To celebrate the end of our exams, my friends and I went to a fast food restaurant. We  1  hamburgers and Coca Cola at the counter. When our   2  came, I started walking towards an empty table. By bad luck, my purse strap (带子) got   3  on a chair and the tray (托盘) that I was holding slipped   4  my hands and went flying in the air. The tray, and its contents,  5  on a man who was just about to  6  a bite of his sandwich. I stared, greatly  7 , as the drinks soaked (浸湿) his white shirt.
Then I   8   my eyes and prepared myself for his burst of   9 . Instead, he said “It’s OK” to   10  me before he disappeared into the washroom.
Still shaky and unsure  11  to do next, my friends and I went to a table and sat there, trying our best to look   12 . A moment later, the man came out of the washroom and  13  our table. My heart almost stopped  14 . I thought he was going to ask for my father’s   15  and call him.
To my surprise, he merely smiled at us, handed us some cash and said, “  16  yourself new hamburgers.” He then walked  17  without even finishing his food.
He could have made what was already an uncomfortable situation worse,  18  he chose a different way and gave us a reason to believe that there is still  19  in this world. I ‘ll never  20  his action.

试题分析：本文为记叙文。文章记叙了作者和他的朋友为了庆祝考试结束，去一家快餐厅吃饭所发生的事情。当他们点的食物端上来后，他们准备去一空桌子旁坐下，作者在走的时候由于手提袋的带子挂在了椅子上，作者手中的食物泼洒在了旁边一位客人身上，作者内心感到害怕。不过这位客人不但没有要求他道歉也没有向他的父亲打电话，而是从卫生间出来后面带微笑的给作者钱叫作者为自己买一份食物，说完后离开了餐馆。作者从这个事情中了解到了世界上还是有善良的人。
小题1:A根据首句地点环境是restaurant，排除arranged和demanded。此句动作发出者是we，承受者是汉堡包和可乐，故作为顾客只能是点餐了。顾客不是制作汉堡盒可乐的人，故排除made。
小题2:A由首句的铺垫就知道点餐吃饭的话题，根据上一句点餐之后，自然是指我们所点的食物来了，故选A。
小题3:B本句句意为：钱包上的带子被卡在了椅子上，故选B，捉住、卡住、困住。
小题4:C下一句说in the air，说明此时盘子已经脱手了，from my hand表示托盘从我手中飞了出去，故选C。
小题5:B托盘从手中滑落，盘子里的东西洒在了一位客人身上，故用fell，选B。
小题6:A take此处表示吃的意思，客人进餐馆是吃饭的，故选A。
小题7:C作者将食物泼洒在客人身上后感到很是震惊。
小题8:D作者很害怕地闭上了眼睛，用closed。
小题9:C作者闭眼的同时准备接受那位客人的怒火。
小题10:B结合主干Instead, he said “It’s OK”，说明是为了安慰作者，故选B。
小题11:C作者不知道接下来做什么，故用what。
小题12:C我和朋友们尽力镇定下来。
小题13:B那个男的从洗手间出来直接朝我走过来。
小题14:A当那个男人朝我们走来时我的心几乎都停止跳动了，心跳用beat。
小题15:C作者以为那个男的会要求要自己父亲的电话并给父亲打电话，故选C。
小题16:B结果那个男人给他一些钱叫他买一份汉堡。
小题17:D本句句意为：那个男士随后离开了，故选D。
小题18:D前后为转折关系，故选but。
小题19:A对那位善良大度的男士的正确评价，根据故事描述，他是一位和蔼大度的人物，故选A。
小题20:A本句是文章的结尾句一般用于简单概括总结，结合本文是一篇回忆性的文章，故最后表达的是永远不会忘记这位男士的举止行为，故选A。
点评：答题前一定要略读全文，把握文章要表达的主题，注意前后句与句，段落与段落之间的关系。答题中，一定要认真分析，注意选项与上下文的关系，与前后单词的关系。对于一时没有太大的把握的题可以放到最后再来完成，因为有时答案可以从下文内容体现出来。答完后再通读一遍文章，看看所选选项能不能是语句通顺，语意连贯。

If you are living in the city, have you ever thought of going to live in the country for a change? Many people want to move from the country to the city because they think life in the city is more exciting and better than that in rural (农村的) areas, especially young people who like new and modern things.
Often people feel that they can find the latest styles only in the city. Other people are interested in technological (科技的) things and high-tech jobs and think they can find them only in a big city. If they want to find a job, especially a good position in a company, they feel they have to live in a city. To get these jobs, they are willing to put up with many of the disadvantages (不利因素) of city life such as heavy traffic and pollution.
However, it is now possible to enjoy a higher quality of life in the countryside and still enjoy some of the advantages (好处) of living in the city.
Nowadays, travel is fast and information is available (可获得的) on the Internet, so many people are able to do their work in home offices.
Because they have e-mail and personal computers, they don't have to be in big cities to do their business. It is not important where they actually work because the results of their work can be sent everywhere with technology. Now they can enjoy life in the countryside and still be able to do good business and successful careers.
小题1:The underlined phrase “put up with” (in Para. 3) probably means “_____”.
A．changeB．stand
C．be angry withD．be pleased with
小题2:Now people can enjoy life in the countryside and still be able to do good business and successful careers _____.
A．because of the Internet and fast travel
B．because of e-mail and personal computers
C．because travel is fast
D．because the rural areas are developing faster than cities
小题3:What is the author's opinion?
A．She / he prefers to live in the countryside rather than live in the city.
B．She / he prefers to live in the city rather than live in the countryside.
C．She / he likes both city life and countryside life.
D．It is not clear which life she / he prefers.

