The man had died when the rescuers found her after the terrible earthquake.She was covered by a destroyed house.Through gaps (缝隙) of those ruins,the rescuers could see her last posture (姿势).It was something like an ancient person who was kowtowing (叩头),but it just looked strange because she was out of shape by pressure.
The rescuers confirmed her death by touching her through the gaps of the ruins.They shouted at the ruins again and again,knocked the bricks using various tools,but no reply inside.
Then the rescuing team went to the next building.Suddenly the leader ran back,calling“Come here.”He came to the body,put his hands under the woman,feeling and touching,then shouted loudly and gladly,“There is someone,a baby,still living.”
Through some efforts,rescuers cleaned up the ruins which blocked her.Under her body lay her baby,who was covered by a small red quilt(棉被).He was about 3 or 4 months’ old.Since well protected by his mother’s body,he was safe.He was in a deep sleep when the rescuer carried him out,and his lovely and peaceful face warmed everyone around him.The doctor,along with the rescuing team,took the baby out of the quilt to check if the baby was all right,and he found there was a mobile phone in the quilt.The doctor looked at the screen;a written message was already there:“My dear baby,if you could live,don’t forget how much I love you.”As a doctor,he experienced much of this type of separation;but at this moment,he cried.The mobile phone was passed,and every person who saw this message shed (流出)tears.

Ⅳ.阅读理解
After an earthquake most survivors can be expected to recover over time,particularly with the support of family and friends.Some families will be able to return to their normal life quickly,while others will have to contend_with the destruction of their homes,medical problems,and injury to family members.Children especially will need time to recover from the loss of a loved one or a pet or from the closing down of their school.
Children often turn to adults for information,comfort and help.Parents should try to remain calm,answer children’s questions honestly and remain understanding when they see changes in their children’s behavior.
Children react differently to an earthquake depending on their ages,developmental levels and former experiences.Some will respond by withdrawing(不与人交往),while others will have angry outbursts(爆发).Parents should remain sensitive to each child’s reactions.Parents should spend time talking to their children,letting them know that it’s OK to ask questions and to share their worries.Although it may be hard to find time to have these talks,parents can use regular family mealtimes or bedtimes for them.They should answer questions briefly and honestly and be sure to ask their children for their opinions and ideas.Issues may come up more than once and parents should remain patient when you answer the questions again.For young children,parents,after talking about the earthquake,might read a favorite story or have a relaxing family activity to help them calm down.Parents should also tell children they are safe and spend extra time with them.They could play games outside or read together indoors.Most importantly,be sure to tell them you love them.

— .It couldn’t be better.
A.I’m sorry B.Thank you
C.That’s right D.Don’t mention it
解析:选B。从答语的后半部分It couldn’t be better(那再好不过了)可知,答话人希望被邀请去看电影,所以要表示感谢。故答案选B项。
22.Soon after the quakes,one thousand soldiers were sent out to the miners from the local coal mine.
A.shelter B.rescue
C.bury D.injure
解析:选B。句意:地震后不久,一千名士兵被派去营救(rescue)当地煤矿里的矿工们。shelter掩蔽;bury埋葬,隐藏;injure损害,伤害。
23.Two days later,the fighting between the two countries left the area .
A.in fear B.in silence
C.in ruins D.in peace
解析:选C。句意:经过这两个国家两天的战争,这个地区变成了废墟。in ruins严重受损,破败不堪,符合语境。in fear 害怕地;in silence沉默地;in peace和平地。
24.Don’t leave Tom alone-he is in such a large house.
A.frightening B.to frighten
C.frightened D.frighten

A.at B.on
C.from D.in
解析:选B。congratulations on sth.因某事而祝贺。
26.The mother’s actions her love more than any words could do.

