【题目】As I write this I’m sitting on a bus back to Santiago in Chile where I am currently working as a language assistant. I’ve just spent the weekend in a city 【1】 (call) La Serena north of Santiago. I was lucky enough to see the flowering desert, a natural phenomenon that 【2】 (occur) around every five years here in the Atacama Desert.

【3】 (follow) a particularly large amount of rainfall earlier, a(n) 【4】(vary) of flowers come into blossom. Bright purple flowers create 【5】 unbelievably beautiful scene at the base of the surrounding mountains.

【6】 (catch) a glimpse of this magnificent treasure of nature, we took a bus from La Serena to a nearby town and then rented a car to go to the desert. 【7】 we saw did not disappoint us, and as expected it was even more fascinating than the pictures we had seen online. The bloom was particularly 【8】 (impress) this year due to the strong presence of El Nio (a band of warm water in the Pacific Ocean that changes the temperatures and increases the rainfall in certain areas). The vast carpet of colour 【9】 spread into the distance towards the contrasting green hills was 【10】 (simple) breathtaking and deserved a large amount of photos! A real reminder of the beauty our planet can provide.

【答案】

【1】called

【2】occurs

【3】Following

【4】variety

【5】an

【6】To catch

【7】What

【8】impressive

【9】that/which

【10】simply

【解析】　本文属于记叙文。本文记叙了作者坐在一辆公共汽车上所看到的开花的沙漠．这一壮丽的自然景象，给作者以深刻的印象。

【1】called

　考查过去分词作定语。句意：我刚刚在一座名叫拉塞雷娜北圣地亚哥的城市度过了周末。Call修饰名词a city，两者之间是被动关系，城市被叫….,故要用过过去分词作定语。所以called.

【2】occurs

　考查谓语动词。句意：我幸运地看到了开花的沙漠，这是阿塔卡马沙漠每五年发生一次的自然现象。a natural phenomenon that occurs…本句是定语从句，先行词是a natural phenomenon，在从句中作主语，单数，指物用that，所以谓语动词occur 要用单数occurs。

【3】Following

　考查非谓语作状语。Follow与逻辑主语flowers是主动关系，故要用following .

【4】variety

　考查固定搭配。A variety of 各种各样的，为固定搭配。故要用vary的名词形式variety.

【5】an

　考查冠词。句意：明亮的紫色花创造出一个难以置信的美丽场景。表数量的，“一”

【6】To catch

　考查动词不定式表目的。句意：为了看一眼这壮丽的大自然的瑰宝，我们…..。所以用To catch.

【7】What

　考查主语从句。_____we saw 本句是主语从句，其中saw缺少宾语，故要用What 。

【8】impressive

　考查形容词作表语。句意：这花特别引人注目(impressive).

【9】that/which

　考查引导定语从句的关系词。The vast carpet of colour _____9_____ spread into the distance towards the contrasting green hills。本句是定语从句，先行词是The vast carpet of colour 在从句中作主语，故可以用that /which。

【10】simply

　考查副词作状语修饰形容词。用simply 来修饰动词breathtake，故要用副词。

I wandered into the small store where I usually buy milk, when the store owner received a call from a customer. The customer and his wife had shopped there several months earlier. He noticed that his wife really liked one thing in the store, so he wanted to buy it as a surprise.
But the customer was in Tennessee, far away from the store which was in Maine. What was more, he had been to the store several months earlier, and it was difficult to believe that the store owner would remember him, or what he was looking for.
The store owner took a few close-up photos with her camera, and e-mailed them to the customer on the computer. The customer looked at the photos, and decided which one he wanted. They talked and discussed a price over the phone. She took care of the credit card transaction (交易) online, and promised the gift would be shipped out that afternoon.
The store owner was really smart. She was willing to push herself to find new ways to make the transaction actually happen. And it did work. However, it was the first time she had ever done it.
I was amazed that the store owner discovered a creative solution that could lead to a new way of doing business. I was impressed by what she did—so easily, but how difficult it is for many of us to make that leap(飞跃). I'm not just talking about technology, but about learning how to adapt to change. Most people hate or fear change unless they get to know exactly what change needs to be made. However, we should realize that challenge and opportunity go hand in hand.
（1）According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A.The owner often did business by using her camera.
B.The customer had ever been to the store before.
C.The owner and the customer discussed the price on the computer.
D.The gift was sent out by train that afternoon.
（2）The author was impressed by the store owner because _________.
A.she was always ready to help others
B.she told the writer how to run a store
C.she was a successful businesswoman
D.she managed to find a new way when facing change
（3）What's the correct order of the store owner's solution?
a. e-mailing the photos to the customer on the computer
b. taking care of the credit card transaction online
c. taking a few close-up photos with her camera
d. talking about the price of the gift with the customer
A.bcda
B.abcd
C.cadb
D.cabd
（4）Which of the following words can best describe the store owner?
A.Creative
B.Humorous
C.Confident
D.Honest

