16.I'm a 15-year-old girl.I look normal:I'm not tall or short,and I'm not ugly or beautiful.But there's one problem:I have a big behind.
When I shop for dresses,I can never find one big enough for me.Most shops only have small sizes.So it's really hard for me to find the perfect dress.When I see thin girls in their small dresses,sometimes I can't help being sad.
For most girls,getting a dress is easy.They can always find one that fits.
But not for me.It takes me weeks or seven months to find a dress that covers my behind and doesn't make my arms look so fat.A lot of the time,I have to give up my favorite color.Once,I was in a dressing room.The girl in the room beside me was talking to her friend.She said she had been on a diet all years,but her behind was still too big.Poor girl!She was so thin,she looked like she hadn't eaten in months!After I saw her,I decided I don't want to go on that kind of diet.
But each time I am out with my mum,I only think about two things:finding a dress,and eating something good for lunch.Maybe I should try to eat a little less.
Or maybe girls shouldn't worry about being thin all the time.We should try to eat a little less.
Or maybe girls shouldn't worry about being thin all the time.We should just try to be happy with ourselves.
I went to 324dress shops last year when I was looking for a dress.This year,I'm not going to worry about it too much,the world is full of small behinds,and I'm proud to have a big one.
43.What is troubling the girl in this passage?C
A.Her small size.
B.Her ugly face.
C.Her big behind.
D.Her troublesome arms.
44.After meeting the other girl,she decidedA.
A.not to change herself
B.to ear less and exercise more
C.to go on the same diet
D.to try to be as thin as her
45.At the end of the passage,the writer seems toD.
A.have cut down her food
B.be still troubled with her dresses
C.be tired of her mum
D.have got over her worries
46.What do you think the word"behind"means in this passage?B
A.Something girls wear
B.Part of the body
C.A school thing
D.One's height.

分析 全文大意:
我是個15歲的女孩.我看起來很普通:不高也不矮,不難看也不漂亮.但是,有一個問題:我虎背熊腰.當我要買一條連衣裙時,卻找不到一條足夠大的.因為很多商店只有小號的,所以我很難找到一條合適的連衣裙.有時候,當我看見那些苗條的女孩穿著小號的連衣裙時,我就情不自禁的難過.對于大多數(shù)女孩,買一條連衣裙很容易.因為她們總能夠找到一條合適的,而我卻不能.我需要花費好幾個星期,甚至是好幾個月才能買到一條蓋住我屁股的連衣裙,而使我看起來不那么虎背熊腰的.很多時候,我不得不放棄我喜歡的顏色.有一次,我在一家連衣裙商店里,旁邊的女孩正和他的朋友說話.她說,她一年里一直在節(jié)食,但是屁股還是很大.可憐的女孩!她已經(jīng)很瘦了,看起來就像是幾個月沒吃過飯了!看見過她之后,我決定我不要繼續(xù)那種節(jié)食了.但是,每一次我和媽媽出去,我只會想兩件事:買一條連衣裙,吃頓美味的午餐.或許,我應(yīng)該少吃一點了.或許女孩們不要一直為了減肥而發(fā)愁,我們應(yīng)該盡量少吃一點.或許女孩們不要一直為了減肥而發(fā)愁.我們應(yīng)該盡量使自己開心快樂.去年,我為了買一條合適的連衣裙,走了324家商店.今年,我不會為這件事過多的發(fā)愁.因為,這個世界上有很多瘦小的人,而我為我的強壯而感到自豪.

解答 答案:
43、C     細節(jié)理解題       根據(jù)第一段I'm a 15-year-old girl.I look normal:I'm not tall or short,and I'm not ugly or beautifulBut there's one problem:I have a big behind."是個15歲的女孩.我看起來很普通:不高也不矮,不難看也不漂亮.但是,有一個問題:我有個大屁股"可知困擾女孩的是她的大屁股,故選C
44、A     細節(jié)理解題        根據(jù)第四段 After I saw her,I decided I don't want to go on that kind of diet"看見過她之后,我決定我不要繼續(xù)那種節(jié)食了."可知女孩決定不再改變自己了.故選A
45、D      細節(jié)理解題       根據(jù)最后一句This year,I'm not going to worry about it too much,the world is full of small behinds,and I'm proud to have a big one."今年,我不會為這件事過多的發(fā)愁.因為,這個世界上有很多小屁股女孩,而我為我的大屁股感到自豪."可知在短文最后,作者似乎克服了她的憂慮,故選D
46、B       詞義猜測題        根據(jù)第四段It takes me weeks or even months to find a dress that covers my behind"我需要花費好幾個星期,甚至是好幾個月才能買到一條蓋住我behind的連衣裙"可推知被連衣裙遮住的是身體的部位,故behind是指身體部位,故選B

點評 本題出現(xiàn)較多的細節(jié)理解題,都可以在文中找到答案.只要仔細閱讀文章,找到文章中相關(guān)的語句即可輕松解答此類題目.詞義猜測題要結(jié)合上下文去理解推測.

4.Most young boys don't like growing flowers and watering them.But for 16-year-old Angus,working in the garden isn't just a hobby-it has changed his life.
Angus has a special illness and his IQ is lower than a normal boy.Six months ago,he started learning how to grow flowers.Now,he spends hours in the garden growing flowers,watering and looking after them.
"Before working in the garden,it was difficult for Angus to concentrate in class and sometimes he didn't want to go to school,"says his mother Kim."Now he can't wait to go to school and he is happy every day.We can see Angus is able to work in a garden center in the future."

