Ⅳ．阅读理解
Christmastime
in
the
city
brings
forests
of
trees
already
cut
and
waiting
to
be
sold．
But
some
people
like
to
drive
to
tree
farms．
Others
wait
for
their
trees
to
come
to
them．
They
order
one
from
the
pages
of
a
catalog
or
on
the
Internet．
Some
say
the
easiest
thing
of
all
is
to
buy
a
man?made
tree
with
Christmas
lights
already
on
it．
No
falling
needles
to
have
to
clean
up．
The
National
Christmas
Tree
Association
says
33,000,000
real
trees
were
sold
last
year，
compared
to
9,000,000
man?made
ones．
Man?made
trees
generally
cost
more，
but
they
can
be
reused．
Most
natural
trees
are
cut
up
and
recycled，
but
some
people
buy
trees
that
can
be
planted．
Most
Christmas
trees
are
now
grown
on
farms
instead
of
in
forests．
Twenty?one
thousand
tree
farmers
in
the
United
States
grow
Christmas
trees
on
more
than
180,000
hectares．
Oregon
was
the
leading
producer
last
year．
Twenty?two
percent
of
people
who
bought
real
trees
last
year
chose
them
at
a
farm．
Two
percent
of
those
people
cut
the
trees
themselves．
The
next
most
popular
places
were
big
stores
like
Walmart
and
Home
Depot．Groups
like
the
Boy
Scouts
also
sell
Christmas
trees．
But
some
people
pay
nothing
for
theirs．
They
steal
it．
Cornell
University
in
Ithaca，
New
York，
has
many
pretty
evergreens．
Some
years
ago，
a
university
worker
found
a
way
to
keep
them
there．
A
month
before
Christmas，
workers
treated
them
with
“pink
ugly
mix”．
It
contains
water
and
red
food
colour．
The
bright
colour
starts
to
disappear
after
about
a
month．
It
can
take
longer，
however．
Cornell
decided
not
to
use
the
mix
this
year，
but
the
idea
has
spread．
1．Man?made
trees
are
chosen
for
Christmas
partly
because________．
A．they
cost
less
than
real
ones
B．they
are
usually
sold
with
gifts
C．they
look
prettier
than
real
ones
D．they
can
be
used
for
more
than
once
2．What
can
we
learn
from
the
passage？
A．Oregon
produced
the
most
Christmas
trees
last
year．
B．Most
Christmas
trees
come
directly
from
the
forests．
C．All
real
trees
for
Christmas
are
recycled
by
Americans．
D．Man?made
Christmas
trees
are
more
popular
with
Americans．
3．People
can
get
their
Christmas
trees
from
the
following
places
EXCEPT
________．
A．Oregon
B．Home
Depot
C．Boy
Scouts
D．Cornell
University
4．The
passage
is
mainly
about________．
A．the
important
festivals
in
America
B．the
origin
of
Christmas
as
a
holiday
C．the
way
Americans
celebrate
Christmas
D．the

of

in

How
can
parents
express
high
(but
not
too
high)
expectations
of
their
children？
Set
realistic
goals．__1__Be
aware
that
setting
goals
that

too
low
can
be
boring，
while

goals
that
are
too
high
can
lead
to
disappointment
and
possible
failure．
Encourage
special
talents．
Don't
expect
your
child
to
become
a
doctor
or
lawyer
just
because
they
are
respected
professions．__2__If
your
child
loves
dance，
voice
your
expectation
that
he
or
she
works
hard
to
become
better
at
what
he
or
she
loves．
If
your
child
loves
science，
voice
your
expectation
that
he
or
she
enters
the
science
fair．
Talk
about
the
future．__3__But
talking
generally

him
or
her
to
attend
college
or
expecting
him
or
her
to
work
toward
a
profession
he

