5．A baby is in danger and its mother is crazy with worry．This is something anyone can relate to，even though we are talking about a mother elephant that has been separated  （16）from her child．
A video capturing（捕捉） the reunion between the elephant and her 8-month-old baby in Kenya was one of the （17）most impressive （impressive） scenes in 2012．The baby fell inside  （18）a  man-made hole and was unable to climb out，according to a video released by the Amboseli Trust for Elephants．Despite the best efforts of her desperate mother，the baby seemed helpless  （19）till/until a team of conservation workers rushed to help．They had to chase the overprotective mother away first，so that （20）they  could get close enough to rescue the baby．They （21）struggled （struggle） to pull the baby out with ropes and a vehicle．
（22）Luckily  （lucky），the workers managed to pull the baby to safety．（23）What followed was a     touching scene．As soon as the baby was freed，it ran away across the plain．In the（24）distance  （distant），the cries of her mother could be heard as she came running from the opposite direction．The two were reunited，（25）hugging（hug）each other with their trunks hugging．

分析 本文是记叙文，文中介绍了一段视频捕捉到大象和她8 个月大的孩子团聚的场景．一头幼象陷入了陷阱无法爬上来，无论象妈妈如何努力．直到队环境保护工作者前来帮助．他们努力用绳子和车子把小象拉了上来．随后的场景令人感动，小象一获得自由就跑走了．在远处能听到妈妈的哭声．小象和妈妈团聚，它们拥抱在一起．

解答 16．from      17．most impressive  18．a      19．until/till   20．they
21．struggled  22．Luckily        23．What   24．distance   25．hugging
16．from． 本题考查介词搭配．separate …from…"把…与…分开"，为固定搭配，此处为被动结构．
17．most impressive．本查考查形容词最高级．  one of后用形容词最高级，表示"最…的之一"．
18．a．本题考查冠词；表示泛指"一个洞"，用不定冠词．
19．till/until．本题考查连词．根据句子结构判断，两句之间缺少连词；根据句意为"幼象似乎很无助，直到一队环境保护工作者跑来帮忙"，用until或till表示"直到"．
20．they．考查代词；指代a team of conservation workers，故用they．
21．struggled．本题考查动词时态；陈述过去的动作，用一般过去时．
22．Luckily．本题考查副词修饰整个句子．副词常常作为独立成分放在句首，有逗号与句子分开，修饰整个句子．
23．What．考查引导名词性从句的引导词．根据句子结构，was前的主语从句中缺少主语，故用what．
24．distnce．考查词性转换．distant 为形容词，题干中the后面需要的是名词distance；in the distance"在远处"，为固定短语．
25．hugging．本题考查非谓语动词做状语．逗号前已经有了谓语动词were reunited，所以hug在句中做状语；  hug与the two为主动关系，故用现在分词．

点评 语法填空用在整体理解文章的大意和逻辑的基础上关注每一句的结构，关注其中的固定搭配．

15．About ten years ago，a young and very successful businessman named Josh was traveling down a Chicago neighborhood street．He was going a bit too fast in his shiny，black，12cylinder Jaguar XKE，which was only two months old．
He was watching for kids rushing out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something．As his car passed，no child came out，but a brick sailed out and-WHUMP!-it hit the Jag's shiny black side door!SCREECH…!!!!Immediately Josh stopped the car，jumped out，seized the kid and pushed him up against a parked car．He shouted at the kid，"What was that all about and who are you？Just what are you doing？!"Building up a head of steam，he went on．"That's my new car and that brick you threw is going to cost you a lot of money．Why did you throw it？"
"Please，mister，please…I'm sorry!I didn't know what else to do!"begged the youngster．"I threw the brick because no one else would stop!"Tears were streaming down the boy's face as he pointed around the parked car．"It's my brother，Mister，"he said．"He rolled off the curb （路沿） and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up．"Sobbing，the boy asked the businessman，"Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair？He's hurt and he's too heavy for me．
Moved beyond words，the young businessman tried hard to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat．He lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the scrapes and cuts，checking to see that everything was going to be OK．
"Thank you，sir．And God bless you，"the grateful child said to him．He then watched the younger brother push him down the sidewalk toward their home．
It was a long walk back to the black，shining 12cylinder Jaguar XKE-a long and slow walk．Josh never did fix the side door of his Jaguar．He kept the dent （凹痕） to remind him not to go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at him to get his attention．Feel for the bricks of life coming at you．