The lives of hundreds of children in Britain with special needs,like Angus,have been changed by working in the garden.When working in the garden,children have an opportunity to learn a lot of important skills,such as how to work with other people and how to take care of plants.Besides,the children become more confident after working in the garden.

4."Can I have a glass of hot water?"(61)D But if you go abroad,you may find that
meals in the West tend to come with tall glasses of ice water.Are you curious about this difference?
For most Chinese people,drinking hot water is part of everyday life.
(62)B One idea suggests that water of a warm temperature (25-30℃)is good for people's health,especially for the stomach.It also helps to stop digestion (消化) problems.,
(63)A One possible reason is that in western countries people can drink water directly from the tap (水龍頭),rather than having to boil it.And it's not only drinking water that they have cold.After exercise,it's normal to jump into a cold shower,to bring the heart rate down.
However,there is one common'thing encouraged by both the East and the West:
(64)CAs sweating (出汗) is a good way to cool off in summer,hot drink makes you hotter and you begin to sweat.
(65)EThe more comfortable our body feels,the better it is.

根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容,從下面五個選項中選出能填入文中空缺處的最佳選項,使短文意思通順,內(nèi)容完整,并將其標號填涂在答題卡相應(yīng)位置.
A.But for many Western people,they drink cold water even in winter.
B.More importantly,it is strongly connected with traditional Chinese medicine.
C.One can cool down by drinking a hot drink in summer.
D.This is a very common question for Chinese customers in a restaurant.
E.Of course,it doesn't matter if you drink hot or cold water.

11.Listening to songs is a great way to learn English.Here are a few reasons.
(61)EAnd when you are enjoying yourself,you learn without even realizing it.The best thing is that there are so many good songs in English and there are so many kinds of music,including pop,country,R&B,rock,soul and so on.Let David Bowie,Madonna,The Beatles,Alicia Keys…be your teachers!
(62)AJust take your MP3player with your favorite tracks(樂曲) and press"play"And you can listen to them whenever and wherever you want,so you can learn English while you're walking,driving,doing sports or relaxing on the sofa.
(63)DWhile you're listening to songs,you are raising your awareness(意識) of language structures(語言結(jié)構(gòu)).And you're seeing how the structures are formed and used.
(64)CAnd after singing along to the songs several times,all those phrases and expressions will become firm in fixed in your long-term memory.Then later you'll find that you use them naturally when you're speaking or writing.
(65)BFor example,the song American Pie is about the 1959plane crash that killed Buddy Holly,Ritchie Valens and The Big Bapper,which was an important event in US history.
So,load up your MP3player,put on your headphones and press"play"!
根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容,從下面五個選項中選出能填入文中空缺處的最佳選項,使短文意思通順、內(nèi)容完整,并將其標號填寫在下面題號后的橫線上.
A.Learning English by listening to music is easy,too.
B.Songs can also teach you about history,culture and traditions.
C.Songs are full of useful language that you can use when you're speaking and writing.
D.Songs are good for developing your understanding of English grammar.
E.Listening to music is fun.

9.As one of the most well-known of the fantasy languages invented for science fiction film,television and book,and developed by J.R.R.Tolkien himself,Elvish is made up with several thousand words and different sentence structures.
  Constructed languages (人造語言) like Elvish are real languages,madeup of thousands of words created by fantasy writers,linguists and fans,with real language rules.While a
widespread vocabulary is advantageous to a constructed language,there is a key differentiator (區(qū)分者) we can see between just a lot of words and real language:Grammar.
  Grammar is what makes constructed languages like Elvish learnable by everyday superfans.Superfans of The Lord of the Rings have built websites and created dictionaries,apps and translators,to teach Elvish.They have also created online clubs where fans can discuss and even create new words based on the already existing vocabulary,and continue to study the language.
  So what does it take to be a master of Elvish?
  In learning Elvish,there are a couple of grammatical rules similar to those of the English language.For example,in order to make a verb past tense in English,you have to add an-ed,makingwash,washed.Similarly in Elvish,in order to change the word for wash,which is allu,to the past tense then you have to add an-ne to the word.So washed is then translated to allune in past tense.
  Nouns in Elvish are different in the way that the noun changes depending on how it's used in a sentence,just like in Latin or Russian.For example,the word head in Elvish is CAS.However,if you duck your head,then the word changes to CARA.When mentioningsomething in your head,then it changes to CASSE.Tolkien's attention to detail in creating the fantasy world used in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit,complete with multiple functioning (多功能的) invented languages,has attracted readers and movie viewers these years.
  Elvish is only one of the many magical languages developed by J.R.R.Tolkien.Creating language for fantasy has proven to add to viewers and readers experiences.By transplanting their imagination to a new world,fans are able to learn the new language and speak Elvish with each other,much like their favorite characters.
52.Elvish is considered a real language becauseA.
A.certain grammatical rules make the language learnable
B.it is made up with lots of words and sentence structures
C.characters in The Lord of the Rings use it to communicate
D.new words can be created based on already existing words
53.For the fans of The Lord of the Rings,C.
A.Elvish is a language difficult to learn
B.there is no Elvish dictionary to refer to
C.Elvish adds to the novel's attractiveness
D.they can even create new grammar for Elvish
54.Which of the following is TRUE about Elvish?D
A.The translation of"washed"in Elvish is"allu".
B.The form of a noun doesn't change in Elvish.
C.Elvish and English share the same grammar.
D.Elvish is also used in the filmThe Hobbit.
55.The best title for this passage might beA.
A.Elvish,a Magical Language
B.J.R.R.Tolkien,a Great Writer
C.The Hobbit,a Wonderful Film
D.Language,a Way to Communicate.