she
loves)
can
help
him
or
her
better
form
his
or
her
own
aspirations
and
dreams．
__4__If
you
are
working
toward
your
own
goals
and
improving
yourself
in
a
way
that
your
child
can
see，
he
or
she
will
learn
not
only
to
achieve
what
is
expected
of
him
or
her
from
others，
but
also
to
expect
himself
or
herself
to
achieve
through
hard
work
and
planning．
Don't
get
too
specific．
While
it
is
healthy
to
expect
your
child
to
achieve
and
make
great
progress
in
school，
it
is
not
healthy
for
either
parent
or
child
to
expect
to
win
a
state
championship．__5__
A．Share
your
expectations
of
yourself．
B．Your
child
may
feel
discouraged
or
depressed．
C．You
should
set
challenging
but
possible
goals
for
your
child．
D．Setting
overly
specific
goals
about
the
future
can
lead
to
disappointment．

your

to
set
goals
for
himself

standards
for
your
child
can
be
very
damaging．
G．Take
your
child's
interests

consideration
when
setting
expectations．

on
the
Internet．
Some
say
the
easiest
thing
of
all
is
to
buy
a
man?made
tree
with
Christmas
lights
already
on
it．
No
falling
needles
to
have
to
clean
up．
The
National
Christmas
Tree
Association
says
33,000,000
real
trees
were
sold
last
year，
compared
to
9,000,000
man?made
ones．
Man?made
trees
generally
cost
more，
but
they
can
be
reused．
Most
natural
trees
are
cut
up
and
recycled，
but
some
people
buy
trees
that
can
be
planted．
Most
Christmas
trees
are
now
grown
on
farms
instead
of
in
forests．
Twenty?one
thousand
tree
farmers
in
the
United
States
grow
Christmas
trees
on
more
than
180,000
hectares．
Oregon
was
the
leading
producer
last
year．
Twenty?two
percent
of
people
who
bought
real
trees
last
year
chose
them
at
a
farm．
Two
percent
of
those
people
cut
the
trees
themselves．
The
next
most
popular
places
were
big
stores
like
Walmart
and
Home
Depot．Groups
like
the
Boy
Scouts
also
sell
Christmas
trees．
But
some
people
pay
nothing
for
theirs．
They
steal
it．
Cornell
University
in
Ithaca，
New
York，
has
many
pretty
evergreens．
Some
years
ago，
a
university
worker
found
a
way
to
keep
them
there．
A
month
before
Christmas，
workers
treated
them
with
“pink
ugly
mix”．
It
contains
water
and
red
food
colour．
The
bright
colour
starts
to
disappear
after
about
a
month．
It
can
take
longer，
however．
Cornell
decided
not
to
use
the
mix
this
year，
but
the
idea
has
spread．
1．Man?made
trees
are
chosen
for
Christmas
partly
because________．
A．they
cost
less
than
real
ones
B．they
are
usually
sold
with
gifts
C．they
look
prettier
than
real
ones
D．they
can
be
used
for
more
than
once
答案：D 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，可重复使用是人造圣诞树的优点之一。
2．What
can
we
learn
from
the
passage？
A．Oregon
produced
the
most
Christmas
trees
last
year．
B．Most
Christmas
trees
come
directly
from
the
forests．
C．All
real
trees
for
Christmas
are
recycled
by
Americans．
D．Man?made
Christmas
trees
are
more
popular
with
Americans．
答案：A 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Oregon
was
the
leading
producer
last
year．”可知，去年Oregon生产的圣诞树最多。
3．People
can
get
their
Christmas
trees
from
the
following
places
EXCEPT
________．
A．Oregon
B．Home
Depot
C．Boy
Scouts
D．Cornell
University
答案：D 细节理解题。根据最后一段可知，康奈尔大学不生产也不销售圣诞树。
4．The

about________．
A．the
important
festivals
in
America
B．the
origin
of
Christmas
as
a