27.The Sound of Music is the first English film I have ever seen.
A.which B.that
C.when D.what
解析:选B。从句中缺少宾语,when不可以做宾语,排除C项;what不可引导定语从句,排除D项。又因先行词被序数词修饰时,通常用that而不用which。故答案选B项。
28.There are more girls than boys in that school,with of the students being girls.
A.three fifth B.three fifths
C.third five D.thirds five
解析:选B。表达分数时,分子用基数,分母用序数,当分子超过1时,分母的字尾需加s。故答案选B项。
29.They talked about their classmates and things they still remembered in middle school.
A.who B.whom
C.that D.which
解析:选C。定语从句的先行词为their classmates and things,既指人又指物,故关系代词只能用that。
30.The Chinese are the 29th Olympic Games held in Beijing in 2008.
A.proud of B.proud in
C.pride in D.pride of
解析:选A。be proud of和take pride in均为固定短语,意思是“为……感到骄傲”。
31.His film is sure to win the award because it by most people.

32. the teachers who made a visit to our school this year was less than that of last year.
A.The number of B.A number of

33.—What’s the matter
—My leg when I try to move it.
A.damages B.destroys
C.hurts D.injuries
解析:选C。考查动词辨析。hurt在本句中意为“疼,痛”。damage损害;destroy破坏;injure伤害(常指意外事故中受伤),为及物动词。
34.I have to tell myself to think of ways to solve the problem instead of worrying.It is .
A.useless B.extreme
C.boring D.frightening

