试题分析:文章大意:当被问到人生中什么最重要时,人们往往会提到友谊。的确,友谊能照亮我们的人生,但是友谊越深厚,就越可能有分歧。本文主要讲述了当友谊出现分歧和裂痕时,如何去挽救处于崩溃边缘的友谊。在本文中作者给出了几条建议,比如把分歧坦白地讲出来,就能够取得彼此的谅解,能挽救这段友谊。

1. friendship友谊; B.love 爱; C.relationship 关系; D.care关心。在下文中多次提到friends,friendship等,而且根据全文内容可知文章的中心内容是谈论友谊,故答案选A。

2. wealth 财富; B.gold 黄金; C.jewellery 珠宝; D.treasure宝藏,珍宝。从情理可知真正的友谊是一种财富,wealth是不可数名词,而gold和jewellery指具体的物品,故答案选D。

3. Personally个人地; B.Naturally 自然地; C.Unfortunately不幸地; D.Luckily幸运地。上文提到友谊是一种财富,而下文表述的内容却是好朋友之间容易产生分歧,所以这是不幸的事情,选C。

4. result 结果; B.pace 步伐,脚步;C.future未来; D.minute分钟。根据句子后部分内容可知这是朋友之间产生分歧后造成的结果,选A。句意:结果可能就是你所不希望的情况---友谊的结束。

5. finished 完成; B.mended 修理; C.changed改变; D.prevented防止。上文提到朋友间产生分歧后容易出现友谊的破裂,而此处的“good news”暗示友谊可以重新获得或者裂痕可以弥补,故答案选B。

6. discussions讨论; B.questions 问题;C.differences 不同,区别; D.interests兴趣,利益。根据上文内容可知友谊的破裂往往是因为朋友间出现的“disagreements.”,所以当所有的分歧被当面提出来后,一切就可以解决了,选C。

7. admit承认; B.punish惩罚; C.flee逃离; D.apologize道歉。根据情理可知做错了事情要道歉,而且下文中的When you apologize,也是提示信息,填D。

8. blamed责备; B.wronged 冤枉; C.punished惩罚; D.praised表扬。根据前句内容和even if“即使,尽管”可以判断作者建议人们做错事情的时候要道歉,即使是被冤枉的时候也要主动道歉,这样有益于友谊的保持,下文中的the wronged person也是提示信息,故答案选B.

9. still仍然; B.even甚至; C.yet 然而;D.ever曾经。从语境判断作者指任何人都会犯错,即使是最优秀的人也一样,此处表示一种让步关系,故答案选B。

10. takes 带走; B.gives 给予;C.gets 得到; D.makes制成。固定短语:take the lead“领头,带头”。选A。句意:有时候,如果被冤枉的人首先道歉的话,可能会有更好的结果。

11. reason 原因;B.cause 缘由,起因;C.chance 机会; D.time时间。从语境判断此处指给对方一个承认错误的机会,短语:a chance to do sth,其他不符合语境。

12. brother’s 兄弟的; B.father’s 父亲的; C.enemy’s敌人的; D.friend’s朋友的。从上文可知文章讲述的是如何修复出现分歧的友谊,所以应该从朋友的角度去看问题,选D。

13. properly 恰当地;B.finally 最终,最后;C.really 真正地; D.merely仅仅,只。根据上文引起几条建议的连接词First,second ,Third,可以判断此处填finally,表示顺序。

14. difficult 困难的; B.hard 艰难的; C.easy 容易的; D.likely可能的。根据后句中The hard part可以判断此处指交朋友容易,但是保持友谊难,选C。

15. keeping 保持;B.letting 出租,让; C.proving证实; D.remaining剩下。从上文讲述的内容可知交朋友容易,但是坚守一份友谊不容易,友谊的维持需要双方的努力,所以填A。

Paper is a cheap and accessible medium that can produce beautiful results. To most people, making a paper plane could be one of the simplest things to do. It’s the simplest and easiest form of paper art. And paper art can be traced back to Japan, where it originated over a thousand years ago. However, there’s a special minority who takes paper art to the next level, magically turning the plain white or colored paper into some of the most amazing artworks. Check out the following artists and their works!

The Danish artist Peter Callesen is famous for his talent in combining the minimalism(极简的) of a white sheet of paper with the complexity of carefully cut and folded paper and uses the two to build out some pleasing works.

The British artist Su Blackwell often goes to secondhand bookstores — to look for materials with which she can carve out delicate sculptures. The models look as if they “grow” naturally from the pages of the books. The artist finds inspiration from the book title or a paragraph or picture inside and then spends months carefully slicing each one into an eye-catching paper model. Her old book sculptures sell for up to£5,000 each.

By carefully folding simple pieces of paper, German artist Simon Schubert creates amazing masterpieces. He turns paper into architectural masterpieces by folding a simple piece of paper to shape the creases(摺缝), then unfolding it to show the fascinating artwork.

Another master of paper-folding is Jen Stark. Her artwork is often in the form of colorful caves and topographic(地形的) maps. Using her vivid imagination and a special knife, she is a modern day magician who turns humble materials like construction paper and glue into fantastic, complicated sculptures that puzzle the eyes. Her work draws inspiration from nature.

1.According to the passage, paper art ________.

A. is about plane-folding B. is most prosperous in Japan

C. dates back to 1000 B.C. D. is now on a new level

D. works also as a magician

4.What does the underlined word “humble” in the last paragraph probably mean?

