本文通过女儿和爸爸分享苹果的细节描写,告诉我们,不要太快对事情做出判断或得出结论,要给更多的时间去更好地理解事情。

1句意:小女儿有点累,所以他们在长凳上休息了一会儿。

walk散步,shower淋浴,break休息,look看;根据句意bit tired,所以要坐下来休息一会。故选C

2句意:他就这样做了,微笑着把他们两个都给了女儿。

both两者都,all所有都,either两者中的任何一个,neither两者都不。根据前文Her father didn’t bring much money with him, but it was enough to buy two apples.爸爸的钱足够买两个苹果的,可知爸爸买了两个苹果,所以是两者都,故选A

3句意:然后父亲问她能否和他分享一个苹果。

take带走,cut切,wash洗,share分享。根据后问女儿把两个苹果各咬了一口,不想和爸爸分享苹果,所以这里爸爸问女儿可否和他分享一个苹果,故选D

4句意:她父亲还没来得及开口,她就咬了第二个苹果。

first第一个,second第二个,third第三个,two两个。根据前文父亲买了两个苹果,所以她又在第二个苹果上咬了一口,故选B

satisfied满意的,excited兴奋的,surprised感到惊讶的,moved感动的。根据上文女儿的表现,可以推测父亲对女儿的表现非常惊讶。故选C

6句意: 也许他只是想得太多了。他女儿太小,不懂得分享和付出。

brave勇敢的,silly傻得,young年轻的。smart聪明的。根据语境,父亲在分析女儿不懂的分享的原因,推测这里表示太而不知道分享,故选C

7句意:他左手拿着苹果的女儿说:爸爸,吃这个!这个汁更多更甜。

saltier更咸的,bitterer更苦的,hotter更热的,sweeter更甜的。这里在形容苹果的味道,所以是更甜的,故选D

8句意:他这么快就对一个小孩做出了判断感到很伤心。

proud骄傲的,great伟大的,bad坏的,happy高兴的。根据后文,自己对女儿快速做出的判断,父亲感到不应该,很惭愧。故选C

9句意:但他的微笑又回来了,他知道为什么他的女儿很快就咬了一口苹果。

went away消失,离开,came back回来,ran out跑出,ran off私奔。根据语境,父亲理解了女儿为什么快速把两个苹果都咬一口,对此爸爸感到很欣慰,所以笑容又回来了,故选B

10句意:总是给更多的时间去更好地理解事情。

always总是,sometimes有时,never从不,seldom很少。根据句意,此句和前文有对比的意思,前文是Don’t….., 所以这里表示我们要总是…., 故选A

【题目】 Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends on ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.

The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future - for example, getting into college or getting a good job - that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasure, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several friends often live happier and healthier lives.

Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.

Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good thingsfor someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.

1Does the writer agree to “Happiness depends on ourselves”?

2What can make you happier, to think too much about the future or to enjoy life’s simple pleasure?

3Why do many people go dancing or play sports?

4What’s the example in helping others to find happiness?

5What’s the passage about?

【题目】 When a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn’t sit quietly. Back in 1983,two scientists,Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin,reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm.What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals which are called VOCs for short.

Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked .It’s a plant’s way of crying out.But is anyone listeningExactly.Because we can watch the neighbours react.

Some plants release smelly chemicals to keep insects away.But others do double duty .They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers.Once they arrive,the tables are turned .The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.

In study after study,it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors .The damage is usually more serious on the first plant,but the neighbors ,relatively speaking ,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.

Does this mean that plants talk to each other Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn’t a true communication.

Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. The world is .

1Does a leafy plant sit quietly when it is under attack?

2What does a plant do when it is under attack?

3How can scientists know that there is someone listening to the crying?

4What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in paragraphs 3?

5From the scientists' studies, can plants protect themselves against insects or really talk to each other?

6What can be filled in the blank at end of the passage?
