You may know your mother, but how well do you really know Mother’s Day? Cards, flowers, sales, TV specials, and a day off for someone who really deserves it—those are what probably come to mind for many people when they think of Mother’s Day. But there’s more to the story.
The earliest Mother’s Day celebrations were held during spring in ancient Greece. The celebrations honored Rhea, the Mother of the gods. During the 1600’s, England celebrated a day called Mothering Sunday. On this day even servants were given the day off to spend with their families. A mothering cake was even served with the family meal.
In the US, Mother’s Day began in 1872 when Julia Ward Howe, who wrote the words to the famous song The Battle Hymn of the Republic, suggested it as a day devoted to peace. But it didn’t really become popular until 1907 when Anna Jarvis started a campaign to honor mothers. She believed that mothers could help people get over the pain they experienced during the Civil War. The US isn’t alone in devoting a day to mothers. Many other countries including Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, Japan, and Belgium also honor their mothers in May. Other countries honor their mothers at different times of the year.
Learning more about Mother’s Day and celebrating Mother’s Day are important, but probably not as important as understanding what your own mother, or grandmother, or aunt has really done for you. And that will certainly be appreciated more than one day in a year.
【解题导语】 本文介绍了母亲节的由来及发展历史。

Many people go to school for an education. They learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula. It is usually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didn’t get anything from school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind.
The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions as they read and they did thousands of experiments.
Above all, they knew how to use their brains.

When people want to know about the weather, they usually go to their radios, TVs, newspapers, or to the Internet. However, you can also find many weather signs among wildlife, because of their highly developed senses. Drops in air pressure(压力) produce an effect on small animals in many ways. Mice and deer are good weather indicators. People who spend a lot of time outdoors have observed that, before a storm, field mice come out of their holes and run around. Deer leave high ground and come down from the mountains.
Birds are especially good weather indicators because they also show the effect of a pressure drop in many ways. For example, some birds become irritable(急躁的) and quarrelsome and will fight over a piece of bread. Other birds chirp(叽叽喳喳) and sing just before a storm. It seems that they know they won’t get another chance for an hour or two. Birds also seek safe places before a storm. You will sometimes see birds settling in trees or gathering together on a wire close to a building.Pre-storm low pressure makes the air so thin that birds have difficulty flying.
It is unusual to see many birds flying overhead in the summertime, rather than during the periods in the spring or autumn. Watch for other weather signs if you see this. If they fly in the wrong direction, they may be flying ahead of a storm.
By paying closer attention to some important signs in nature, we can become better prepared for any kind of weather.
【解题导语】 文章主要讲的是动物，如老鼠、鹿、小鸟在天气变化前的不同反应。
7．The word “indicators” in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”．

8．There will be a storm if birds ________．
A．make more noise than usual
B．fly in different directions
C．come down from tall trees
D．share a piece of bread
A 解析：细节理解题。 由第二段中的“irritable(急躁的)”，“quarrelsome”，“chirp(叽叽喳喳)”和“sing”等词可以看出A为正确答案。
9．How can birds sense the coming of a storm?
A．By feeling a drop in air temperature.
B．By noticing the change of wind directions.
C．By feeling a drop in air pressure.
D．By noticing the movements of other animals.

My father is strong and powerful. He and his cousin are the leaders of our pride.The other members are my mother, her sisters, and their children.The area where a pride lives is big! We roar(咆哮) to tell each other where we are and to warn strangers to stay away.
Meet my new baby brother. His name is Leon. See the spots on his fur? We lions are born spotted or striped(有条纹的). As we grow older, the spots gradually disappear.
Lionesses usually spend their entire lives with their birth pride, but Leon will leave when he is about three years old. He’ll run around with a male friend or relative for a few years until they take over a pride of their own.
But for now, we have lots of fun together. We often play and fight for hours, which can help us practice skills that we will need for hunting.
We lions keep ourselves very clean. Just like a house cat, I clean my fur with my tongue. We clean for each other, too, to show we’re friends.
Lions like to sleep for most of the day. We hunt in the cool evening. Female lions hunt more often than male lions. We work together as a team. At the right moment, we attack and kill our prey.