I am an active girl, and I speak and laugh loudly in the classroom, like a boy. I don’t care about small matters. On the contrary, my neighbor, the girl who sits next to me, speaks quietly and dare not do the things I often do. I can understand this.

【题目】根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
Seventy years ago, a group of well-known people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music, dance and theater in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
It quickly attracted famous names such as Alec Guinness, Richard Burton, Dame Margot Fonteyn and Marlene Dietrich as well as the big symphony orchestras (交响乐团). It became a fixed event every August and now attracts 400,000 people yearly.
At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival. Eight theater groups turned up uninvited in 1947, in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform, and they did so in a public house disused for years.
Soon, groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theater by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.
Today the “Fringe”, once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theater, music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yet as early as 1959, with only 19 theater groups performing, some said it was getting too big.
A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1.25 million tickets were sold.
（1）What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at the beginning?
A.To introduce young theater groups.
B.To honor heroes of World WarⅡ.
C.To attract great artists from Europe.
D.To bring Europe together again.
（2）Why did some uninvited theater groups come to Edinburgh in 1947?
A.They owned a public house there.
B.They wanted to take part in the festival.
C.They thought they were also famous.
D.They came to take up a challenge.
（3）Who joined the "Fringe" after it appeared?
A.Popular writers
B.Artists from around the world.
C.University students.
D.Performers of music and dance.
（4）We may learn from the text that Edinburgh Festival______.
A.keeps growing rapidly
B.has gone beyond an art festival
C.gives shows all year round
D.has become a non-official event

When I spent the summer with my grandmother, she always set me down to the general store with a list. Behind the counter was a lady like no one I'd ever seen.
“Excuse me,” I said. She looked up and said, “I'm Miss Bee.”
“I need to get these.” I said, holding up my list. “So? Go get them. ” Miss Bee pointed to a sign. “There's no one here except you and me and I'm not your servant, so get yourself a basket from that pile.”
I visited Miss Bee twice a week that summer. Sometimes she shortchanged me. Other times she overcharged. Going to the store was like going into battle. All summer long she found ways to trick me. No sooner had I learned how to pronounce “bicarbonate of soda” and memorized its location on the shelves than she made me hunt for it all over again. But by summer's end the shopping trip that had once taken me an hour was done in 15 minutes. The morning I was to return home, I stopped in to get some run.
“All right, little girl,” she said. “What did you learn this summer?” “That you're a meanie!” I replied. Miss Bee just laughed and said, “I know what you think of me. Well, I don't care! My job is to teach every child I meet life lessons. When you get older you'll be glad!” Glad I met Miss Bee? Ha! The idea was absurd.
Until one day my daughter came to me with homework troubles. “It's too hard,” she said. “Could you finish my math problems for me?”
“If I do it for you, how will you ever learn to do it yourself?” I said. Suddenly, I was back at that general store where I had learned the hard way to add up my bill by myself. Had I ever been overcharged since?

B.She neither shortchanged the author nor overcharged her.
C.Teaching kids lessons was Miss Bee's job at that time.
D.Miss Bee used to learn to pronounce the names of some goods in the store.
