题目内容

19．Besides the content of a book，_____the editor also cares about is the number of readers．（　　）

A．

who

B．

why

C．

how

D．

what

分析除了书的内容，编辑同样关心的是读者的数量．

解答答案：D
题干所给的句子中，前面的the editor also cares about 是主谓结构（动词用了三单形式）；后面接了is the number of readers系表结构，说明前面的部分是充当了is的主语，是一个主语从句；主语从句中cares about 缺少宾语，要用连接代词，who指人，what指物．句意表达的是编辑关心的事，故选D．

点评在句子中起名词作用的各种从句统称为名词性从句．根据它们在句中的语法作用，这类从句又可分为主语从句、同位语从句、表语从句和宾语从句．本题中what在主语从句中起连接作用，同时又充当了从句的宾语．

4．Kenji Croman has broken his bones，his shoulder and elbow，and nearly drowned several times．He's also had three close encounters with sharks over the years．A 10-foot wave landed directly on top of him five years ago，bending his body to the point that he actually kicked himself in the head．"I literally heard every bone in my body crack，"he said．
Croman has been photographing ocean waves since 2008，sometimes risking his life to get that perfect shot at the surf break．Despite the risks and certain injuries that come with wave photography，the Hawaii resident，body surfer and former competitive swimmer wouldn't do anything else．The 36-year-old photographer loves the thrill of meeting breaking waves head on，shooting waves as his interest and shooting surfers to pay the bills．
The process of photographing waves requires more than just swimming out to where the surf breaks and waiting，he says．The night before a photo shoot Croman checks Surfline．com，a website and the coastal camera network that provides live and predicted ocean weather information，to see what the winds，waves and tide will be like at certain times．Croman has both a primary camera and a backup for emergencies．He goes without a wetsuit and uses heavy duty underwater housing to protect his camera．There is no great way for him to protect himself．He admits there are probably protective clothes he should be wearing，but there is little he could have done to decrease the impact of the lo-foot wave that crashed on top of him．
The hardest part of Croman's job is staying calm in the face of breaking waves when his initial reaction is to panic and swim away．At most，Croman will take two to three shots of a single wave．"I've shot waves for so many years now that I see the wave in slow movement，"he said．

