10.People in communities have slowly been pushed apart through the years,mostly because people simply aren't taking the time to say a simple"hello".After considering this phenomenon,I decided I was going to change the way I got on (16)withothers.
My opportunity came one morning when I was in the community library.I passed by a girl (17)whodropped her books out of her locker.(18)Thinking  (think) that someone else would help her pick them up,I continued (19)myway.However,when I had to go back (20)because I forgot my book,I noticed she had just finished picking them up by herself.No one had stopped (21)to help (help) her.
"OK,"I thought to myself,"this is where I should have changed."
My best opportunity came a few days later when I saw a man sitting by himself waiting for the library to open,so I sat down next to him and (22)began (begin) a conversation.(23)It was difficult to get started,and even when I had to say goodbye,almost every response from my new friend had a tone (语气) of doubt in it.And who could blame him?
People aren't used to making (24)an unprepared chat with a stranger.But a change,no matter how desperately it is needed,doesn't just happen.It takes people like us to make it possible.I advise you to take a small step out of your comfort zone and try to make someone's day a little (25)brighter (bright).Together,we can really make our society come closer as a whole.

分析 文章记述了一种社会现象---社区的人们在逐渐疏远,不远花时间打招呼.作者认为应该去改变自己与他人的相处方式,使社会更加亲近.一天在社区图书馆他看见一个女孩的书从储物柜中掉了出来,直到作者返回拿自己的书都没看到有人帮助女孩.作者决定必须改变自己了.几天后作者看见一个男人独自坐着等图书馆开门便主动与他聊天.开始一个没有准备的聊天很难,而且对方的每一个回答都是怀疑的语气.但是作者认为人们应该迈出自己的一小步使别人的某天变得明亮,进而大家一起让社会变得更亲近.

解答 16.with       17.who      18.Thinking    19.my      20.because
21.to help   22.began     23.It          24.an      25.brighter
16题答案:with.考查介词with,与,和.句子表达的是"我决定我要改变我和他人的相处方式".change the way I got on with others.I got on是定语从句,修饰先行词way;with others作way的补足语.故答案是with.
17题答案:who.考查定语从句.主句I passed by a girl是完整的句子,而后面的dropped her books out of her locker是修饰前面的girl,指人,所以用关系词who作从句主语,引导定语从句.故答案是who.
18题答案:Thinking.考查现在分词作原因状语.句子表达的是"认为其他人会帮她捡书,我继续赶路",句子主语是I,谓语是continued,前半部分句子是省略了同一个主语I,且动作think是I发出的,所以用现在分词形式thinking.句首首字母要大写,故答案是Thinking.
19题答案:my.名词way前面需要用形容词修饰.句子表达的是"我继续我的路",所以用形容词性的物主代词my修饰way.故答案是my.
20题答案:because.考查连词.when I had to go back 和 I forgot my book是两个完整的句子,"我忘记了我的书"是"我必须回去"的原因,所以用连词because引导原因状语从句.故答案是because.
21题答案:to help.考查词组stop to do sth.停下来去做某事.句子表达是"没有人停下来做帮助他",所以stopped后面用help的不定式形式to help.故答案是to help.
22题答案:began.考查时态.句子表达的是"我挨着他坐下来开始聊天","坐下"和"开始"都是作者发出的动作,所以时态要一致.sat是动词sit的过去式,所以begin也要用过去式 began.故答案是began.
23题答案:It.考查句型it is difficult to do sth.做某事是困难的.其中it是形式主语,真正的主语是句中的不定式短语to get started.句首首字母要大写,故答案是It.
24题答案:an.考查冠词.chat是可数名词,且前面unprepared是发音以元音音素开头的单词,句子是表示泛指"一个没有准备的聊天",所以用不定冠词an限定.故答案是an.
25题答案:brighter.考查比较级.根据后文的Together,we can really make our society come closer as a whole.我们就可以一起让整个社会变得更亲近,可知前句要表达的是"我建议你走出自己舒适区域的一小步,努力让他人的一天更明亮",所以用形容词bright的比较级brighter.故答案是brighter.

Alibaba began to hold Singles'Day promotions in 2009,and last year,its sales totaled 5.2billion yuan."I don't know whether we would lose money,but I don't think we could earn much on this day by selling goods at half price,"said Hao Hongfeng,chairman of Beijing Jiuxian E-Commerce,a liquor retailer in Beijing who took part in the event.He said it is a good opportunity for online retailers to get their names known.

