题目内容

You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their hands. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead!Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are well trained. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks (花招,手段). Here are two sides to their work. They do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntmen’s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.
Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously hurt, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, flew over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. Although it is full of deadly dangers, this is no longer the work for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous actions. For nowadays there are stuntwomen too! (357)
小题1:Stuntmen are those who ______.
A.often dress up as famous actors
B.prefer to lead dangerous lives
C.often perform dangerous actions
D.often fight each other for their lives

A.Fights in the Movies.B.Crashing Out of the Window.

试题分析:这篇文章主要介绍了特技替身演员。他们使用花招和手段。通常他们的成功依赖精确的时间计算。他们的报酬很高,但是特技表演也有危险。他们常常受伤,有时有会死亡。
小题1:细节理解题。根据Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are well trained. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen.句意:因为从高高的窗户上掉下来,或者从飞驰的火车上跳下来,或者撞车着火的这些人是受过好好训练的。他们这么做是为了生计。这些人叫做特技替身演员。故选C。
小题2:推理判断题。划线句句意:常常特技演员的成功依赖精确的时间计算。例如:当他在战争场景里被炸飞时,他必须在正确的时间在爆炸中跳起来。可知他们应该在合适的时间做计划好的事。故选B。
小题3:标题归纳题。这篇文章主要介绍了特技表演这个危险的工作。故选D。

When I was a little child ,my parents took me to German. 小题1:  .When I came back, I could speak German fluently. “ Can I do something useful with German?” I asked myself.
Then, I got a good opportunity last spring. During that time our university had a long holiday, so I stayed at home with nothing to do.   小题2:  . “ Why don’t you translate(翻译) it into Chinese? It will be better than playing computer games all day.” I agreed happily.
I promised to do 4,000 words each day. But soon I found it was hard to keep the promise.
One day in May, the weather was beautiful. 小题3:   .Those 4,000 words were still waiting for me. After translating only three pages, I already lost interest in the book. I looked at it for a long time. But I couldn’t make myself turn the pages.    小题4:    
I counted (数)the words again and again. I just wanted to give up. I felt as if two people were fighting in my mind. One said, “Don’t give up! Keep working hard ,and you will do well!” But then the other one said, “Go and play! It will be more interesting than translating. Do your homework tomorrow.”
I stood up and would turn off the computer. But then I remembered what my parents had told me, “ Whatever(无论什么) you do, don’t stop half way.”  小题5:    .

It was early evening on September 14th. Glen James, a homeless man was passing by a store inBoston when he happened upon a black bag. To see whose the bag is, Glen opened it only to find that it was filled with money - $2,400 in cash and almost $40,000 in traveler’s checks, as well as, a passport and other papers.
While other people in similar situations would have been tempted (引诱), Glen who has been homeless since 2005, did not even think twice. He showed the bag to a police officer, and the police officer gave it back to a Chinese tourist who had reported it lost. What Glen did was reported by newspapers, all over the country.
While most people that read itfelt surprised at the man’s honesty, 27-year-old Ethan Whittington thought Glen should get money for what he did. So he decided to set up a money collection website. He set a goal of $50,000, which he believed was reasonable because it was more than what Glen had discovered in the bag. The marketing manager fromVirginia thought he would be lucky to raise a few hundred dollars. Instead, within just a day, the website had gone over the $50,000 goal, encouraging Ethan to set a higher goal of $250,000 so that he could help Glen buy a house and start a new life.
As of now, $113,000 has been raised. Ethan who has talked to Glen over the phone, plans to visit Boston soon and also help him manage the money wisely. Needless to say, the homeless man is surprised at whathe is receiving for doing the right thing – Honesty, certainly pays off!

Dear Alice,
You really have two difficult questions here, so we’ll discuss them one at a time. Your problems at school may be a result of a number of things. You don’t say much about how these classmates get along with each other. It’s possible that all the students are feeling a little cautions(谨慎) in the first term.
It’s also possible that the others are unkind. If this is so, you have to find out why you are the class “outsider”.
In your letter you often offer to help others with their work. Is it possible that your classmates didn’t understand your offers? Could it seem that you were trying to “buy” friends with these offers?
Is it possible that you took no notice of your classmates when you had your good friends near you? They may have left hurt at that time. It may take a time for them to believe in you. If so, try to ask one classmate directly what the problem is. If you hear a negative(负面的) answer,at least you’ll know what to do.
Yours,
Shelia

Sometimes it is impossible to deliver(投递)all the mail that arrives at the post office. Perhaps there is an        mailing address and there is no return address. The post office cannot just        the mail, so it becomes “dead mail”. Dead mail is      to one of the U.S. Post Service’s in Atlanta, New York, and San Francisco. Seventy-five million pieces of mail can be put in these offices in one year.
There the workers of the dead mail offices have        ways to deal with all of these pieces of dead mail. First of all, they look for        that can help them deliver the mail; they open packages, expecting that something        will show where the package came from or is going to. Dead mail will also be listed on a       so that people can call in and check to see if a missing thing is there on the screen. However, all of this mail cannot simply be       forever; there is just too much of it. When a lot of dead mail comes together, the dead mail offices hold public auctions (拍卖). Every three months, some people who are        are invited to the offices with objects found in dead mail packages and they are sold to the       bidder (出价者).