20．Sunny countries are often poor．A shame，then，that solar power is still quite expensive．Eight 19，a British company by Cambridge University，has，however，invented a novel way to get round this．In return for a deposit of around dollar 10 it is supplying poor Kenyan families with a solar cell able to generate 2.5 watts of electricity，a battery that can deliver a three amp（安培） current to store this electricity，and a lamp whose bulb is a light-emitting diode（二极管）．The firm thinks that this system，once the battery is fully charged，is enough to light two small rooms and to power a mobile-phone charger for seven hours．Then，next day，it can be put outside and charged back up again．
The trick is that，to be able to use the electricity，the system's keeper must buy a scratch card-for as little as a dollar-on which is printed a reference number．The keeper sends this reference，plus the serial number of the household solar unit，by SMS to Eight19．The company's server will respond automatically with an access code to the unit．
Users may consider that they are paying an hourly rate for their electricity．In fact，they are paying off the cost of the unit．After buying around dollar 80 worth of scratch cards-which Eight19 expects would take the average family around 18 months-the user will own it．He will then have the option of continuing to use it for nothing，or of trading it in for a bigger one，perhaps driven by a 10-watt solar cell．
In that case，he would go then through the same process again，paying off the additional cost of the upgraded kit at a slightly higher rate．Users would therefore increase their electricity supply steadily and affordably．
According to Eight 19's figures，this looks like a good deal for customers．The firm believes the average energy-starved Kenyan spends around dollar 10 a month on oil-enough to fuel a couple of smoky lamps-plus dollar 2 on charging his mobile phone in the market-place．Regular users of one of Eight19's basic solar units will spend around half that，before owning it completely．Meanwhile，as the cost of solar technology falls，it should get even cheaper．

B．Recharge it outside．
C．Buy another solar cell．
D．Return it to the company．

10．Moral science is taught as a subject in most schools but with little effect．Perhaps part of the problem lies in the fact that morality（道德）is not a science，strictly speaking．It is too much of a social phenomenon，and also has too much of the personal and subjective（主观的）things mixed within．Besides，morality itself changes with generations．So it is impossible to be defined in a textbook．
    I remember sitting through forty minutes of moral lessons，which told stories about little children who never told lies and were rewarded for their goodness．It had little effect and left no impression on me，though．
    If moral science has to be taught as a subject in schools，it needs a participatory（参与其中的）approach．When you tell a child about morals，you also have to deal with social norms（规范）and cultural differences．You have to explain that morality can be subjective，and be able to co-exist in society．You will probably have to refer to the morals of the present time．
    The best way to tell a child how to live is to show him what is valued．If a child likes his friend，you have to make the child think about why．Once the child notices and recognizes goodness in others，he or she is likely to develop it as well．
    In fact，children learn most of their morals by watching people around them．They absorb behavior patterns from teachers and older students．They watch to see what is rewarded and who is punished．They learn on the sports field and through social work．Moral science lessons should simply consist of letting them live and interact，and watch you support correct values and reward good behavior．

67．Which is NOT the reason that moral science is taught in schools but with little effect？D
  A．Morality doesn't strictly belong to a science
  B．Morality is more like a social phenomenon．
  C．Different generations have different moral ideas．
  D．Morality can't be written down in textbooks．
68．The author describes his own experience of having moral lessons in order toC
  A．explain telling lies is not moral for little children．
  B．advise people should be rewarded for their goodness．
  C．prove moral lessons in schools have little effect．
  D．show he has no opinions about moral science．
69．When you tell a child about morals，you shouldB．
  A．teach him to share personal moral ideas with others
  B．tell him about social norms and cultural differences
  C．explain that nobody can influence his moral ideas．
  D．say that the present morals are likely to be changed
70．What is the last paragraph mainly about？A．
  A．The best way of teaching children about morals．
  B．The value of teachers'setting a good example
  C．The influence of people's behavior on morals．
  D．The importance of rewarding good behavior．
17．As students and teachers returned to school on Monday after the publication of performance ratings（等级） for 18，000 teachers，many parents said they were giving the reports serious thought．Yet there was an equal measure of skepticism among parents that test scores have any relationship with teachers'competence．
Some said they already knew how good a teacher was by walking into the classroom or by monitoring their children's progress．"I'm the kind of person who likes to see for themselves，"a father in Queens said．
Others worried about how their fellow parents，perhaps ones with sharper elbows，might respond．Will they demand a new teacher？Move their children to a new school？
Elizabeth Sane，the mother of a fourth grader at the Ella Baker School，a kindergarten-through-eighth-grade school on the Upper East Side，said that her daughter was switched to a different teacher's class over the summer，and that it was"like adding salt to the wound"when she saw the high ratings for her daughter's previous teacher．Her daughter's teacher this year did not receive a rating because he previously taught high school．
Ms．Sane said that the rating was not the only factor that influenced how she assessed a teacher's performance，but that the data used for teacher evaluations mattered．
But other parents dropping their children off at the Ella Baker School said they did not trust teacher ratings based on test scores any more than they wanted their children's learning measured only by the state exams．
"Some people take it as the final word，but it doesn't change who they are as teachers．The ratings aren't accurate，and the whole student testing thing needs to be thrown out，"said Lydia Delgado，whose child is in the second grade．