My husband and I used to live in the city. But we often faced a lot of problems there. There was a lot of late-night noise. It was difficult to find parking. And the rent of the apartment was high. Finally, my husband and I decided to move to the suburb(郊区)outside Boston.
We started looking for our new home. It turned out that many other people were also moving to the suburbs and it wasn’t easy to find a nice house there. Finally we went to see a small and dark house. It needed a lot of work. But it was well built and it was on a street where we could walk to Starbucks, restaurants and bus stops. Well, before I knew it, we had made an offer and the house became ours.
On our first night in the house I cried for five hours. I thought we had made the wrong decision and I wanted to go back to the city—the house was smelly and old. And many families and old people lived around it. But after thinking of the problems we had when we were living in the city, I calmed down. Besides, our new home wasn’t that bad，after all. I had a driveway of my own. There were three big bedrooms and a backyard for my dog. Oh，how lovely the sound of nothing was. I changed the house inch by inch and it became a very comfortable home.
We have been in our house for over two years until now and it’s the best move we have ever made. While I’m glad I can drive into the city in fifteen minutes and enjoy all it has offered, I’m always happy to return home.

It’s school time again! You’re probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little afraid on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these “new” worries only stick around for a little while. Let’s find out more about going to a new school.
Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the stuff you’ll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not. Please pay close attention.
You might already know a lot of people in your classes on the first day, but it’s a great day to make a new friend, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don’t. Make the first move and you’ll be glad you did, and so will your new friend!
Seeing friends you haven’t seen in a while can make the first day a good one. You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers(运动鞋). It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you’ll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don’t have time in the morning.

Last July, my parents and I went to visit my aunt and uncle in Seattle, a city on the northwest American coast. Dad did some research and had no difficulty in finding us cheap tickets online.
On the day of our flight, we had to wake up very early. When we checked our bags in, we found that one bag weighed too much, so we had to pay a fine. After that, Dad insisted that we go and have some breakfast at the airport restaurant. We had a lot of fun watching many different people there. Then we realized it was getting late, so we rushed to the gate. It took one hour for everyone to get on the plane, but finally the door was shut and we were on our way!
I think my favorite experience during our trip was our visit to Mount Rainier, a volcano near Seattle. It was nothing like I had expected. Before we left, my aunt lent us hats to protect us from getting sunburned, so I supposed that it would be very hot. Imagine my surprise when we drove up the mountain and I discovered the top was covered in snow and ice!
My uncle led us to a small path beyond the main trails to increase our chances of seeing wildlife. We walked over a small hill, and suddenly before us there appeared a field of snow. Small wild flowers grew up through the snow; underneath the snow we could hear rushing water—a small stream. Little animals stood still to avoid being noticed; tiny birds rose into the air. It was the most beautiful sight that I’d ever seen.

A
The other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7：30 p．m. Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song.
By 9：45, everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11：00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left hungry and angry.
Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6：30 －8：30 p．m. means drinks only, go out to dinner afterwards; 8：00 p．m. or 8：30 p．m. means possible dinner, but 9：30 p．m. and any time thereafter means no food, eat beforehand, roll up late.
But this is not always the case. If asked to a students’ party at 6：30 p．m., it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight, if at all, and no one cares. Being the first to arrive—looking eager—is social death. When my mother is asked to a party at 6：30, she likes to be there, if not on time, then no later than seven. My age group(late thirties) falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we’re young, we’re probably closer to student-time than grown-up time.
The accepted custom at present is confusing(混乱的), sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every party that precious element(成分) of surprise.
【解题导语】 不同年龄段的人到达晚会的时间不同，对晚会时间的理解也不同。不遵从社会习惯，便会出现饿肚子等现象。所以，按社会习俗参加晚会是极为重要。
1．Jane and David’s story is used to show that ________．
A．party-goers usually get hungry at parties
B．party invitations can be confusing
C．people should ask for food at parties
D．birthday parties for middle-aged people are dull
B 解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段的句子“Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently.”可知，他们的经历说明邀请函上面的文字说明通常是含糊不清的，故选B。
2．For some young people, arriving on time for a students’ party will probably be considered ________．
A．very difficult
B．particularly thoughtful
C．friendly and polite
D．socially unacceptable
D 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的句子“Being the first to arrive—looking eager—is social death.”可知，准时到达同学的聚会被认为是社会不能接受的，故选D。
3．According to the writer, people in their late thirties ________．
A．are likely to arrive late for a party
B．care little about the party time
C．haven’t really grown up yet
D．like surprises at parties
A 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段的句子“My age group (late thirties) falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we’re young, we’re probably closer to student-time than grown-up time.”可知，三十几岁的人到达聚会的时间与年轻的学生到达聚会的时间接近。根据“If asked to a students’ party at 6：30 p．m., it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight...”可知，年轻人参加聚会通常会迟到，故选A。
4．What is the general idea of the text?
A．It’s safe to arrive late just when food is served.
B．It’s wise to eat something before going to a party.
C．It’s important to follow social rules of party-going.
D．It’s necessary to read invitations carefully.
C 解析：主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The accepted custom at present is confusing(混乱的), sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every party that precious element(成分) of surprise.”尽管那些约定俗成的风俗让人感到困惑，但是这些风俗确实给聚会增添了惊喜的成分，可知，作者认为人们还是应该遵守参加聚会的风俗习惯的，故选C。