11．Margaret Mitchell was born in Atlanta，Georgia，in 1900．Her father was a lawyer and the president of the Atlanta Historical Society，and her mother was a suffragette （a woman in support of extending the right to vote，especially to women） and an advocate of women's rights in general．Mitchell grew up listening to stories about Atlanta during the Civil War，stories often told by people who had lived through the war．Mitchell attended Smith College，a women's college in Northampton，Massachusetts．In 1919，she returned to Atlanta and began to live a lifestyle considered wild by the standards of the 1920s．After a disastrous first marriage，Mitchell began a career as a journalist and married an advertising executive named John Robert Marsh．In 1926，encouraged by her husband，Mitchell began to write the novel that would become Gone with the Wind．She went through nine complete drafts of the thousand-page work，setting an epic romance against the Civil War background she knew so well．In the first eight drafts，the protagonist （主角） was called Prissy Hamilton，not Scarlett O'Hara （as the character was renamed in the final draft）．
Gone with the Wind differs from most Civil War novels by glorifying the South and uglifying the North．Other popular novels about the Civil War，such as Stephen Crane's The Red Badge of Courage，are told from a Northern perspective and tend to exalt （颂扬） the North's values．Mitchell's novel is unique also for its portrayal of a strong-willed，independent woman，Scarlett O'Hara，who shares many characteristics with Mitchell herself．Mitchell frequently rejected convention，divorcing her first husband and pursuing a career in journalism despite the disapproval of society．
Female Intelligence and Capability are highlighted by Mitchell in the novel Gone with the Wind．Despite the severe gender inequality of their time，women in the novel show strength and intelligence that equals or bests the strength and intelligence of men．Scarlett is tricky，and manipulates men with ease．She runs Tara when her father falls ill，and eventually realizes that she has a better head for business than most men．She becomes a very successful mill owner，running every aspect of the business and putting her weak，incompetent husband to shame．Melanie，although she is a subdued （闷闷不乐的） figure，exhibits increasing strength as the novel progresses，and she eventually emerges as the novel's strongest female character．She provides much of Scarlett's strength，although Scarlett realizes this only at the end of the novel．Melanie also protects Ashley from the world he cannot face．Despite her humble means，she single-handedly facilitates （促进） the restoration of Atlanta society．Old Miss Fontaine and Ellen also demonstrate strength and intelligence．Both women act as head of the family，and the narrator describes Ellen as the true mind and strength behind Tara．
Gone with the Wind was published in 1936，ten years after Mitchell began writing it．A smash success upon publication，Gone with the Wind became-and remains even now-one of the best-selling novels of all time．It received the 1937 Pulitzer Prize．In the late 1930s a film version of the novel was planned，and David O．Selznick's nationwide search for an actress to play Scarlett O'Hara captivated the nation's attention．The resulting film starred Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable as Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler，and it quickly became one of the most popular motion pictures of all time．
Mitchell was less than thrilled by the sweeping popularity of her work．She found the spotlight uncomfortable and grew exhausted and ill．Gone with the Wind is her only novel，though she continued to write nonfiction．Mitchell volunteered extensively during World War II and seemed to regain her strength．In 1949 a car struck and killed Mitchell while she was crossing Peachtree Street in Atlanta．
Many critics question the literary merit and outdated racial attitude towards Gone with the Wind．Some consider the novel unattractive，partly because women of Mitchell's time rarely received credit for serious literary fiction and partly because the novel features a romance along with its historical plot．Both blacks and whites have harshly criticized Mitchell's sympathetic depiction （描写） of slavery and the Ku Klux Klan and her racist depiction of blacks．The novel is most valuable if read with an understanding of three historical contexts：our own，Mitchell's，and Scarlett's．
66．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage？A
A．Mitchell was well-educated at that time．
B．The novel Gone with the Wind is set in America after the Civil War．
C．Mitchell lived a conventional life in the 1920s．
D．The racial attitude towards Gone with the Wind is outdated．
67．How does Mitchell's novel differ from most Civil War novels？C
A．The main character shares many characteristics with Mitchell herself．
B．Mitchell's theme deals with the Civil War．
C．The South is praised while the North attacked in Mitchell's novel．
D．Mitchell's novel is told from a Northern perspective．
68．The author mentions some characters like Melanie in Paragraph 3 to indicate thatC
A．the severe gender inequality of the time
B．Melanie is the strongest woman in the novel
C．female strength and intelligence are valued in the novel
D．they provide much of Scarlett's strength
69．The underlined word"manipulates"is closest in meaning toB．
A．provides B．handles C．avoids D．trusts
70．The author writes the passage mainly toD．
A．analyze the characters in Gone with the Wind
B．inform readers of Mitchell's success and some criticism of her novel Gone with the Wind
C．prove the popularity of Gone with the Wind
D．provide some information about Mitchell and her novel Gone with the Wind．

8．The house will fall down soon if no one _______ some quick repair work．（　　）

This is what set her mind to create a product to help save bees. She decided she would sell lemonade and she started her company, BeeSweet Lemonade. Her special lemonade recipe came from her great-grandmother’s cookbook. She decided to add honey to it, instead of sugar, in order to call attention to the problems honey bees face. Mikaila sells lemonade almost every day at her lemonade stand! And she takes every opportunity to tell her customers about the problems facing honey bees.

What began as a small operation is starting to grow. BeeSweet is projected to sell almost 140,000 bottles of lemonade this year! BeeSweet lemonade can be found on the shelves at select Whole Foods Markets as well as many restaurants and other locations near her home in Austin, Texas.
