题目内容

15．It was not long _________he was born _________his mother died．（　　）

A．

before； that

B．

since； when

C．

until； when

D．

after； that

分析在他出生后不久他妈妈就死于疾病．

解答 D 考查强调句．本句中被强调部分是：not long after he was born"在他出生后不久'，句意是：在他出生后不久他妈妈就死于疾病．根据强调句的固定结构是It is/was+被强调部分+that+句子的剩余部分．所以答案选D．

点评强调句是英语中的一个基本句型，也是考试的一个语法内容，在英文中，句子的主语、宾语、状语都可以以一种固定的句式表示对它的强调．It is/was+被强调部分+that+句子的剩余部分，掌握固定结构是做好强调句的关键．

4．The movies just wouldn't be the same without the warm buttery taste of popcorn．Amazingly，this delicious treat started its life as a corn kernel（玉米粒）-and not from just any corn．Popcorn is a type of sweet corn that was originally grown in Mexico and spread to China，India and elsewhere．It is the only kind of corn that will pop．Today，most of the world's popcorn is grown in the United States．
Every popcorn kernel contains a tiny drop of water，surrounded by soft starch（淀粉）．When the popcorn is heated，the water turns into steam．This puts pressure on the surrounding hard kernel，forcing it to explode．The soft starch increases about 40times in size as the corn kernel turns itself inside out．
In the 1500s popcorn was an important food source for the Aztec Indians of central and southern Mexico．But it wasn't only food．It was also used in ceremonies or in headdresses and necklaces．By the time the Europeans arrived in America，popcorn had spread through most of the American Indians．
Some early American settlers ate popcorn with cream and sugar for breakfast．But it wasn't until the late 1800s that popcorn became popular．The demand for popcorn increased and farmers began farming popcorn．The first mobile popping machine was invented in 1885，and popcorn was sold by street sellers much like hot dogs are sold today．
During the Great Depression of the 1930s，the popcorn business still thrived as people could still afford it．Then in the 1950s television arrived and popcorn consumption decreased．People stayed home and stopped going to the theatre．But the link between movies and popcorn had already existed．Soon people began making popcorn at home on the stove．Later，microwave popcorn was introduced．
Today the movies have regained popularity and popcorn has once again become the favorite．

5．One of the most important things in the world is friendship．In order to have friends，you have to be a friend．But how can you be a good friend at school？
Listen-Listen when they are talking．Don't say anything unless they ask you a question．Sometimes it's not necessary for you to have anything to say； they just need someone to talk to about their feelings．
Help them-If your friend is ever in need of something，be there to help them．You should try to put them first，but make sure you don't do everything they want you to do．Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes in case they forget one．Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need．
Be there for them-Try to make something for your friend to help make them feel better in hard times．Making cards and encouraging them are among the nicest things you can do for a friend．Marilyn Monroe，a famous U．S．actor，once said，"I often make mistakes．Sometimes I am out of control．But if you can't stay with me at my worst，you are sure not to deserve （值得） to be with me at my best．"Always remember this!If you don't want to stay with your friends when they're in hard times，then you don't deserve to be with them when they're having a good time!
Try to make plans with your friends．Go shopping，go for ice cream，have a party，go to a movie and so on．Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy．By planning things together，you both can have a good time．And you'll remember these things when you're all old!