Ⅳ．阅读理解
The
Golden
Gate
Bridge
in
San
Francisco，California
is
one
of
the
world's
most
beautiful
bridges．
It
is
also
one
of
the
most
visited
places
in
the
world．
Vehicles
(车辆)cross
the
bridge
an
average
of
41
million
times
each
year．
More
than
1,800
hundred
million
vehicles
have
used
the
bridge
since
it
opened
more
than
70
years
ago．
The
bridge
was
painted“International
Orange”because
that
color
went
well
with
the
natural
surroundings．
The
color
also
is
easier
to
see
in
the
heavy
fog
that
often
covers
the
area．
But
the
Golden
Gate
Bridge
was
not
named
for
its
orange
color．
It
was
named
for
the
body
of
water
that
it
crosses，the
Golden
Gate
Strait．
The
Golden
Gate
Strait
is
the
entrance
to
the
San
Francisco
Bay
from
the
Pacific
Ocean．
The
Golden
Gate
Bridge
links
the
city
of
San
Francisco
with
Marin
County，California．
Planning
for
the
bridge
began
in
the
1920s
when
the
area
around
San
Francisco
was
growing．
People
living
in
the
area
needed
another
way
to
get
to
the
city
besides
small
ferries(渡船)．
Joseph
Strauss
was
the
chief
engineer
for
the
project．Work
began
in
1934．
Mr．
Strauss
demanded
the
strongest
safety
protections
in
the
history
of
bridge
building．
These
included
the
first
use
of“hard
hats”to
protect
the
workers'
heads
and
special
glasses
to
protect
their
eyes．
A
special
safety
net
was
suspended
(挂)under
the
bridge．
This
net
saved
the
lives
of
19
men
during
the
construction．
However，11
other
workers
were
killed
when
they
fell
from
the
bridge
through
the
net．
Still，this
was
a
new
safety
record
for
the
time．
The
Golden
Gate
Bridge
opened
in
1937．
It
extends
1,280
meters
across
the
water．
The
total
length
is
2,737
meters．
It
was
the
largest
suspension
bridge
(吊桥)in
the
world
until
1964．
That
is
when
the
Verrazano
Narrows
Bridge
opened
in
New
York
City．
Today，the
Golden
Gate
Bridge
is
the
ninth
longest
suspension
bridge
in
the
world．
1．The
Golden
Gate
Bridge
was
named
after________．
A．the
local
climate
B．the
color
of
a
paint
C．the
strait
it
crosses
D．its
natural
surroundings
2．How
did
people
cross
the
Golden
Gate
Strait
before
the
bridge
was
built？
A．By
plane．
B．By
boat．
C．By
road．
D．By
train．
3．What
do
we
know
about
Joseph
Strauss？
A．He
attached
importance
to
the
workers'
safety．
B．His
safety
measures
were
not
of
practical
value．
C．He
built
the
first
suspension
bridge
in
the
world．
D．He
demanded
strong
measures
to
ensure
the
safety
of
the
bridge．

The
First
Americans
There
was
a
time
long
ago
when
a
land
bridge
connected
Asia
and
North
America．The
first
settlers
in
North
America
crossed
this
land
bridge
from
what
is
now
Siberia
to
Alaska．The
people
who
made
this
initial
crossing
were
probably
following
the
animals
they
used
for
food．
Finally，the
oceans
rose
and
the
land
bridge
between
the
continents
disappeared．The
settlers，who
I
shall
call
the
“First
Americans”，could
not
return
to
their
homeland．
__1__
For
the
next
few
thousand
years，the
First
Americans
moved
south
and
east
throughout
North
and
South
America．They
made
the
journey
all
the
way
from
Alaska
to
the
southern
tip
of
South
America，a
distance
of
more
than
10,000
miles．
__2__
In
the
far
north，above
the
Arctic
Circle，the
First
Americans
became
hunters
of
the
ocean．
__3__
In
the
summer，they
gathered
berries
and
other
plants．In
the
winter，they
stayed
in
lodges
much
of
the
time
preparing
for
the
next
summer．It
was
a
hard
life，but
they
learned
to
survive
in
these
terrible
conditions．
Farther
south，in
what
is
now
Arizona，Utah，Colorado，and
New
Mexico，the
First
Americans
became
cliff
dwellers．They
began
by
living
in
caves
that
already
existed
in
the
cliffs．
__4__
The
dwellings
they
built
in
many
ways
resembled
today's
apartment
buildings．
__5__
They
built
a
system
of
dams
and
canals
so
they
could
store
and
use
water
almost
any
time
of
the
year．They
were
so
successful
that
they
could
raise
fruits
and
vegetables
that
were
not
found
naturally
in
the
desert．
A．They
also
discovered
foods
like
corn
and
potatoes．
B．Along
the
way，they
established
many
different
civilizations．
C．They
discovered
how
to
add
to
the
caves
by
building
structures
of
wood
and
stone．
D．People
living
near
each
other
tended
to
share
similar
environments
and
customs．
E．They
built
boats
of
animal
skins
and
hunted
or
fished
for
their
food．
F．They
would
have
to
survive
in
the
New
World
they
had
discovered．
G．The
First
Americans
of
the
Southwest
learned
to
water
the
desert．

