers for solutions
D. persuade the readers to believe in the argument
1. The purpose of the first paragraph is to _______.
PASSAGE 1
B 写作意图题。作者通过一系列的问题开篇,目的在于引起读者对这些问题的思考,从而产生阅读本文的兴趣。选项A “define”是“下定义”的意思,第一段并没有解释、说明“秘密”这个概念,因此不能选A。
A. a life without problems depends on one’s attitude
B. every living person has his own troubles
C. every one will experience success and failure
D. problems will be solved as time goes by
2. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably means that ____ .
B 细节理解题。该句话的意思是:没有烦恼的人生只能是一种幻想——是沙漠中的海市蜃楼,因此选项B 最贴切。
3. Which of the following is NOT true about the solutions to a financial setback?
A. Unwisely ending one’s life will lead to
greater problems.
B. To face the problem positively calls for
courage.
C. One’s positive reaction to the problem
makes the solution better.
D. Drowning oneself in wine is more than a
temporary solution.
D 细节理解题。根据第三段最后1句可得知(借酒消愁,沉溺毒品,自杀)这些消极应对方式只会让问题更为棘手,只是迫在眉睫的问题的临时的 (temporary) 解决方法。选项D意思刚好与此意相反。“more than a temporary solution” 意思是“不仅仅是一个临时性的解决方法”。
A. contributions of positive reactions to success
B. ways to deal with life problems
C. positive reactions to financial setbacks
D. effects on negative reactions
4. The passage is mainly about ____.
A 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段和第二段第1、
2句以及最后一段,得知坚韧的人成功的秘密就
在于乐观面对挫折,全文围绕此中心逐步展开论述;本文不是强调处理生活问题的方法(ways),因此选项B不符合全文重点,不具体;选项C、D仅是文章提及的部分内容,不是全文主旨。
[难句理解] When you control your reaction to the seemingly uncontrollable problem of life, then in fact you do control the problem’s effect on you.
结构分析:when引导的状语从句中,使用形容词uncontrollable修饰名词词组problem of life,并使用副词seemingly进一步修饰形容词uncontrollable,该状语从句的主句使用助动词do强调动词control,以加强语气。
汉语大意:当面对似乎不可操控的人生问题时,你控制住了自己的反应,事实上,你就已经抑制住了该问题对你的影响。
enable sb. to do 使某人能够做某事
resolve vt. 解决
financial adj. 经济的
in the final analysis 总之
solution n. 解决措施
permanent adj. 永恒的

[难句理解]
The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say “no” to almost everything.
结构分析:that引导的表语从句,that不充当成分,无意义,但不能省略。

文章向我们说明了如何记笔记和利用笔记。
1. D 上文提到大多数人相信为了记好笔记,你需要成为一个有条理的和高效的人,而下文却说记好笔记更多的是关于养成良好的习惯和找到一套属于自己的方法,上下文是转折关系,所以应选D。
2. B 根据主题句“要有条理”。上文提到第一件事是整理活页夹,下文提到“但是事实上你每个学期只需做一次,”可知,整理活页夹似乎是一件痛苦的事。

PASSAGE 6
From the time I was seven, I had a dream of
becoming member of the Students’ Union. I
always admire my school leaders for taking
responsibility for all of us. So I dreamed of
being a leader.
Years flew by, and soon I was able to take
part in the elections, hoped I would win.
a
And the reality proved it that I didn’t have a
chance. I wasn’t pretty. Girls in the school hard
knew me. I just did not have which it took to win
a school election. I was upset.
As I cried in my room that evening, I suddenly
took a deeply breath and decided I wouldn’t
stop dreaming. I decided that I would enter for
elections again in his final year at school and
that I will win the election.
短文讲述了作者童年梦想成为学生会的一员,并展望自己在毕业之际赢得选举的故事。
1. 在becoming后加a 表示“……成员之一”用a member of。
2. admire→ admired 因开篇讲述作者过去的事情,故本句动词时态应为过去。
3. hoped→ hoping 分析句子结构可知,本句的谓语部分为was able to take part in…,且前后没有连词故为非谓语,hope与句子的主语I存在主动关系,故用现在分词。
4. And→ But 句子前后是转折关系。
5. 去掉proved后的it 事实证明prove that…。
6. hard→ hardly 此处表达学校里的女生们几乎不知道我,故改为hardly。
7. which→ what 分析句子结构可知,该句子为宾语从句且宾语从句在句中作宾语。
8. deeply→ deep 形容词修饰名词,且take a deep breath为固定短语,意为“深呼吸”。
9. his→ my/the 此处指作者在学校的最后一年,与他没关系。
10. will→ would 连词and前后句子时态应保持一致,故改为would。

