题目内容

Last summer, I went back to my hometown, the neighbors and the houses that I used to be familiar with were gone.

A.only finding B.only to find

C.to find D.found

 

B

【解析】

试题分析:句意:去年夏天,我回到我的故乡, 结果却发现我曾经熟悉的那些邻居们和那些房子都没有了。only加动词的不定式表示意想不到的结果,所以用only to find;C.to find是动词不定式,表目的和将来; finding是动词的-ing形式,表示和主语是主动关系,以及顺理成章的结果;D.found是过去分词,表示和主语是被动关系,动作一发生。所以排除其它,选B。

考点: 考查非谓语动词的用法。

More and more people think it necessary to study in an English-speaking country and it didn’t take long at all for me to decide to come and study in UK.

Having been in the school for 2 months, I’m getting used to school life, and I am starting to make the most of my time in here. School starts at 9 o’clock every morning, and every Monday, Wednesday and Friday we have long days, in which we have 9 lessons and school finishes at 4 o’clock. Every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday we have short days, in which we have only 6 lessons and finish at 1 o’clock. After lessons, we have 2 hours of activity time, when you can choose from a wide range of activities, including all the major sports, such as rugby and football, and also the minor sports such as basketball and tennis.

As a boarder(寄宿者), the quality of food is something I consider very important, and Merchiston has not let me down. The school kitchens are run by a professional(专业的) catering(饮食) company, and the quality of food is excellent, and also they take issue(问题) of a healthy diet really seriously: I remember once I was asked to take more salad for my meal by a member of the kitchen staff(工作人员) for I didn’t have enough vegetables. This brings another point of being a boarder: you need to learn how to look after yourself and be responsible(负责) for yourself.

In the Harry Potter films, Hermione Granger is better than her male friends and is considered the brightest pupil in her grade. Isn’t it often the same in schools of our real world? A great many boys fall behind their female classmates.

“It’s surprising but true that most of the top students have been girls since primary school. Girls are class leaders, club presidents and the top ones in exams,” said Wang Feixuan, 15, who studies at a Chengdu school. By any measure, Wang herself is a high-achiever. She is a top student, a team leader in her school’s sports club and a winner in national English and IT competitions.

But why do so many girls outperform their male peers(同辈)?

In Sun Yunxiao’s latest book Save Our Boys, he points out that the education system is “more suited to girls, who are good at memorizing and like to sit quietly and read.” Yet he also says that girls have to do so much more when they compete with males for honors, top universities and later good jobs. They can feel great pressure(压力)nearly every day.

This seems to be the same in most countries in the world. Young women in the United States are also reported to feel the same pressure to be perfect.

“Let’s look at what we ask of our teenage girls,” says an American professor Stephen Hinshaw in an interview.

He thinks that it’s no longer enough that a girl does well in school and is a caring friend. On the TV, on the Internet, and everywhere, girls see images of impossible perfection(完美).

Today’s young women must be good learners, good athletes, and fill their after-school lives with other activities. But they’re also asked to have the styles and looks of popular stars. “Be pretty, sweet and nice. Be athletic, competitive and get straight. Be impossibly perfect.” Stephen Hinshaw sums up.

1.The passage suggests that________.

A. our society asks far too much of teenage girls

B. teenage girls shouldn’t be so perfect at school

C. boys are always lazy ones rather than girls

D. American girls have less pressure than Chinese girls

2.According to the passage, it is true that .

A. boys are less smart than girls throughout school life

B. boys usually don’t have so much pressure as girls do

C. girls are all fond of the Chinese education system

D. girls are better at school because boys don’t work hard

3.The underlined word outperform means_________.

A. mistake B. misunderstand C. ignore D. defeat

4.What’s the best title for the passage_________?

A. Impossibly Perfect Is Possible. B. Why Are Girls So Perfect?

C. Perfect? Pressure Every Day! D. Perfect: Boys or Girls?
