【解析】

试题分析:

1考查动词的现在分词形式。动词可以有两种分词形式,现在分词形式主要表示主动,用作形容词,一般表示物的特性或功能,通常译为“使人……,令人……”。动词的过去分词形式,通过表示被动,用作形容词表示人的感受,通常译为“感到……的”。句意为:这些年我一直在教孩子们简单但是强大的观念——蚂蚁哲学,一种惊人的哲学,共分为四部分。这里用amazing来形容“哲学”,故用现在分词形式作形容词。故填amazing

2考查quit的用法。quit doing sth放弃/停止做某事。所以look要用ing形式,即looking。

3考查supposed的用法。be supposed to do sth应该做某事。所以suppose要用被动形式,即are supposed。

4考查固定搭配。prepare vt,准备。preparation n,可数名词准备。make preparations for做好……的准备。句意:他们总是在仲夏的时候,为冬天准备食物,为漫长而寒冷的冬天做准备。故填preparations

【题目】

About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio(影棚)to take part in a crowd-scene. Although our "act" would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things.

We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at the edge of a winding path. Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position. The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby. Since it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path. A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in "snow". Two more fans were turned on, and a "strong wind" blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.

The next scene was a complete contrast (对比). The way it was filmed was quite unusual. Pictures taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen (幕). An actor and actress stood in front of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water's edge on an island. By a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!

Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film "stars"!

【1】 Who is the author?

A. A cameraman.

B. A film director.

C. A crowd-scene actor.

D. A workman for scene setting.

【2】 What made the author feel cold?

A. The heavy snowfall.

B. The man-made scene.

C. The low temperature.

D. The film being shown.

【3】 What would happen in the "three minutes" mentioned in the last paragraph?

A. A new scene would be filmed.

B. More stars would act in the film.

C. The author would leave the studio.

D. The next scene would be prepared.

【题目】A little boy invited his mother to attend his elementary(初级的) school’s first teacher-parent meeting. To the little boy’s unhappiness, she said she would go.

The boy never wanted to talk about why or how she got the scar.

He did, however, get within earshot of(在听力范围之内) a conversation ___3____ his mother and his teacher, and heard them speaking.

‘‘How did you get the scar on your face? ’’ The teacher asked.

The mother replied, ‘‘When my son was a baby, he was in a room that caught on fire. Everyone was too afraid to go in 4 the fire was out of control, so I went in. As I was rushing toward his bed, I saw a beam(房梁) coming down and I placed myself over him trying to protect him. I was knocked unconscious(无意识的) but fortunately, a fireman came in and saved both of us.’’ She touched the burned side of her face. ‘‘This scar will be on my face for ever, but to this day, I have never regretted doing ____5___I did.’’

At this point, the little boy came out , running towards his mother with tears in his eyes. He hugged her and felt a great sense of the sacrifice that his mother had made for him. He held her hand tightly for the rest of the day.

【题目】 The Brown Bear

My wife Laura and I were on the beach, with three of our children, taking pictures of shore birds near our home in Alaska when we spotted a bear. The bear was thin and small, moving aimlessly.

Just a few minutes later, I heard my daughter shouting, Dad! The bear is right behind us! An aggressive bear will usually rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute. This one was silent and its ears pinned back--the sign(迹象) of an animal that is going in for the kill. And it was a cold April day. The bear behaved abnormally, probably because of hunger.

I held my camera tripod(三脚架) in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me. Its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders, and the tripod stuck across its mouth. It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight. I knew I would not be able to hold it for long.

Even so, this was a fight I had to win: I was all that stood between the bear and my family, who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear.

The bear hit at the camera, cutting it off the tripod. I raised my left arm to protect my face; the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side. My arm could not move, and I sensed that my bones were going to break.

Drawing back my free hand, I struck the bear as hard as I could for five or six times. The bear opened its mouth and I grasped its fur, trying to push it away. I was actually wrestling(扭打) with the bear at this point. Then, as suddenly as it had begun, the fight ended. The bear moved back towards the forest, before returning for another attack--the first time I felt panic.

Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat, the bear moved off, destroying a fence as it went. My arm was injured, but the outcome for us could hardly have been better. I'm proud that my family remained clear-headed when panic could have led to a very different outcome.

【1】The brown bear approached the family in order to ______ .

A. catch shore birds

B. start an attack

C. protect the children

D. set up a barrier for itself

【2】 The bear finally went away after it ______ .

A. felt safe

B. got injured

C. found some food

D. took away the camera

【3】 The writer and his family survived mainly due to their ______ .

A. pride

B. patience

C. calmness

D. cautiousness