When
I
was
a
child，I
spent
more
than
ten
years
learn
the
violin．
Therefore，I
couldn't
understand
“real
music”．
After
I
graduated
at
high
school，a
friend
of
mine
suggested
that
we
started
to
learn
the
guitar
because
we
both
thought
it
was
cool．
I
will
never
forget
the
day
on
that
we
went
to
buy
guitars
in
the
guitar
store．
There
I
see
a
guitar
player
playing
the
guitar，which
I
really
enjoyed．
He
became
my
the
first
guitar
teacher．
It
took
me
such
a
long
time
choose
a
guitar
among
several
wonderful

Now
the
guitar
is
the
most
importantly
part
of
my
life
and
I
practice
it
every
day．

Ⅳ．阅读理解
The
Golden
Gate
Bridge
in
San
Francisco，California
is
one
of
the
world's
most
beautiful
bridges．
It
is
also
one
of
the
most
visited
places
in
the
world．
Vehicles
(车辆)cross
the
bridge
an
average
of
41
million
times
each
year．
More
than
1,800
hundred
million
vehicles
have
used
the
bridge
since
it
opened
more
than
70
years
ago．
The
bridge
was
painted“International
Orange”because
that
color
went
well
with
the
natural
surroundings．
The
color
also
is
easier
to
see
in
the
heavy
fog
that
often
covers
the
area．
But
the
Golden
Gate
Bridge
was
not
named
for
its
orange
color．
It
was
named
for
the
body
of
water
that
it
crosses，the
Golden
Gate
Strait．
The
Golden
Gate
Strait
is
the
entrance
to
the
San
Francisco
Bay
from
the
Pacific
Ocean．
The
Golden
Gate
Bridge
links
the
city
of
San
Francisco
with
Marin
County，California．
Planning
for
the
bridge
began
in
the
1920s
when
the
area
around
San
Francisco
was
growing．
People
living
in
the
area
needed
another
way
to
get
to
the
city
besides
small
ferries(渡船)．
Joseph
Strauss
was
the
chief
engineer
for
the
project．Work
began
in
1934．
Mr．
Strauss
demanded
the
strongest
safety
protections
in
the
history
of
bridge
building．
These
included
the
first
use
of“hard
hats”to
protect
the
workers'
heads
and
special
glasses
to
protect
their
eyes．
A
special
safety
net
was
suspended
(挂)under
the
bridge．
This
net
saved
the
lives
of
19
men
during
the
construction．
However，11
other
workers
were
killed
when
they
fell
from
the
bridge
through
the
net．
Still，this
was
a
new
safety
record
for
the
time．
The
Golden
Gate
Bridge
opened
in
1937．
It
extends
1,280
meters
across
the
water．
The
total
length
is
2,737
meters．
It
was
the
largest
suspension
bridge
(吊桥)in
the
world
until
1964．
That
is
when
the
Verrazano
Narrows
Bridge
opened
in
New
York
City．
Today，the
Golden
Gate
Bridge
is
the
ninth
longest
suspension
bridge
in
the
world．
1．The
Golden
Gate
Bridge
was
named
after________．
A．the
local
climate
B．the
color
of
a
paint
C．the
strait
it
crosses
D．its
natural
surroundings
答案：C 细节理解题。根据第二段的最后一句可知金门桥得名于这座桥跨越的海峡——金门海峡。
2．How
did
people
cross
the
Golden
Gate
Strait
before
the
bridge
was
built？
A．By
plane．
B．By
boat．
C．By
road．
D．By
train．
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第四段的最后一句可知，在金门桥修建之前，人们乘渡船通过金门海峡。
3．What
do
we
know
about
Joseph
Strauss？
A．He
attached
importance
to
the
workers'
safety．
B．His
safety
measures
were
not
of
practical
value．
C．He
built
the
first
suspension
bridge
in
the
world．
D．He
demanded
strong
measures
to
ensure
the
safety
of
the
bridge．
答案：A 推理判断题。根据文章的第五、第六段可知，负责修建金门桥的工程师约瑟夫·施特劳斯非常注重保护建筑工人的安全，他采取了一些有效措施确保工人的安全。
4．The
passage
is
written
to________．
A．invite
readers
to
San
Francisco
B．introduce
the
Golden
Gate
Bridge
C．describe
how
the
Golden
Gate
Bridge
was
built
D．tell
the
story
of
an
engineer
called
Joseph
Strauss
答案：B 推理判断题。本文的写作目的是向读者介绍美国旧金山的金门桥：包括桥上的车流量、名字的由来、修建的原因、修建的过程等内容。

