【解析】

从选项中选出划线单词的同义词或英文解释。

1

考查固定短语。句意:除了一笔数额可观的钱以外,钱包里还有她的电话和一个重要官员的电话。分析句子可知,划线词结合后句的also表达的就是“除了……还有……”,D选项的besides也可以表示这一含义。故选D项。

2

考查形容词。句意:下周六我们会卖掉上周买来的宝物,赚一笔可观的利润。这里tidy修饰的词是profit“利润、利益”,显然不是其熟义“整洁的”,而是修饰其大小程度,既然是卖掉treasures“宝藏、宝物”得到的,利润应该相当可观,D选项considerable意为“相当大的,可观的”。故选D项。

3

考查名词。句意:他通过每天朝着目标前进一点,坚忍了数周抵制住了放弃的诱惑。分析句子可知,persist through意为“坚持通过”,也就是在与某种东西做抗争,且其目的是使人quit“退出、放弃”,联系语境指的应该是奋斗路上有很多诱惑会让人半途而废,A选项enticements意为“诱惑,怂恿”,符合句意。故选A项。

4

考查名词。句意:她的童年经历充满了逆境和不顺——小时候她被幼儿园拒收,就连大人都用难听的名字称呼她。从划线词后面解释说明的句子来看,她的童年是充满挫折和不顺的,所以划线词所指的也应该是这种意思,与B选项含义相同。故选B项。

5

考查动词。句意:在离开这一区域之前,所有的火焰都要被彻底扑灭。分析句子可知,主语是fires,根据副词thoroughly并且联系安全常识应该理解为要将火彻底扑灭、熄灭,put out就表示“熄灭,扑灭”。故选C项。

【题目】阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

The family had just moved to Rhode Island, and the young woman was feeling a little sad on that Sunday in May. After all, it was Mother's Day—and 800 miles separated her from her parents in Ohio.

She had called her mother that morning to wish her a happy Mother's Day, and her mother had mentioned how colorful the yard was now that spring had arrived. As they talked, the younger woman could almost smell the tantalizing aroma of purple lilacs (紫丁香) hanging on the big bush outside her parents' back door.

Later, when she mentioned to her husband how she missed those lilacs, he popped up from his chair. “I know where we can find you all you want,” he said. “Get the kids and come on.” So off they went, driving on the country roads of northern Rhode Island. Eventually, he stopped the car.

“Come with me,” he said. “Over that hill is an old cellar hole, and there are lilacs all around it. Go pick a few.”

There, on the top of the hill, were the towering lilacs bushes. While the man examined the cellar hole and tried to explain to the children what the house must have looked like, the woman had been cheered up, drifting among the lilacs. Carefully, she picked some out. She was in no hurry, admiring each blossom as a rare and delicate treasure.

Finally, though, they returned to their car for the trip home. When they were almost home, she suddenly shouted to her husband: “Stop the car. Stop right here!”

In a second, the woman was out of the car and hurrying up a nearby grassy slope with the lilacs still in her arms. At the top of the hill was a nursing home and, because it was such a beautiful spring day, the patients were outdoors, walking with relatives or sitting on the porch (走廊).

【题目】One day, a college student was taking a walk with a professor. As they went along, they saw lying in the path a pair of old shoes. They supposed the shoes belonged to a poor man who was employed in a field close by, and who had nearly finished his day’s word.

The student turned to the professor, saying, “ Let us play the man a trick: we will hide his shoes, and hide ourselves behind those bushes, and wait to see his confusion when he cannot find them”.

“My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never amuse ourselves at the expense of the poor. But you are rich, and may give yourself a much greater pleasure by tricking on the poor man. Put a coin into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how the discovery affects him.”

The student did so, and they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes. After he slipped his foot into one of his shoes, he felt something hard. He bent down to feel w hat it was, and found the coin. Astonishment and wonder were seen on his face.

He fixed his eyes on the coin, turned it round, and looked at it again and again. He then looked around him on all sides, but no person was to be seen. He now put the money into his pocket, and continued to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was doubled on finding the other coin. His feelings overcame him. He fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven and cried a sincere thanksgiving, in which he spoke of his wife, sick and helpless, and his children without bread, Whom the timely help, from some unknown hand, would save from dying.

The student stood there, deeply affected, and his eyes filled with tears.“Now,”said the professor,“are you not much better pleased than if you had played your intended trick?” The youth replied,“You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget.

