本篇难度：中等。
[篇章结构]：
| 段落 | 关键词 | 大意推测 |
| 第一部分（para.1） | a little girl, poor house on a hill, a small garden, a wonderful house with shining golden windows, desired to live such a house | 住在山上的小女孩看到对面山上的有金色窗子的美丽的房子。虽然她深爱她的父母和家人，但她是多美渴望能住进这所金色的房子里啊！ |
| 第二部分（para.2-3） | gained some skill and sensibility, allowed her to go, The day was beautiful, across the valley, rode to the golden house, focus on the path, vey disappointed, windows were rather dirty | 女孩渐渐长大了，妈妈答应她在房子周边骑车。她骑上自行车下山直奔对面的金色的房子。但是到了房前，她端详着那条小路和房子的窗户，这才发现窗户是如此地普普通通而又脏兮兮。 |
| 第三部分（para.4） | Heart-broken, amazing, There on the other side of the valley was a little house and its windows were golden. She had been living in the golden house filled with love and care. | 眼前的景色让她失望且伤心。但回头处，却看到了另一番美景：对面的山上，是自己住的金色的房子。原来自己一直置身于自己梦想的金色的房子里，享受这家人的关爱！ |
[解析]：
36．C。 利用语境解题。本题的提示词是usually, 根据语境这里应该表示一个小女孩的个人习惯，句子的意思是：通常她会在那个小花园里玩耍。
37．B。根据句间逻辑关系解题。主句是she desired to live in such a house, 从句是she loved her parents and her family, 主句和从句的关系应该是让步关系，虽然她深爱着自己的父母和家人，但还是渴望住在那栋房子里。所以选择Although。
38．A。利用语境解题。desired to live in such a house和______ all day about how wonderful and exciting…之间是并列关系。解题关键在于desired, 既然渴望，就会有梦想，所以选择dreamed。 dream about doing sth 梦想做…，所以选择dreamed。
39．C。 根据上下文语境解题。本题的解题关键在于介词about 后面的宾语从句how wonderful and exciting _________ must be to live there.这个句子如果用陈述句型表达应该是：_____ must be wonderful and exciting to live there. 经分析可知，本题考查的是it做形式主语，代替后面的不定时to live there。鉴于此，答案为C。
40．D。 根据下文提示解题。下文提到恳求妈妈之后才被允许骑自行车围着花园转一转，说明小女孩刚刚学会些基本的（basic）技能和识别力，所以选择D。
41．A。根据生活常识和上下文提示解题。上一段提到desired, dreamed等动词，说明了小女孩渴望的心情，后面有提到 “Her mother finally allowed her to go”,由此可知小女孩“恳请”妈妈答应自己的请求，所以选择A。
42．B。 根据下文词汇复现解题。下文提到了keeping close to the house（在房子周边，附近），说明这里表达的是在花园周围骑车。所以答案是B。
43．A。根据上下文语境解题。前面提到妈妈答应了小女孩的要求，但是这是有条件的，那就是妈妈坚持(insisting on)要她不要远离自家的房子，不要骑太远。这个答案表明妈妈的态度，所以选择A。
44．C。根据下文词汇复现解题。上文提到begged her mother for a bike ride, 所以这里应该是表明妈妈对她的要求，不要骑(riding)太远，所以答案选择C。
45．C。根据上下文语境解题。小女孩早就梦想着一饱花园的美丽，当得到妈妈允许骑车的时候，她心里“确切”地知道她要去哪里。所以答案选择C。
46．B。根据生活常识和上下文提示解题。文章的开始就提到A little girl lived in a simple and poor house on a hill. 明确告诉我们小女孩住在山上，所以这里是骑车下山，答案是B。
47．D。根据下文词汇复现解题。由下段的开始句she got off her bike and put it against the gate post, 可知小姑娘骑车到金色的房子的门口，所以答案为D。
48．B。根据句间逻辑关系解题。本句的解题关键在于主句中的谓语focused on the path和从句谓语got off the bike之间的逻辑关系。先下车再专心研究/看…，由此可知要选的从属连词为引导时间状语从句的，但是got of f her bike 为瞬间动词，而while引导的时间状语从句的谓语动词应该是延续性的，所以否定C答案，选择B。
49. C。根据固定搭配解题。get to 到达；introduce… to 介绍…给…；lead to 通向； move to 朝…移动。本句要表达的是道路与房子的关系，应该是这条路通向那所房子，所以选择C。
50．D。根据上下文语境解题。上句提到她focused on the path and then on the house itself， 说明她仔细观察了这条道路和那所房子。仔细观察后应该有所发现，这里是指小女孩亲眼见到的一切，所以选择D。
51．C。根据句间逻辑关系解题。前面说到she was very disappointed和下面提到very dirty，这些都是选择本题答案的依据，既然disappointed， 就说明这所房子远没有她当初想象得好，很一般，很普通。所以选择C。
52．D。根据上下文语境解题。上段提到了小女孩disappointed, 本句中又有heart-broken,由此可推断小女孩很伤心和难过(sad),所以选择D。
53．A。根据下文提示解题。下文提到There on the other side of the valley…可知这里指“小女孩转过身，回头看”，所以选择A。
54. D。根据上下文语境解题。下文提到There on the other side of the valley was a little house and its windows were golden. 这是小女孩回头所看到的的景象，所以选择D。
55.C。根据生活常识和上下文提示解题。这里指小女孩通过自己的亲身经历明白了一个道理，原来自己一直住在一座充满了关爱的金色的房子里。也就是她意识到了这一点，所以答案选择C。

Two brightly colored butterflies have just flown by. They seems to be exactly alike, but actually one is a little larger than the other. 1 The smaller one has a wingspread of less than three inches and also a black line on its back wings.
