I couldn't believe it
I just couldn't believe it.“How could they do this to me?” I screamed to myself as I walked along the icy New York streets to my apartment just a few blocks away.Just a few minutes ago, I was happily working at my job.Meat was on the grill (烤架) and bread was being toasted.
I knew it was a little fishy when Mark called me into his office for a “chat”.Something just didn't seem right.
“This is so hard for me to say,” he said “but we will not need your service any more.Please take off your apron (围裙).Here is your final paycheck.”
Just then, the winter wind whipped (鞭打) onto my face and big snowflakes started to fall on my heavy winter coat.I didn't even know how, but warm tears started to drip out of the corners of my eyes.My hands were too cold to even wipe my face.
Out of nowhere, an old man walked up to me.He had black mustache and his eyes were surprisingly blue.
“Hello,young man,”he said to me,“lift your spirits up.”
“I can't.I just can't.I was just fired from my favorite job.”
“I know.I know,” he said, interrupting me,“I want you to always remember that it is always the darkest before dawn.You will get another job.Don't worry.”
I didn't know what to do.I looked down at my shoes to think about the situation.Maybe this man was right.Maybe dawn was not so far away.
I decided to thank the man for supporting me, but when I looked up, he was gone.
A week later I got a well?paid job as the executive chef for a five?star restaurant.The man was right.

ABC News anchor (节目主持人) Peter Jennings died on Aug.7, 2005 at home in New York after a brief battle with lung cancer.ABC News anchors said if anything good could be taken from Jennings' death, it was a great awareness of the dangers of smoking.
“I want to give a message,” Barbara Walters said.“If you have kids who are smoking, tell them that we lost Peter.”
Lung cancer is the worst killer in America, killing more people each year than any other cancers, according to the American Cancer Society.About 160,440 Americans die each year of cancer, making up 28 percent of all the cancer deaths.More than 87 percent of lung cancers (肺癌)are smoking related (有联系的).
Dr.Derek Raghavan, director of the Cleveland Clinic's Taussig Cancer Center, said that once a person stops smoking, he starts getting better.Three to five years after quitting, the possibility of suffering from lung cancer is reduced by half.
Warning signs of lung cancer can also be mixed with symptoms caused by long?term smoking.The three main warning signs are an increase in coughing that doesn't clear up, coughing up blood and sharp chest pains (疼痛).
People with those symptoms (症状) should see a doctor.Raghavan said there had been promising developments in the treatment of lung cancer, including the use of radiation, surgery and drugs.“But the fact is that stopping smoking is the most important thing we can do,”Raghavan said.“There is even no treatment that comes close.”
【语篇解读】 文章通过纽约一名主持人死于肺癌的例子告诉人们戒烟是减少肺癌的关键。

Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area.Not all historical buildings are attractive.However, there may be other reasons—for example, economic (经济的) reasons—why they should be preserved.So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people.What should we do then if a new building is needed?
In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style.Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings.As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影响)its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破坏) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too.Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas.I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative (保守的) and do not like change.
Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward.If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves.Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.
【语篇解读】 历史遗址是一个地方的文化瑰宝,在它的旁边是否可以修建现代化的建筑呢?本文作者给出了自己的观点。
28.What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?
A.Some of them are not attractive.
B.Most of them are too expensive to preserve.
C.They are more pleasing than modern buildings.
D.They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第一段的第三句“Not all historical buildings are attractive.”可知,有些历史建筑不具有吸引力,故选项A正确。
29.Which of the following is TRUE according to the author?
A.We should reproduce the same old buildings.
B.Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.
C.Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.
D.No one understands why people speak against new buildings.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第三段的第一句“It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破坏) the area they are in,but the same can be said of some old buildings too.”可知,一些新的建筑和旧的建筑都有可能破坏它们所在的地区。
30.By the words “move things forward” in the last paragraph, the author probably means “________”.
A.destroy old buildings
B.put things in a different place
C.choose new architectural styles
D.respect people's feelings for historical buildings
解析:选C 推理判断题。文章最后一段重点说明建筑风格问题。作者认为建筑师及设计者的职责是去选择新的建筑风格,故C选项正确。
31.What is the main purpose of the passage?
A.To explain why people dislike change.
B.To warn that we could end up living in caves.
C.To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.
D.To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.
解析:选D 主旨大意题。文章首段给出了该文的论点:我们是否应该允许在一个城市历史区域的古建筑旁建现代化的建筑。作者对此进行了论述,由此可知D选项正确。
D
Is your school good for the environment?
Being green isn't easy for Kermit the Frog (a famous cartoon character), but it is easy for a growing number of schools around the country.A “green”school is an environmentally friendly building that uses less energy by depending on the Earth's natural resources for heat, light, and power.Green schools have clean air, a lot of natural light, and renewable power sources.
New studies show that green schools are not only good for the environment, but good for you too! Kids in classrooms with a lot of daylight scored 25 percent higher on reading and math tests than students who studied in rooms with less natural light.Students in schools with more natural light took three to four fewer sick days than students exposed (暴露) to artificial (人造的) classroom lighting.The study further found that those students had less caries (龋齿) because they were exposed to more of the vitamin D produced by the sun.
The Willow School in New Jersey is a school that was built as a green building in 2002.Parts of the building are made totally from recycled materials.To help trap heat, for example, building workers filled the walls with materials from old blue jeans instead of the traditional insulation (隔热材料) made of chemicals.Every classroom has skylights to allow most sunlight, and solar panels line the south end of the building.It uses about 70 percent less energy than a non?green school.This helps the school cut down on high energy costs.
Kate Burke Walsh, head of The Willow School, says, “Sunlight has an impact—you're happier.The clean, natural surroundings help both students and teachers deal with stress and stay relaxed and focused... it's a very calming atmosphere.”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。绿色学校是指一种环保型的学校,学校的建筑等各种设施充分利用自然资源来获取热和光等,而且在这种学校学习的学生成绩较好,患龋齿的也很少。另外,利用可再生资源还减少了学校的开支。
32.What's the purpose of the question in the first paragraph?
A.To express the writer's care about environmental protection.
B.To show the writer's interest in school life.
C.To expect readers to give a clear answer.
D.To introduce the main topic of the passage.
解析:选D 推理判断题。作者在第一段中提出了一个问题“Is your school good for the environment?”,目的是引出后面即将讨论的green school这个话题,所以选D。
33.According to the passage, a green school is a place ________.
A.where natural resources are made full use of
B.where more trees are planted in the schoolyard
C.where students are healthy and care about the environment
D.where the walls of buildings are specially made to reflect light
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“A‘green' school is an environmentally friendly building that uses less energy by depending on the Earth's natural resources for heat,light,and power.”可知,绿色学校是指利用自然资源来获取热量、光和电力的学校,所以选A。
34.How can students benefit from green schools?
A.They won't fall ill during the term.
B.They can get good marks in exams.
C.They will have white and beautiful teeth.
D.They'll pay less than students in other schools.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Kids in classrooms with a lot of daylight scored 25 percent higher on reading and math tests”可知选B。
35.What's the purpose of the author writing the passage?
A.To explain why green schools are popular.
B.To encourage parents to choose green schools.
C.To introduce the advantages of green schools.
D.To expect students to learn about green schools.
解析:选C 写作意图题。本文主要介绍了什么是绿色学校以及绿色学校的各种优点,如:绿色学校可以使得学生变得更加健康、快乐并提高他们的学习成绩等,故选C项。

A
What does it take to be a good neighbor? Over the years I have had all kinds of neighbors, ones that were enjoyable and others that were to be avoided at all costs.
One of the most important things in being a good neighbor is to respect a person's privacy (隐私).When someone new moves into the neighborhood it is a good idea to watch them to see how friendly you should be.If you go rushing over as soon as they move in, they may think you are going to be one of those neighbors that come over at all times of the day, not respecting their privacy.
It is a good idea always to be friendly to everyone in the neighborhood.This can not only put you on good terms with them, but will also be a form of protection for your family and home.If you wave as they drive by or offer a friendly hello while they are out in their yard, this shows that you respect them. If you are friendly to them, they are much more likely to watch out for any wrong doings going on around your home while you are out and let you know if anything happens.
Another way of being a good neighbor is to be helpful in times of need.If you see that they are in need of a helping hand doing something or in times of a disaster (灾难),it is good to offer your help.Even though you have never really talked to the people down the street, they are willing to take the time to help out a neighbor in need.
In conclusion, if you respect people's privacy, treat them kindly and be helpful when you see they are in need,you will be a great neighbor and anyone would be happy to have you next door!
【语篇解读】 处理好邻里关系对我们来说很重要,那么到底如何能够做到这一点呢?首先要尊重他人的隐私,其次是友好待人,再次是要乐于助人。
1.If you are getting along well with your neighbors you can ______.
A.have your own privacy
B.often visit their yard
C.make close friends with them
D.keep your family members safe
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This can not only put you on good terms with them,but will also be a form of protection for your family and home.”可知,邻里关系融洽可以保护你的家和家人的安全。
2.What's the main idea of the fourth paragraph?
A.Neighbors should help each other.
B.Everybody probably gets into trouble.
C.Neighbors should respect each other.
D.A friend in need is a friend indeed.
解析:选A 段落大意题。第四段的前一部分讲到你要乐于帮助邻居,后一部分讲到邻居也会乐于帮助你,由此可知本段的大意是:邻里之间应该互相帮助。
3.In the opinion of the author, neighbors should always be ________.
A.helpful, strong and kind
B.honest, active and friendly
C.respectful, friendly and helpful
D.polite,honest and kind
解析:选C 细节理解题。最后一段第一句是对第二、三和四段的总结和概括,也是作者的中心观点,故选C项。

