3考查连词。句意:里边很拥挤,但是我还是找到了一个座位坐了下来。前后两个句子用连词but(但是)连接,成为并列句。故填but.

4考查冠词。句意:此处的coffee是特指上文提到了a cup of coffee ,所以要用定冠词the,故填the.

5考查形容词。用形容词hungry(饿的)作表语,故填hungry.

8考查形容词。形容词embarrassed(窘迫的)作系动词feel的表语,故填embarrassed.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。 You probably think you know about London’s problems. The people are unfriendly, the prices are expensive, and the food is terrible — so why do so many tourists go there?
London was named the world’s most popular city between July and September 2013. It edged out other world-famous cities, welcoming 4.9 million visitors. Amazingly, this was an increase of almost 19.5 percent on 2012 — the year when the Olympics happened.
So can London’s success be explained? Well, maybe. As the English writer Samuel Johnson once said, “When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life.” London life is crazy and expensive, but if you can think of something, you can probably do it there.
Anywhere in the city, you can often look around a great museum, watch a concert at a historic interest, or dance the night away in a cool nightclub.
And it’s not just about culture — there are also world-famous sporting places. Many tourists like to watch soccer matches at stadiums such as Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge. Tourists even came to watch British tennis player Andy Murray’s famous victory at the Wimbledon tennis tournament (锦标赛) in 2013.
Yes, but what about the food? Well, even if you don’t like British food — and if you’ve never had real fish and chips, then perhaps you should wait until you’ve tried them — there is plenty of great food from all over the world available in London’s many restaurants.
London, like many of its buildings, has a long history, but also never lacks a vibrant pulse. All over the city, history and modernity come together to make it an essential place for tourists to discover.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
The Board Meeting had come to an end. Bob started to stand up and pushed the table, spilling his coffee over his notes. “How embarrassing!I am getting so clumsy in my old age.”
Everyone had a good laugh, and soon we were all telling stories of our most embarrassing moments. It came around to Frank who sat quietly listening to the others.
Frank began,“My Dad was a fisherman. He worked hard and would stay out until he caught enough to feed the family. Not just enough for our family, but also for his Mom and Dad and the other kids that were still at home.”
Frank's voice dropped a bit.“When the weather was bad he would drive me to school. He would pull right up in front, and it seemed like everybody would be standing around and watching. Then he would lean over and give me a big kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy. It was so embarrassing for me. Here I was twelve years old, and my Dad would lean over and kiss me good-bye!”
He paused and then went on,“I remember the day I thought I was too old for a good-bye kiss. When we got to the school, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean toward me, but I put my hand up and said, ‘No, Dad.’ It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way, and he had this surprised look on his face. I said, ‘Dad, I'm too old for a good-bye kiss. I'm too old for any kind of kiss.’ My Dad looked at me for the longest time, and his eyes started to tear. I had never seen him cry. He turned. ‘You're right,’ he said. ‘You are a big boy ... a man. I won't kiss you anymore.’”
For the moment, the tears began to well up in Frank's eyes. “It wasn't long after that when my Dad went to sea and never came back.”
I looked at Frank and saw that tears were running down his cheeks. Frank spoke again.“Guys, you don't know what I would give to have my Dad give me just one more kiss on the cheek.”

【题目】By the mid-nineteenth century, the term “icebox” had entered the American language, but ice was still only beginning to affect the diet of ordinary citizens in the United States. The ice trade grew with the growth of cities. Ice was used in hotels, pubs, and hospitals, and by some forward-looking city dealers in fresh meat, fresh fish, and butler. After the Civil War (1861-1865), as ice was used to refrigerate freight cars(货车), it also came into household use. Even before 1880, half the ice sold in New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, and one-third of that sold in Boston and Chicago, went to families for their own use. This had become possible because a new household convenience, the icebox, a precursor(前身)of the modem refrigerator, had been invented.

Making an efficient icebox was not as easy as we might now suppose. In the early nineteenth century, the knowledge of the physics of heat, which was essential to a science of refrigeration, was undeveloped. The common belief that the best icebox was one that prevented the ice from melting was of course mistaken, for it was the melting of the ice that performed the cooling. Nevertheless, early efforts to economize ice included wrapping the ice in blankets, which kept the ice from doing its job. Not until near the end of the nineteenth century did inventors achieve the delicate balance of insulation(绝缘) and circulation needed for an efficient icebox.

But as early as 1803, an intelligent Maryland farmer, Thomas Moore, had been on the right track. He owned a farm about twenty miles outside the city of Washington, for which the village of Georgetown was the market center. When he used an icebox of his own design to transport his butter to market, he found that customers would pass up the rapidly melting butter of his competitors to pay an extra price for his butter, still fresh and hard in neat, one-pound bricks. One advantage of his icebox, Moore explained, was that fanners would no longer have to travel to market at night in order to keep their produce cool.

1When did the word “icebox” possibly become part of the American language?

A. In 1803. B. During the Civil War.

C. Sometime before 1850. D. Near the end of the 19th century.

2In the early 19th century, what made it difficult to develop an efficient icebox?

A. A lack of networks for the transportation of ice.

B. Lacking the knowledge of the physics of heat.

C. Not knowing how to prevent ice from melting quickly.

D. Competition among the owners of refrigerated freight cars.

3What does the underlined sentence in paragraph3 most probably mean?

A. Moore's farm was not far away from Washington.

B. Moore's farm was on the right of the road.

C. Moore was suitable for the job.

D. Moore's design was fairly successful.

4What's the passage mainly about?

A. The development of refrigeration.

B. The influence of ice on the diet.

C. The transportation of goods to market.

D. Sources of ice in the nineteenth century.