I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as Mother sat doing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.
Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk，” she said again, “is for Elizabeth.”
I never saw her angry, never saw her cry, I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. It never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional”. But she lived “on the surface”. As years passed and I had my own family, I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way if she chose that she did forgive me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace—it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.
Now the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside—a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times. She had given me an answer in a way she chose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇故事性的记叙文。主要讲述了一位表面冷漠内心善良的母亲如何以自己的行动来真心爱抚自己的子女和家庭。
5．The writer began to love her mother’s desk ________．
A．after Mother died
B．before she became a writer
C．when she was a child
D．when Mother gave it to her
C 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as Mother sat doing letters.”可知，作者身高仅仅够得着看到母亲在桌上写信时就爱上那张书桌。显然，那是孩提时的事。
6．The underlined word “gulf ” in the passage means “________”．
A．deep understanding between the old and the young
B．different ideas between the mother and the daughter
C．free talks between mother and daughter
D．part of the sea going far in land
B 解析：词义猜测题。根据文中的“I was ‘too emotional’. But she lived ‘on the surface’．”可以推断，作者与母亲有着相反的个性。一个易动感情，一个表面冷漠。作者认为她们之间肯定有着“沟壑”。
7．What did Mother do with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness?
A．She had never received the letter.
B．For years, she often talked about the letter.
C．She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in all her life.
D．She read the letter again and again till she died.
D 解析：推理判断题。根据母亲最后留给作者自己的书桌以及文章中的“...I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside...and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times.”可知，作者在书桌里发现了自己写给母亲的信，被折叠过多次，由此推断母亲反反复复看过这封信，但直至去世时还没回信。
8．What’s the best title of the passage?
A．My Letter to Mother
B．Mother and Children
C．My Mother’s Desk
D．Talks between Mother and Me
C 解析：主旨大意题。文章由母亲书桌话题开篇，然后讲述女儿对母亲的误解，女儿乞求母亲的原谅，最后以母亲去世前留给女儿书桌结尾，揭示母亲对女儿的爱。所以贯穿全文的线索是“母亲的书桌”。

What Are Clouds?
A cloud is made of water drops in the sky. There are many kinds of clouds, which are an important part of Earth’s weather.
How do clouds form?
The sky can be full of water, But most of the time you can’t see the water.1.________They have turned into a gas called water vapor. As the water vapor goes higher in the sky, the air gets cooler. The cooler air causes the water droplets to start to stick to things like bits of ice.
What are some kinds of clouds?
2．________One way is by where they are found in the sky. Some clouds are high up in the sky. Low clouds form closer to Earth’s surface. Middle clouds are found between low and high clouds. Another way clouds are named is by their shape. Cirrus clouds are high clouds. They look like feathers(羽毛).3.________These clouds look like huge cotton balls in the sky. Stratus clouds are low clouds. They cover the sky like bed sheets.
4．________
Most of the water in clouds is in very small droplets. The droplets are so light they float(飘浮) in the air. Sometimes those droplets join with other droplets. Then they turn into larger drops. When that happens, gravity(重力) causes them to fall to Earth. We call the falling water drops “rain”．
Why do scientists study clouds?
Clouds are important for many reasons. Rain and snow are two of those reasons. At night, clouds reflect(反射) heat and keep the ground warmer. During the day, clouds make shade(阴凉处) that can keep us cooler. 5.________
A．What causes rain?
B．Why are clouds white?
C．Cumulus clouds are middle clouds.
D．Clouds get their names in two ways.
E．The drops of water are too small to see.
F．However, other planets have clouds that are not made of water.
G．Studying clouds helps scientists better understand Earth’s weather.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要就云的形成、种类及其重要性等情况进行了介绍。
1．E 解析：由该空前后的most of the time you can’t see the water和They have turned into a gas called water vapor.可知，天空中的这些水滴十分微小，它们已经转化成了水蒸气，所以很难被看见，故选E项。
2．D 解析：由该段中的One way is by where they are found in the sky.和Another way clouds are named is by their shape.可知，这里是说给云命名的两种方式，故选D项。
3．C 解析：由该空前后的Cirrus clouds are high clouds.和Stratus clouds are low clouds.可知，位于高低云层之间的云还没有介绍，故选C项。
4．A 解析：本段主要介绍了雨的形成过程，故用A项作为小标题最恰当。
5．G 解析：由本段标题Why do scientists study clouds？可知，G项内容符合此处语境。

