题目内容

1．A couple had been married for over 60 years．They shared everything，talked （1）abouteverything and kept no secrets from each other except that the woman had a box in a drawer（2）that/whichshe had told her husband not to open or ask her about．
He'd never thought about it ever since．One day（3）thewoman got very sick and the doctor said she wouldn't recover．To sort out their affairs，the husband took down the box and （4）brought（bring） it to his wife's bedside．She agreed it was time that he（5）knew/should know（know） what was in the box．
After（6）opening（open） it，he found two small table mats（垫子） and a sum of money totaling 25，000．He asked her about the contents．"When we were to be married，"she said，"my grandma told me the secret of happy（7）marriage（marry） was never to argue，and I should just keep quiet and make a mat（8）if/whenI got angry with you．"
The man was so（9）moved（move） that he had to fight back his tears．She had only been angry with him twice in all those years of living and loving！"Honey，"he said，"that explains the mats，but what about the money？Where did it come from？"
"Oh，"she said，"that's the money I made from selling （10）them．"

分析 本文主要讲述的是一对夫妇已经结婚60多年了，他们分享一切，谈论一切，彼此之间没有秘密，除了那个女人在抽屉里有一个盒子，她告诉她丈夫不要打开它或问她关于这个盒子的事情．最后女人病得很重，医生说她不会康复了．此时，她同意丈夫把盒子打开．原来盒子里装的是女人卖小茶几垫攒的钱．

解答 1．about 考查介词的用法．根据They shared everything，talked （1）everything可知他们分享和谈论每一件事．talk about是固定搭配，意为：谈论．故该处填about．
2．that/which 考查定语从句．______she told her husband never to open or ask her about为定语从句，修饰先行词a box；定语从句中缺少open和about的宾语，指物，用关系代词that/which．故该处填that/which．
3．the 考查定冠词．本句中的女士特指上文中提到的妻子，因此，用定冠词the．故该处填the．
4．brought 考查动词时态．and连接并列谓语，前后时态保持一致．took为过去式，因此，本空应填bring的过去式brought．故该处填brought．
5．knew/should know 考查固定句式．It's time that sb．did/should do sth．是某人该做某事的时候了．故该处填knew/should know．
6．opening 考查非谓语动词作状语．主语he与open之间为主动关系，应用现在分词做状语．因此，本空填opening．
7．marriage 考查名词．a+形容词+名词．因此，本空填marry的名词形式marriage．故该处填marriage．
8．if/when 考查连词．当我生气的时候，我应当保持安静，并做一个垫子；如果我生气的话，我应当保持安静，并做一个垫子．两种说法都成立，因此，本空填when或if都可以．故该处填if/when．
9．moved 考查形容词．句意：男士是如此的感动以至于不得不抑制住泪水．moved的意思是："感动的"．故该处填moved．
10．them 考查代词．指代the mats小茶几垫，其是复数形式，所以应用代词them．故该处填them．

Food waste，which has become a global issue，serves as a mirror that reflects various cultural and social issues in different countries．In the West，for instance，consumerism，the belief that it's a good thing to use a lot of goods and services，is often to blame for food waste．（13）BChinese people are well known for being hospitable and generous．Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food．On campus，a generation of single children is less aware of the food waste issue．Students nowadays are well protected by their families and hardly have any concept of how much toil others go through in order to provide them with the food they eat．（14）EThere are over 925 million hungry people in the world，most of whom live in underdeveloped countries and areas．They don't have enough food to eat．Many children die for lack of nutrition each year in some African countries．And farmers work very hard to grow the crops．（15）FIt's also important that everyone should think about how they can do their bit to reduce food waste．

13．Swimming along a river in western Florida，a newborn manatee（海牛） calls out for her mother．But the baby hears no answer．The mother has disappeared，possibly frightened away by a passing motorboat．Longing for her mom's gentle touch，the confused manatee begins rubbing against the closest big thing she can find-a boat．
From his home beside the river，Richard Dash sees the manatee rubbing against the boat．He keeps watch on the animal，hoping the mother will appear．But after two hours，she's still alone．Dash calls the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission for help．"A baby manatee needs its mother to show it where to find food，"says Andrew Garrett，a rescue coordinator（协调员） at the organization．"Without a mother's guidance，chances of survival are pretty much zero．"
A rescue team rushes to the scene to catch the newborn，and then takes off for the rehabilitation（康复） center at Lowry Park Zoo．After arriving at the center，the manatee is given a checkup by the workers．The doctor's exam shows that the manatee，now named Kee，is dangerously underweight．At less than 50pounds，she's one of the smallest orphans（失去生母的幼小动物） ever treated at the zoo．The baby is placed in a pool where the workers give her 24-hour care．Gradually Kee puts on pounds and gains strength．
A few weeks later，an adult manatee recovering at the center from an accident has a baby．This gives animal care manager Virginia Edmonds an idea．She decides to introduce Kee to the new mom，named Della．Edmonds hopes that Della will raise Kee alongside her own baby，Pal．So the workers place the three manatees in the same pool．Within hours Della is nursing Kee with her milk．Soon Kee is getting all of her food from Della．

