【解析】

本文主要介绍了安吉拉·克莱顿是怎样慢慢变成一名服装设计师的。

1句意:14岁时,她开始对制作东西感兴趣。

根据空前空后单词,可知此处是词组at the age of +基数词,表示在多大岁数时,结合所提供单词可知是age。故填age

2句意:14岁时,她开始对制作东西感兴趣。

根据文章第一句“Angela Clayton is a 20-year-old costume designer.”可知她是一名服装设计师,所以此处是制作东西;空前是介词in,后用动名词形式,make的动名词形式是making,故填making

3句意:她爱上了那些漂亮的衣服。

根据句意可知,此处是词组fall in love with sb/sth爱上某人/某事;说的是过去的事情,所以用一般过去时,fall的过去式是fell。故填fell

4句意:然后她试着学缝纫。

根据空前句She __3__ in love with the beautiful dresses in them“她爱上那些漂亮的衣服”,结合所提供单词可知,此处是她“学习”缝纫制作衣服;空前是learn to所以用原形learn。故填learn

5句意:她花了大约两个月才把校服缝好。

根据句意可知,此处是固定句式it takes/took sb some time to do sth某人花费多少时间做某事;讲述是的过去的事情,所以用动词过去式took。故填took

6句意:一天,她穿上她的新校服去上学。

根据前文说到她制作新校服大约花了两个月,可知此处是校服制作完成后,她穿上去学校。结合所提供单词,可知空处是校服uniform。故填uniform

7句意:她花了大约250个小时来制作完成这件新衣服

根据句意和空后单词finishing可知,此处是句式sb spend/spent some time doing sth某人花费多长时间做某事;本句是过去的事情,动词用过去式spent。故填spent

8句意:时间真长啊!

根据前句She __7__ about 250 hours finishing the new dresses.花费了250个小时,结合所提供单词可知,此处是说时间久long。故填long

9句意:但安吉拉并不觉得累。

根据前文说到她花了250个小时来制作新衣服,工作时间很长,可推测她一定很累,结合所提供单词,可知些处是她不“感到”累;空前是didn’t,否定句didn’t后面用动词原形feel。故填feel

10句意:安吉拉·克莱顿有一个伟大的梦想。

根据空后句She dreams of using her own dresses to have a fashion show. “她梦想着用自己的衣服来举办时装秀”。可知此处是说她有一个梦想;空前有表示单数的a big所以用单数dream。故填dream

A rare experience

Imagine the situation. You’re walking down the crowded high street and s1 a complete stranger stops you and says, “Hi! You were on the beach in the south of Spain six years ago. How are you doing?” This stranger isn’t necessarily m 2 . He or she might be a “super - recogniser”. These are people who have the unusual ability to recognise people they have seen only once -- a long time ago, maybe in a crowed.

Whatever the differences in looks

It doesn’t matter what the person looks like now. People change, get different hair styles, dye their hair or go grey. Wrinkles, new glasses and makeups give them new a3 , but the “super - recognisers” can still recognise them.

An inborn skill

Although scientists have known for a long time that about 2% of people suffer from face - blindness, which means that they have huge problems recognising faces, they are only new realising that some people are the exact o 4 .Tests have shown that a “super - recogniser” can identify people that they only saw for a brief moment -- and this is not an ability that we can d5 , it’s something we are born with.

The police are starting to use “super - recognisers” to spot criminal faces in videos of crowds. They look for people with a specific build and facial features like beards and moustaches but they can even recognise quite o7people, with no noticeable features at all. As well as surprising our holidaymaker in Spain six years later, this ability can be used for a very practical purpose indeed.

【题目】One Bite at a Time

One summer day when I was heading for the teaching building, I met Philip, one of my colleagues ( ), who worked in the same office with me. Beside him stood another young man. Philip introduced me to the young man, named Stephen. He told me that Stephen would take one of my classes Introduction to American History. Stephen asked if my class was going to be hard. I felt he was worried about failing before the opening day of classes. We talked about what the class would cover and I saw Stephen’s eyes getting big with fear.

Then I remembered a classical dialogue: Question: “How do you eat an elephant?” Answer: “One bite at a time.”

I told him to deal with his work that way — to do all his assignment (作业) and to hand them in on time. I added that most successful students I knew made a timetable in order to plan their study well.