35.He remembers everything of his childhood as if it just now.
A.was happening B.happens
C.happened D.has happened
解析:选C。句意:他记得童年的每一件事,仿佛刚刚发生一样。happen无进行时态,排除A项。as if“仿佛,好像”,其后的从句可用虚拟语气,句中的remember为一般现在时,可判断是对现在的虚拟,故as if从句中用一般过去时表示虚拟语气。
第二节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
I was walking down the road one day when my cell phone rang.I heard a little girl on the other end 36 ,“Dad,please come back soon.I miss you so much!”Because I just have a little 37 ,I knew it was a wrong number,so I rudely 38 ,“You’ve dialed the wrong number!”and then 39 .
During the following days,I got the same call 40 .But I didn’t care much about it.
Then one day she continually called me, 41 I didn’t answer.In the end,I answered the phone and heard a torpid(有气无力的)voice,“Dad,please come back.I miss you so much!Dad,I’m 42 so much pain!Mom said you were too busy to take 43 of me.But,Dad,please 44 me again,OK?” The kind of 45 was difficult to reject(拒绝).I made a loud kiss on the phone and heard the 46 voice say,“Thank you...Dad,I am so...happy...”
Shortly after this,I became 47 about who had been on the other end of my phone.So I called back,and a woman answered,“Sorry,sir.I am really sorry to have 48 you.My daughter has suffered from bone cancer 49 she was born.And her father...died in a(n) 50 last week.I 51 not tell her the news.Poor baby. 52 she couldn’t stand the painful chemotherapy(化疗),she would cry for her dad,who had always 53 her.I really couldn’t bear it,so I gave her a random phone number.”
“How is your daughter now?”I couldn’t 54 to ask.
“She has 55 .You must have kissed her on the phone,because she went with a smile,”she said,“and I’m glad that she gets rid of the pain and stays with her father forever.”
I couldn’t keep my tears back.
36.A.shout B.cry
C.scream D.call
解析:选B。根据第四段中的she would cry for her dad可知,当小女孩忍受不了化疗的痛苦时便会哭喊着找爸爸,所以此处小女孩在电话的另一端应是cry。
37.A.money B.time
C.son D.daughter
解析:选C。作者一听是一个小女孩在电话里叫他爸爸,便肯定对方是拨错号码了,由此可推断出作者有一个儿子。
38.A.replied B.returned
C.announced D.questioned
解析:选A。因为知道是拨错的电话,所以作者粗暴地回答(reply)。return“返回,归还”;announce“宣布”;question“质问,怀疑”。
39.A.hung on B.held on
C.held up D.hung up
解析:选D。因为是别人打错了电话,所以作者说完就挂掉电话(hang up)。hang on“继续等待”;hold on“(打电话时)等着,别挂断”;hold up“推迟,耽搁”。
40.A.from then on B.now and then
C.more or less D.for the moment
解析:选B。接下来的几天,“我”不时地(now and then)接到这个相同的电话。from then on“从那时起”;more or less“或多或少”;for the moment“暂时;目前”。
41.A.even if B.as if
C.in case D.now that
解析:选A。即使作者不接电话,小女孩还是一直打。even if“即使”,符合句子逻辑关系。as if“似乎,好像”;in case“万一”;now that“既然”。
42.A.of B.on
C.in D.at
解析:选C。in pain“疼痛;痛苦”,固定搭配。
43.A.charge B.control
C.notice D.care
解析:选D。take care of“照顾”,符合语境。take charge of“负责”;take control of“控制住”;take notice of“注意”。
44.A.hug B.kiss
C.love D.see
解析:选B。由下文I made a loud kiss可知小女孩请求她的“爸爸”再吻她一次。
45.A.demand B.command
C.request D.act
解析:选C。request“请求”,指小女孩的这个请求很难拒绝。demand“要求”;command“命令”;act“行动”。
46.A.sweet B.deep
C.loud D.weak
解析:选D。由上文a torpid voice可知此处仍然是微弱的(weak)声音,其余三项不符合题意。
47.A.curious B.interested
C.content D.amazed
解析:选A。be curious about“好奇”,作者对电话那头的人感到好奇。be interested in“感兴趣”;be content about“满意于”;be amazed at/by“对……感到吃惊”。
48.A.confused B.bothered
C.displeased D.sought
解析:选B。此处是小女孩的妈妈因孩子打扰(bother)了作者而道歉。
49.A.until B.when
C.while D.since
解析:选D。since从句用一般过去时态,主句是现在完成时态,表示从过去某个时间开始到现在的动作或状态。
50.A.matter B.event
C.accident D.affair
解析:选C。accident指偶然发生的意外事故,多指不幸事件,符合题意。matter指事情,问题;event主要指重要事情,大事;affair常用作复数,指公共事务和政治事务。
51.A.must B.dare
C.need D.should
解析:选B。母亲不敢(dare not)告诉她这个消息(指她父亲去世)。dare用作情态动词,后跟动词原形。
52.A.When B.Where
C.Who D.Whether
解析:选A。当她不能忍受化疗痛苦的时候,此处指时间,根据句意选A。
53.A.encouraged B.persuaded
C.excited D.delighted
解析:选A。她爸爸总会鼓励(encourage)她。persuade“说服”;excite“使兴奋,使激动”;delight“使高兴”。
54.A.stop B.help
C.wait D.keep
解析:选C。此处是作者迫不及待地问小女孩现在怎么样了。couldn’t wait to do sth.“等不及做某事”。
55.A.recovered B.missed
C.lost D.gone
解析:选D。根据she went with a smile及stays with her father forever可知女孩刚刚“去世(has gone)”。miss“错过”;lose“输掉”,recover“恢复”。
第三部分 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Wong Fuk?wing,a Hong Kong volunteer(志愿者)at an orphanage(孤儿院)in Yushu,was killed in the earthquake when he was trying to save others on April 14,2010.
Wong managed to run safely out of the building with some children when the first quake happened at 7∶50 a.m. on April 14,but he went back inside to rescue three other children and three teachers inside,although he knew the danger of aftershocks(余震).
At 10 a.m.,all the children and one of the teachers were saved.However,Wong was buried under the fallen building and died.The other two teachers were still waiting to be rescued.
46?year?old Wong was a truck driver,who often said he could only give his efforts to charity(慈善)instead of money,as he did not earn a lot.His tragic(悲剧的)end touched the hearts of many people both in Hong Kong and on the mainland.
Wong began volunteering in 2002.In 2003,Wong was told by the doctor he got serious illness,which gave him a great blow.However,the illness did not deter the warm?hearted man.When the earthquake struck Wenchuan in Sichuan Province in 2008,Wong rushed to the disaster area of Shifang to offer his help though his family did not want him to go.
In fact,Qinghai is a place Wong had often visited since 2006.As a volunteer,he gave out medicine and clothing to the orphanage there.No one could expect that Wong would die helping others.
Hong Kong Chief Secretary Henry Tang Ying?yen said he had “the highest respect” for the hero who gave his life for others.“What he did has shown the Hong Kong spirit.”The citizens of Hong Kong called him “the pride of Hong Kong’s people”and people on the mainland have also praised him as “a true hero”.

