known，”
Glenda,
33,
told

“So
it's

__3__.
But
I

I'm

What

She's

We're

There

But

ones
who

__11__
language
because
they're
dying

girl.
I
don't
have
__12__
for
that.”
Baby
Sam
already
has
friends
all
over
the
neighborhood.
Henry
Marshall,
a
19?year?old
Harvard
freshman,
told
the
Globe
that

Ⅱ.阅读理解
Marian
Bechtel
sits
at
West
Palm
Beach's
Bar
Louie
counter
by
herself，quietly
reading
her
e?book
as
she
waits
for
her
salad.What
is
she
reading？None
of
your
business!
Lunch
is
Bechtel's
“me”time.And
like
more
Americans，she's
not
alone.
A
new
report
found
46
percent
of
meals
are
eaten
alone
in
America.More
than
half
(53
percent)have
breakfast
alone
and
nearly
half
(46
percent)have
lunch
by
themselves.Only
at
dinnertime
are
we
eating
together
anymore,74
percent，according
to
statistics
from
the
report.
“I
prefer
to
go
out
and
be
out.Alone，but
together，you
know？”
Bechtel
said，looking
up
from
her
book.Bechtel，who
works
in
downtown
West
Palm
Beach，has
lunch
with
coworkers
sometimes，but
like
many
of
us，too
often
works
through
lunch
at
her
desk.A
lunchtime
escape
allows
her
to
keep
a
boss
from
tapping
her
on
the
shoulder.She
returns
to
work
feeling
energized.“Today，I
just
want
some
time
to
myself，”she
said.
Just
two
seats
over，Andrew
Mazoleny，a
local
video?grapher，is
finishing
his
lunch
at
the
bar.He
likes
that
he
can
sit
and
check
his
phone
in
peace
or
chat
up
the
barkeeper
with
whom
he's
on
a
first?name
basis
if
he
wants
to
have
a
little
interaction(交流)．“I
reflect
on
how
my
day's
gone
and
think
about
the
rest
of
the
week，”
he
said.“It's
a
chance
for
self?reflection.You
return
to
work
recharged
and
with
a
plan.”
That
freedom
to
choose
is
one
reason
more
people
like
to
eat
alone.There
was
a
time
when
people
may
have
felt
awkward
about
asking
for
a
table
for
one，but
those
days
are
over.Now，we
have
our
smartphones
to
keep
us
company
at
the
table.“It
doesn't
feel
as
alone
as
it
may
have
before
all
the
advances
in
technology，”
said
Laurie
Demeritt，whose
company
provided
the
statistics
for
the
report.
本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了现在多数美国人喜欢独自一人吃饭，他们喜欢这种独处带来的自由。
1．What
are
the
statistics
in
Paragraph
2
about?
A．Food
variety.
B．Eating
habits.
C．Table
manners.
D．Restaurant
service.
答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的大部分人独自吃早饭或午饭，一起吃晚饭的数据可知，这是对美国人的饮食习惯进行了调查，故答案为B。
2．Why
does
Bechtel
prefer
to
go
out
for
lunch?
A．To
meet
with
her
coworkers.
B．To
catch
up
with
her
work.
C．To
have
some
time
on
her
own.
D．To
collect
data
for
her
report.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“I
just
want
some
time
to
myself
(我只是想给自己一点儿时间)”可知，Bechtel更喜欢出去吃午饭的原因是想拥有自己的时间，故答案为C。
3．What
do
we
know
about
Mazoleny?
A．He
makes
videos
for
the
bar.
B．He's
fond
of
the
food
at
the
bar.
C．He
interviews
customers
at
the
bar.
D．He's
familiar
with
the
barkeeper.
答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段“...chat
up
the
barkeeper
with
whom
he's
on
a
first?name
basis
if
he
wants
to
have
a
little
interaction(交流)．”中的be
on
a
first?name
basis的意思是“关系好，可以直呼其名”，由此可知
Mazoleny与酒吧老板很熟，故答案为D。
4．What
is
the
text
mainly
about?
A．The
trend
of
having
meals
alone.
B．The
importance
of
self?reflection.
C．The
stress
from
working
overtime.
D．The
advantage
of
wireless
technology.
答案：A
解析：主旨大意题。根据第一、三、四段的例子、第二段的数据以及最后一段中的第一句“That
freedom
to
choose
is
one
reason
more
people
like
to
eat
alone.”可知，本文主要说了独自用餐已经逐渐成为一种趋势，故答案为A。
Ⅲ.读后续写
On
a
cold
windy
day,
a
poor
boy
tried
to
pay
his
way
through
school
by
selling
goods
door
to
door.Wandering
on
the
street,
he
was
not
a
successful
seller.What's
worse,
he
found
that
he
only
had
one
dime(十分硬币)left.His
empty
stomach
reminded
him
constantly
that
for
days
he
hadn't
eaten
anything.He
had
no
choice
but
to
beg
for
a
meal
at
the
next
house.Hesitantly
he
knocked
at
the
door,
thinking
about
what
to
say
when
it
opened.However,
he
lost
his
nerve
when
a
lovely
young
woman
opened
the
door.“What
can
I
do
for
you？”
asked
the
young
woman.The
boy
paused
for
a
while.“Would
you
please
give
me
some...a
drink
of
water？”
the
boy
dare
not
look
directly
into
her
eyes.
She
looked
at
the
bony
boy
and
thought
he
might
need
something
to
give
himself
energy
so
she
brought
him
a
glass
of
milk.
His
head
rising
and
small
hands
taking
the
cup,
he
drank
it
up
slowly,
and
then
asked,
“How
much
do
I
owe
you？”“You
don't
owe
me
anything，”
she
replied
with
a
warm
smile
on
her
face.“My
mother
has
taught
me
never
to
accept
pay
for
a
kindness.”
Deeply
moved,
he
said
sincerely,
“Then
I
shall
thank
you
from
the
bottom
of
my
heart.”As
Howard
Kelly
left
that
house,
he
felt
stronger
physically.It
also
increased
his
faith
in
God
and
the
whole
human
race.As
a
matter
of
fact,
he
was
about
to
give
up
and
quit
before
that
point.
Years
later
the
young
woman
became
critically
ill.However,
the
local
doctors
were
unable
to
give
her
the
effective
medical
treatment.Finally
they
sent
her
to
a
hospital
in
the
big
city,
where
specialists
can
be
called
in
to
cure
her
rare
disease.Among
those
famous
specialists,
Dr
Howard
Kelly
was
called
in
for
the
consultation.
When
he
heard
the
name
of
the
town
she
came
from,
a
strange
light
filled
his
eyes.Immediately,
he
rose
and
went
down
through
the
hospital
hall
into
her
room.
注意：
1．所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。
答案
Paragraph
1：
Dressed
in
his
doctor's
gown,
he
went
in
to
see
her.
He
saw
her
lying
on
the
bed
and
recognized
her
at
once.Her
lovely
face
looked
pale.He
went
back
to
the
consultation
room
and
determined
to
do
his
best
to
save
her
life.From
that
day
on,
he
gave
special
attention
to
her
case.Luckily,
after
a
long
struggle,
the
battle
was
won.Dr
Kelly
requested
the
business
office
to
pass
the
final
bill
to
him
for
approval.He
looked
at
it
and
then
wrote
something
on
the
side.
Paragraph
2：
The
bill
was
sent
to
her
room.
Hesitantly
she
took
it.She
was
afraid
to
open
it
because
she
was
sure
that
it
would
take
the
rest
of
her
life
to
pay
it
off.Finally
she
opened
it,
on
the
side
of
which
a
note
caught
her
attention.She
read
these
words,
“Paid
in
full
with
a
glass
of
milk.”
signed
by
Dr
Howard
Kelly.Tears
of
joy
flooded
her
eyes
as
she
prayed
silently,
“Thank
you,

