1.选B 上下文串联。根据下文可知是一件奇怪的事情发生了。A幸福的;B奇怪的;C常见的;D糟糕的,坏的。故选B。

2.选D 动介词搭配。根据空前的happen判断,某人发生了什么事应该说:sth happened to sb,故选D。

3.选D 状语从句。前面有such,空后表示是主句的结果,such…that…如此……以致于……。故选D。

4.选A 名词辨析。本句话意为“我的小汽车停下了”。根据前文的drove判断,drive one’s car开小汽车。故选A。

5.选B 上下文串联。由下文“far from a town”可知选lonely。A狭窄的;B荒凉的;C拥挤的;D繁忙的。故选B。

6.选C 定语从句。someone后是定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词是表示人的不定代词,故用who引导。

7.选A 上下文串联。A,才,未来得及,在……之前;B在……之后;C在……期间;D正如,由于。句意:我走了几公里才最后发现一栋房子。故选A。

8.选D 上下文串联。根据上下文应该是“马路附近”。A、B、C都不符合题意,故选D。

10.选D 动词辨析和上下文串联。A问;B看;C叫,打电话;D等待。根据空后的for a long time判断选D。

11.选C 上下文串联。A汽油;B咖啡;C茶;D午饭。根据下文的tea判断选C。

12.选B 动词辨析和上下文串联。A考虑;B理解;C接受;D认为。根据上文作者是来讨汽油的,所以没有理解来太太说的话。故选B。

13.选C 上下文串联。这位太太为Alfred准备的茶,因为她知道Alfred过去喜欢茶。老太太已经把作者误认为成了Alfred。故选C。

14.选B 动词辨析和上下文串联。A回答;B解释;C拒绝;D答应,许诺。这时的作者已经知道老太太认错人了,所以解释,其他三项不合题意。故选B。

15.选A 名词辨析和上下文串联。根据前文应该是作者解释自己的汽车没有液化汽了,前文已经出现gas,由此判断选A。

16.选A 非谓语动词。keep doing sth不断地做某事。老太太不听作者的解释,仍然在不停地叫作者Alfred。也可根据下文的talking判断。故选A。

17.选C 状语从句。A直到……才;B在……之前;C自从;D当……时候。此处是“自从她上次见到我是多长时间了。”故选C。

18.选A 情态动词辨析和上下文串联。as fast as one could尽可能快地,语境是过去时,故用could。作者趁老太太取茶时尽可能快地逃脱了。故选A。

One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap(包装).

On September 11th, 1958, Mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying. "I promised you a gift, and here it is." What an honor! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it stories. I told it over and over how much I loved it!

One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days, I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as "hopeless", "pitiful", and "dying", which sounded ominous.

Christmas was coming. "Don’t expect any presents this year." Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. "If your baby brother lives, that'll be Christmas enough." As he spoke, his eyes were filled with tears. I'd never seen him cry before.

The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say. "What? He's all right?" He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home!"

"Thank God.'" I heard Mum cry.

From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!

Downing the last drop of an expensive famous brand H2O as well as remembering to throw the empty bottle in the recycling bin, makes you feel pretty good about yourself, right? It shouldn’t. Even when the bottles are recycled, there are all kinds of other consequences of swallowing bottled water, says Melissa Peffers, the air-quality program manager for Environmental Defense.

The containers are often filled in faraway lands, then shipped from abroad, and stored in refrigerators at your local store. Compare that with the influence on environment of turning on your tap, filling a glass, and drinking up!

Anyone who is choosing bottled water for health reasons is misguided, says Peffers, “Most bottled water is just tap water.” And what comes out of your tap is carefully monitored to follow the strict rules. Consider another fact that bottled water is surprisingly expensive, especially when compared with the alternative, which is almost free, and it is astonishing that America’s desire for bottled water seems impossible to satisfy, reaching nearly 30 billion bottles a year.

“My parents’ generation never had bottled water,” says Isabelle Silverman, an Environmental Defense legal adviser. She has made a commitment to going bottle free. “You don’t need to fetch it home from the store, and it’s cheaper,” she adds.

Bottled water’s role as a status symbol needs to change, Peffers points out. So when a waiter at an expensive restaurant offers “And what’s your drink?” that’s no reason to forget your conviction(信念). “Don’t be afraid to say, ‘I’ll have tap.’ Say it loud enough that the other tables nearby can hear you,” Peffers says. “And then spend that money on a dessert.”

1.In the first paragraph, the underlined sentence “It shouldn’t.” suggest that people _______.

A. shouldn’t feel pleased with finishing the water in the bottle.

B. shouldn’t feel good about drinking an expensive brand H2O.

C. shouldn’t be pleased with just recycling empty bottles.

D. shouldn’t be satisfied with drinking only bottled water.

2.According to the author, tap water is _______.

A. as safe as bottled water B. morel likely to be polluted

C. healthier than bottle water D. less convenient than bottled water

3.The underlined part “going bottle free” (in Para. 4) means “_______”.

A. making bottled water free

B. giving up bottled water

C. recycling use water bottles

D. providing free water containers

4.Why does Peffers ask people to say “I’ll have tap.” Loudly?

A. To encourage them to set an example for others to follow.

B. To advise them to save the money for one more dessert.

C. To remind them to be aware of their social status.

D. To persuade them to speak confidently in public.