A．All the teachers received a rating given by the students．
B．All the teachers will receive a rating at the end of each semester，

D．With strong elbows physically．

A．was on the side of giving ratings to the teachers．
B．regretted having sent her daughter to another class．
C．didn't think her daughter's previous teacher was better．
D．wanted her daughter to return to her previous class．

14．Recently，university students around the world were asked to volunteer in a global experiment called Unplugged．It was designed to see how young people would react if they were asked to observe a total media ban by unplugging all forms of media devices for 24 hours．
Unplugged is being run by Dr Roman Gerodimos，a lecturer in Communication and Journalism at Bournemouth University．During the experiment，Dr Gerodimos said there were already  signs of how much the exercise affected volunteers．He said："They're reporting withdrawal symptoms，overeating，feeling nervous，isolated and disconnected．"
During their 24-hour test，three of the experiment's participants were followed around by a BBC reporter plus cameraman．They were asked to write down 100 lines about their day offline，but of course，they all waited until the next day when they had access to their laptops．
Elliot Day wrote："Today，my whole morning routine was thrown up into the air．Despite being  aware of the social importance of the media，I was surprised by how empty my life felt without the radio or newspapers．"
From Caroline Scott，we read："I didn't expect it，but being deprived of the media for 24 hours resulted in my day-to-day activities becoming so much harder to carry out than usual…I didn't break out in a cold sweat like our lecturer expected us all to，but It's not something l would like to do again！"
And Charlotte Gay wrote："I have to say the most difficult item for me to be without has been  my  mobile；not  only is it a social device，it's  my main access point of communication．"
Earlier in the year，a UK government study found that in the UK we spend about half our waking hours using the media，often plugged into several things at once．So，with technology continuing to develop at an alarming rate，how much time will you set aside for sleep in the future？
71．What can we learn about the volunteers？B
 A．Volunteers didn't write down about their day offline．
 B．Volunteers weren't allowed to use any media for 24 hours．

15．My neighbor Peter Gate's life was shadowed for years by the memory of his part in an outdoor adventure that resulted in the death of one of his classmates．He and his wife （21）Bafter six years of marriage．Then the news about Peter changed．His wife Betty came back； he （22）Ca fine position in a company．
One day he told me what had changed his （23）D：I used to think，‘Nothing can undo what I have done．'The thought of my guilt（罪恶感） would （24）B me in the middle of a smile or a handshake．It put a wall between my wife and me．Then I had an （25）Avisit from the person I （26）Bmost to see-the （27）C of the college classmate who died．"Years ago"，she said，"I found it in my heart，through prayer（祈祷），to（28）C you．Betty forgave you．So did your friends and employers．"She （29）D，and then said （30）A，"You are the one person who hasn't forgiven Peter Gate．Who do you think you are to （31）B the people of this town and God？""I （32）C her eyes and found there a kind of （33）Ato be the person I might have been if her son had lived．For the first time in my adult life I felt （34）B to love and be loved．"
So，you see，it is only through forgiveness of our （35）C that we gain the freedom to learn from experience．But forgiving our shortcomings doesn't mean（36）Athat they exist．（37）D，it means （38）A them honestly，realistically．（39）Cyou forgive，you cannot love．And without （40）B，life has no meaning．Forgiveness is a good quality．