15.Public schools in Washington,D.C.provide students with musical instruments for free.When something goes wrong with an instrument,Charles West and Larry Jernigan  do the repairs.Both men approach their work with a passion(激情).For them,it's important that students have a joyful experience with music.
The two have worked together for almost 20years.This year alone,they've fixed about 450instruments.Both men are musicians and music lovers,so learning to do repairs came naturally.
"I have been a musician all my life."says West."I played in an orchestra here in the city.I majored in music in college.I played in an army band."
Jernigan's musical interests are varied."I was formerly trained in the piano and guitar.The alto sax,and the flute,I picked up while working here."
In addition to fixing instruments,the two also go to schools to instruct teachers and students on how to make minor repairs on their own.
West believes if children start early and stay involved with music,it enriches other areas of their lives."I see that in other kids.I see it in myself.I have seen it hundreds of times and it works."he says."They learn teamwork.They learn patience and respect."
But West has concerns about the future of music in the electronic age."This instant age has taken away from the sit-down,the patience.And to learn to play an instrument,it takes patience,it takes diligence.It takes time."
Being able to enjoy music on the job is one of the benefits of the job.Both men agree their best rewards are the students'performances.

2.A pair of motorised shoes--the spnKiX that can propel the wearer at 10mph are expected to become a hit with comnluters,who travel a long distance to work every day,the Daily Mail reported.
The£415 battery powered creations are fastened to the owner's shoes and controlled via a wireless remote control.The spnKiX can travel between two and three miles per charge and steering is controlled by the wearer leaning into turns.Speed can be varied via the remote control and they come with removable training wheels to ease people into using them.
Designer Peter Treadway first came up with the idea five years ago after struggling to find a parking space.Since then he has created over30 models and is now set to release the shoes via his website in February.
Peter,from Los Angeles,California,said,"The idea just came to me one day when I was looking for a parking space in order to get some lunch.After driving around for half an hour I couldn't find one so had to drive back home instead.That got me thinking about a mode of transport that you could rise and then carry afterwards,thus spnKiX was born.
"We have had a lot of interest from commuters,who might only be travelling small distances and would like a cheap,environmental way of getting around.They are also getting a lot of attention from students.The shoes ale very easy to get used to-they almost feel like you are using a pair of roller skates.We have had some people concerned that they are just for lazy people,but actually there is quite a lot of exercise involved in turning corners and avoiding obstacles.They also mean people will be outdoors more often which can only be a good thing.Small rain or water pools on the street shouldn't be a problem but obviously they can't be drowned in water.They are easy to stop too,even if you are travelling downhill,they have a stoper like on roller skates."
The shoes are made from reinforced nylon and aluminium and can be fully charged in two to three hours.Peter added,"A lot of work has gone into creating them and we have spent a lot of time making them compact,easy to use and carry,and fun."
66.What's the best title of the text?A
A.The spnKiX is to be popular     B.How to use the spnKiX properly
C.The benefit of the spnKiX       D.The skills of making the spnKiX
67.Why did Peter create this kind of shoes?C
A.He was eager to get some lunch.    B.He often drove for a long time.
C.He couldn't find a parking place.    D.He liked to create something.
68.According to the text,the spnKiX of different typesD.
A.is designed for lazy people
B.can turn corners automatically
C.can't be used during rainy days
D.will be known on the Internet
69.It can be inferred from the text thatB.
A.more people will be outdoors
B.the spnKiX is environmentally-friendly
C.the spnKiX will be fully charged in two to three hours

B.the spnKiX can also be made from soft materials
C.there's a lot of work to do to improve the spnKiX
D.the spnkix takes a lot of time to pack firmly together.
19.Many years ago I lived in a western country.My very first job was in the city and I was excited to go to work by public transport!I had never been employed before and my chances of travelling on a bus by myself had always been very slim.So,I was very happy with my new lifestyle!
I left home each morning in time to catch the 8.05bus from the main road.One autumn morning I could see the bus approaching.I could also see an elderly lady walking with a lovely dog beside her.There were some youngsters behind her.
The bus arrived and we got on.Only eight passengers were permitted to travel standing.I was inside the bus when the conductor called,"Only eight standing passengers!Could the last one to get on please get off?"I saw those youngsters inside,right in front of me,and it occurred that they had jumped the queue!
I turned and saw the elderly lady with her dog about to get off.I moved quickly to get in front of her.I encouraged her to stay,knowing very well I would be late that morning,but it didn't bother me.It was only as I moved past her to get off the bus that I realized--she was blind!Her dog was her guide dog!
Well,I eventually got to the office.After the day's work I went to the bus stand in front of my office to make the return journey.What a pleasant surprise!The lady and her dog were there!I was really pleased because I would get a better chance to speak with her.I started the conversation and she recognized my Asian accent!She asked if I was the same person who helped her that morning.Amazing!From there onwards it was one long happy conversation.
These beautiful memories are still fresh in my mind.By helping others,I feel content!