As time went on, I learned more of Stephen’s story. He had difficulty in study when he was in the middle school. Family members, including his mother, kept telling him that he was a failure. He told me that before coming to our college no one had believed he had much potential (潜力).

Stephen didn’t become an “A” student. Still, he managed to pass most of his courses by being in class every day, turning in all of his assignment on time and breaking down his studying into bite-sized parts. By passing course after course he began to build up bit of self-respect.

Every time I saw him, he would brighten up and say, “One bite at a time.” He told his friends that he was succeeding when he was supposed to be failing. His secret, he said, was that he was practising what I taught him before classes ever started: “Take it one bite at a time.”

1What is the relationship between the writer and Stephen?

A.Father and son.B.Teacher and student.

C.Classmates.D.Colleagues.

2To plan their study well, most successful students .

A.made a timetableB.chose many courses

【题目】 December 12

I’m so thankful we’re all okay. I never imagined I’d have to go through something as terrible as what happened yesterday. At first I thought we were about to have just a usual rainstorm. The sky got dark and the wind picked up. Dad came in early from the fields on his truck. Then my sister Julia said, “Look at the sky. Doesn't it look wired?”

We went to the window and saw big black clouds. I felt afraid as the strong wind blew up. Mom told us to run to the storm cellar, but I wanted to go to my room to get some of my things first. Mom caught me and made me stay with everyone else. As we ran toward the storm cellar, I saw a long, thin cloud drop down from the sky and touch the ground. The noise grew louder, like a train rushing straight at us. My little brother Mark started to cry. I picked him up and carried him down the steps into the cellar.

Above us, we heard terrible sounds that seemed to go on forever. All I could think about was losing my computer and MP3 player. I knew Julia was worried about the clothes she had just bought, and Mark was thinking about his favorite toys.

When it finally grew quiet again, we came upstairs. The whole house was gone. We all had the exact same feeling. Instead of crying about what we had lost, we hugged each other and cried because everyone was safe. We still had what mattered most—our family.

1What is the possible meaning of the underlined word “weird” in Paragraph 1?

A.Colorful.B.Strange.C.Bright.D.Peaceful.

2What is the storm cellar according to the passage?

A.A tool to show how terrible the storm is.B.A museum to introduce what the storm is.

C.A place to keep you safe from the storm.D.A machine to predict when a storm comes.

3Why did the family cry after the storm?

A.Because they were thankful to be safe.B.Because they had to rebuild their house.

C.Because they were still feeling afraid.D.Because they lost many valuable belongings.

4Which is the right order of the following events according to the passage?

a. The whole house was blown away by the heavy storm.

b. A long, thin cloud dropped down and touched the ground.

c. Dad drove his truck back home from the fields early.

【题目】阅读下面短文, 根据其内容完成后面各项任务。

For as long as I can remember, I have loved photos. When I was little, I would spend hours looking at old family photos. In the fourth grade, my parents gave me a camera to take with on our trip to Washington D.C. I took photos of everything that interested me during the trip.

Photography(摄影)is more than a hobby for me - it's my way of life. So why do I take photos?

▲To hold onto memories

Photos capture (捕捉) memories. Time goes by quickly, and it's not always easy to live in the moment. Taking photos makes me hold onto those moments just a bit longer.

▲To tell a story

Photos take us to another place and time. I take the camera with me and record my days. Later I show the photos to my friends and family as I tell them about my days.

▲To see the world differently

I look for the special and beautiful moments every day. Nothing is too boring to be beautiful - sometimes you just have to look for it.

▲ To learn a new skill

Photography is a journey and an art. Although anyone can take photos with their phone, there is a difference between taking photos and learning photography.学习是我生活的一部分

▲To express(表达)myself

A picture is truly worth(值)a thousand words. What I can't explain in words, I can show through photos. Photos make me be able to show others how I see the world.

Long time ago, there lived two brothers. The elder was called Simon and the younger Victor. (46)_________________, and always took care of one another. Every day they worked from morning until night, getting as much grain(谷物) as possible from their fields.

One late autumn evening, after their work in the field was done, Simon said to his wife, “ Victor got married last month.(47) _________________. I think I will put a bag of rice in his barn(谷仓).” “ Oh, that’s a good idea, ” said his wife. “But please don’t tell him, ” said Simon, “If he knows I put the rice there, he will never take it.”

They laughed about what they had done. “ It is good to have a brother like you,” they both said. And they lived happily ever after.
