【答案】

【1】to take

【2】stairs

【3】the

【4】opened

【5】walking

【6】tiring

【7】and

【8】later

【9】During

【10】disappointment

【解析】

试题分析:本文属于记叙文,记叙来了Eddie去看望Betty,结果却受到冷遇。实际上Betty是在敷衍他,已经不想再和他联系了。

【1】to take 考查固定句式。句式be about to do sth when...正要做某事在这时...;其中be about to do sth表示正要做某事,这是将来时的一种形式,when后面的句子表示意料之外的结果。

【2】stairs 考查名词单复数。名词stair楼梯,通常说来楼梯有很多层,所以使用复数形式。

【3】the 考查冠词。在英语中使用定冠词the表示特指,本句中名词two days前面有last修饰,说明该词表示特指,所以使用the表示特指过去的这两天时间。

【4】opened 考查时态。全篇课文都使用了一般过去时,说明本文叙述的是过去发生的事情,所以本句也使用过去式opened。

【5】walking 考查非谓语动词。本句中动词walk与句子主语she构成主动关系,所以使用现在分词在句中作伴随状语,表示walk的动作和谓语动词say的动作同时发生。

【6】tiring 考查形容词辨析。现在分词tiring转换的形容词意为“令人疲惫的”,通常修饰事物;而过去分词tired转换而来的形容词意为“感到疲惫的”,通常用来形容人。本句中tiring修饰day。

【7】and 考查连词。句意:她说过了令人疲惫的一天,她很饿,要吃点东西并睡一觉。上下文之间为并列关系 ,所以使用表示并列关系的连词and。

【8】later 考查副词。本句中later作为副词修饰动词短语call him。句意:她补充说明晚些时候她会打电话给他。

【9】During 考查介词辨析。介词during在...期间;该词表示在某一段时间范围里。句意:在Eddie来访的五分钟里,Betty一直避开他的眼睛。

【10】disappointment 考查固定搭配。短语to one's disappointment让某人失望的是;类似的结构中都使用名词,如to one's joy让某人开心的是;to one's surprise让某人惊讶的是。

【题目】When I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car. Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation. I suggested that they should stay at “bed and breakfast” houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.

“We didn’t stay at bed and breakfast houses,” they said, “because we found that most families were on holiday.” I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought “VACANCIES” meant “holidays”, because the Spanish word for “holidays” is said “vacaciones”. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said “VACANCIES”, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to houses where the sign said “NO VACANCIES”, because they thought this meant people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels.

We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word “DIVERSION” means “fun”. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word “DIVERSION” on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hole.

English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris when someone offered me some more coffee, I said “Thank you” in French, I meant that I would like some more, however to my surprise the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that “Thank you” in French means “No, Thank you”.

【题目】One afternoon last week, I saw three tearful children from my son’s school being comforted by teachers. That morning, my 11-year-old had stomach pains, retching(干呕)into a bowl. Talking to other mothers later, I heard about other children with stomachache or difficulty sleeping the night before.

What caused so much pain? Sports day. Sports day might be necessary at a highly-competitive independent school, but not at a village primary school. For the children who can fly like the wind, sports day causes no problem. For those who are overweight or just not good at sport, it is a nightmare(噩梦). Even for those who enjoy running but fall halfway down the track in front of the entire school and their parents, it can prove a disaster.

Why do we put our children through this annual suffering? Some may say competition is character building; or it’s taking part, not winning, that’s important; or that it is a tradition of school life. I just felt great pity for those children in tears or in pain.

Team games at the end of sports day produced some close races, wild enthusiasm, lots of shouting—and were fun to watch. More importantly, the children who were not so fast or quick at passing the ball were hidden a little from everyone’s eyes. Some of them also had the thrill of being on the winning side.

I wish that sports day could be abandoned and replaced with some other less-competitive event. Perhaps an afternoon of team games, with a few races for those who want them, would be less stressful for the children and a lot more fun to watch.

【1】What can we learn about the author’s son from Paragraph 1?

A. He talked with some mothers.

B. He comforted his classmates.

C. He had difficulty in sleeping.

D. He suffered from stomachache.

【2】Sports day is still an annual event in this school probably because .

A. this is an independent school

B. it is a tradition of the school

C. it helps children lose weight

D. children enjoy watching sports

【3】What does the author think about team games?

A. They should include more stressful races.

B. They are acceptable to different children.

C. They should be abandoned at primary schools.

D. They are less fun for those who love running.

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards sports day?

A. Critical. B. Neutral. C. Positive. D. Ambiguous.

【题目】“Old wives’ tales” are beliefs passed down from one generation to another. For example,most of us remember our parents’ telling us to eat more of certain foods or not to do certain things. Is there any truth in these teachings? Some of them agree with present medical thinking,but others have not passed the test of time.

Did your mother ever tell you to eat your carrots because they are good for your eyes? Scientists now report that eating carrots can help prevent a serious eye disease called macular degeneration. Eating just one carrot a day can reduce the possibility of getting this disease by 40%. Garlic is good for you,too. It can kill the type of virus that causes colds.

Unfortunately, not all of Mom’s advice passed the test of medical studies. For example, generations of children have been told not to go swimming within an hour after eating. But research suggests that there is no danger in doing so. Do sweets cause tooth problems?Well, yes and no. Sticky sweets made with grains(谷物) tend to cause more problems than sweets made with simple sugars.

Even though science can tell us that some of our traditional beliefs don’t hold_water,_there is still a lot of truth in the old wives’ tales. After all, much of this knowledge has been accumulated (积累) from thousands of years of experience in family health care. We should respect this body of knowledge even as we search for clear scientific support to prove it true or false.

1Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

A. Sticky sweets are damaging to our teeth.

B. Eating garlic is good for our eyes.

C. Dissatisfied.

D. Curious.
