sit in.It was in a tree, too, that our days of fooling around in the woods came to an end. By then some of us has reached seventh grade and had begun the rough ride of adolescence(青春期). In March, the month when we usually took to the woods again after winter, two friends and I set out to go exploring. We climbed a tree, and all of a sudden it occurred to all three of us at the same time that were really were rather big to be up in a tree.

D 事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由第二段最后兩句在大學(xué)的文學(xué)社,她感到孤獨(dú)……這種與別人不同的認(rèn)知幫助她找到了她的39。獨(dú)創(chuàng)聲音39。即寫作風(fēng)格可推知D項(xiàng)正確。3. C 事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由第三段第一句她所說的直到我認(rèn)識到我真的與眾不同我的寫作才獲得聲音可得知C 項(xiàng)正確。4. A 事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由第四段第二句……h(huán)as been used in classes from high school through graduate school level(這本書從高中到大學(xué)的課上都被使用)可知A項(xiàng)正確。由最后一段可知B 項(xiàng)中的only不正確。C項(xiàng)是邏輯錯(cuò)誤。由最后一段的前兩句可知D 項(xiàng)不正確。 ( B ) 本文主要介紹了慈善商店的基本特色以及慈善商店的創(chuàng)建與發(fā)展。 推理判斷題。由第一段第四句The thing I like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause我最喜歡慈善商店的一點(diǎn)是你的錢用于有用的事業(yè)可推斷出C項(xiàng)為正確答案。goodwill含義為好意 事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由第二段第二、三兩句the famous charity39。s appeal to aid postwar Greece had been so successful…… 可知第一個(gè)慈善商店的建立是為了籌錢援助戰(zhàn)后的希臘。而從文章的第一段可知作者是英國人。因此,D項(xiàng)正確。C項(xiàng)中的patients未提。7. A 事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由第四段第一句The shops have very low running costs可知A項(xiàng)正確。running相當(dāng)于operating含義為運(yùn)營由第三段第一句中volunteer(志愿者)可知B項(xiàng)不正確。由第三段第二句可知慈善商店中90%以上的商品為公眾捐贈,但并不能推出是二手貨,故C項(xiàng)不正確。D項(xiàng)未提8. C 主旨大意題。本文的最后一句為主題句。由a good moral sense (好的道德感)和You provide funds to a good cause(你為一項(xiàng)有意義的事業(yè)提供資金)可知 C項(xiàng)為最好題目。Charity Shop: Where You Buy To Donate. (慈善商店——一個(gè)買東西就相當(dāng)于捐款的地方。) ( C ) 本文為科普類文章,介紹了一位英國生物系學(xué)生對于鯊魚來預(yù)測暴風(fēng)雨的研究。 推理判斷題。本題適宜用排除法。由文章內(nèi)容來看這是一篇科普文,A、D可刪除,由文章的語言來看,并未出現(xiàn)大量的專業(yè)術(shù)語,可刪除C a research paper (科研論文) 推理判斷題。由第一段和第四段可知,前四段所要表達(dá)的含義為If her studies prove the theory,scientists may be able to monitor the behavior of Sharks to predict bad weather.(科學(xué)家們可以通過監(jiān)視鯊魚的行為來預(yù)測不好的天氣.故A 項(xiàng)正確。11. D 事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由文章倒數(shù)第三段可知,Miss Smith 在鯊魚身上安裝高科技感應(yīng)器來記錄pressure(壓力)和temperature(溫度),故選D項(xiàng),C項(xiàng)不全面。12. B 主旨大意題。文章的主旨句為第二段,全文圍繞著鯊魚可能被用來預(yù)測天氣的研究展開。因此,B 項(xiàng)正確。( D ) 本文是一篇說明文,主要介紹了被動獲得知識所存在的一個(gè)嚴(yán)重的問題——被告知的可能是謠言。并用現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中簡單的事例加以說明。 推理判斷題。由文章第二段前兩句we achieve knowledge passively by being told by some else,……in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV of read newspaper or magazines is passive可知被動學(xué)習(xí)是指由別人告知所獲得的知識。故選C. A、B、D 都是主動學(xué)習(xí)。 14. D 推理判斷題。根據(jù)it 所在句可知這個(gè)代詞指代的是前句所提的被動學(xué)習(xí),句意:在日常生活中依靠被動學(xué)習(xí)并不奇怪。通過第四段最后一句可知,原始的含義改變了,例證了第三段提出的論點(diǎn)被動學(xué)習(xí)使我們接受被告知的事物,甚至有時(shí)是謠言。因此A項(xiàng)為正確項(xiàng)。 推理判斷題。此題可用排除法。A、C兩項(xiàng)未提,而由最后一段第一句可知D項(xiàng)不正確。由文章第三段加后幾段的例證可推知B 項(xiàng)正確。 (E) 本文描述了小時(shí)侯玩耍的樹林對與我和朋友們的意義。主要講述了我們在樹林中所從事的活動——探索,以及之后隨著年齡的增長,不再去那里的過程。 事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由文章第一段一、二兩句可得到答案。 。由第二段第三句但是我們的探索與歷史上的相比不夠系統(tǒng),有些東西通常都是在沿途中偶然出現(xiàn)的可知,作者探索是aimlessly(無目的的) 19. B猜測詞義題。由畫線詞的后一句最高的樹枝通常太細(xì)以至于不能承重,所以我們從來不能爬到可以看到除了樹以外的其它事物。因此,爬到樹上找出路是不可信的。20. A推理判斷題。從全文看,作者在樹林里過的很愉快,又由最后一段可知,當(dāng)我們一部分人上了七年級之后。我們在樹林中的玩耍就結(jié)束了。很短暫。因此,正確選項(xiàng)為A.二ATwenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 AM. When I arrived to collect, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute,” answered a weak, elderly voice. After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the car.She kept thanking me for my kindness. “It’s nothing,” I told her. “I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated.”“Oh, you’re such a good man.” She said. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.“Oh, I’m in no hurry,” she said. “I’m on my way to a hospice(臨終醫(yī)院). I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(計(jì)價(jià)器).For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.At dawn, she suddenly said,” I’m tired. Let’s go now.”We drove in silence to the address she had given me.“How much do I owe you?” she asked.“Nothing.” I said.“You have to make a living,” she answered. “Oh, there are other passengers,” I answered.Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto e tightly. Our hug ended with her remark, “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”21. The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to ______.A. show she was familiar with the cityB. see some places for the last timeC. let the driver earn more moneyD.