10．In colleges around the country，most students are also workers．
The reality of college can be pretty different from the images presented in movies and television．Instead of the students who wake up late，party all the time，and study only before exams，many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities，but real jobs，too．
This isn't a temporary phenomenon．The share of working students has been on the rise since the 1970s，and one-fifth of students work year round．About one-quarter of those who work while attending school have both a full-course load and a full-time job．The arrangement can help pay for tuition （学费） and living costs，obviously．And there's value in it beyond the direct cause：such jobs can also be critical for developing important professional and social skills that make it easier to land a job after graduation．With many employers looking for students with already-developed skill sets，on-the-job training while in college can be the best way to ensure a job later on．
But it's not all upside．Even full-time work may not completely cover the cost of tuition and living expenses．The study notes that if a student worked a full-time job at the federal minimum wage，they would earn just over $15，000 each year，certainly not enough to pay for tuition，room，and board at many colleges without some serious financial aid．That means that though they're sacrificing time away from the classroom，many working students will still graduate with at least some debt．And working full time can reduce the chance that students will graduate at all，by cutting into the time available for studying and attending classes．
There is little reward for attending but not finishing college．Students who end up leaving school because of difficulty in managing work and class are likely to find themselves stuck in some of the same jobs they might have gotten if they hadn't gone at all．The difficulty of working too much while in school can create a cycle that pushes students further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits．
28．According to the passage，the reality of college students is thatC．
A．they throw parties a lot                
B．they stay up late every night          
C．they work besides attending classes    
D．they pay no attention to exams
29．What is the indirect cause of an increasing number of working students？C
A．The need of developing social networks．
B．The lack of summer jobs for young adults．
C．The chance of finding a job after graduation．
D．The expenses of high tuition and living costs．
30．We can learn from the passage thatD．
A．working students are more likely to finish college
B．students can cover their college expenses through working
C．students receive a huge reward for managing work and class
D．dropping out of college may not help students get career benefits
31．What is the best title for the passage？B
A．The Difficulties of Landing a Job
B．The Struggle of Work-School Balance           
C．The Reward of Working While Studying
D．The Images of Working College Students．
11．Third-Culture Kids
  Did you grow up in one culture，your parents came from another，and you are now living in a totally different country？If so，then you are a third-cu lture kid!
  The term"third-culture kid"（or TCK） was coined in the 1960s by Dr．Ruth．She first came across this phenomenon when she researched North American children living in India．Caught between two cultures，they form their very own．（36）BAbout 90 percent of them have a university degree，while 40 percent pursue a postgraduate or doctor degree．They usually benefit from their intercultural experience，which helps them to grow into successful academics and professionals．
（37）AIn fact many hardships may arise from this phenomenon．A third-culture kid may not be able to adapt themselves completely to their new surroundings as expected．Instead，they may always remain an outsider in different host cultures．Max，for example，experienced this fundamental feeling of strangeness throughout his life as a third-culture kid．（38）GWhile this can be a way to create a network of friends all around the world，it can be difficult for a third-culture kid like Max to maintain close friendships and relationships．
  For a third-culture kid，it is often easier to move to a new foreign country than to return to their"home"country．After living in Australia and South Korea for many years，Louis finally returned to Turkey as a teenager．But she felt out of place when she returned to the country where she was born．
（39）FShe did not share the same values as her friends'even years after going back home．
While a third-culture kid must let go of their identity as foreigner when he/she returns，the home country can prove to be more foreign than anything he/she came across before．The peer group they face does not match the idealized image children have of"home"．（40）C  As a part of the growing"culture"，TCKs may find it a great challenge for them to feel at home in many places．
A．Yet being a third-culture kid is not always easy．
B．In general，they often reach excellent academic results．
C．This often makes it hard for them to form their own identity．
D．However，their parents can help them see the opportunities of a mobile lifestyle．
E．Their experience abroad helps them to gain a better understanding of cultural differences．
F．Unlike other teens of her age，she didn't know anything about current TV shows or fashion trends．
G．Additionally，making new friends and saying goodbye to old ones will at some point become routine for a third-culture kid．