C．Go and live in the cityD．Go and live in the country
If you've been joining in chat room conversations, or trading e-mail with Web pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a peculiarly short form of English.
And you've got a sense of humor about short forms like SOHF(="sense" of humor failure) to describe Internet newcomers who don't understand you.
Across the globe, every night teenagers and their elders are “talking” online—many of them are talking at the same time.
It's fast: try talking to six people at once. It's brief: three or four words per exchange. It takes wit, concentration, and quick fingers.
And it requires tremendous linguistic economy. There's neither time nor space for explanations. Why consume precious key-strokes telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB(="be" right back) will do? Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI(="pardon" me for jumping in).  Interested in whom you're talking to? Type A/S/L, the nearly universal request to know your pal's age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a response from your pal.
If something makes you laugh, say you're OTF(="on" the floor),or LOL(="laughing" out loud),or combine the two into ROTFL(="rolling" on the floor laughing).
And when it's time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG(="got" to go) or TTYL(talk to you later).
People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing emotion, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift” key and capitals. Punctuation is going, too.?
小题1:In order to talk to several people at the same time on the Internet_______.
A．you have to speak fast and fluently
B．you have to express your ideas in a brief way
C．you should speak with wit and humor
D．one should pay much attention to the accuracy of the words
小题2:If you get 17/F/NY as an answer to your A/S/L, it means_______.
A．the person on the other end is 17 from New York and he is fine
B．you are talking to a girl who is 17 and lives in New York
C．you are talking to 17 girls who are from New York
D．the person who are talking to you is a 1.7-foot tall New York girl
小题3:To save time on the Internet_______.
A．some people leave their letters in the dustbin
B．some people never use “shift” in their writing
C．many people leave the capital and punctuation
D．people seldom use capital letters or punctuation
In my living room, there is a plaque (匾) that advises me to “Bloom (开花) where you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy. I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s, when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville, Kentucky. The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program. Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who “bloomed” in her remote area.
Dorothy taught in a school In Harlan County, Kentucky, Appalachian Mountain area. To get to her school from the town of Harlan, I followed a road winding around the mountain. In the eight-mile journey, I crossed the same railroad track five times, giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times. Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains, I found it depressing. The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.
From the moment of my arrival at the little school, all gloom (忧郁) disappeared. Upon arriving at Dorothy’s classroom. I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen. The children had been prepared to show me their latest projects. Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for “dinner” (lunch). In case you don’t know, poke greens are a weed-type plant that grows wild, especially on poor ground.
Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students. Her enthusiasm never cooled down. When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification, Dorothy was ready. She came to the assessment and passed in all areas. Afterward, she invited me to the one-and-only steak house in the area to celebrate her victory, as if she had received her Ph. D. degree. After the meal, she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand. She said it was a family heirloom (传家宝), but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things. (360 words)
小题1:“Early Childhood Development” in Paragraph 1 refers to __________.
A．a program directed by Dorothy
B．a course given by the author
C．an activity held by the students
D．an organization sponsored by Union college
小题2: In the journey, the author was most disappointed at seeing __________.
A．the long trackB．the poor houses
C．the same trainD．the winding road
小题3:Upon arriving at the classroom, the author was cheered up by __________.
A．a warm welcomeB．the sight of poke greens
C．Dorothy’s latest projectsD．a big dinner made for her

