8.In my opinion,the rich ______ not always happier than the poor,for money doesn't mean everything.(  )
A.areB.isC.have beenD.has been

分析 以我之见,富人并不总是比穷人更幸福,因为金钱并不意味着一切.

解答 答案:A.
考查主谓一致.题干的主语the rich表示富人,英语中the+形容词:表示一类人,表复数概念,根据主谓一致原则,谓语动词也应该用复数,根据句意,此处叙述的是一个人的想法,没有动作发生的先后早晚,故用一般现在时,所以选A.

点评 本题考查主谓一致的用法.谓语动词的用法是根据主语的单复数而决定的,所以关键在于判断主语的单复数意义,另外一般现在时表示习惯性的动作或存在的状态,现在完成时则表示过去发生的动作或存在的状态对现在造成的影响.

Once there was a great Sufi saint. In his last days, someone asked him about his master. The saint said, “Since you asked, I will certainly tell you about two masters.”

The first master was a thief.

Once I got lost and when I found a way and reached the village it was too late.1. At last I found a man who was trying to make a hole in a wall. I asked him if I could find a place to stay. He replied, “It will be difficult, but you can stay with me if it’s OK with you to stay with a thief.”2..Each night he would say, “I am going to work .You can rest and pray.” When he came back, I would ask him, “3.”H e would reply, “No, not tonight but tomorrow I will try again. God Willing.” He never lost hope and he was always happy. One month later, I left the thief.

When I got hopeless I would remember words of that thief - God willing. Tomorrow It is going to happen.

The second master was a dog.

Once I was going along the side of a river, I saw a dog that was very thirsty. I saw that as the dog looked into river to drink water, he saw his own image and got afraid. 4. But because the dog was too thirsty he would come hack. This happened many times but finally despite his fear, the dog jumped into water.

Seeing this I knew that it was a message from God. 5.

A.Did you get anything today?

B. I stayed with him for a month.

C. Can you tell me where it has gone?

D. With a Master you start learning to learn.

E. Everything was closed and there was no one outside.

F. Seeing his own reflection the dog barked and ran away.

G. It means that one has to go forward despite all of his fears.

20.Cigarette smoking kills.That we know.So,manufactures made electronic cigarettes as a safer smoking choice---safer than tobacco.
E-cigarettes contain the drug nicotine like cigarettes.But they do not use tobacco.And you do not light (33)them.They are powered by battery.
So,if e-cigarettes are so safe,why have poison control centers around the United States seen an increase(34)in telephone calls about e-cigarette poisonings?The answer is children.
Most of the calls are from people worried about children who have played with the devices.In the period of one month this year,the United States Centers for Disease Control say 215people called the Center with e-cigarette concerns.More than half of these calls were for children(35)aged(age) five and younger.The devices apparently had made them sick.
Tim McAfee is director of the CDC's Office on Smoking and Health.He says the problem is regulation,meaning the U.S.Federal government does not control e-cigarettes(36)even if/even though they contain liquid nicotine.
Mr.McAfee adds that liquid nicotine is a well-known danger.
"Nicotine historically has been used as a pesticide in the United States.And that's where we have really had for many,many decades significant poisonings when people got exposed to nicotine that was in liquid solutions."
Mr.McAfee explains that nicotine poisoning happens(37)when the substance gets into the skin,gets into the eyes or is swallowed.Even a small amount,he says,(38)canmake a person sick.Nicotine poisoning can cause stomach pain or a sense of imbalance.Headaches and seizures (突发疾病)are also common sighs of nicotine poisoning.And too much nicotine can kill.
Tim McAfee says e-cigarettes do not create the level of risk to people as tobacco products do.He notes that almost 500,000Americans die each year from cigarettes.
"So,cigarettes are the winner in that contest.And we don't really know what's going to happen with e-cigarettes."
E-cigarettes do not contain hundreds of harmful chemicals(39)that/which are found in real cigarettes.So,the U.S.Surgeon General has suggested that e-cigarettes may be a useful tool for adults(40)trying(try) to end their tobacco use,or quit.
But McAfee worries that teenagers may think electronic cigarettes are harmless.They could become addicted,or hooked,on the nicotine and then start smoking real cigarettes.In other words,he fears that for young people fake (假装)e-cigarettes could be a"gateway"to the real thing.