文章大意：本文主要介绍了同辈人之间的压力问题。
答案：
1．harder 根据上下文语境可知，上句中有hard
enough，而本空前有even这个副词，故可推知此处应用比较级，表示“更难”之意。
2．classmates 根据上下文语境可知，文章针对的应该是学生，故此处填classmates。
3．to
do 短语get
sb
to
do
sth意为“让某人做某事”。
4．though/if 句意：同龄人仅仅通过和你在一起就能影响你的生活，即使你没有意识到它。even
though/if意思是“即使”。
5．on 短语have
a
positive
influence
on
sb意思是“对某人有积极的影响”，符合语境。
6．faced 短语be
faced
with意思是“面临”。
7．it 根据上下文语境可知，此处使用it作形式宾语，真正的宾语为to
handle。
8．Talking 根据句子结构可知，此处为动名词短语作主语。
9．much/even 根据后面的better可知，此处需要能修饰比较级的副词。
10．what 句意：同龄人相互施压可以使大家都做正确的事情。及物动词do后面应接宾语，后面的从句缺少主语，故应用what。

The
First
Americans
There
was
a
time
long
ago
when
a
land
bridge
connected
Asia
and
North
America．The
first
settlers
in
North
America
crossed
this
land
bridge
from
what
is
now
Siberia
to
Alaska．The
people
who
made
this
initial
crossing
were
probably
following
the
animals
they
used
for
food．
Finally，the
oceans
rose
and
the
land
bridge
between
the
continents
disappeared．The
settlers，who
I
shall
call
the
“First
Americans”，could
not
return
to
their
homeland．
__1__
For
the
next
few
thousand
years，the
First
Americans
moved
south
and
east
throughout
North
and
South
America．They
made
the
journey
all
the
way
from
Alaska
to
the
southern
tip
of
South
America，a
distance
of
more
than
10,000
miles．
__2__
In
the
far
north，above
the
Arctic
Circle，the
First
Americans
became
hunters
of
the
ocean．
__3__
In
the
summer，they
gathered
berries
and
other
plants．In
the
winter，they
stayed
in
lodges
much
of
the
time
preparing
for
the
next
summer．It
was
a
hard
life，but
they
learned
to
survive
in
these
terrible
conditions．
Farther
south，in
what
is
now
Arizona，Utah，Colorado，and
New
Mexico，the
First
Americans
became
cliff
dwellers．They
began
by
living
in
caves
that
already
existed
in
the
cliffs．
__4__
The
dwellings
they
built
in
many
ways
resembled
today's
apartment
buildings．
__5__
They
built
a
system
of
dams
and
canals
so
they
could
store
and
use
water
almost
any
time
of
the
year．They
were
so
successful
that
they
could
raise
fruits
and
vegetables
that
were
not
found
naturally
in
the
desert．
A．They
also
discovered
foods
like
corn
and
potatoes．
B．Along
the
way，they
established
many
different
civilizations．
C．They
discovered
how
to
add
to
the
caves
by
building
structures
of
wood
and
stone．
D．People
living
near
each
other
tended
to
share
similar
environments
and
customs．
E．They
built
boats
of
animal
skins
and
hunted
or
fished
for
their
food．
F．They
would
have
to
survive
in
the
New
World
they
had
discovered．
G．The
First
Americans
of
the
Southwest
learned
to
water
the
desert．
1．__________ 2．__________ 3．__________
4．__________ 5．__________
答案：
1．F 根据上句The
settlers，who
I
shall
call
the
“First
Americans”，could
not
return
to
their
homeland．说明他们无法回去了，那么不得不在这个新的世界幸存下来，故F项符合上下文。
2．B 根据上句They
made
the
journey
all