A. She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant.
B. She got a pen as a gift from the author.
C. She passed the required assessment.
D. She received her Ph. D. degree.
小题5:What does the author mainly intend to tell us?
A．Whatever you do, you must do it carefully.
B．Whoever you are, you deserve equal treatment.
C．However poor you are, you have the right to education,
D．Wherever you are, you can accomplish your achievement.
Actually we have known a lot of examples and meaningful words to support the fact that we should try our best to ease the bad impression of others. Just like the old saying goes, we should give a better assumption to the one than we think he was. But many of us always fail to do this.
Take the situation of my class for example. Right at the beginning of the first semester when we were freshmen we all showed great favor to each other. And when there was an activity that needed some people to join, we would be willing to attend whether it was interesting or not. And we were really like brothers and sisters, and our class was just like a family, a warm family. But now, I feel tired of those meaningless activities not only because of the boring activities themselves but also the cool response of our classmates.
I think the reasons why the passion of most classmates is so low may be as follows:
To start with, many of us take part in more than one organization, which will certainly make us tired. Also, in the study fields, many of us may find that our courses are sometimes difficult to understand or comprehend, especially the specialized subjects. Moreover, “history” teaches us that if one does not study hard, it is possible to fail in the exams. So it is a big and good excuse to say that “I do really want to attend, but I have a lot of homework to do, so...”
Last but not least, some people believe that some of our leaders should not be regarded as a leader, maybe I should say we, as leaders, lost the reputation, support and trust of yours. At least I am the warm-hearted one, although I cannot promise you that your advice will be adopted surely, at least I will spare no effort to “give” you the right to be heard, and to serve you.
Be active to show your talents and abilities and to create a better image of our class. Most important of all, work painstakingly for a better condition that we should have reached.
小题1:Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Students’ passion for activities was high at first but disappeared gradually.
B．Students’ passion for activities grew gradually because they were interesting.
C．Students were too busy to take part in activities after their classes.
D．Students were unwilling to participate in activities because of their leaders.
小题2:We can infer from the passage that the writer must be ______.
A．a supporter of activitiesB．a responsible teacher
C．a top student in classD．a devoted class leader
小题3:The writer hopes that all the members of the class will ______.
A．develop better talents and skillsB．improve their abilities and creativity
C．work together to make a better class D．adopt others’ advice patiently
One afternoon, many years ago, I went to pick up my mother from work. I got there a little early so I   1  the car by the roadside and waited for her.
As I looked   2  the car window, there was a small park where I saw a little boy, around two years old,   3  freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short   4 . The boy had a big smile on his face   5  he had just been set free from some sort of   6 . The boy would then fall to the grass,   7 , and without hesitation or without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could again, still with a   8  on his face.   
Kids, when they fall down, don't view their falling down as failure, but   9 , they treat it as a learning experience. They try and try again until they   10 . While I was touched by the boy's persistence, I was   11  touched by the manner in which he ran. With each attempt, he looked so   12  and so natural — no signs of fear, nervousness, or of being discouraged. His only   13  was to run freely and to do it as effectively as he could. He was just being a   14  — just being himself—being completely in the moment. He was not looking for   15  or was not worrying about whether   16  was watching. He didn't seem to be bothered by the fact that maybe someone would see him   17  and that it would be   18  if he did fall. No, all that   19  to him was to accomplish the task, to feel the experience of running fully and freely. I learned a lot from that   20  and experience, and have successfully brought that lesson with me in my many pursuits（追求) in life.

A popular saying goes, “Sticks and stones may break my bones，but words will never hurt me. ”However，that’s not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesn’t matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves--the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.
We all talk to ourselves sometimes. We’re usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. In fact，we really shouldn’t be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.
This “self—talk” helps us motivate ourselves，remember things, solve problems，and calm ourselves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77％of self—talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back . The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying “Good job!”
Often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. Or harsh and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.
Words possess power because of their lasting effect. Many of us regret something we once said．And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it true? Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesn’t pass this test, then it’s better left unsaid.
Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self—esteem and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.
小题1:The main idea of the first paragraph is that         ．
A．not sticks and stones but words will hurt us
B．inspiring words give us confidence
C．negative words may let us down
D．words have a lasting effect on us
小题2:There is no sense for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because       ．
A．almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselves
B．we can benefit from talking to ourselves
C．talking to ourselves always gives us courage
D．it does no harm to have“self—talk”when we are alone
小题3:The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely     ．
A．praise ourselvesB．remind ourselves
C．make ourselves relaxedD．give ourselves amusement
小题4:The author would probably hold the view that        ．
A．encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers
B．negative words may stimulate us to make more progress
C．people tend to remember friendly words
D．it is better to think twice before talking to others

Who says constant texting is just a bad habit? The teenager with the fastest thumbs in the country was crowned on Wednesday at the LG US National Texting Championship in New York City, winning ＄50,000 after a series of fierce texting battles.
16-year-old Austin Wiershke comes from Rhinelander, Wisconsin of the United States. He took home the top prize at the fifth annual texting event, beating 11 other competitors in the final, including last year’s champion Brianna Hendrickson from Brooklyn, New York.
Wiershke, who was wearing a gray shirt and having Justin Bieber’s hairstyle, sailed through each level of the competition by typing passages of text on a QWERTY keyboard rapidly without any mistaken. One special round even included being blindfolded(蒙眼) on the state to make up phrases by memory.
“I’m extremely nervous,” Wiershke said while waiting for the results after the final round. “I’m getting ready to hear Brianna’s name. When I heard my name was announced, I really couldn’t believe my ears.” After the announcement was made, confetti(五彩纸屑) dropped from the ceiling and Wiershke was met on the stage by the singer who said that she liked texting very much. She was Ashley Tisdale, a famous and beautiful singer, who awarded him his check.
In August, a film on Music Television called “Thumbs” took a behind-the –scenes look at the teenager’s life. It shows how he practiced texting to be the fastest. The film followed a series of young texting competitors, including Brianna Hendrickson, in the weeks leading up to this year’s LG US National Texting Championship. Besides showing the always –connected lifestyle of these teenagers nationwide, the mover also shows the studies, sports , dreams and friendships among these competitors.