A. common and popular B. simple and cheap

C. useless and priceless D. numb and meaningless

5.What can we learn from the artists?

B. All that glitters are not gold.

C. One can't make brick without straw.

D. The greatness may come from ordinariness.

 

My life suffered a lot in summer five years ago. My father died in a car accident,leaving my mother,my two younger brothers and I alone. At that time,I was a senior high school student. After my father’s funeral,I had no choice but to drop out of school and work in a factory.

I really wanted to return to school and wanted to go to college,but I couldn’t. I only hoped to bring up my two young brothers. Life was not easy for me,for I can’t afford their tuition even if I worked from day to night without stopping. Without my father’s protection,I thought I was a slave to the fate.

Later on,something changed my life. I still remember that it was a rainy day. I put myself in the rain and walked slowly in the street.

Suddenly the rain stopped!I raised my head and found “the sky” was in fact a dark blue umbrella. Then I noticed a middle?aged man with one leg on crutch(拐杖) standing behind me. He said to me,“Why not run without an umbrella?If you didn’t run,you would get drenched.”

The man told me that he was a promoter. He once dreamed of being a policeman,but an accident ruined his dream. Though his present job was not suitable for his legs,it was a wonderful start to him. He was very happy that he didn’t lose heart and still “ran” on the road of life...

I was encouraged by the man’s words. I went to a big city and became an assurance representative. After two years’ running,I did well and my family condition turned better little by little. Later I returned to school and succeeded in my entrance to university.

Life is like this. When you are in rainy days in your life,if you couldn’t find a way to prevent you from being wet,you would be overwhelmed. But if you decide to get rid of it,you’ll discover that the rainy days last not so long as you imagine.

I wished I had known earlier the fact that I was a low achiever because there was a reason beyond my control. Then I needn’t have worked so hard in my late twenties and early thirties. But I just didn’t know that. I was writing and writing. I was working for no other reason than to hear people praise me.

Most people who go through university read at least twice as fast as I do. I can never tell my left from my right. I avoid dialing a telephone if I can help it, because I sometimes have to try three times before getting the number right. I hear that recording “The number you have reached is not in service” more than any man on earth.

Despite my weaknesses I view my dyslexia(difficulty in reading) as a gift, not a curse(诅咒). Many dyslexics are good at right brain, namely abstract thought, and that is what my king of creative writing is. I’m starting with nothing and coming up with something that didn’t exist before. That’s my strong point. I owe my career to Ralph, Salisbury, my writing instructor at the University of Oregon, who looked past my misspellings and gave me encouragement and hope. I just carried on and never looked back. I’m also very “visual”. This means nothing in school, but when I write books or scripts, I’m seeing everything in my imagination. I write quickly. I go like the wind and can get up to 15 pages a day. Writing is not the problem. I have no problem downloading; it is inputting where things get messed up.

The real fear I have for dyslexics is not that they have to struggle with messy input, but that they will quit on themselves before they finish school. Parents have to create victories whenever they can, whether it is music, sports or the arts. You want your dyslexic child to be able to say, “Yeah, reading is hard. But I have these other things I can do.”

1.According to the passage we know that________.

A. The author had known he was a low achiever since he was a little child

B. The author didn’t work very hard on writing in his late twenties

C. The author owed his dyslexia to his laziness in the childhood

D. The author worked hard for people’s praise

2.From Paragraph 3 we can know that ______

A. The author was grateful to his writing instructor

B. The author often complained about his dyslexia

C. The author had trouble with both inputting and outputting.

D. Having problem in inputting, the author wrote slowly.

3.For dyslexics, the author thinks that_________.

A. they should work as hard as himself

B. they had better choose to drop out of school

C. they should be constantly encouraged

D. they should put their hearts into reading

4.Which of the following proverbs can best summarize the main idea of the passage?

A. He who laughs last laughs best.

B. Where there is a will, there is a way.

C. Reading enriches the mind.

D. When God closes a door, somewhere he opens a window.

5.What kind of man is the writer?

B. diligent and generous

C. clever but selfish

“Have a nice day” may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless expression. When my friend Maxie says “Have a nice day” with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well.

“Have a nice day. Next!” The version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words came out in the same tone ( 腔调 ) with a fixed procedure. They are spoken at me, not to me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone else’s is the management’s attempt to increase business.

The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other. Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the expression saves us when we don’t know what to say. “Oh, you just had a tooth out? I’m terribly sorry, but have a nice day”

The expression can be pleasant. If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you don’t know has tried to be nice to you.

Although the use of the expression is insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting. The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, it’s nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don’t care all that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like.

1.How does the author understand Maxie’s words?

A. Maxie shows her anxiety to the author.

B. Maxie really worries about the author’s security

C. Maxie encourages the author to stay happy.

D. Maxie really wishes the author a good day.

2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. The salesgirl says the words as a routine.

B. The salesgirl is bored.

C. The salesgirl cares about me.

D. The salesgirl is rude.

3.By saying “Have a nice day”, a stranger may _____.

A. give his blessing to you

B. express respect to you

C. try to be polite to you

D. share his pleasure with you

4.According to the last paragraph, people say “Have a nice day”_______.

A. sincerely B as a habit C. as thanks D. encouragingly

5.What is the best title of the passage?

A. Have a Nice Day—a Polite Ending of a Conversation

B. Have a Nice Day—a Pleasant Gesture

C. Have a Nice Day—a Heart-warming Greeting

D. Have a Nice Day—a Social Custom
