8.The boy ________ himself Mr Football is a freshman of a famous university.(  )
A.calledB.callingC.callsD.to call

分析 那个自称"足球先生"的男孩是一所著名大学的新生.

解答 答案:B
解析:分析句子结构可知,句子的主语是The boy,谓语动词为is,表语为a freshman of a famous university;根据句意可知横线及其后面的 himself Mr Football 作主语的定语.因为"男孩"与"称呼(自己)"之间为主谓关系,故应该使用动词的现在分词形式作后置定语.综上,本题答案为B选项.

点评 本题考查现在分词,做此类题目时一定要清楚各个选项的含义及用法,再分析句子结构并结合句意确定最终的答案.

16.Tips for cooking on a Tight Schedule
From my experience,there are three main reasons why people don't cook more often:ability,money and time.(36)BMoney is a topic I'll save for another day.So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen.Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:
1.Think ahead.The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I'm already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat.So think about of the coming week.When will you have time to cook?Do you have the right materials ready?(37)G2.Make your time worth it.When you do find time to cook a meal,make the most of it and save yourself time later on.Are you making one loaf of bread?(38)CIt takes around the same amount of time to make more of something.So save yourself the effort for a future meal.
3.(39)AThis may surprise you,but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation.It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule.The more you learn and the more you try,the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.
Hopefully that gives you a good start.(40)Fand don't let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!

A.Try new things.
B.Ability is easily improved.
C.Make three or four instead.
D.Understand your food better.
E.Cooking is a burden for many people.
F.Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.
G.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.
3.China's new buzzword,tuhao,may be in nextyear's Oxford English Dictionary.
"If its influence continues,it is very likely to appear on our updated list of words,"said Julie Kleeman,project manager with the editing team.
In Chinese,tu means uncouth and hao means rich.It has traditionally been referred to rich people who throw their weight around in China's rural areas.In recent years,people borrowed the term to describe those who spend money in an irrational(没道理的)manner.The word gained credence in September with the launch of Apple's new gold-colored iPhone,an item loved by China's rich people.The color became known as"tuhao gold."The word is now often used by the online community to refer topeople who have the cash but lack the class to go with it.
Kleeman also mentioned two other Chinese words-dama and hukou-which may also be taken in the dictionary.Hukou means household registration in Chinese and has been widely used.
Dama,meaning middle-aged women,was first used in the Western media by the Wall Street Journal in May when thousands of Chinese women were buying up record number of gold.They were the driving force in the global gold market between April and June when the gold prices had slumped(下跌).
"We have nearly 120 Chinese-linked words now in Oxford English Dictionary,"she said.Some of them are:Guanxi,literally meaning"connection",is the system of social networks and influential relationships which facilitate business and other dealings.Taikonaut is a mix of taikong,meaning outer space,and astronaut.
The new words will be first uploaded on the official website before the dictionaries arrive.The online version is also renewed every three months."It at least broke our old rules.It used to take 10 years to include a new word but now we keep the pace with the era,"according to John Simpson.
29.What does"Tuhao"mean now?D
A.The rich who like iPhone made of gold.
B.The people who have power in the countryside.
C.The people who spend money reasonably.
D.The rich who find no class to belong to.
30.Why is the word"Dama"popular now?A
A.They bought gold in the global market.
B.They are wealthy middle-aged women.
C.They brought the gold prices down.
D.They worked on the Wall Street.
31.Which word has already been in the Oxford English Dictionary?B
A.Tuhao.B.Taikonaut.C.Dama.D.Hukou.
32.According to John,the Oxford English DictionaryC.
A.updates its new version every three months
B.takes 10 years to include a new word now
C.speeds up its acceptance of new words
D.has its online version to collect new words.
13.Improve your memory
Some people often complain about their poor memory.Actually there are several ways to keep your memory sharp.This article will show you some simple tips.
(36)CWhen you say these things,you begin to plant the thought in your mind and it may become true.Tell yourself you can remember anything as long as you put your mind to the task.You will see an improvement in your memory.
(37)AIf you have trouble remembering phone numbers or other blocks of numbers,it can be really helpful to try this method.If you remember them in smaller groups,like two or three digits (数字),it will also be much easier to remember the numbers.
Be sure to see a doctor if you are really losing your memory.A poor memory can be a sign that you are in low spirits.(38)F
Playing games also helps improve your memory.Any type of games that involves(涉及) remembering things is wonderful.(39)DTry and remember it when you have nothing better to do.A useful tip for anyone interested in games is to often work on solving word puzzles and similar types of games.(40)GNot only will your memory probably improve,but you will also have a great deal of fun.

A.Remember numbers in small groups.
B.Take a right attitude.
C.Stop telling yourself you have a weak memory.
D.If you don't like games,you can go over a list of"to do things".
E.If you don't know your condition,you cannot treat it!
F.If so,treating it could be the key to getting your memory back.
G.Such games use the same skills needed to remember facts and help keep the mind sharp.
