7．The first thing ______my brother is going to do this afternoon is to write a letter．（　　）
A．whichB．thatC．whyD．what

分析 下午我哥哥打算做的第一件事就是写信．

解答 答案：B
分析句式可知，______my brother is going to do this afternoon 是一个定语从句，修饰现行词thing，在从句中do缺少宾语，故使用that，先行词为thing等不定代词不能用which．

点评 本题是对限制性定语从句的考查，要认真分析定语从句的所缺成分，搞明白前后两者间的语义关系，结合先行词选出正确的关系词．

11．Carly Lindmeier sits on the patio （露台） of her father's house in Orange County，California．The 20-year-old is finishing up wooden monograms （字母图案） （21）to send （send） to her customers．
At first glance，you wouldn't think that Lindmeier has a life-threatening disease．Like many young people in California，she loves hanging out at the beach and watching TV shows．She attends college and plans to become a speech pathologist （病理学家）．
But after spending some time with Lindmeier，you notice that her voice sounds rough．She was born with cystic fibrosis，a disease that damages the lungs and the digestive system．
"Imagine （22）having （have） to breathe through a straw，"Lindmeier said．"That's （23）what it feels like to have cystic fibrosis．"
While the present might be （24）the most exciting （exciting） time in her life，it could also be frightening．
For cystic fibrosis victims，death in childhood or early adulthood is common，with an average life expectancy of 37．
"When I turned 20，it was kind of tough to realize that I was already middle-aged，"Lindmeier said．"Five years from now，it'll probably be worse．"
 （25）In spite of her illness，Lindmeier stays positive．Looking for a way to raise awareness about this disease，Lindmerier came up with the idea of selling a variety of decorated，wooden monograms，each （26）dedicated （dedicate） to a fallen cystic fibrosis patient．She named it 65Wooden Roses．
ach monogram is hand-made and starts at $24.99 （158 yuan），with 20 percent of income going to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in the US．Launched in July，her business （27）has brought（bring） attention to the disease all over the US already．
Meanwhile，Lindmeier has a positive outlook on her own illness．In July a new treatment，Orkambi，was released，making （28）Itpossible to keep the disease under control．It （29）couldhelp patients to live decades longer．
（30）Although/Though/WhileLindmeier has to pay $6，000 every year for the expensive drug，she plans to start taking it．For her，it's a small price to pay for an improved quality of life and she is determined not to let cystic fibrosis hold her back．
12．A poor farmer had a friend who was famous（61）forthe wonder apples he grew．One day，his mend gave the farmer a young apple tree and told him to take it home and plant it．The farmer was（62）pleased（please） with the gift，but when he got home he did not how where（63）to plant（plant） it．He was afraid that if he planted the tree near me road，strangers would steal the fruit．If he planted the tree in his field，his（64）neighbours（neighbor） would come at night and steal some of the apples．Finally he planted the tree in his wood．（65）whereno one could see it．（66）Becausethere was no sunlight or good soil，the tree soon died．Later me mend asked the farmer why he had planted the tree in such a poor place．"What's the（67）difference（differ）？"the farmer said（68）angrily（anger）．"If I had planted the tree near the road，strangers would have stolen the fruit．If I had planted the tree in my field，my neighbors would have come at night and stolen some of the apples．""Yes，"said the friend，"but at least someone could have enjoyed the fruit．Now you not only（69）have robbed（rob） everyone of the fruit，but also you have destroyed（70）thegood apple tree!"
9．ChopsticksRight now，millions of people are digging into their food with two sticks that have school the test of time as a utensil（烹调用具）for humans．But what's so special about them？（36）CPersonally，I think they teach us the importance of：
（37）A
If you're ever tried using them，you know that you can't get what you want by just randomly stabbing at the plate．To be able to get what you want，you have to aim for it．There's no way you can pick up everything in one go．Know what you want，and just do it．（38）F
Practice
Using chopsticks doesn't come naturally．You can't learn to use them by just reading about them．（39）D It is the same with the real life．You can read as much as you like about all the things you want to do，but it will just amount to dreams and theory if you don't try actually doing it．
Slowing Down
（40）GWhy？Because it allows your stomach to tell your brain you're full before you overeat．Eating with chopsticks is a slower process，but that is not necessarily a bad thing．Sometimes we need to slow down and take things one step at a time，so that we have time to think and realize that we don't have to keep charging full speed through life．

A．Aim
B．Motivation
C．What can we learn from them？
D．You have to practice using them
E．Those who eat too fast were less successful at losing weight
F．Sometimes，a little bit of focus makes the difference between failure and success
G．A common health tip is to try to eat with chopsticks when you can．

19．The role of a newspaper is to present and comment on the news．It is vital for keeping people well-informed on current affairs．In most Western countries，journalists try to shape the ideas and opinions of their readers，since in Western countries all newspapers are independent of the government．Some newspaper owners support liberal ideas including economic policies that help poor people．Other owners want policies such as lower taxes for rich people and less money to be given to poor people．You can almost judge the political ideas of a person in the West by looking at the newspaper he reads．
All newspapers report national and international news．They give the facts but also provide opinions on controversial issues in the editorials and columns of opinion．The readers of the newspaper can also comment on these editorials or articles．There are many informative articles too as well as reviews of new films and books，etc．These are very important，for if a film or book gets good reviews it will often become more successful．
All these articles require many journalists who are experts in different areas of life．All these articles come together and are checked by the chief editor of the newspaper．When he or she has made a decision on the articles，the newspaper is prepared for printing．All this work means that the journalists must work together as a team because there is a lot of pressure when you work in a newspaper office．There are constant deadlines and articles have to be fitted round advertisements，photographs and much，much more．
5．What does the underlined word"be fitted"mean？B
A．be suitable  
B．be put
C．be read      
D．be measured

C．A newspaper can come out with just a journalist working individually．
D．Journalists must submit their articles before the due date．
8．Why are good reviews important to books？D
A．Good reviews are excellent introduction to books．
B．Readers especially favour books with good reviews．
C．Good reviews can make readers feel relaxed and comfotable．

16．At 2 pm on 5 December 1945，five US bombers took off from Fort Lauderlale in the USA for a training flight in perfect weather．Shortly afterwards，the pilots radioed that their flight instruments were all malfunctioning．Two hours after take-off，all contact with the planes was lost．A reconnaissance plane was immediately sent off to search for the missing planes．Within 20 minutes，radio contact with it had also been lost．No trace of any of the planes was ever found．In all，six planes and 27 men had disappeared into the air．
The disappearance of the six planes was far from being the first mysterious incident in the area：for years，navigational problems and strange magnetic forces had been reported．The disappearance was not even the greatest disaster within the triangle．The Cyclops，a 19，000-ton US ship was sailing from Barbados to Norfolk，Virginia in March 1918，when it vanished with its crew of 309 from the surface of the ocean without making a distress call and without the slightest wreckage ev er being found．
The losses of boats and planes in that area defy explanation．The disasters are the origin of a new phrase in the English language-the Bermuda Triangle and this phrase has entered legend．The Bermuda Triangle has been called the Devils'Triangle，the Triangle of Death，the Graveyard of the Atlantic．It has swallowed up 140 ships and planes and more than 1，000 people．Today many airmen and sailors are still afraid of that area of the Atlantic Ocean．