the
way
from
Alaska
to
the
southern
tip
of
South
America，a
distance
of
more
than
10,000
miles．说明他们一直在迁移，在迁移的途中，建立了多种文明，故B项符合上下文。
3．E 根据上一句In
the
far
north，above
the
Arctic
Circle，the
First
Americans
became
hunters
of
the
ocean说明他们求生的方法就是捕猎，故E项符合上下文。
4．C 根据上句They
began
by
living
in
caves
that
already
existed
in
the
cliffs．说明是指他们生活的方式也发生了变化，故C项符合上下文。
5．G 根据下一句They
built
a
system
of
dams
and
canals
so
they
could
store
and
use
water
almost
any
time
of
the
year．说明他们学会了如何管理水源，故G项符合上下文。

Today，several
of
the
world's
nearly
7，000
languages
face
a
serious
risk
of
extinction．
“For
example，Ainu，a
language
in
Japan，is
now
seriously
threatened，with
only
10
native
speakers
left，”
said
lead
study
author
Tatsuya
Amano
at
the
University
of
Cambridge
in
England．
The
scientists
found
that
25
percent
of
the
world's
languages
are
threatened．
After
identifying
where
the
endangered
languages
were，they
looked
for
any
environmental，social
or
economic
factors
those
languages
might
have
in
common，such
as
rugged
terrain
or
rapid
population
growth．
“We
found
that
on
a
global
scale，language
speaker
declines
are
strongly
linked
to
economic
growth—that
is，declines
are
particularly
occurring
in
economically
developed
regions，”
Amano
said．
“One
important
implication
of
this
new
study
is
that
languages
in
the
tropics
and
the
Himalayan
region
are
likely
to
be
increasingly
threatened
in
the
near
future，because
these
regions
still
have
many
local
indigenous(土生土长的)
languages
with
a
small
number
of
speakers，and
at
the
same
time
are
experiencing
rapid
economic
growth，”
Amano
said．
Economic
growth
may
endanger
languages
for
a
variety
of
reasons．For
instance，speakers
of
endangered
languages
may
view
another
more
dominant
language
as
offering
economic
opportunities，and
thus
give
up
their
own
languages．There
are
other
important
factors
that
might
endanger
languages，the
researchers
said．For
instance，policies
regarding
how
languages
are
used
and
taught
in
schools
can
be
very
different
among
countries
and
even
within
each
country，and
these
factors
may
explain
more
detailed
patterns
in
language
endangerment．
Amano
suggested
it
could
be
possible
to
forecast
future
threats
to
linguistic
diversity．
“There
exists
detailed
information
about
projected
future
changes
in
the
environment，economies
and
climates，”Amano
said．
“Using
such
information，together
with
the
findings
of
this
study
and
further
analysis，we
would
like
to
understand
what
will
happen
to
the
world's
languages，where
it
will
happen
and
which
languages
will
be
threatened
in
particular．”

up
of

most
according

of
society．
B．The

of
economy．
C．The

of
the
population．

languages
are

some
examples

that________．
A．world's
languages
are
developing
rapidly
B．the
study
is
very
important
to

