一阅读理解（共4小题，每题2.5分）
Papa, as a son of a dirt-poor farmer, left school early and went to work in a factory, for education was for the rich then. So, the world became his school. With great interest, he read everything he could lay his hands on, listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his tiny hometown. “There’s so much to learn,” he’d say. “Though we’re born stupid, only the stupid remain that way.” He was determined that none of his children would be denied (拒绝) an education.
Thus, Papa insisted that we learn at least one new thing each day. Though, as children, we thought this was crazy, it would never have occurred to us to deny Papa a request. And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we had learned. We would talk about the news of the day; no matter how insignificant, it was never taken lightly. Papa would listen carefully and was ready with some comment, always to the point.
Then came the moment—the time to share the day’s new learning.
Papa, at the head of the table, would push back his chair and pour a glass of red wine, ready to listen.
“Felice,” he’d say, “tell me what you learned today.”
“I learned that the population of Nepal is...”
Silence.
Papa was thinking about what was said, as if the salvation (拯救) of the world would depend upon it. “The population of Nepal. Hmm. Well...” he’d say. “Get the map; let’s see where Nepal is.” And the whole family went on a search for Nepal.
This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn. Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.
As children, we thought very little about these educational wonders. Our family, however, was growing together, sharing experiences and participating in one another’s education. And by looking at us, listening to us, respecting our input, affirming (肯定) our value, giving us a sense of dignity, Papa was unquestionably our most influential teacher.
Later during my training as a future teacher,I studied with some of the most famous educators. They were imparting (传授) what Papa had known all along—the value of continual learning. His technique has served me well all my life. Not a single day has been wasted, though I can never tell when knowing the population of Nepal might prove useful.

答案
一阅读理解 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者的父亲因为家境贫穷而中途辍学,但是他以自己的方式对子女进行教育,不让他们失去教育的机会,这对作者产生了深远的影响。
　　【答案与解析】
1.D　细节题。根据文章第1段的描述,特别是第1段第1句中的for education was for the rich then可知,当时的穷人上不起学。
2.C　细节题。此处语境为“我们吃饭时会谈论当天的新闻。无论它有多么微不足道,它都不会被等闲视之”。由此可以看出,it指的是新闻。
3.D　推断题。根据倒数第2段的描述可以看出,作者十分欣赏父亲的教育方式。
4.B　推断题。通读全文可知,作者的父亲用自己的教育方式坚持着对子女的教育,B项与此相符。
二完型填空
【语篇解读】本文主要讲述了在1925年美国阿拉斯加的诺姆镇爆发了白喉传染病。由于大雪,诺姆镇与外界隔绝。为了拯救感染病毒的孩子们,诺姆镇政府,通过狗拉雪橇的方式运送药品,最终拯救了孩子们的生命。
　　【答案与解析】
1.A　根据后面的and knew he had diphtheria,a deadly infectious disease可知,Dr Welch对Billy进行了检查。
2.B　根据上下文语境可知,小镇由于大雪与外界隔绝,运送药物困难且出现了致命的传染性疾病,因此,如果孩子们感染白喉,将是无助的。
3.D　根据上下文语境可知,前后两句之间是转折关系。
4.C　根据下文中的it couldn????t come by ship可以推出应该是那个镇的码头已经全结了冰。
5.B　根据第1段最后一句可知,此时路已经被冰雪覆盖,汽车和马无法前进。
6.C　到了1月26日,Billy和其他三个孩子已经死了。“by+时间”表示“到……为止”,且与完成时连用。
7.D　还有二十多个孩子生病了。
8.A　诺姆镇的官员提出了一个(送药的)计划。
9.B　根据下文“The first musher,Shannon,picked up the medicine from the train...”可知,药品应该是先通过火车从Anchorage运送到Nenana的。
10.A　从那里狗拉雪橇的驾驶员——叫作赶狗拉雪橇的人——将用接力的方式把它带到Nome。
11.C　当Shannon把药品递给下一个赶狗拉雪橇的人的时候,他的脸因为极度寒冷已经变青了。
12.D　Seppala(送药时)必须穿过一个叫作Norton Sound的极其寒冷的水域。下文中的“But Seppala made it across.”也是提示。
13.C　根据下文的“Norton Sound was covered with ice,which could sometimes break up without warning.”可知,这是旅途中最危险的部分。
14.D　如果那(冰破裂)发生的话,Seppala可能会掉进下面冰冷的水里。他可能会死,同时,Nome那些生病的孩子也会死。
15.C　在某一地方巨大的雪堆挡住了他的路。block one????s way意为“挡住了某人的路”。
16.A　根据上下文语境可知,为了绕过大雪堆,Kaasen离开了雪橇的痕迹,情况是那么的坏以至于他找不到雪橇的痕迹。
17.B　Balto把它的鼻子放在地上,尽力找其他曾经从雪撬痕迹上经过的狗的味道。try to do sth意为“尽力做某事”。
18.A　根据下文中的“He had found the trail.”可知,Balto找到了雪橇的痕迹,由此可推知它又开始跑了。
19.D　根据下文的“Within minutes,Dr Welch had the medicine.”可知医生拿到了药品。由此可知,Kaasen和他的狗顺利到达了Nome。
20.B　根据上文以及“All of them recovered.”可知,诺姆镇获救了。
三语法填空
【语篇解读】本文讲述了主人公约翰逊先生的生活经历。虽然他意外地失去了以往赖以谋生的奶牛, 却在之后的生活中收获了更多,可谓“塞翁失马,焉知非福”。
【答案与解析】

2.Luckily　本空修饰整个句子, 应用副词。
3.for　exchange...for...意为“用……交换……”。
4.was left　谓语动词和主语之间为被动关系,应用被动语态,又因为动作发生在过去,所以用一般过去时。
5.when　be doing...when...为固定结构,表示“正在做……突然……”。
6.fell　根据语境可知应用一般过去时。
7.without　根据上文可知约翰逊先生失去了他的奶牛,且此空后为the cow,故用介词without。
8.to sell　根据语境可知此处用动词不定式,在句中作目的状语。
9.where　此处用where引导定语从句,修饰先行词the market。
10.him　根据句型It occurred to sb that...“某人突然发现……”及上下文中的人称使用情况可知答案。