When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city.We lived on a farm; in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world.As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital.However, I soon discovered that city life has its problems, too.
One big disadvantage is money.It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing.Another disadvantage is pollution.I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside.Then there is the problem of traveling round.Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams.One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.
Of course there are advantages.First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment.Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position.Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising—and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.
Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens or twenties.However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable.I certainly hope to move back there soon.

With⑥ December our excitement grew each day—as we opened⑦ the new year calendar⑧， Christmas cards arrived in the post，Christmas lights appeared⑨ in the streets, and we attended⑩ the town carol? service.And of course, there was snow everywhere.Enough snow to make snowmen, and to have exciting snowball fights in the school playground?.

圣诞节的回忆
圣诞节对我来说总是始于寒冷多风的11月中旬。我和姐姐爱丽丝坐在火炉前，给圣诞老人写信，把所有我们想要的礼物都告诉他。我们把信交给妈妈邮寄前，在信封上认真地写上“圣诞老人，北极”。
12月到来，我们一天比一天兴奋——我们打开新年日历，信箱里寄来了圣诞贺卡，街上挂起了圣诞灯，我们参加圣诞诗歌礼拜。当然，到处都是雪。雪多得足够我们在学校操场上堆雪人、令人兴奋地打雪仗。
On Christmas Eve, the whole family? helped to decorate? the house，put up? the Christmas tree, the decorations? and the balloons.Then, in the afternoon, when Auntie Kathleen and my two cousins arrived?， everything was ready.Before we went to bed?， we left some wine and biscuits for Father Christmas and then put our stockings? at the end of our beds.We tried to stay awake? as long as possible to see Father Christmas but the next thing we knew it was morning.Christmas morning！

At the bottom of the bed was the stocking, now full of all kinds of small presents and sweets.Christmas morning was bright and sunny and, after church，my cousin David and I went out into the garden to play with our new presents.Lunch was always late, but what a lunch! A big turkey with all the vegetables followed by Christmas pudding. I like turkey breast the best.I put so much food in my mouth sometimes that it was hard to swallow. We sang Christmas carols happily, laughed at jokes, put on silly paper hats and laughed again.
at the bottom of...在……底部
play with摆弄；玩弄

After lunch, the adults slept on the sofas in front of the Queen’s speech on television while we all played cards.Then we had tea, with a huge Christmas cake covered with snowmen. It didn’t seem possible, but we carried on eating.By bedtime all of the children were very tired.As soon as we turned off the light, we all fell into a deep, happy sleep.

fall into a deep, happy sleep进入甜美的梦乡
午餐后，电视上正在播放女王的电视讲话，大人们在电视机前的沙发上睡了，而我们都在玩扑克牌。之后我们喝茶，吃着雪人蛋糕。虽然有点不可能，但是我们一直在吃。到该上床睡觉时，所有孩子都很累了。刚一关灯，我们就都进入了香甜的梦乡。

阅读理解
Friendships are very important to teenagers. Friendships provide teenagers with chances to develop social skills. Teenagers can learn how to end a fight and still remain friends. Friends provide fun and excitement for teenagers through games. Friends also give advice to one another. Teenagers talk through lots of problems with their friends. Friendships also provide help during times of difficulty. It is helpful for teenagers to have a friend who is going through the same situations.
What happens when youth don’t have friends? Teenagers without friends are usually more lonely and unhappy. They will have lower levels of grades and lower confidence. As they get older, they are more apt to drop out of school. As kids move into their teenager years, friends and friendships play an important role in teenager life as a way of getting personal enjoyment and social learning.
Most teenagers will have friends who parents either like or dislike. However, it is important to keep in mind that one way teenagers can truly learn how to choose and keep friends is through personal experience, which is sure to have some mistakes. Parents should not be too hard on teenagers when they choose friends who are not good enough or when their friendship fails. Remember, every social experience helps teenagers to learn about different people and improve social skills.
As parents, it is important to encourage friendships among teenagers. However, it is important to know who your teenager’s friends are and to communicate openly about changes in friendships with your teenagers.