B
I was sleeping in my room when my bed started shaking and a loud noise was heard.I woke up and my mom was screaming my name.Next moment I was running along with my younger sister,mom and dad.Before I ran out of the door,I realized my elder sister hadn’t come out yet.So I screamed her name at the top of my voice.My mom said she had gone to her class.Then the four of us,along with many others,were running on the staircase.We lived on the seventh floor,so I thought we would not be able to make it and the building would fall before we managed to reach even the fourth floor.My dad’s head was injured by something falling down.I did try to put my hand over his head.When we reached the sixth floor,the building split into two.We had no way to get down.
The next thing I remember is silence.There were around 30 people on the staircase and none could react.Five minutes later,someone opened the door of the sixth?floor flat.We all went in.We were wondering how we would get down.From the balcony of the sixth?floor flat,I saw people standing on the ground floor.All eyes were stuck on us.I could see my elder sister crying.
Our first hope of surviving came when a worker climbed a rope to where we were.That was,the first time we thought maybe we could get down.Half an hour passed and we were still trapped.Finally RSS people arrived with ropes.They got people down one by one.My biggest worry was how my dad would get down.Finally after two and a half hours,we all got down.
That day we saw the power of nature.It has taken more than two years to build the flats and it took just one and a half minutes to destroy the structure.

If the crust(外壳)of the earth were not pretty solid(坚固的),it would be shaking about and moving up and down frequently.However,there are places in the rocks of the earth’s crust where it isn’t strongly held together-where faults exist.Along the faults,one rock might push against another with great force.The energy is changed to vibration in the rocks,so they begin to shake and we have an earthquake!
The most famous one in North America was the San Francisco earthquake of 1906.Seven hundred people died and property(财产)damage amounted to about $425,000,000.The greatest destruction came from the fires that followed the quake.
One of the most famous earthquakes in Europe took place in Lisbon,Portugal,in 1755.The city was destroyed and at least thirty thousand people were killed.In 1908,in Calabria and Sicily,a quake killed about seventy?five thousand people.In 1915,in central Italy,hundreds of towns and villages were damaged and thirty thousand people were killed.
Two great earthquakes that caused great damage in Asia took place in Tokyo,Japan,and in Gansu Province in China.The Tokyo quake of 1923 killed more than one hundred thousand people and destroyed the city and the city of Yokohama,too.The Chinese quake in 1920 covered more than three hundred square miles and killed about two hundred thousand people.
64.The first paragraph mainly tells us .
A.where earthquakes happen
B.how earthquakes happen
C.the damage caused by earthquakes
D.famous earthquakes in the world
解析:选B。通读第一段可知,本段介绍了地震的起因。
65.The underlined word“vibration” in the first paragraph probably means“ ”.
A.shaking B.force
C.energy D.losing
解析:选A。一块岩石有可能用力挤压另一块岩石,地壳的能量发生了改变导致岩石晃动,于是地震发生了。vibration意为“晃动”,故A项正确。
66.According to the passage,the earthquake that killed the most people happened in .
A.Portugal B.Italy
C.Japan D.China

C.there were 75,000 people killed in the San Francisco earthquake

解析:选B。细节理解题。由第二段“The greatest destruction came from the fires that followed the quake”可知B项正确。

Having lived in California until 1970,my family has felt a number of earthquakes.We have been fortunate,however,to have suffered no bodily harm or property damage.
There is a website that lists all California earthquakes recorded from 1769 to the present.The site lists the dates and times as well as the magnitude(震级) and the exact location of any quake that measured more than 6.0.There are only a few quakes that stand out in my memory and,luckily,none is shown in the website.So,my personal experience with earthquakes might be considered insignificant.
There are three earthquakes that are difficult to forget.The first one was in 1955 and our oldest daughter was walking with me in our backyard in Redwood City in California.As the shaking became stronger I held her to me with one arm as I held on to one of our fruit trees with the other.All three of us (my daughter,I and the tree)shook for two or three minutes that to us felt like hours.
The second one was in 1963.Our entire family was visiting Disneyland in Southern California.The earth started to shake just as we were beginning to walk from our hotel toward the_famous_landmark.
My third experience with an earthquake was a lonely one in California.It was in my sixties and I was alone in an old church.As the building started to shake,I quickly headed for the door to go outside.I remember I said a little prayer-something like,“Help me get out of here in time,Dear Heavenly Father”.Minutes later,I was safe outside.
