I’m a huge book lover but like sharing my love for books! So I’ve been bought books constantly. Finishing reading one book, I placed it in or around my school so that some of my schoolmate can treat themselves to the book. I especial like placing it on a stone table in the little garden in that students might have time to take a rest. I was delighted an other day when I saw a card left on the table to say thanks. And from the card, I knew my book turned out of to be a birthday gift for a strange girl. It was so lovely find out that my book could bring anyone pleasure!

第三句:placed→place;schoolmate→schoolmates

第四句:especial→especially;that→which

第五句:an→the

第六句:去掉of

第七句;find 前加to;anyone→someone/somebody

【解析】作者是一个大书迷,他也喜欢与人分享对书的热爱,这给他带来很多快乐。

第一处,but→and ,…like sharing my love for books与前半句为并列关系,改为and。

第二处,bought→buying 考查现在完成进行时。现在完成进行时的构成结构为have/has been doing 作者一直在不断买书。

第三处,placed→place 属时态错误,根据上下文语境,此处用一般现在时态。

第四处,schoolmate→schoolmates 名词单复数用错。schoolmate为可数名词,此处应用复数形式。

第五处,especial→especially 考查副词用法。此处应用副词形式修饰动词like。

第六处,that→which 考查“介词+关系代词”引导定语从句。当介词置于关系代词之前时,不能用that引导,要换成which。

第七处,an→the 考查固定短语,属冠词混淆。 the other day 不久前某一天;几天以前,属固定短语。

第八处,去掉of ,考查固定短语。turn out to be… 结果是

第九处,find 前加to 考查不定式短语作主语。此句中,to find out ….为动词不定式作真正主语,it为形式主语。

第十处,anyone→someone/somebody 不定代词用错。someone/somebody 指某人,此处泛指别人,而anyone 任何人,不符合句意。

【题目】 Anecdotal evidence has long held that creativity in artists and writers can be associated with living in foreign parts. Rudyard Kipling, Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway, Paul Gauguin, Samuel Beckett and others spent years living abroad. Now a pair of psychologist has proven that there is indeed a link.

As they report in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, William Maddux of INSEAD, a business school in Fontainebleau, France, and Adam Galinsky, of the Kellogg School of Management in Chicago, presented 155 American business students and 55 foreign ones studying in America with a test used by psychologists as a measure of creativity Given a candle, some matches and a box of drawing pins, the students were asked to attach the candle to a cardboard wall so that no wax would drip on the floor when the candle was lit. (The solution is to use the box as a candleholder and fix it to the wall with the pin.) They found 60% of the students who were either living abroad or had spent some time doing so, solved the problem, whereas only 42% of those who had not lived abroad did so.

A follow-up study with 72 Americans and 36 foreigners explored their creative negotiating skills. Pairs of students were asked to play the role of seller of a petrol station who then needed to get a job and a buyer who would need to hire staff to run the business. The two were likely to reach a deadlock because the buyer had been told he could not afford what the seller was told was his minimum price. Nevertheless, when both negotiators had lived abroad 70 % struck a deal in which the seller was offered a management job at the petrol station in return for a lower asking price. When neither of the negotiators had lived abroad, none was able to reach a deal.

Merely travelling abroad, however, was not enough. You do have to live there. Packing your beach towel and suntan lotion will not, by itself make you Hemingway.

1What is the purpose of mentioning the famous names in the opening paragraph?

A. To show the relationship between creativity and living abroad.

B. To indicate the link between artistic creation and life experience.

C. To emphasize how great these artists are.

D. To impress the importance of creativity.

2What can be inferred from the text?

B. Negotiators who had lived abroad are more flexible in negotiating.

C. American business students are less creative than those oversea students.

D. One's creativity is associated with the length one has spent abroad.

3What does the author mean in the last sentence of paragraph 4?

A. There exist sharp differences between travelling and living abroad.

B. You shouldn't lie on the beach when travelling.

C. Only real experience of living abroad can help drive creativity.

D. Living abroad is more meaningful than just travelling abroad.

4Where is the text most likely from?

【题目】Rescue officials in Poland are working quickly to clear one of the country’s highways. The roadway is covered with a sticky brown material. It is blocking cars from both directions.

What is causing the mess? Milk chocolate. The problems began early Wednesday, after a huge truck carrying many tons of liquid chocolate overturned. Chocolate spilled out. It spread across six driveways of Poland’s A2 highway.

