About 70 million American are trying to lose weight. That's almost one out of three in United States. Some ate less of certain foods, especial fat and sugar.
Other exercise, take medicine or even have operations. Losing a weight is not easy, and it can also cost lots of money. And why do many people in the US want lose weight? Many people worry for not looking young and pretty. Other people worry about health. Many doctors say putting on too much weight are not healthy. Almost 30 million people weigh at least 20 percent much than their usual weight.

【答案】①American→Americans ; ②in后加the ; ③ate→eat ; ④especial→especially ; ⑤去掉Losing后的a ; ⑥and→but ; ⑦ want后加to ;⑧for→about; ⑨are→is ; ⑩much→more
【解析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了当今的减肥热。
①考查名词。后面的are说明主语是复数形式,American指美国人,是可数名词,所以要变成复数形式。因此American改为Americans。
②考查冠词。专有名词the United States(美国),因此in后加the。
③考查时态。本文的基本时态是一般现在时,因此把ate改为eat。
④考查副词。用副词especially修饰动词在句中作状语,因此especia改为especially。
⑤考查冠词。lose weight,固定短语“减肥”,因此去掉Losing后的a 。
⑥考查连词。上下文之间是转折关系,减肥不容易也花很多钱。但是为什么很多美国人要减肥呢?因此and改为but。
⑦考查不定式。want to do sth.固定短语,“想要做某事”,因此want后加to 。
⑧考查介词。worry about,固定短语“担忧……”。因此for改为about。
⑨考查主谓一致。本句的主语是putting on too much weight,是单个的动名词短语作主语,谓语动词用单数形式。因此are改为is 。
⑩考查副词。根据后面有than,可知用比较级,more than意为“超过……”,指很多美国人都超过了正常的体重。因此much改为more。

【题目】Homework: more or less

In answer to the trend, one after another anti-homework movements are coming. This time critics (批评者) aren’t just complaining that there’s too much of it but they’re also questioning why the homework is so dull.

The argument over what or how much homework should he comes partly from the fact that educators can’t seem to agree on the purpose of homework.

Some teachers think that homework is necessary to strengthen what is learnt in school. And so they ask their students to memorize what was discussed in class through homework.

Some teachers think the point of homework is to cover material that the class didn’t have time to get to, so their homework is to let students learn additional things.

Other teachers like homework simply because they want students to form work habits and still others believe homework is very important because it is the best way for parents to learn what their children do in school.

But many parents seem to have different ideas.

Elisa who has twins at a primary school doesn’t like; the fact that third-grade students in primary schools are asked to write about 25 book summaries a year. “They do the same thing over and over without really getting into alternative ways of thinking about books and thinking about reading and writing.”

Some education reformers such as Howard Gardner, a Harvard University professor, say, “Teachers can ask children to do things which require the use of different kinds of intelligence, for example, preparing for a debate, creating a work of art, designing a program or carrying out different experiments.”

But it is often hard to persuade overworked teachers to give much thought to homework assignments.

Is there much difference between students who do different amounts of homework?

1Which of the following opinions about homework is not mentioned?

A. Students’ attitude. B. Parents’ ideas.

C. Experts’ opinions. D. What teachers think.

2The underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refers to ________.

C. why the homework is so dull D. movement

3Which of the following statements is NOT the teachers' opinion on homework?

A. Homework is necessary to strengthen what is learnt in school.

B. Homework is to cover materials the class didn’t have time to get to.

C. Doing homework is the best way for parents to learn what their children do in school.

D. The children should be asked to do the homework using different kinds of intelligence.

【题目】阅读理解
Many people believe that language belongs to human beings. However, cats have developed a language not for each other, but for the human beings who have them as pets.
When communicating with each other, cats “talk” with a system of signals. Their tails, rather than any kind of “speech”, act as an important way to express themselves. They also touch each other to express s their feelings. With other cats, they will use their voices only to express pain. Unbelievable, all of that changes when a human walks into the room. Cats use many different kinds of vocal (声音的) expressions when they communicate with a person. Since these vocal expressions are not used to communicate with other cats, it seems that cats developed this “language” to communicate with their human owners.
This fact is shown more clearly when watching rooms that have only one cat and those with several cats. An only cat is usually very vocal, since the only creature(动物)around with whom the cat can communicate is its owner. Cats with other cats, though, are much quieter. If they want to have a conversation, they only need go to other cats and communicate in their natural way.
Since cats learned to meow(喵喵叫)for the only purpose of communicating with human owners should take the time to learn what their different meows mean. If an owner knows, to name just a few examples, which meow means the cat is hungry, which means the cat wants to be petted, and which means the cat wants to have a little “conversation”, the relationship between cat and owner will be closer.
(1)If a cat among other cats finds part of its body hurts, it may express its pain with its________.
A.tail
B.eyes
C.voice
D.head
(2)When a human enters a room full of cats, they________.
A.begin to use vocal expressions
B.use their tails to show love
C.stop making any noise an
D.stop communicating with each other
(3)What are cat owners advised to do?
A.Encourage cats to talk with each other.
B.Communicate more with cats.
C.Learn to meow in different ways.
D.Teach cats to understand human language.
(4)What is the text mainly about?
A.Communication among cats
B.pets' different expressions.
C.Advice on keeping pets
D.The language of cats.
