This afternoon I went to see my grandfather by a bus．It was very crowded and I had to stand．Besides me there was a woman held a little boy in her arms．In front of her，a young man occupies two seats，pretending to be sleeping．I heard the little boy curious asking his mother，"What's wrong with the uncle？"I had thought if perhaps the woman would blame the man．Beyond her expectations，the woman answered with a smile，"Be quiet．This uncle must very tired because of hard work．"The young man must have heard the word．His face turned red and offered one seat for the woman at once．

分析 文章大意：本文主要讲了在公共汽车上发生的事情． 作者乘坐公共汽车去看望爷爷，车上很拥挤．在作者的旁边有一位抱着小孩的妇女，在她前面有位年轻人占了两个座位，假装在睡觉．那个小男孩问："这个叔叔怎么了？"妈妈回答："安静．这位叔叔肯定因为辛苦工作而疲劳了．"那个年轻人一定听到他们的对话，感到不好意思，立即让了座位．

解答 This afternoon I went to see my grandfather by a  bus．It was very
 
crowded and I had to stand．Besides me there was a woman held a little boy
                                            Beside                            holding
in her arms．In front of her，a young man occupies two seats，pretending to be
                                                             occupied
sleeping．I heard the little boycurious asking his mother，"What's wrong with
                                              curiously
the uncle？"I had thoughtifperhaps the woman would blame the man．
                              that或去掉if
Beyondherexpectations，the woman answered with a smile，"Be quiet．This
          my
uncle must∧very tired because of hard work．"The young man must have
             be
heard the word．His face turned red and offered one seatfor the woman at
            words                                                                   to
once．

 1．去掉a，考查冠词．by bus是固定搭配．，乘坐公交车．2．Besides改为Beside 考查介词．这里的beside是介词"在…旁边"；句意为：在我的旁边是一个抱着孩子的妇女．
 3．held改为holding 考查非谓语动词．本句指的动词hold与前面的名词a woman构成主动关系，故使用现在分词短语在句中作定语修饰名词a woman，指抱着孩子的那个妇女．
 4．occupies改为occupied 考查时态．本文讲述的是过去发生的事情，故使用一般过去时occupied．
5．curious改为curiously 考查副词．只有副词curiously修饰动词asking his mother，意思是：好奇地问她的妈妈．
6．if改为that或者去掉if 考查宾语从句． 动词think后面的宾语从句可以用that引导，that在句中不充当任何成分，可以省略．
7．her改为my，考查人称代词．根据句意：超出我的预料，是指我没有预料到，而不是她．
8．must后面加be 考查谓语动词形式．本句使用的是"must+动词原形"对现在的情况进行的推测，must be tired一定很累了．
 9．word改为words 考查名词单复数．用复数形式words表示所说的话．
10．for改为to 考查介词搭配．固定搭配offer sth to sb 向某人提供某物．

点评 本题考查较为细致，要求考生要特别耐心答题中注意句子中人称和数是否一致，时态是否一致．各种词性之间的区别以及一些常用句型，固定短语的应用．一般的这类题型不会出现太复杂的单词和句子，这类题型考察基础知识较多．平时应注重积累，熟记一些句型及惯用结构．修改前先细读短文，标出出错的位置，改完以后还得细读短文，看看改过后的短文是否语意通顺，符合逻辑．

6．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"!

B．A film director．
C．A crowd-scene actor．

11．How fit are your teeth？Are you lazy about brushing them？Never fear：An inventor is on the case．An electric toothbrush senses how long and how well you brush，and it lets you track your performance on your phone．
The Kolibree toothbrush was exhibited at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week．It senses how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection．
The toothbrush will be able to teach you to brush right （don't forget the insides of the teeth!） and make sure you're brushing long enough．"It's kind of like having a dentist actually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis，"says Thomas Serval，the French inventor．
The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone，so developers could，for instance，create a game controlled by your toothbrush．You could score points for beating monsters among your teeth．"We try to make it smart but also fun，"Several says．
Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father．He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth．They said"yes，"but Serval would find their toothbrush heads dry．He decided he needed a brush that really told him how well his children brushed．
The company says the Kolibree will go on sale this summer，for 99to199，developing on features．The U．S．is the first target market．
Serval says that one day，it'll be possible to replace the brush on the handle with a brushing unit that also has a camera．The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush．

56．Which is one of the feature of the Kolibree toothbrush？A
A．It can sense how users brush their teeth．
B．It can track users'school performance．
C．It can detect users'fear of seeing a dentist．
D．It can help users find their phones．
57．What can we learn from Serval's words in Paragraph 3？C
A．You will find it enjoyable to see a dentist．
B．You should see your dentist on a day-to-day basis．
C．You can brush with the Kolibree as if guided by a dentist．
D．You'd like a dentist to watch you brush your teeth every day．
58．Which of the following might make the Kolibree toothbrush fun？B
A．It can be used to update mobile phones．
B．It can be used to play mobile phone games
C．It can send messages to other users 
D．It can talk to its developers．
59．What is Paragraph 5mainly about？D
A．How Serval found out his kids lied to him．
B．Why Serval thought brushing teeth was necessary．
C．How Serval taught his kids to brush their teeth．
D．What inspired Serval to invent the toothbrush
60．What can we infer about Serval's children？A