B
If
you
are
planning
to
study
in
the
United
States，you
need
to
consider
several
factors．First，everyone
has
different
opinions
about
where
is
the
best
place
to
live．
Also，the
best
places
to
live
are
not
always
home
to
the
best
schools．
Finally，many
schools
specialize
in
different
areas
of
study．
The
Massachusetts
Institute
of
Technology
(麻省理工学院)，for
example，is
a
great
school
for
computer
science
and
technology?related
fields
of
study．
However，if
you
want
to
study
oceanography(海洋学)，your
interests
may
be
better
served
by
attending
a
school
that
is
on
a
coastline
or
near
the
ocean．
Now
I
am
sure
that
you
have
known
which
schools
are
considered
the
best
in
the
country．
So
I
will
tell
you
about
which
states
I
believe
are
the
best
to
live
in．
California
is
a
nice
state．
Northern
California
specifically
has
very
good
weather．
Los
Angeles
in
Southern
California
is
another
story
though．
Life
in
Los
Angeles
is
fast，full
of
excitement
and
sometimes
dangerous．
As
for
me，I
enjoy
the
time
I
spent
in
Massachusetts，Virginia
and
Maryland，because
these
states
have
a
lot
of
history
and
culture．
The
weather
is
not
as
perfect
as
Northern
California，but
it
is
still
quite
nice．
My
favorite
area
of
America
is
the
Midwest．
Middle
America，I
think，is
home
to
the
true
American
sense
of
values．
In
addition，there
are
many
good
universities．
Also，you
need
to
think
about
your
likes
and
dislikes
and
then
research
the
various
states．
You
like
sunshine
and
hate
snow？
Then
you
probably
won't
like
the
Midwest
or
even
the
Northeast．
Open
space，nature，peace
and
quiet？
Then
you
probably
should
stay
away
from
America's
large
cities．Are
you
interested
in
government？
Then
Washington
D．C．is
the
only
place
for
you．
Whatever
you
decide，put
some
thought
into
it．
The
place
you
live
in
could
be
the
difference
between
a
great
study?abroad
experience
and
a
state
of
great
suffering
on
earth．
5．From
the
first
paragraph
we
can
conclude
that
in
the
USA________．
A．all
colleges
and
universities
lie
in
big
cities
B．all
colleges
and
universities
lie
in
beautiful
places
C．famous
colleges
and
universities
lie
in
nice
places
D．famous
colleges
and
universities
may
not
lie
in
nice
places
6．What，according
to
the
writer，should
be
considered
first
if
you
want
to
study
in
the
USA？
A．The
climate．
B．The
scenery．
C．The
study
condition．
D．The
living
condition．
7．From
the
third
paragraph
we
can
find
that________．
A．California
is
the
best
place
to
live
in
B．California
is
the
worst
place
to
live
in
C．California
is
a
state
with
different
climates
D．California
is
a
small
state
in
the
USA
8．If
you
study
in
Middle
America，you
can
probably________．
A．find
the
best
universities
B．feel
the
real
character
of
the
nation
C．meet
the
most
famous
professors
there
D．face
more