Are you scared about moving up to senior high school? It can be a new experience，but you shouldn’t worry. We’ve put together a guide to help you in the first week.
You’re not alone
Remember everybody else in your year is in the same boat. They may not realize it, but they’re just as nervous as you are. Moving to senior high school is an opportunity, not a problem. Things are different and all you need to do is be polite and learn the new rules.
Teachers are ready to help
If you’re unsure what to do or are worried about anything，then ask for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they’re experienced in helping new students. Some senior high schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this, then you will be paired with an older student. He/She will help you if you have any problems or questions.
All change
There are lots of differences between junior high school and senior high school. You’ll have a homework diary or a student planner. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days, so make sure you get organized. Make sure you have a copy of your school timetable written down so you know which rooms your classes are in and on which days you will have your different subjects.
Other points
If you’ve got an older brother or sister at the school, then ask them for advice. Be yourself! It sounds simple, but people will know you much better if you just act naturally.Having early nights makes a difference and you’ll find it easier to get up in the morning!

Every people uses its own special word to show its ideas and feelings. Some of these expressions are commonly used for many years. Others are popular for just a short time. One such American expression is “Where’s the beef？” It is used when something is not as good as it is said to be. In the early 1980s “Where’s the beef？” was one of the most popular expressions in the United States. It seemed as if everyone using it at the time.
Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and food is more popular in America than a hamburger made from beef. In the 1960s a businessman named Ray began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers at a low price. Ray called this “McDonald’s”. Ray became one of the richest businessmen at last in America.
Other business people watched his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company called “Wendy’s” said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonald’s or anyone else. The Wendy’s Company began to use the expression “Where’s the beef？” to make people know that Wendy’s hamburgers were the biggest. The Wendy’s television advertisement showed three old women eating hamburgers. The bread that covered the meat was very big, but inside there was only a bit of meat. One of the women said she would not eat a hamburger with such a little piece of beef. “Where’s the beef？” she shouted in a funny way. The advertisement for Wendy’s hamburger restaurants was successful. As we said, it seemed everyone began using the expression “Where’s the beef ？”．

一、被动语态
1．被动语态的构成形式
被动语态通常有八种时态的被动形式，被动语态由be＋过去分词构成，be随时态的变化而变化。各种时态的被动语态形式为：
时 态
被动语态
例 句
一般
现在时
am/is/are＋p．p.
Visitors are requested not to touch the exhibits. 游客被要求不能触摸展品。
一般
过去时
was/were＋p．p.
I was given ten minutes to decide whether I should reject the offer.
我被给予十分钟决定是否拒绝此项报价。
一般
将来时
(1)will/shall＋be＋p.p.
(2)am/is/are＋going to＋be＋p.p.
Hundreds of jobs will be lost if the factory closes.
如果工厂关闭的话，数以百计的工作会丢失。
现在
进行时
am/is/are＋being＋p.p.
Some animals are not being protected well enough.
有些动物没有受到很好的保护。
过去
进行时
was/were＋being＋p.p.
A meeting was being held when I was there.
我在那里的时候一项会议正在召开。
现在
完成时
have/has＋been＋p.p.
All the preparations for the task have been completed, and we’re ready to start. 这项任务的所有准备工作都完成了，我们可以准备开始了。
过去
完成时
had＋been＋p.p.