At first sight, it is hard to tell them apart. Would you guess from this that they are different-sized butterflies of the same species? 2 If you said yes to either question, you would be wrong, for these look-alikes belong to quite different families.
The larger insect is the monarch butterfly (黑脉金斑蝶). As a baby insect, the monarch feeds on milkweed, which seems to give the monarch a disagreeable taste and smell. 3 Birds that eat butterflies soon recognize the monarch and quickly learn to leave it alone.
4 Birds would find this insect tasty, but because it looks like the monarch, birds keep away from it. The viceroy’s similarity to the monarch gives it some protection from its enemies and helps it survive.
There are other pairs of look-alike butterflies, bees and moths. In each case, one either has a disagreeable taste or smell, or can give a painful sting (叮咬). The larger is called the model. 5
| A．The smaller insect is the viceroy (副王峡蝶), which feeds on the leaves of trees. |
| B．The larger insect has a wingspread (翼长) of up to four inches. |
| C．The bright coloring of the monarch acts as a warning sign to its enemy. |
| D．Birds protect their babies from eating such dangerous enemies. |
F. Or that they are different species of butterflies but close relatives belonging to the same family?
G. Do you like this kind of special species?

It’s not news that we spend more time than ever texting and online.1 Yes, that’s right: a 2010 study shows that more teens are reading good old-fashioned, ink-on-paper books.
Reading is a good way to discover the next big thing and to learn a little more about yourself while you’re at it.2 Here are some tips.
Start with your interests
Reading on your own isn’t like reading for school. You can pick something that’s all about your interests, whether it’s ancient martial arts, computers, or fashion design.
Reading the blurbs(简介)
The reviews and quotes on the back and inside covers of many books are called “blurbs”. 3if you find a book you really like, take a minute to read the quotes(if there are any) and see which authors praised the book. Often, they’ll have similar styles and you might find you like books by those authors too.
Ask an expert
4 Explain your interests--- rock stars, sports teams, historical events, humors, whatever you’re into—and any writers you like, and your librarian can point you toward books that you’ll love.
Finally, you’ll probably enjoy what you’re reading a lot more if you find a quiet place and make time for the book.5 You can put on some good music(ideally without lyrics), get yourself some tea and a comfy spot, and let yourself be carried away by the book.
You’ll see that time does fly when you are reading something you love!
| A．Join a group with your friends and people you trust. |
| B．But do you know how to pick a book you’ll really like? |
| C．But did you know that we also spend more time reading? |
| D．Your local library can hook you up with a whole lot of great book ideas. |
F. We all multitask, but most reading is best enjoyed when you can concentrate and focus on it.
G. They give you an idea of what the book is about, and can also help you pick future books too.
Over the years, Americans have become used to salt．Most people have no idea how much salt they consume-on average, about 9 to 12 gram per person per day, according to the American Heart Association．That's twice the amount recommended by the government．
A new study last week showed eating even a little less salt could greatly help the heart．The scientists said the results would be thirteen percent fewer heart attacks, eight percent fewer strokes（中风）, four percent fewer deaths and eleven percent fewer new cases of heart disease．
Researchers also found that the benefits would be greatest for African Americans and women．As a group, African Americans tend to have higher blood pressure than the general population, and "many studies suggest that they may be more sensitive to salt," says Dr.Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo, an epidemiologist（流行病学家）at the University of California, San Francisco．Her analysis found that a reduction of 3 gram of salt per day would reduce heart attacks 8% on average; among African Americans, that rate would drop 10%．A similar result was found in women, whose stroke risk dropped 8% with a 3-g reduction in salt intake; in men, the risk fell 5%．
They and public health professionals in the United States are interested in a national campaign to persuade people to eat less salt．
However, other scientists say such a campaign is an experiment with the health of millions of people．
Michael Alderman, a high blood pressure expert and professor at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, says that eating less salt results in lower blood pressure．But he says studies have not clearly shown that lowering salt means fewer heart attacks or strokes．
“Salt has other biological effects． Calling for reductions in the national diet could have good effects, as well as harmful results． There is not enough evidence either way,”said Michael Alderman．
【小题1】Eating too much salt may lead to the following EXCEPT ．
| A．stroke | B．heart disease | C．high blood pressure | D．lung cancer |
| A．Most Americans take more salt than advised． |
| B．African women eat more salt than Americans． |
| C．One's origin determines how much salt he can eat． |
| D．Good health is just on the basis of having less salt． |
| A．cold | B．objective | C．subjective | D．doubtful |
| A．The Benefits of Eating Less Salt． |
| B．A New Study on Salt and Diseases． |
| C．An Argument Over Salt and Health． |
| D．The Harm Caused by Too Much Salt． |