The liquid chocolate solidified(凝固)as it cooled, causing even more difficulties. The accident happened near the western Polish town of Slupca. Bogdan Kowalski is with the fire fighters of Slupca. He told the Associated Press that “the cooling chocolate is worse than snow”.

Videos published on social media showed rescuers and cleaners were trying to move the sticky brown mess with a bulldozer(推土机).

The private Polish broadcaster TVN24 reported that the driver of the truck was taken to a hospital with a broken arm. The accident happened in the morning when there was little traffic. Nobody else was harmed.

The sticky situation became a hot topic on social media. Some people offered to help the clean-up workers by eating the chocolate themselves.

Marlene Kukawa is a media officer for Slupea police. She told the New York Times that rescue workers needed to remove the truck from the highway first. “The cleanup”, she said at the time, “will take a few hours or more.” She added that accidents are rare in this part of the A2 highway. And, she told the New York Times, she is sure the area has never experienced something quite like a huge chocolate spill.

1What caused the traffic trouble?

A. A broken-down car. B. Cars stuck on the highway.

C. Serious traffic accidents. D. The liquid chocolate.

2What made the situation even worse?

A. The difficulty to get rid of the chocolate. B. Fear caused by videos on social media.

C. The chocolate becoming hard. D. Snow falling on the highway.

3Why did some people offer to eat the chocolate?

A. To avoid wasting the chocolate. B. To reduce loss for the driver.

C. To play a joke. D. To solve the problem.

4What did Marlene Kukawa think of the incident?

A. It happened very rarely. B. It was the most serious accident.

C. It was unexpected by other drivers. D. It was lucky that no one was killed.

【题目】 Until the 1990s coffee was rarely served in China except at luxury hotels aimed at foreigners. When Starbucks opened its first outlet there in 1999, it was far from clear that the country’s avid tea-drinkers would take to such a different-and usually more costly- source of caffeine. Starbucks tried to attract customers unused to coffee’s bitter taste by promoting milk and sugar-heavy concoctions(调和) such as Frappuccinos.

But coffee has become fashionable among the middle class in China. Starbucks now has about 3, 800 outlets in China- more than in any other country outside America. Statista, a business-intelligence portal(门户网站), says the roast coffee market in China is growing by more than 10 % a year. Starbucks and its rivals see big opportunities for expanding there.

So too, however, do home-grown competitors. A major new presence is Luckin Coffee, Beijing- based chain. Since its founding less than two years ago, it has opened more than 2,300 outlets. On May 17th Luckin’s initial public offering on the Nasdaq stockmarket raised more than $570m, giving it a value of about $4bn.

Luckin’s remarkable growth is sign of change. No longer do Chinese consumers see coffee as such a luxury. Most of Luckin’s outlets are merely kiosks where busy white-collar workers pick up their drinks, having ordered them online. Super-fast delivery can also be arranged through the company’s app. Independent coffee shops are springing up. The growth is striking given the country’s reputation for its tea-drinking culture where many residents like to relax in teahouses sipping tea served gracefully.

But the two markets are different. The teahouses tend to cater to older people who like to spend long hours playing mahjong and gossiping. At the coffee shops it is rare to see anyone over 40. Young people use them for socialising, but much of their interaction is online -sharing photos of their drinks and of the coffee-making equipment. An option on the Chinese rating app Dianping allows users to search for wanghong ("internet viral") coffee houses: ones with particularly photogenic decor(照片装饰) where better to sip and We Chat?

1How did Starbucks try to appeal to Chinese consumers?

A.By reducing the price slightly.B.By introducing the benefits of coffee.

C.By making coffee taste not so bitter.D.By promoting its products effectively.

2What does Luckin Coffee’s growth suggest?

A.People tend to like coffee’s bitter taste.

B.People’s views on coffee-drinking have changed.

C.People in China can afford coffee now.

D.Tea is no longer part of Chinese culture.

3What does the underlined word “kiosks” in paragraph 4 mean?

A.Places where people can drink beer.

B.Restaurants where food can be taken away.

C.Shops aimed at people who like drinking coffee.

D.Small shops or stores where newspapers and drinks are sold.

4What is the best title for the text?

A.Coffee is taking off in China.

B.Tea-drinking is not popular.

C.Coffee or tea, which do you prefer?

D.Coffee has become people’s favorite in China.