Jack joined in the army after middle school. He
did quite well in everything besides shooting, One
day the new soldiers were practiced shooting, and
all of them were doing quite well except Jack.
After he had shot at the target nine times and
had not hit once, the officer shouted at him,
“You’re quite hopeful. Don’t waste your last
bullet! Go behind that wall and shoot yourself
with it!”
Jack went behind the wall, and a few seconds late
the sound of a shot was heard by the officer and
the other soldier. “Heavens!” the officer said “Has
that silly man real done so?” He ran behind the
wall anxiously, and Jack was all right.” I’m sorry’
“Jack said,” but I miss again.”
1. in删掉 参军用join the army,join sth成为其中一员;join in 表示参加活动。
2. besides→ except 因except后的宾语是被排除在外的,此处表示“除了射击,所有的事情他都做得好”。besides表示“除……之外(还有)”。
3. practiced→ practicing 根据句意新士兵正在练习射击,be doing 正在做某事。
4. hit后加 it hit是及物动词,意思是枪击,其宾语应是前面提到的target,故加上it。
5. hopeful→ hopeless 根据句意射不中应是没有希望,故改成hopeless。
6. late→ later 表示几秒钟后用a few seconds later。
7. soldiers 其他的士兵应用复数,故用soldiers。
8. really 在这里应是副词修饰动词,故用really。
9. and→ but 由后一句可知此处表示“但是Peter还好好的”,上下文为转折关系,故用but。
10. missed 根据时态应用一般过去时,故改成missed

Grammar
主语从句、表语从句、宾语从句和同位语从句在复合句中的功能相当于名词,分别作主语、表语、宾语和同位语。因此,这四种从句可以叫作名词性从句。从形式上看,这四种从句和主句之间不用逗号。引导名词性从句的连接词有以下三类:
复习名词性从句
从属连词:that, whether, if (3个)
连接副词:when, where, how, why (4个)
连接代词:who, whom, whose, what, which (5个)
1. That he will succeed is certain.
2. Whether she will go there is not known.
3. What she said is not true.
4. Who broke the window has not been found out.
5. How he escaped is still a mystery.
一、主语从句主语从句在复合句中充当主语。
⑴ 主语从句放在句首往往显得句子头重脚轻,因此通常借助于it作形式主语,把真正的主语从句移到句末。
It is not known who he is.
不知道他是谁。
It does not matter when he leaves.
他什么时候动身都没有关系。
注意:
⑵ 主语从句如果是用连接代词what, whatever, whoever 等引导的表示一个具体的东西或人,这种主语从句不能用it 来替换。
What he said interested me greatly.
Whoever is tired may rest.
⑶ 如果句中作主语的是一个从句,则谓语动词要用单数形式。
How close parents are to their children has a strong influence on the character of the children.父母跟孩子的亲密程度对孩子的性格有着强烈的影响。
How and why he did the experiment is unknown to all.他怎么做那个实验以及他为什么做那个实验无人知晓。
The problem is that he is also short of money.
The problem is whether he will agree to the suggestion or not.
That is what I want to tell you.
It looks as if it is going to rain.
二、表语从句在句子中作系动词的表语的从句叫作表语从句。
三、宾语从句在句中用作宾语的从句叫作宾语从句。除谓语动词可跟宾语从句外,介词、不定式、分词以及某些形容词(如:sure, glad, pleased, certain, afraid, surprised, satisfied等)的后面也可以带宾语从句。
I really feel that he needs more experience.
I want to know whether/if she still lives
there.
I don’t know who all those people are.
I wonder whom he wants to see.
He asked whose handwriting was the best.
注意 :
⑴ 在“动词+宾语+宾语补足语”句型中,若宾语是一个名词性从句,常常借助于it作形式宾语,而把真正的宾语从句移到宾语补足语的后面。
We think it a pity that a man like him should not work harder.
⑵ that 引导的宾语从句通常不能充当介词的宾语,但在介词except和in 后可以跟that 引导的宾语从句。
① I know little about him except that he is an American.
②Men differ from animals in that they can think and speak.
③Theory is valuable in that it can provide a direction for practice.
1._______he said at the meeting astonished
everyone present.
2. _________we will go camping tomorrow depends on the weather.
3. _________ you come or not is up to you.
4. _________ he refused my help surprised me greatly.
5. The fire destroyed_________ was in the building.

本文介绍了四个学习的好习惯。
1. F 此处是首段尾句,下文是四个学习好习惯,F项刚好能回答前句问题(提高分数的方法),又可引出下文四个学习好习惯,故选F。
2. G G项中的“planner、notebook”应该就是该空下一句中“tool”所指,且上下文能够衔接,此处说了两种记作业的工具,而下句则承接起来,无论使用哪种工具都好,关键是记作业非常重要。故选G。
四、七选五阅读
3. C 此处是该段小标题,应能概括该段主要内容。该段主要讲述的是,交流的重要,交流才能清楚地知道功课的要求和考试的考查方向,而提问问题只是交流的一种方法,因此选C不选B。
4. A 此处下文有“Some need…, but others actually…”讲述了不同的学生,需要的最佳学习环境是不同的,因此A符合题意,故选A。
5. D 本段的主要内容是“Try not to put things off”,且此处下文是防止拖延的一种自我暗示的方法,因此D项的问题是和引出下文的方法,同时与小标题呼应,故选D。

四、话题议写
In recent years, studying abroad has been popular. Tens of thousands of Chinese students have gone to foreign countries to study. Many people are trying their best to go abroad.
There are many advantages in attending schools abroad. Firstly, students who have studied abroad can act as mediators between people of different cultures. Secondly, we can learn more advanced knowledge of science and technology from foreign countries. Thirdly, we can learn foreign languages more quickly.
However, there are some disadvantages. Most of the students are too young to live alone. Besides, being far away from their home country, they may feel lonely and homesick. Also, of course, the costs are much higher there than at home. In spite of these, there are more advantages than disadvantages. In my opinion, it is advisable to attend school abroad.