到去年年底，另一座体育馆在北京完工。
过去
将来时
would/should＋be＋p.p.
The news would be sent to the soldier’s mother as soon as it arrived.
只要它一到达，消息就会送给这位战士的妈妈。
2.谓语动词的主动形式表示被动意义
(1)英语中有很多动词如break，catch，clean，drive，lock，open，sell，read，write，wash等，当它们被用作不及物动词来描述主语的特征时，常用其主动形式表示被动意义，主语通常是物。常用结构：动词(表示主语的属性特征)＋副词(well，badly，easily，smoothly)。
This kind of cloth washes well.
这种布料很好洗。
主动语态表被动强调的是主语的特征，而被动语态则强调外界作用造成的影响。
试比较：The door won’t lock.(指门本身有毛病)
The door won’t be locked.(指不会有人来锁门，指“门没有锁”是人的原因)
(2)表示“发生、 进行”的不及物动词和短语，如：happen, last, take place, break out, come out, come about, come true, run out, give out, turn out等以主动形式表示被动意义。
How do the newspapers come out?
这些报纸是如何印出来的呢？
(3)系动词没有被动形式，但有些表示感受、 感官的连系动词feel, sound, taste, book, feel等在主系表结构中常以主动形式表示被动意义。常用结构：表示状态特征的连系动词＋adj./n.。
Your reason sounds reasonable.
你的理由听起来合理。
3．被动语态与系表结构的区别
当“be＋过去分词”作被动语态时表示主语承受的动作； 作系表结构时表示主语的特点或所处的状态，be后面的过去分词是表语，相当于形容词。其区分办法如下：
(1)如果强调动作或句中有介词by引导出动作的执行者，该句一般为被动语态，否则为系表结构。
The glass is broken.(系表结构)
The glass was broken by the boy.(被动语态)
(2)如果句中有地点、 频率或时间状语时，一般为被动语态。
The door is locked.(系表结构)
The door has already/just been locked.(被动语态)
(3)被动语态除用于一般时态和完成时态外，还可以用于其他各种时态，而系表结构中的系动词be只有一般时态和完成时态。
二、 情态动词
1．can的用法
(1)表示能力。
Her mother can speak French. 她妈妈会说法语。
(2)表示客观可能性。
Anybody can make mistakes. 任何人都可能犯错误。
(3)表示许可(多用于口语)。
Can I go now？ 我可以走了吗？
(4)表示请求。在这种语境下，使用could比用can语气更显委婉客气。could此时和can没有时间上的差别，它主要用于疑问句，不用于肯定句，因此回答时要改用can。
—Could I come here again tomorrow?
——我明天还能来这里吗？
—Yes，you can.(No, I’m afraid not.)
——是的，可以。(不，恐怕不行。)
(5)表示惊异、 怀疑、 不相信(主要用于否定句、 疑问句或感叹句)。
This can’t be done by him. 这不可能是他做的。
(6)表示推测。can表示理论上存在的可能性； 在表示否定的推测时，一般用can’t。
He’s just had his lunch.He can’t be hungry.
他刚吃过午饭，不会饿的。
2．have to与must的用法
have to着重强调客观需要，能用于现在时、 过去时或将来时。而must表示“必须，应该”时，强调主观看法，只有现在时形式，否定式是must not/mustn’t，must开头的问句，其否定回答要用needn’t或don’t have to代替。
Mother is out, so I have to look after the shop.
妈妈不在家，因此我不得不照看商店。
We must find a good method to learn computer well.
我们必须找一个学好电脑的方法。
3．ought to的用法
ought to表示义务和责任(比should语气要强)。
(1)用于第一人称，表示有责任或有必要去做某事，与should相比，语气较弱。
I really ought to phone my mother.
我确实应该给妈妈打个电话。
(2)用于第二、 三人称，表示建议或劝告。
You ought to take care of yourself. 你应该照顾自己。
(3)表示对现在或将来某种可能性的推测。
Tom ought to be home now. 汤姆现在该到家了。
(4)后接动词不定式完成式，表示对过去存在的某种可能性的推测，或指过去该做而未做的事情，意思是“早应该，本应该”。若是否定句，则表示发生了不该发生的事。ought的否定形式直接加not构成，疑问式将ought提到句首构成。
You ought not to have allowed the child to go alone.
你本不应该让孩子一个人去。

如何写叙事类记叙文
文体感知
叙事类记叙文通常要将时间、 地点、 人物、 事件、 原因和结果等六个要素交代清楚。好的记叙文具有描述事件具体、 人物形象逼真、 故事生动感人、 材料表现中心和写作主旨明确等特征。高考英语基础写作中的叙事类短文也需要具有记叙文写作的一般特点，但要求相对比较低，其考查重点在语言运用正确、 句子连贯通顺、 信息点表述完整等方面。写作时要注意以下几个方面的问题：
1．严格按照基础写作的要求完成各个信息点，不要为了文章的生动而随意添加信息。
2．信息点的表述不要完全按照题目所给的顺序，要适当重组信息点。
3．记叙文写作的时态多数是用一般过去时，但也要注意灵活运用其他时态。
4．叙事类记叙文的话题通常和中学生的生活阅历有关，如校园生活、 旅游、 交通等。
常用句式
1．I’m trying to find...
2．I’m afraid we are out of...
3．I can’t help doing...
4．Some are doing A, others are doing B, and still others are doing