【题目】Tips for Cycle Trips

Cycling has many advantages as a form of travel, as it is the fastest way to travel by human power, and slow enough to allow the type of local involvement that is impossible with powered travel. Cycle travel is a cheap form of transportation.

Distance

On level terrain(地形), without a headwind, a cyclist of average fitness on a touring bike can comfortably cover 60-120km a day. Distances of up to 250km a day are possible, but anything much beyond 120km will require considerable physical tension and not allow many stops to enjoy the places you visit. For many, 80-100km a day will be the most suitable distance to aim for, as it will give a sense of achievement and also leave plenty of time for meals and activities.

Geography

The gradient(坡度)of the trip will reduce your range. A basic rule is that for every 100 metres of altitude you climb, you should add an extra 15 minutes to your journey time. In hilly or mountainous areas, the easiest routes for cycling are downstream along major rivers, as overall they will be downhill. A long, roundabout route along a river will usually be easier than a short, direct route over a hill or mountain pass. However, it is worth bearing in mind that the most scenic routes often come from hilly terrain.

Eat

Food choice depends largely on where you are, so see the respective sections for more information about foods. As you will be working hard, it’s important to get enough energy in your food. On long trips away from major towns, there may be little quality food available, so be prepared to live on candy bars, prepared meat products and the like if the need arises.

Sleep

While you can take a tent with you, many hotels and especially campsites can accommodate cyclists. However, there are also some hotels that may be less used to accommodating cyclists. If you are exploring an unfamiliar place, asking about the accommodation spares you the search for a new place to stay after a long exhausting day of travel.

1Which of the following distance does the author suggest to ordinary cyclists a day?

A.90km.B.50km.

C.130km.D.250km.

2What can we learn from the passage?

A.Cycling over a mountain is challenging but worthy.

B.Hotels seldom provide accommodation for cyclists.

C.High quality food is easy to get on long trips.

D.It takes cyclists 15 minutes to climb 10m of altitude.

3Where can we probably read this passage?

A.In a geography book.B.In a research report.

C.In a travel magazine.D.In a science fiction.

【题目】 Laughter fills the room as Claire Conza distributes balls of wool to a bunch of women gathered in a Birkenhead cafe on a Wednesday morning.

Conza, 34, is the founder of Make Give Live, a social enterprise that’s brought together about 40 women in five groups to knit(编织)hats. Her “makers” meet each week or fortnight. “We swap finished hats for new wool and patterns to keep them busy until the next catch up,” she says.

Since starting up last year, Make Give Live has sold more than 400 woollen hats on a “buy one—give one” model, so another 250 hats have been given to the homeless or elderly people through partnerships with Lifewise and Age Concern, with more donations to come.

But for Conza, the movement is about more than making hats—she sees Make Give Live as a way to connect communities, share good times and improve well-being. “There’s a magical interaction between the generations within our groups. Our older members are enriched by using their knitting skills to teach younger people. Our younger members have new methods to share and get to create something for their community.”

Makers are also enjoying the health benefits of knitting, which Conza says offers many of the same benefits as meditation(冥想). “The rhythmic movements and sense of focus can help keep from symptoms of anxiety, pressure, and stress.”

“I found so many benefits in the mindful process of knitting and the joy of creating something useful and beautiful, at a time when I wasn’t able to do much else. I decided if it worked for me, others would also benefit, and Make Give Live was born,” she says.

“A social enterprise is a hybrid of a charity and a business,” says Conza. “It’s about having the head of a business, the heart of a charity and the hands of the community. The key to its existence is recognizing people for their efforts so they are able to stay involved.

1Which of the following best explains how the “buy one—give one” model works?

A.A new hat will be made when one is sold.

B.A buyer buys one hat and gets one free.

C.One hat is bought to give it to a person in need.

D.For each hat sold one is given to a person in need.

2Why does Conza consider Make Give Live more than making hats?

A.It provides warm hats for people of all ages.

B.It helps to develop the members' knitting skills.

C.It creates a good relationship in the community.

D.It introduces new methods for creating better hats.

3According to the text, what effect does knitting have on people?

A.It makes them relaxed.B.It makes them hopeful.

C.It makes them energetic.D.It makes them courageous.

4What does the underlined word “hybrid” in the last paragraph probably mean?

A.Branch.B.Standard.

C.Mixture.D.Boundary.
