12．---When did you last see your first teacher？
---On ______ Friday last June，at ______ celebration of her 40th year of teaching．（　　）
A．a； theB．a； aC．/； aD．/； the

分析 --你是什么时间最后一次见到你的第一位老师的？
--去年六月的一个星期五，在庆祝她任教四十周年的庆典上．

解答 答案：A
第一空中泛指六月的"某一个星期五"，应用不定冠词a．第二空celebration后面有of her 40th year of teaching作定语，特指，应该用定冠词the，故答案为A．

点评 考查冠词的用法．冠词的用法比较零碎，学生除了应该掌握特指和泛指这些基本概念之外，还要努力掌握一些固定短语，如：as a matter of fact，by the way等．

7．It was a cool October evening．Excitement and family members （36）filled the hall．I was only a 7-year-old girl，but I was the center of （37）attention．Finally，after weeks of preparation，I would （38）show off all my hard work in a dance of performance．Everything would be （39）perfect-so I thought．I waited backstage all （40）dressed up in my black tights with a golden belt．In a loud and clear voice，the master of ceremonies  （41）announced that my class was next．
  My dance class was doing a routine on wooden boxes two feet by two feet，facing the  （42）audience．All I had to do in the next move was put one foot on the box next to mine and keep my other foot on my box．I really was an （43）easy move．I was concentrating so much（44）keeping the huge smile on my face and holding my head up that I did not look  （45）where I was going．I missed my partner's box altogether and （46）slipped．There I was standing on the stage floor when my classmates were on top of their boxes．I could hear giggles（咯咯笑） coming from the audience，and I felt the （47）blood rush to my face．I remembered my dance teacher had told us，"If you make a mistake，keep smiling so the audience will not（48）notice．"I did my best to follow her （49）advice as I continued with the routine．
  When the curtain dropped，so did my （50）hopes for the evening．I （51）sobbed bitterly，tasting the salt from the tears that streamed down my face．I ran backstage，but no one could （52）calm me down．
  Recently I realized I had been a（53）star that night．I was （54）embarrassed，but I fought the urge to run off the stage．（55）Instead，I finished the routine with a smile on my face．Now when friends and family laugh about the time I slipped during a dance performance，I can laugh too．

1．Holidays are really important．Many of us will have childhood memories of summer holidays where we were taken away from home to experience new environments and learn in different ways．
But holidays are expensive and，for those on low wages or living on benefits，they are often unobtainable．Even the cheapest holidays require travel and other additional costs that are difficult for many families to meet．
For working parents，the long summer break can be a very difficult problem for childcare．When an annual leave allowance amounts to only five weeks，there is a need to spread this across the year．Couples can find themselves taking leave in turn in order to care for children who are on holiday．For some，this makes even an affordable family holiday difficult．
The schools that I visit in Nottingham are full of experienced staff committed to giving our children a caring and inspiring learning environment．The number of children receiving free school meals is quite large in Nottingham and many schools have breakfast clubs to make sure that children get a healthy start to the day．Most schools undertake programs of group or individual educational support．Schools also have an important role in safeguarding children's welfare through the ongoing touch and support with their pupils．During the long summer holidays，much of this is missed．
While teachers are holidaying in the UK，many of their pupils spend the whole six weeks on the street where they live．The lack of free school meals for six weeks can result in pressure on a family budget and an inability to afford the inspiring experiences that help children to continue their learning．
In setting out its plans for a five-term year，Nottingham City Council （委员会）is seeking to reduce the summer holiday down to four and a half weeks，with a．more balanced five terms of roughly eight weeks，each followed by a two-week break．We believe this will give real"down time"for school staff and pupils alike but will be short enough not to cause a real break in learning．
We acknowledge that this change may be difficult for some school staff，particularly whose own children are educated in other authorities．However，this must be weighed against the benefits for city children for whom we all have the greatest duty of care．

71．The passage is probably written byD．
A．an experienced teacher
B．a working parent
C．an inspired student
D．a city council member
72．The underlined word"they"in the second paragraph refers to"B"．
A．environments     B．holidays    C．wages     D．benefits
73．It is suggested in the passage that the summer break be reduced toB．
A.2weeks     B.4.5weeks      C.5weeks      D.6weeks
74．The plans for a shorter summer holiday will help studentsC．
A．obtain the cheapest holidays without additional costs
B．get a chance to spend，six weeks a term with teachers in school
C．benefit more from the caring and inspiring learning environment
D．have more school days to receive free school meals
75．It can be inferred from the passage thatD．
A．working parents can enjoy a five-week break to care for their children
B．the suggested plans for a five-term school year can hardly be carried out
C．the long summer holiday gives teachers and students real"down time"
D．some school staff will say"No"to the plans for a shorter summer holiday．

9．When I was growing up in America，I was ashamed of my mother's Chinese English．Because of her English，she was often treated unfairly．People in department stores，at banks，and at restaurants did not take her seriously，did not give her good service，pretended not to understand her，or even acted as if they did not hear her．
     My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well．When I was fifteen，she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she．I was foxed to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rode to her．One time I had to call her stockbroker （股票经纪人）．I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing，"This is Mrs．Tan．"
     And my mother was standing beside me，whispering loudly，"Why he don't send me cheek，already two week late．"
     And then，in perfect English I said，"I'm getting rather concerned．You agreed to send the check two weeks ago，but it hasn't arrived．"
     Then she talked more loudly．"What he want？I come to New York tell him front of his boss．"And so I turned to the stockbroker again，"I can't tolerate any more excuse．If I don't receive the cheek immediately，I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week．"
     The next week we ended up in New York．While I was sitting there red-faced，my mother，the real Mrs．Tan，was shouting to his boss in her broken English．
     When I was a teenager，my mother's broken English embarrassed me．But now，I see it differently．To me，my mother's English is perfectly clear，perfectly natural．It is my mother tongue．Her language，as I hear it，is vivid，direct，and full of observation and wisdom．It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things，expressed ideas，and made sense of the world．