There was a boy in India who was sent by his parents to a boarding school. Before being sent away this boy was the brightest student in his class. He was at the top in every competition. He was a champion.
But the boy changed after leaving home and attending the boarding school. His grades started dropping. He hated being in a group. He was lonely all the time. And there were especially dark times when he felt like killing himself. All of this was because he felt worthless and that no one loved him.
His parents started worrying about the boy. But even they did not know what was wrong with him. So his dad decided to travel to the boarding school and talk with him.
They sat on the bank of the lake near the school. The father started asking him casual questions about his classes, teachers and sports. After some time his dad said，“Do you know son, why I am here today？”
The boy answered back，“to check my grades？”
“No, no，” his dad replied，“I am here to tell you that you are the most important person for me. I want to see you happy. I don’t care about grades. I care about you. I care about your happiness. YOU ARE MY LIFE.”
These words caused the boy’s eyes to fill with tears. He hugged his dad.They didn’t say anything to each other for a long time.
Now the boy had everything he wanted.He knew there was someone on this earth who cared for him deeply. He meant the world to someone. And today this young man is in college at the top of his class and no one has ever seen him sad!
Thanks a lot dad.YOU ARE MY LIFE.

We were late as usual. My husband had insisted on watering the flowers in the garden by himself, and when he discovered that he couldn’t manage he asked me for help at the last moment. So now we had an hour to get to the airport. Luckily, there were not many cars or buses on the road and we were able to get there just in time.
We checked in and went direct to a big hall to wait for our flight(航班) to be called. We waited and waited but no announcement(通知) was made. We asked for information and the girl there told us that the plane hadn’t even arrived yet. In the end there was another announcement telling us that passengers waiting for Flight LJ108 could get a free meal voucher(餐券) and that the plane hadn’t left Spain for technical reasons. We thought that meant that it wasn’t safe for the plane to fly. We waited again for a long time until late in the evening when we were asked to report again. This time we were given free vouchers to spend the night in a nearby hotel.
The next morning after a bad night because of all the planes taking off and landing, we reported back to the airport. Guess what had happened while we were asleep! Our plane had arrived and taken off again. All the other passengers had been woken up in the night to catch the plane, but for some reason or other we had been forgotten. You can imagine how we felt!

语法填空
Living beside an active volcano(火山) means that small earthquakes are not unusual. Everybody here knows 1.____________they feel like, and they come 2.____________no surprise to the local people. For me, they’re a little different, though.
What do you do when there’s an earthquake? Most people would try to leave the building. I live on 3.____________third floor of a flat with several more stores above me — nobody wants 4.____________(trap) under that after an earthquake. I guess, if an earthquake came, I would probably just panic rather than think about what I needed to do, such as hiding somewhere or 5.____________(run) out of the building.

I have spoken to the local people since the event and, 9.____________(luck), there were no injuries or damage 10.____________(do) by it. But if it had been a real earthquake, I think I would have felt quite differently.
1．what 解析：考查连接词。设空处引导宾语从句，且作介词like的宾语，故填what。
2．as 解析：考查介词。come as no surprise意为“来得不稀奇，发生在意料之中”。
3．the 解析：考查定冠词。序数词前应用定冠词限定，故填the。
4．to be trapped 解析：考查不定式的被动式作宾语的用法。want后跟带to的不定式作宾语，因trap与nobody之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故填to be trapped。
5．running 解析：考查动词-ing形式作宾语的用法。设空处与hiding somewhere并列作such as的宾语，故填running。
6．that/which 解析：考查关系代词。设空处引导限制性定语从句修饰先行词earthquake，且在从句中作主语，故填that / which。
7．frightened 解析：考查形容词作表语的用法。设空处作表语，表示“受惊吓的”，故填frightened。
8．lasted 解析：考查一般过去时。由语境可知，此处描述的是发生在上周的事情，应用一般过去时，故填lasted。
9．luckily 解析：考查副词。设空处作状语修饰分句there were no injuries ... by it，故填luckily。
10．done 解析：考查过去分词作定语的用法。设空处作后置定语修饰injuries or damage，因do与injuries or damage之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故填done。