(2018·江西吉安高一期末)
The morning had been a disaster.My tooth was aching,and I'd been in an argument with a friend.Her words still hurt :“The trouble with you is that you won't put yourself in my place.Can't you see things from my point of view?” I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth.I'd thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable.I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately.Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.
“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said,“the dentist will fit you in.”
I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car.But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist.What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn't he as busy as the others?
In the dentist's office, I sat down and looked around.I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried.The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice?cold one.
When I told her my fears, she laughed and said,“Don't worry.The dentist is very good.”
“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.
“Come on, he is coming.Just lie down and relax.And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.
“The artwork?” I was puzzled.
The chair went back.Suddenly I smiled.There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it:on the ceiling.How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.
What a relief!
【语篇解读】 作者讲述了在一个上午跟朋友争论后因牙疼而去看牙医的故事。告诉我们要学会换位思考,要站在对方的立场考虑问题。

解析:选D 推理判断题。根据第一段中“The morning had been a disaster.My tooth was aching,and I'd been in an argument with a friend.Her words still hurt”可知作者心烦意乱。
5.What made the author begin to doubt about the dentist?
A.The dentist's being as busy as the other dentists.
B.The dentist's agreeing to treat her at very short notice.
C.The surroundings of the dentist's office.
D.The laughing assistant of the dentist.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据“What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice?”可知选B。
6.Why did the author suddenly smile?
A.Because the dentist came at last.
B.Because the chair went back.
C.Because she saw a picture on the ceiling.
D.Because the assistant kept comforting her.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据“The chair went back.Suddenly I smiled.There was a beautiful picture,right where I could enjoy it:on the ceiling.”可知选C。

A
I moved into a new house in July.Since then I have met a few of my neighbours who are very nice people.For Christmas, I thought I would do something nice for each of the neighbours I knew.There were nine neighbours whom I knew by name or spoke with often when I was out in my yard.I knew which houses they lived in.
I decided to add one more to my list.This lady I decided to add lives down the street from me.I meet her every morning walking to work as I drive down the street.She always smiles to me.But I had no idea who she was and which house she lived in.
I planned to make small fruit baskets and leave them on my neighbours' front porches (门廊) on Christmas Eve.I signed the cards:“Happy Holidays from 5104 Northumberland Road.”
I saved the last for the friendly lady.I finally decided on a house where I met her each morning and guessed that it was hers.
My neighbours really appreciated the baskets and would tell me as they saw me in the yard or they would call,and a couple even came by to thank me.
This morning I found a small note in the mailbox.It was addressed simply: Resident,5104 Northumberland Road.
The thank?you card really caught me by surprise.I opened it and read the message.“Thank you for the lovely fruit baskets you left on our porch.It was very thoughtful.Richard Kelly passed away last week.He talked a lot about how nice it was that someone remembered him in his time of illness. He really appreciated it.”
I had no idea who Richard Kelly was and that he had been seriously ill.I had left that nice lady's basket on his porch by mistake.I wanted to say sorry, but that would be wrong.I believe that Mr Kelly was meant to have that basket because he was dying.I hate that nice lady did not get to receive a fruit basket on Christmas, but I believe if she knew what had happened, she would be happy.I feel pleased to have helped Richard Kelly's last days be more cheerful.
【语篇解读】 本文叙述了作者为邻居送果篮的故事,体现了作者“善良、乐善好施”的高尚品质。
1.How many Christmas gifts did the author intend to send?
A.Nine. B.Eight.
C.Ten. D.Eleven.
解析:选C 细节理解题。由第一段的第四句和第二段的第一句可知作者要送10份圣诞礼物。
2.Where did the friendly lady live?
A.She lived at the end of Northumberland Road.
B.Her address was 5104 Northumberland Road.
C.She was thought to share a house with Mr Kelly.
D.The author was not sure about her address at all.
解析:选D 推理判断题。5104 Northumberland Road是作者的地址,故B项错误;作者推测那位女士住在他们通常在早上见面的地方,但是下文说果篮放错了地方,可见她并不在那里住,故A项也错误。由于作者放错果篮,病中的Mr Kelly收到了圣诞节礼物,但是文中没有谈到那位女士和Mr Kelly同住一室,因此C项也错误。通读全文可知作者不知道那位女士究竟住在何处。
3.How did the author's neighbours respond to his gifts?
A.They liked the gifts very much and were thankful.
B.They were thankful that they wanted to be friends.
C.They all made phone calls to say “thank you”.
D.They all visited him by person to show gratitude.
解析:选A 推理判断题。在第五、六段中谈到了作者的邻居们在收到礼物之后的种种反应:有的当面感谢、有的打电话感谢、有的寄来贺卡,那么概括起来就是:邻居们非常喜欢作者的礼物,对作者的举动充满感激。
4.What does the author mean in the last paragraph?
A.He was regretful that the nice lady didn't receive his gift.
B.He was glad to have made Mr Kelly's life more pleasant.
C.He thought Richard Kelly deserved to receive that basket.
D.The nice lady was happy to sacrifice to make Kelly happy.
解析:选B 推理判断题。由最后一段内容可知,B项的陈述与最后一段意思相符。

