【解析】

试题分析:短文改错题。

1. learned from a newspaper that some clerks are wanting in your company.句意:我从报纸上得知贵公司想要一些职员。换句话来讲,一些职员被贵公司所需求,所以wanting改为wanted表达被动语态,此时语气更加委婉,故wanting改为wanted。

2. eager to do…渴望做……,故being改为be。

3. from…而不是graduate in…故from改为in。

4. well in =be good at…擅长……。故good 改为well。

5. good at…只有副词才能修饰动词,especial的副词是especially,故especial改为especially。

6.

7.

8. is said that…据说……,是固定用法,故As改为It。

9. very glad if you let me work for it.此句缺少谓语动词,will后面跟动词原形,glad是一个形容词,所以要用be动词充当谓语动词,故加be。

One morning, Ann’s neighbor Tracy found a lost dog wandering around the local elementary school. She asked Ann if she could keep an eye on the dog. Ann said that she could watch it only for the day.

Tracy took photos of the dog and printed off 400 FOUND fliers(传单), and put them in mailboxes. Meanwhile, Ann went to the dollar store and bought some pet supplies, warning her two sons not to fall in love with the dog. At the time, Ann’s son Thomas was 10 years old, and Jack, who was recovering from a heart operation, was 21 years old.

Four days later Ann was still looking after the dog, whom they had started to call Riley. When she arrived home from work, the dog threw itself against the screen door and barked madly at her. As soon as she opened the door, Riley dashed into the boys’ room where Ann found Jack suffering from a heart attack. Riley ran over to Jack, but as soon as Ann bent over to help him the dog went silent.

“If it hadn’t come to get me, the doctor said Jack would have died,” Ann reported to a local newspaper. At this point, no one had called to claim the dog, so Ann decided to keep it.

The next morning Tracy got a call. A man named Peter recognized his lost dog and called the number on the flier. Tracy started crying, and told him, “That dog saved my friend’s son.”

A study of more than five million books, both fiction and non-fiction, has found a marked decline in the use of emotional words over time.The researchers form the University of Bristol used Google Ngram Viewer, a facility for finding the frequency of terms in scanned books, to search for more than 600 particular words identified as representing anger, dislike, fear, joy, sadness and surprise.

They found that almost all of the categories showed a drop in these “mood words” over time.Only in the category of fear was there an increase in usage.

“It is a steady and continuous decrease,” said Dr Alberto Acerbi.He assumed that the result might be explained by a change in the position occupied by literature, in a crowded media landscape.“One thing could be that in parallel to books the 20th century saw the start of other media.Maybe these media — movies, radio, drama, had more emotional content than books.”

Although both joy and sadness followed the general downwards trend, the research, published in the journal PLOS One, found that they also exhibited another interesting behaviour:the ratio (比率) between the two varied greatly, apparently mirroring historical events.

During the Roaring Twenties the joy-to-sadness ratio reached a peak that would not occur again until before the recent financial crash.But the ratio plunged at the height of the Second World War.Nevertheless, the researchers held a reserved opinion about their claim that their result reflected wider social trends.In the paper, they even argue that the reverse could be true.

“It has been suggested, for example, that it was the suppression (压抑) of desire in ordinary Elizabethan English life that increased demand for writing ‘filled with romance and sex’… perhaps,” they conclude, “songs and books may not reflect the real population any more than catwalk models reflect the average body.”

C.Reasons for the use of emotional words decreases in literature.

Most young people enjoy some forms of physical activity. It may be walking, cycling, swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. It may be a game of some forms—football, basketball, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering.

Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks in high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure.

Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as others, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of different kinds which would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.

If we compare mountaineering with other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. We should be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no “matches” between “teams” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork.

The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities.

A mountain climber continues to improve in skills year by year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty. But it is not unusual for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they perhaps climb with more skills and less waste of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.

1.What sports are popular among people in winter in the passage?

A. Soccer and golf. B. Skiing and skating.

C. Cycling and hockey. D. Mountaineering.

2.The underlined word “passion” in Paragraph 2 could best be replaced by _ _____.

A. it has man-made rules

B. it is too dangerous for climbers

C. it is free for climbers to use their own methods

D. it can’t bring people joy or leisure

B. physical quality is more important than mental one for climbers

C. a mountain climber passes his best by the age of thirty

D. it is possible for an old man of fifty or sixty to climb the Alps

5.What is the best title for the passage?