Debby Harris says she would never have started going to the Glastonbury Festival if her friend who runs a food stall(小吃摊) hadn’t needed a hand a few years back. “I thought it would just be all noise, and I never liked rock music.” Now she says she would pay her friend to allow her to work on her stall! “The tickets sell like hot cakes, so it’s the best way of making sure I can get to the five－day festival in June，” she points out.
Nick Hendon has been going to the Cambridge Folk Festival, which takes place over a long weekend in summer at Cherry Hinton Hall, for over twenty years. His favourite festival area is the Club Tent where, as well as the invited artists, members of the audience(观众) can get up and perform. “My wife usually takes part. She has a beautiful voice，” he says proudly.
Joan Mitchell does her best to get to the International Eisteddfod, a dance and music festival which takes place every year during the second week of July in Wales. The festival is also famous for the final Sunday Evening Gala concert which usually has some of the biggest names in opera(歌剧) as guest performers. “I’ve seen Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, James Galway and Montserrat Caballe, but no one could ever match up to Luciano Pavarotti. He was truly breathtaking！”
Graham Crosby tries to get to as many concerts as possible during the eight－week summer season of the Proms festival every year. The Proms is the largest classical(古典的) music festival in the world. “The atmosphere(氛围) is much more relaxed than at other classical concerts. In fact, the audience sometimes behave more like rock fans, jumping up and down to the music，which is really exciting.”

2．Who enjoys an event in which festival－goers can take part?
A．Graham Crosby.
B．Debby Harris.

D．Joan Mitchell.
C 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的His favourite festival area is the Club Tent where, as well as the invited artists, members of the audience(观众) can get up and perform.可知，Nick Hendon很喜欢剑桥民歌节中观众可以参与的环节。

Scientists have been working to grow meat “in vitro”， or in a laboratory, for many years. In the laboratory, they mix cells(细胞) from a horse and a pig. They feed the cells to help them increase in number and grow into a small piece of meat.
Right now，the meat that scientists have made is very small and looks gray because in vitro meat does not need blood to grow. But this is not its only problem. It takes a long time for the meat to grow and scientists do not know how to make a large amount(数量). It also costs a lot of money to make in vitro meat. Making enough for one meal would cost DS| 250，000.
Although producing in vitro meat has many problems, scientists continue to work because in vitro meat would have many advantages. Since we have 7，000，000，000 people on the planet to feed, in vitro meat can help lower the need for the earth’s resources(资源)．
Besides, “Moving the production of meat from farms to laboratories would help cut down the huge amount of harmful (有害的) gases produced by farm animals，” says reporter Nick Collins.
In vitro meat could solve(解决) many of the problems of animal meat. But can humans eat this in vitro meat? Scientists do not know if it even tastes like real meat. Because of food research laws, they are not yet able to taste their meat. But they hope someday people can buy it in their local market. They say it is real meat and it is just made in a different way.
A lot of people are still worried about in vitro meat. However, it will be years before the meat is ready to sell. Kate Shepard, a writer for Mother Jones magazine, says, “It will require hard testing before it can be fed to humans. It is still such a new idea that we do not know yet what health problems it may have. Right now, there are no rules for in vitro meat.”
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家在实验室里生产出来一种新的肉类。
4．What are the scientists trying to find out in their experiment?
A．How to get a new kind of animal.
B．How to make a new kind of meat.
C．How to make animal meat taste better.
D．How to greatly increase animals’ numbers.
B 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的Scientists have been working to grow meat “in vitro，” or in a laboratory以及该段接下来介绍科学家是如何提取动物的细胞并生长出肉类可知，科学家想通过实验制造出一种新的肉类。
5．What’s Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A．The ways to improve the experiment.
B．The bad influence the experiment brings.
C．The problems scientists face in the experiment.
D．The difficulty in collecting money for the experiment.

Dear Tom，
I’m very glad to receive your letter. And it’s a pleasure to tell you something about how I spent the National Day holiday.
First, I had a good rest because recently I often felt tired as a result of my heavy study burden as well as lack of sleep and physical exercise. Of course, it took me two days to stay with my grandparents living in the countryside and help them do some housework and tell them what happened to me and my friends. What’s more, I had a trip with my friends to appreciate the beauty of nature and breathe fresh air. What did you do in your summer holidays? I’m looking forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes!
Yours，
Li Ping
