18．Yesterday was my 18th birthday．As Father and Mother thought it was a big occasion for me，they suggested I（58）（should） hold（hold） a birthday party at home to celebrate it．For several days they had been busy （59）（in） preparing（prepare） for this．By 4o'clock I was pleased to see all my friends had come（60）witha lot of beautiful presents．Mother cooked us a big meal．
We  （61）spent（spend） a wonderful night together，eating and talking（62）happily（happy）．The most exciting moment was when Mother put a big birthday cake on the table and all my friends began to sing Happy Birthday．Seeing the 18candles burning，I couldn't keep back my tears．Without my mother and father's love，I would not lead such （63）a happy life now．Before I  blew out all the candles，I made a wish （64）that my parents would be happy forever．After that，everyone enjoyed the sweet birthday cake and shared my happiness．
I am eighteen years old now，（65）whichmeans I've become an adult and have more（66）responsibilities（responsibility）．I'll do （67）my（me） best to return my parents'love and live up to their expectations．

分析 本文作者通过讲述父母为其举办生日派对的经过，从而表达了对父母的感激之情，并决定今后要尽自己最大的努力来回报父母的爱，不辜负他们的期望等．

解答 答案：
58．（should） hold     考查虚拟语气   由于主句"they suggested"中含有谓语动词 suggested"建议"，故此处的宾语从句应使用虚拟语气；故用（should） hold．    
59．（in） preparing   考查固定搭配     be busy （in） doing sth．意为：忙于做某事；故用（in） preparing．  
60．with    考查句意理解以及介词     本句的意思是：四点钟的时候，我很高兴地看到朋友们都带了很多漂亮的礼物；此处意为：带着，带有；故用with．
61．spent    考查时态   根据上文可知，此处指的是昨天发生的事情，应使用一般过去时，故用spent．     
62．happily   考查副词    此处用来修饰现在分词eating and talking；故用happily．
63． a   考查不定冠词   此处用来修饰单数名词life，表示泛指一种幸福的生活；故用a．       
64．that    考查连词that    由于my parents would be happy forever解释的是名词wish的内容，故本句为同位语从句；由于该从句不缺少任何成分，故用连词that．        
65．which     考查关系代词    本句为非限定性的定语从句；关系词在该从句中作主语，指代的是前一句的内容，故用关系代词which．               
66．responsibilities    考查名词   此处在句中作宾语，指的是：更多的责任，由于responsibility是可数名词，故用responsibilities．
67．my  考查句意理解以及人称代词的一致性   try one's best to do sth．意为：尽某人最大的努力做某事；此处的意思是：我会尽我最大的努力来回报父母的爱，不辜负他们的期望；故用my．

点评 本题主要考查了各种语法在短文中的具体运用．做本题时，需要在正确理解短文的前提下，逐句分析句意以及所考查到的语法现象；因此在平时的学习中，应熟练掌握各种语法知识，其中包括词法，句法，各种时态语态以及虚拟语气等．

9．Organic（有机的）foods are foods produced according to strict guidelines set forth by the government．These guidelines state that organic foods must be produced without modern man-made processes and materials，such as man-made pesticides （杀虫剂） and chemical fertilizers．
For most history，almost all food was organic．However，during the 20th century，the principles of the Industrial Revolution were applied to agriculture．This led to the development of many man-made processes and products that were believed to improve farming techniques．In other words，sm all farms grew larger as the ideas that were used by factories and big businesses were put into action to grow more food faster．
Over time，the organic movement started to get back to the old，traditional methods of farming．Those in favor of organic food believe that the man-made chemicals and pesticides used in modern farming can be harmful to your health．They also believe that organic foods are naturally more nutritious．
If you go to the grocery store，you will notice that organic foods may be more expensive than non-organic foods．This is partly because of that fact that the government requires organic food producers to obtain special certification（鉴定） for their products．
Is organic food worth the extra co st？Some people believe it is．Despite the lack of scientific findi ngs to support their claims（说法），many people still prefer organic foods．Some people believe they taste better，while others prefer to eat food that has not been grown，made or processed using man-made chemicals．
If you wonder whether you should choose an organic food instead of a non-organic one，the best thing you can do is try for yourself and see which you prefer．Although organic foods were once only available in health food stores，you can find them t oday at most grocery stores．

