You may not even get a 13 to eat it because you are so busy just trying not to lose it. Having the cookie is not 14 life is about.”
My patient 15 and says cancer has changed him. For the first time he is happy.

【解析】(1)如果你有cookie,一切就都很好。things“情况”,常用复数形式; matter“物质”; incident“事件”; affair“事物”。
(2)句意:如果你没有cookie,生活就毫无价值了。本文借助cookie的得失,谈“生活”的意义,这样,happiness, luck和fortune都和文章意思不符。
(3)不幸的是cookie不断地变化。keep changing是“保持变化”之意。A、C两项是“喜爱”之意; D项意为“继续”,均不符合句意。
(4)在其他时候,cookie则是一辆新车。at other times“在其他一些时候”; another一般指三者以上的另一个; the other是两者中的另一个。
(5)diagnosis“诊断”。根据上下文的意思,the diagnosis of cancer意思是“确诊为癌症”;不是“条件”或者“治疗”之意。
(6)当“我”给儿子一个cookie,他就高兴。此处的情景是“给”,不是“给某人看”; help, invite也不符合句意。
(7)如果cookie破碎了,他就不高兴。这里是和上句进行比较。其中break有“破碎”之意; leave“离开”; burn“燃烧”; cut“砍”。
(8)已经花了这么多的时间才明白……。take这里是“花费”时间。It takes sb. some time to do sth.是固定句型,意思是“某人做某事花了多少时间”。cost的主语一般是事物; spend的主语一般是人。
(9)cookie从来没有让我高兴多长时间。根据上下文的意思,这里指cookie并不能满足“我”;所以其他选项表示的肯定意义是错误的。
(10)当你拥有了cookie,它就“开始破碎”。plan, want和mean不符合这里的情景。
(11)你开始担心它会破碎了。worry about意为“为……担心”。
(12)这里指“……或者某个人会拿走”。anyone和everyone表示的意思和这里的语境不符; no one在这里的意思是错误的。
(13)句意:你可能甚至没机会吃。have money是“有钱”; have right“有权”; have interest“有兴趣”。这些意思均和上下文不符。
(14)拥有cookie并不是生活的全部。what life is about是表语从句,意思是“生活的内容”。that和which两项表达的意思不对;why作原因状语。
(15)“我”的病人笑了起来。根据他的心里的变化,这里是“大笑”;另外此处也没有令人“哭”、“喊”等语境。
(16)句意:不管是输还是赢了高尔夫球。“赢”和后面的“输”相对应,平行、对比等句子结构的分析常是做题的重要方法。
(17)此处的情景:是癌症问“我”。结合全文提到的他和疾病的斗争,是癌症改变了他对生活的看法,所以这里应该是cancer问。
(18)该句的意思是“什么真的重要?”或者“生活中到底是什么重要?”这里是“我”的病人对癌症提出的问题给予的回答。
(19)幸福和cookie没有任何关系。have sth. to do with是固定搭配意为“与……有关系”,这里前面有not,是否定句。
(20)这里的意思是“他若有所思地停顿了一下说”。pause意为“停顿”,此处指说话过程中的短暂停顿; stop是“停止”之意;这里也不是“重复”或“等待”的语境。

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、和 D)中,选出最佳选项。
D
To American visitors, Iceland is a very interesting country, partly because it is different in so many ways from he or she is used to seeing at home. There are quite a few things that are not done, or that do not exist on the island—quite a few “No's”.
There is no pollution, for instance, no dogs are permitted in Reykjavik, the capital. There is no television on Thursdays or during the whole month of July, and only three hours of black and white TV the rest of the time. There is no hard liquor(酒) on Wednesdays and no beer at any time. There is no handguns; only one prison of thirty-five rooms in the whole land—an admirable figure, even for a small country of 313,376 people.
There is no army, air force or navy. There is no tipping(给小费) for anything. There are no large stores open on Saturdays or Sundays. Since Iceland is located just under the Arctic Circle, there is no darkness in summer and no daylight in winter. But thanks to Gulf Stream, the climate is rather mild, with temperatures between 34 degrees and 52 degrees in July.
The rules on television liquor and guns are the result of government decisions. But the absence of pollution is because of in great part the fact that Iceland gets its power from the thousands of hot springs(泉水) that come out of the ground. They provide all the energy needed by the country. In fact, Iceland uses only 3 percent of all its available power.
Iceland has been described as a democratic(民主的) independent country where more fish are caught and more books published per person than anywhere else in the world. The Icelanders have always felt a particular love for literature. They wrote their first books in the ninth and tenth centuries AD. These works were poems and tales about the kings, heroes, and heroines of Iceland and Norway. At first, the stories were remembered and passed from generation to generation. They were finally written down between 1140 and 1220. The Icelanders have never stopped writing ever since. “Rather shoeless than bookless,” they proudly say.
(1)American visitors enjoy visiting Iceland probably because ________.
A.no dogs are permitted in the capital

(2)The following statements are true EXCEPT ________.
A.there are no soldiers in Iceland
B.the Icelanders don't drink beer
C.there is no tip of any kind
D.there are no crimes(犯罪) in Iceland
(3)There is no pollution in Iceland mainly because ________.
A.Iceland uses only 3 percent of all its available power
B.the Icelanders use hot water from the ground below as their energy
C.it is located just under the Arctic Circle
D.it is a democratic independent country
(4)“Rather shoeless than bookless” means ________.
A.they prefer not to have shoe or books
B.they would rather have shoes on than write books
C.they prefer travelling to reading
D.they regard books more important than shoes

【题目】Under new rules posted by the Civil Aviation (航空) administration of China on Friday, pilots will have to pass a “level four” test of Mandarin Chinese, China’s official language. Those who speak with an accent that “often impedes” comprehension will not pass. These rules take effect in January 2016.

China’s 56 ethnic groups speak more than 80 languages and dialects. Even native Mandarin speakers can have trouble communicating with each other depending on the strength of their accents, which can be mutually unintelligible (难理解的).

One flight trainer illustrated the scope for linguistic confusion, especially when common English aviation terms are used. Asked if there is a problem on board, a Chinese pilot might answer in the negative with the words mei you, or “there isn’t.” But someone speaking with a heavy Sichuan accent would pronounce mei you as “May day” unconsciously parroting the universally recognized distress call (遇难信号).

Like their international counterparts (对应物), Chinese aviators have developed codes to avoid confusion resulting from homonyms (同音异义字) or near-homonyms. They use the terms yao for one and guai for seven, which are otherwise pronounced yi and qi respectively and easily confused.

The new rule could affect all pilots, who must renew their license every six years, and adds to a growing list of burdens for the profession.

1What does the underlined word “impedes” in Para 1 mean?

A. improves B. helps

C. misleads D. limits

2Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Sichuan dialect has the contrary meaning to Mandarin.

B. Native Mandarin speakers can understand each other well.

C. It isn’t necessary for a pilot to pass the test before January 2016.

D. “May day” is a distress call in our everyday life.

3What is the purpose of the Chinese aviators using the terms yao for one and guai for seven?

A. To avoid misunderstanding.

B. To communicate with their international counterparts.

C. To pass the test.

D. To avoid their accents.

4What is the best title for the passage?

A. Chinese Pilots Told to Get Rid of Regional Accents

B. Chinese Pilots

C. Rich Chinese Languages

D. Hard to Be a Chinese Pilot