Camilla Broomstick, a missing Camden –area woman, was reported found inside her damaged Chevrolet Malibu Sunday afternoon in a County near Camden New Jersey, at the bottom of an embankment(路堤) off a highway, according to authorities. Her car, turned upside down, was spotted by a passer-by who had stopped to view scenery and noticed something shining and what looked like a body, authorities said. When emergency responders arrived, they found Broomstick alive inside her severely damaged car. The vehicle rested upside down after flying 120 feet off the highway and rolling an additional 200 feet into an aspen woods.

“The crash alone would have killed her,” New Jersey State Trooper Dean Enoch said. “It's surprising that she survived the crash at all, and then to be down there for that amount of days without food or water.”

Earlier Monday, the family released a statement at the hospital thanking emergency responders who rushed Broomstick to the hospital and to the man who found her and notified authorities.

“We sincerely appreciate all the thoughts, prayers and kind gestures from the community during such a hard time for our family,” the statement read. “While we're hopeful of her prognosis(愈后), Camilla was seriously injured and with multiple internal and external injuries. Later this afternoon Camilla will be undergoing surgery here to amputate(截肢) both of her feet. Doctors were not able to save her feet due to the serious injuries. Camilla is in critical but stable condition at this time and has a very long road ahead.”

In the statement, family members mentioned reports that Broomstick wrote a request for help on an umbrella she pushed out the car window. “We cannot comment on that right now because we have not seen the umbrella,” the statement said. Family members also asked that the public respect their privacy.

1.Who found the severely damaged car?

A. The authorities. B. A passer-by.

C. Emergency responders. D. Her families.

2.Where was the damaged car when it was found?

A. 200 feet from the high way. B. 120 feet from the high way.

C. 220 feet from the high way. D. 320 feet from the high way.

3.What can we know from the passage ?

A. Camilla Broomstick was lucky to survive.

B. Camilla Broomstick had a strong will.

C. Camilla Broomstick had a good body.

D. Camilla Broomstick was bad in driving.

4.What is implied in the last two paragraphs?

C. Broomstick’s family are worried about her legs.

D. Broomstick’s family are not willing to be disturbed.

Along with global warming and the Ebola virus,this year, something far less life-and society-threatening also spiraled out of control:email.

It was long ago invented as something to make us more productive.But what productivity expert would ever say that it's a good thing that instead of working,we now“answer email? Or that on some days,I am unwilling to leave my desk to head into a meeting because it means taking my finger off the keyboard and knowing 1 will return to a flood of new messages waiting patiently for my total attention?

Some people struggle for“inbox zero”.But like many people,I now get so much junk mail that if I were to adopt such a goal,I would spend every workday doing nothing but deleting emails.To make sure nothing important gets buried,I have developed an embarrassinglv old system of keeping a pen-and-paper list of emails that need responses on a series of Post-It notes.As far back as 2007,Fred Wilson famously declared “email bankruptcy”.I'm close to doing the Same.

But I may not need to.I predict that 2015 will mark the beginning of the end of emails.Already, some tools have emerged(出现)over the years,like software Freedom which disables access to the Internet for chosen periods of time.Corporations have gradually been adopting stricter email policies:A few years ago,Volkswagen said it would stop sending emails from its servers to company-owned BlackBerrys after the end of its workday.

But this great hope is largely the optimist in me speaking,and I give this prediction small chances compared to some of our others.As Tony Hsieh once told me,the problem with email is that it is a“good—enough”solution.Some technologies stay around just because there isn’t anything better.It’s probably right.But my wish is that 2015 is the year when truly effective email management solutions go from good to great-and that email volume goes from crazy to reasonable.We’ll a11 be better for it.

1.The underlined word “spiraled” in Paragraph l probably means “_____________”.

A.increased rapidly B.moved in circle

C.changed unexpectedly D.appeared suddenly

2.The writer is unwilling to attend a meeting because____________.

A.he has to return with quantities of emails

B.answering emails calls for great attention

C.more emails will flood in waiting for him to check

D.he doesn’t want to take his fingers off the keyboard

3.From Paragraph 3,we may infer that____________.

A.the goal “inbox zero” is hard to obtain

B.the writer is devoted to deleting emails

C.pens and paper are highly favored at work

D.Fred Wilson famously declared “email bankruptcy”

4.The writer may agree that____________.

A.emails will come to an end

B.emails will still hold a place

C.existing email management is perfect

D.emails will never be sent to BlackBerrys