13．When I walk through the streets，I pass strange rooms where people are doing strange things．Some are biking madly．Others are holding metal bars to keep them from dropping down．Still others are jumping around while someone is shouting at them．It looks like something out of Dante's Inferno （但丁《神曲》中的《地狱篇》）．But what is the most amazing is that people pay for these sufferings!
The strange rooms are gyms．It is reported that some 41million Americans are gym members.12% of the memberships are born in January，as they are determined to knock off （使减少） the holiday fat．Maybe it is good to exercise in the gym．However，should they know they can keep in good shape，spending little money，would they still agree with its necessity？
At the age of 23，I joined a gym．I lifted weights twice a week in Muscle's Gym．I paid as little as﹩200per year．You can't find such gyms in every city any more．Too often，the gym is fancy （花哨的） with lots of equipment．If you ask how much it costs to join it，the person at the front desk often won't tell you straight．Instead，he'll let you meet with a fitness consultant （健身顾问），who will provide you with a great number of reasons and suggestions，such as losing weight and getting healthier，just in order to put pressure on you to spend much money joining the gym and becoming a member there．
Working out with the help of equipment at home has problems，too．In the early 2000's，I bought a spinning bike at a cost of﹩700for home use．I tried a few times only to find that it brought me a neck problem．
Now I'm back to my old way．I do Yoga（瑜伽）every morning and evening．Total cost：﹩60for an exercise mat （垫子）．I'm enjoying fitness．

A．do strange things
B．suffer from great pains

D．take physical exercise

B．suggest a new way of losing weight
C．provide us with an example of gyms
D．compare it with the gyms of today
28．From the text we can infer thatA．
A．many Americans put on weight after Christmas and New Year's Day
B．the author and his family had spent a lot of money exercising in gyms
C.12% of the American people are members of gyms
D．spinning bikes are good equipment for exercise．
3．Some people will do just about anything to save money．And I am one of them．Take my family's last vacation．It was my six-year-old son's winter break from school，and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip．The flight was overbooked，and Delta，the airline，offered us﹩400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day．I had meetings in New York，So I had to get back．But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay．I took my nine-month-old and took off for home．
The next day，my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight．Yes，I encouraged-okay，ordered-them to wait it out at the airport，to"earn"more Delta Dollars．Our total take：﹩1，600．Not bad，huh？
Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either．But as a big-time bargain hunter，I know the value of a dollar．And these days，a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up．
I've made a living looking for the best deals and exposing （揭露） the worst tricks．I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade．I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade：A Consumer Survival Guide．And I really do what I believe in．
I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money's worth．I'm also tightfisted when it comes to shoes，clothes for my children，and expensive restaurants．But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut．It keeps its shape longer，and it's the first thing people notice．And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture．Quality lasts．

8．Why must we pay taxes？The answers is that the government needs money for many things，for example to pay its soldiers，sailors and airman，to build roads，bridges，offices，schools，etc and to buy goods from abroad；and only the people of the country can supply the money．One of the most important taxes is income-tax which a person pays according to the amount of his income-tax，no matter he is a businessman，a doctor，a lawyer，a shopkeeper，a miner，or anything else．This is called a"direct"tax，because it is paid in money direct to the government．
Another tax is paid on goods such as watches，jewelry，new clothes，tobacco，wine，etc，when they are brought into a country，such tax is paid as part of the price of these goods if they are later sold in shops．We call it"indirect"tax，because it is paid indirectly through the shopkeeper．
People usually complain about having to pay taxes，but they forget that the money is spent on the things that they and their families need．We need policeman to catch thieves，to see that men obey the laws，to direct traffic，etc，and they must be paid what they earn；children need education and there must be schools and teachers；we want our streets to be kept clean，and the wages of men who do this kind of work have to be paid．Above all，the country must always be ready to defend itself against attacking enemies，and we cannot have an army without paying for it．
Taxes，therefore，cannot be avoided．we buy our own food and clothes and pay for our own amusements，but there are several things that the States finds the money for，and that are necessary for us if our society is to continue．So we have to real cause to complain when we are asked to supply money to be spent for the good of ourselves and for our fellow-citizens．
27．Indirect tax meansD．
A．tax that is not paid directly to the government
B．tax that is paid as an extra amount added to the price of certain goods
C．tax that one pays direct to the government
D．Both A and B．

B．Tax is amount of money that you have to pay to the government so that it can pay for public services．

29．People have no real reason to complain about having to pay taxes becauseC．
A．some shopkeepers are very rich
B．they need money to buy goods from abroad．
C．the money is spent on the things that they and their families need
D．their children need education
30．"Taxes cannot be a voided"meansB．
A．you do not have to pay tax on some goods