8．Pacing and Pausing
Sara tried to befriend her old friend Steve's new wife，but Betty never seemed to have anything to say．While Sara felt Betty didn't hold up her end of the conversation，Betty complained to Steve that Sara never gave her a chance to talk．The problem had to do with expectations about pacing and pausing．
Conversation is a turn-taking game．When our habits are similar，there's no problem．But if our habits are different，you may start to talk before I'm finished or fail to take your turn when I'm finished．That's what was happening with Betty and Sara．
It may not be coincidental that Betty，who expected relatively longer pauses between turns，is British，and Sara，who expected relatively shorter pauses，is American．Betty often felt interrupted by Sara．But Betty herself became an interrupter and found herself doing most of the talking when she met a visitor from Finland．And Sara had a hard time cutting in on some speaker s from Latin America or Israel．
The general phenomenon，then，is that the small conversation techniques，like pacing and pausing，lead people to draw conclusions not about conversational style but about personality and abilities．These habitual differences are often the basis for dangerous stereotyping （思维定式）．And these social phenomena can have very personal consequences．For example，a woman from the southwestern part of the US went to live in an eastern city to take up a job in personnel．When the Personnel Department got together for meetings，she kept searching for the right time to break in--and never found it．Although back home she was considered outgoing and confident，in Washington she was viewed as shy and retiring．When she was evaluated at the end of the year，she was told to take a training course because of her inability to speak up．
That's why slight differences in conversational style--tiny little things like microseconds of pause-can have a great effect on one's life．The result in this case was a judgment of psychological problems---even in the mind of the woman herself，who really wondered what was wrong with her and registered for assertiveness training．

64．What did Sara think of Betty when talking with her？C
A．Betty was talkative．
B．Betty was an interrupter．
C．Betty did not take her turn．
D．Betty paid no attention to Sara．
65．According to the passage，who are likely to expect the shortest pauses between turns？B
A．Americans．
B．Israelis．
C．The British．
D．The Finns．
66．We ca n learn from the passage thatC
A．communication breakdown results from short pauses and fast pacing
B．women are unfavorably stereotyped in eastern cities of the US
C．one's inability to speak up is culturally determined sometimes
D．one should receive training to build up one's confidence
67．The underlined word"assertiveness"in the last paragraph probably meansD
A．being willing to speak one's mind
B．being able to increase one's power
C．being ready to make one's own judgment
D．being quick to express one's ideas confidently．

5．I was born under the Blue Ridge，and under that side which is blue in the evening light，in a wild land of game and forest and rushing waters．There，on the borders of a creek that runs into the Yadkin River，in a cabin that was chinked with red mud，I came into the world a subject of King George the Third，in that part of his realm known as the province of North Carolina．
The cabin smelt very strongly of corn-pone and bacon，and the odor of pelts．It had two shakedowns（临时床铺），on one of which I slept under a bearskin．A rough stone chimney was raised outside，and the fireplace was as long as my father was tall．There was a crane in it，and a bake kettle； and over it great buckhorns held my father's rifle when it was not in use．On other horns hung jerked bear's meat and venison hams，and gourds for drinking cups，and bags of seed，and my father's best hunting shirt； also，in a neglected corner，several articles of woman's clothing．These once belonged to my mother．Among them was a gown of silk，of a fine，faded pattern，which I always wondered．The women at the Cross-Roads，twelve miles away，were dressed in coarse butternut wool and huge sunbonnets．But when I questioned my father on these matters he would give me no answers．
My father was-how shall I say what he was？To this day I can only surmise many things of him．He was a Scotchman born，and I know now that he had a slight Scotch accent．At the time of which I write，my early childhood，he was a frontiersman and hunter．I can see him now，with his hunting shirt and leggins （绑腿） and moccasins（莫卡辛鞋）； his powder horn，engraved with wondrous scenes； his bullet pouch and tomahawk and hunting knife．He was a tall，lean man with a strange，sad face．And he talked little except when he drank too many"horns，"as they were called in that country．These little bad behaviors of my father's were a permanent source of wonder to me-and，I must say，of delight．They occurred only when a passing traveler who hit his fancy chanced that way，or，what was almost as rare，a neighbor．Many a winter night I have lain awake under the skins，listening to a flow of language that held me spellbound，though I understood scarce a word of it．P．F．Productions
"Virtuous（有德行的） and vicious（罪恶的） every man must be，
Few in the extreme，but all in a degree．"
The chance neighbor or traveler was no less struck with wonder．And many the time have I heard the query，at the Cross-Roads and elsewhere，"Whar Alec Trimble got his larnin'？"