On
a
cold
windy
day,
a
poor
boy
tried
to
pay
his
way
through
school
by
selling
goods
door
to
door.Wandering
on
the
street,
he
was
not
a
successful
seller.What's
worse,
he
found
that
he
only
had
one
dime(十分硬币)left.His
empty
stomach
reminded
him
constantly
that
for
days
he
hadn't
eaten
anything.He
had
no
choice
but
to
beg
for
a
meal
at
the
next
house.Hesitantly
he
knocked
at
the
door,
thinking
about
what
to
say
when
it
opened.However,
he
lost
his
nerve
when
a
lovely
young
woman
opened
the
door.“What
can
I
do
for
you？”
asked
the
young
woman.The
boy
paused
for
a
while.“Would
you
please
give
me
some...a
drink
of
water？”
the
boy
dare
not
look
directly
into
her
eyes.
She
looked
at
the
bony
boy
and
thought
he
might
need
something
to
give
himself
energy
so
she
brought
him
a
glass
of
milk.
His
head
rising
and
small
hands
taking
the
cup,
he
drank
it
up
slowly,
and
then
asked,
“How
much
do
I
owe
you？”“You
don't
owe
me
anything，”
she
replied
with
a
warm
smile
on
her
face.“My
mother
has
taught
me
never
to
accept
pay
for
a
kindness.”
Deeply
moved,
he
said
sincerely,
“Then
I
shall
thank
you
from
the
bottom
of
my
heart.”As
Howard
Kelly
left
that
house,
he
felt
stronger
physically.It
also
increased
his
faith
in
God
and
the
whole
human
race.As
a
matter
of
fact,
he
was
about
to
give
up
and
quit
before
that
point.
Years
later
the
young
woman
became
critically
ill.However,
the
local
doctors
were
unable
to
give
her
the
effective
medical
treatment.Finally
they
sent
her
to
a
hospital
in
the
big
city,
where
specialists
can
be
called
in
to
cure
her
rare
disease.Among
those
famous
specialists,
Dr
Howard
Kelly
was
called
in
for
the
consultation.
When
he
heard
the
name
of
the
town
she
came
from,
a
strange
light
filled
his
eyes.Immediately,
he
rose
and
went
down
through
the
hospital
hall
into
her
room.
