解析【文章大意】本文主要叙述一位小姑娘梦想成真,感知幸福的故事。小姑娘梦想住在一处好房子里,人们都在寻梦,其实幸福就在自己的不远处,甚至就在自己的眼底下,而自己却浑然不知。
【小题1】would表示“过去常常”。
【小题2】句意:尽管她爱父母和家人,但她渴望住在那样的房子里并整天都在做梦住在那里一定会感觉多么美好和兴奋。根据前后句关系判断。Unless除非;although尽管,虽然;since既然,自从;but但是。
【小题3】根据37的句意进行判断,此处是“梦想”。dream about梦想;be worried about担忧;ask about询问;shout大喊,不与abut连用。
【小题4】about后是宾语从句,从句中缺少形式主语,只有it可作形式主语。
【小题5】different不同的;scientific科学的;musical音乐的;basic基本的。basic skill and sensibility基本的技能和识别力。
【小题6】beg乞求;blam责备;invite邀请;pay支付,付钱。根据句意应是“乞求母亲进行一次骑自行车兜风”。
【小题7】因为garden不是自己的,故只能在花园外进行兜风。inside在……的里面;outside在……的外面;through通过;along沿着。
【小题8】句意:她妈妈最后允许她去,坚持要求要不要远离房子,不要走太远。insist on坚持要求;rely on依赖;argue about争论;wonder about困惑不解。因为小女孩的年龄尚小,母亲肯定会要求孩子不要远离家。
【小题9】根据a bike ride判断答案。

【小题11】over在……的正上方,超越;down沿着,向下;around在……周围,围绕;beside在……的旁边。
根据空后的valley,判断是“沿着小山向下”。
【小题12】根据下一段的首句中的the gate post判断。
【小题13】句意:当她下自行车,并把车子靠在门框上时,她注意到这条道通向……。As“当……时候”,引导时间状语从句,while“在……期间”,引导时间状语从句时,从句的谓语动词必须是延续性的动词,此处的get off是非延续性动词,故选B。
【小题14】参考48题解释。lead to通向,导致;get to到达;introduce to介绍;move to移向。
【小题15】feel感觉;learn学会,知道;conclude得出结论;find发现。根据空前的disappointed感到失望的进行判断,仅仅是“发现”。
【小题16】transparent 透明;bright明亮的;plain平淡无奇的,朴素的,家常的;wide宽阔的。根据前面的disappointed和后文的dirty判断。
【小题17】根据上段的最后一句话中的dirty和broken以及空后的heartbroken判断。anxious焦急的;angry生气的;serious严肃的,认真的;sad悲伤的。
【小题18】turned around转过身来;cheered up加油;settled down 安顿下来;dropped in顺便拜访。根据后文中的the other side判断是“转过身来”。

【小题20】imagined想象;decided决定;realized意识到;guessed猜测。根据文章最后一句话的结论,应该是“认识到”。

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.