(2018·宁夏平罗中学期末)
I used to think education was the most important thing in my life.Recently my attitude has begun to change,although I still hold that it is essential for everyone in the world today.As a top junior student in my college, I was asked to make a speech on how to learn English well.Standing in front of the audience and facing so many freshmen,I was trembling.I didn't remember any word that I had prepared.I ran out of the conference room without finishing my speech,leaving everyone puzzled.I cried that night in my room, feeling that I was a loser.Studying takes up so much of my time that I feel unable to really develop myself.I am just storing knowledge, yet I fail to communicate with others.I have received many awards in school, but they don't necessarily reflect anything about me.I don't know how to socialize.When I leave school I fear I will be of no use to society.
I realize that everyone has his own way of living.I want to change my lifestyle.Of course I will keep studying.Yet I plan to look for a part?time job, which might turn out to be a good chance to get to know society.I still believe that working my hardest makes me happy.I will still stay on in college.But I will not allow it to shelter me from the real world.
【语篇解读】 本文讲述了作者在大一新生面前演讲时,由于紧张而忘掉了演讲内容。通过这件事,作者并没有气馁,而是决定加强锻炼,让自己更适应社会。
5.The underlined word “essential” in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”.
A.impossible B.unnecessary
C.important D.useful
解析:选C 词义猜测题。根据文章第一段可推测,虽然作者现在不再认为教育是人生中最重要的事了,但教育仍是人们生活中非常重要的一部分。
6.From the passage we can learn that the author ________.
A.comes to know how important it is to make some money
B.realizes that it is more important to develop oneself than just to learn knowledge
C.does not think education is an important thing in her life any more
D.thinks that communication with others is more important than education
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据文章第二段可知作者计划在继续学习的同时,做一份兼职来进一步提高自己适应社会的能力。
7.The author feels fearful that she will be of no use to society mainly because ________.
A.she is unable to develop herself
B.studying takes too much of her time
C.she does not know how to communicate with others
D.she feels that she is a failure
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第一段可以判断作者之所以害怕将来成为对社会无用之人,主要是因为发现自己不懂得如何与人交流。

1.解析:考查时态。由At that time及often判断应该用一般过去时。
答案:wrote
2.解析:句子的主语为she,与leave为主动关系,因此用现在分词leaving作时间状语。
答案:leaving
3.解析:after为介词,用动名词作介词宾语。
答案:training
4.解析:此处用where引导非限制性定语从句,且在从句中作地点状语。
答案:where
5.解析:考查副词。前面提到她接受培训去当老师,后面说“尽管她热爱教学,但是她在1946年离开了学校”。由此可知前后为转折关系,所以用副词However。
答案:However
6.解析:考查连词。设空处前后为顺承关系,所以用and。
答案:and
7.解析:现在分词短语作定语。
答案:helping
8.解析:根据语境可知应该是“有其他人来帮助她”。
答案:others
9.解析:she与give之间为被动关系,故用被动语态,故此处需用过去分词。
答案:given
10.解析:考查名词。名词love与该空为并列关系,所以该空也应该用名词形式,即service。
答案:service
1.add...to... 把……加到……上
2.sign v.签名;签字
3.by mistake 错误地;错拿某物
4.freshman n.(中学或大学的)一年级学生;新手
5.store v.贮存
He talked a lot about how nice it was that someone remembered him in his time of illness.
[分析] how引导宾语从句,it是形式主语,that引导真正的主句。
[翻译] 关于有人在他生病的时候还记得他是多么的好,他谈论了很多。