文章大意：本文为记叙文。作者原本信仰所谓的美国梦，他和其他人一样都追求个人的成就。然而，有一年作者遭遇打击，变得无家可归、一无所有，这时他在乡下找到一个破旧的小屋住下，在那里他感受到邻居们给予他的关怀。从此之后，他对美国梦有了新认识，美国梦不是追求个人的成就，而是追求群体的成功。后来，作者重返城里帮助其他人。
1．A．separately
B．equally
C．violently
D．naturally
答案：A 逻辑推理题。根据下文可知，作者改变了原来认为美国梦就是追求个人的成就的想法，此处句意为：我们所有人都分别追求同样的事情。A项“独立地，分别地”；B项“平等地，同样地”；C项“暴力地”；D项“自然地”。

C．cleared
D．cut
答案：C 逻辑推理题。根据上文“full
of
broken
glass
and
rubbish”可知，作者需要清理房子，clear可以作动词“清理”，因此答案为C项。

20．A．when
B．what
C．whether
D．how
答案：D 逻辑推理题。句意：这不是关于我自己能够得到什么的问题，而是怎样才能使我们所有的人一起生活的问题。从句缺少状语，可排除B、C，结合上下文和句意可知D为最佳选项。

文章大意：文章介绍了世界上许多语言面临灭绝的危险。作者举例说明了造成这种情况的几种因素。
1．Ainu
is
mentioned
in
Paragraph

that________．
A．Japanese

D．it
is
most
likely
to
disappear
in
the
future
答案：D 推理判断题。文章第一段首句提到世界上许多语言面临着灭绝的危险，接着以日本的阿伊努语为例，这说明该语言在未来有可能消失。
2．What
may
endanger
the
languages
most
according
to
Amano？
A．The
diversity
of
society．
B．The
development
of
economy．
C．The
decline
of
the
population．
D．The
improvement
of
the
environment．
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句中的language
speaker
declines
are
strongly
linked
to
economic
growth可知，Amano认为经济的发展有可能引起某种语言的使用人数减少，使得这种语言濒临灭绝。
3．The
writer
shows
us
the
reasons
why
languages
are
endangered
by________．
A．offering
some
examples
B．performing
some
experiments
C．telling
some
interesting
stories
D．making
a
list
of
important
facts
答案：A 细节理解题。作者在第四段举出事例分析语言会濒临灭绝的原因，故A项为正确答案。
4．We
can
learn
from

Finally，many
schools
specialize
in
different
areas
of
study．
The
Massachusetts
Institute
of
Technology
(麻省理工学院)，for
example，is
a
great
school
for
computer
science
and
technology?related
fields
of
study．
However，if
you
want
to
study
oceanography(海洋学)，your
interests
may
be
better
served
by
attending
a
school
that
is
on
a
coastline
or
near
the
ocean．
Now
I
am
sure
that
you
have
known
which
schools
are
considered
the
best
in
the
country．
So
I
will
tell
you
about
which
states
I
believe
are
the
best
to
live
in．
California
is
a
nice
state．
Northern
California
specifically
has
very
good
weather．
Los
Angeles
in
Southern
California
is
another
story
though．
Life
in
Los
Angeles
is
fast，full
of
excitement
and
sometimes
dangerous．
As
for
me，I
enjoy
the
time
I
spent
in
Massachusetts，Virginia
and
Maryland，because
these
states
have
a
lot
of
history
and
culture．
The
weather
is
not
as
perfect
as
Northern
California，but
it
is
still
quite
nice．
My
favorite
area
of
America
is
the
Midwest．
Middle
America，I
think，is
home
to
the
true
American
sense
of
values．
In
addition，there
are
many
good
universities．
Also，you
need
to
think
about
your
likes
and
dislikes
and
then
research
the
various
states．
You
like
sunshine
and
hate
snow？
Then
you
probably
won't
like
the
Midwest
or
even
the
Northeast．
Open
space，nature，peace
and
quiet？
Then
you
probably
should
stay
away
from
America's
large
cities．Are
you
interested
in
government？
Then
Washington
D．C．is
the
only
place
for
you．
Whatever
you
decide，put
some
thought
into
it．
The
place
you
live
in
could
be
the
difference
between
a
great
study?abroad
experience
and
a
state
of
great
suffering
on
earth．
