1.Long long ago a man went to India and he had never been there before.When he got there,he saw a lot of fruit,but much of it was expensive because they couldn't grow much because there was little water.Finally he saw a big basket of some very red and long fruit.And it was the cheapest in the shop.
So he went up and asked,"How much each kilo?"and the shop keeper said,"Two rupees(盧比)."Two rupees in India was nothing.So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it.But after he ate some of it:oh,my god!His eyes watered,his mouth watered and burnt,and his face became red.He jumped up and down,saying,"Ah!Ah!Ah!"
But he still continued to eat the fruit!Some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said,"You're crazy,man.Those are chilies(辣椒)!You can't eat so many!People use them as a condiment,but only a little bit to put into food for taste.You can't just eat them like that."But the silly man said,"No,I can't stop!I paid money for them,and now I'll eat them up.It's my money!"
And you think that man was silly,right?We sometimes do a lot of things like that.We spend money,time or effort doing something.And even though it's been a long time,hard experience tells us it won't work,and we know there's no more hope,we still continue just because we've put money,time,effort and love in to it.Just like the man who ate the chilies and felt so bad but couldn't stop because he didn't want to waste the money he'd paid.
So even if you've lost something,let it go and move on.That's better than continuing to lose.

70.The man chose to buy the red and long fruit only becauseC.
A.he hadn't eaten it before   B.he was hungry
C.it was cheap     D.he hadn't seen it before
71.The underlined  word"condiment"in Paragraph3probably meansC.
A.零食     B.水果     C.調(diào)料     D.蔬菜
72.Which of the following sentence is TRUE?B
A.The man went to India to buy fruit.B.The man didn't want to waste money.
C.The man bought the fruit because it was expensive.D.India can grow a lot of fruit.
73.From the passage,we can learn thatD.
A.we shouldn't waste money           B.we shouldn't eat chilies
C.we shouldn't buy something cheap   D.letting something go is better than keeping on losing.

分析 很久很久以前有一個人去了印度,他從未去過那兒.當他到了那里,他看到了很多水果,但大部分是昂貴的,因為水很少,所以種植的水果不多.終于,他看到了一大筐的又紅又長的果子,是全店最便宜的.
  于是,他買了整整一公斤的果子,并開始吃.剛吃了一些,他的眼睛流淚,滿臉變得通紅.但他還是繼續(xù)吃果子!周圍觀看的告訴他當?shù)厝税阉鳛橐环N調(diào)味品,只用一點增加食物的味道.辣椒是不能隨便這樣吃的.但這個人說自己花了錢,就應(yīng)該吃光.
我們有時也會做這樣的事情.我們花錢、時間和精力做一些事情,盡管花了漫長的時間,艱苦的經(jīng)歷告訴我們,行不通,而且我們知道沒有希望了,但我們?nèi)詧猿,只因為我們已?jīng)把金錢、時間、精力和愛投進去.就像那個吃辣椒的人,感覺如此糟糕,但不能停止,因為他不想浪費已經(jīng)付了的錢.
   所以,即使你已經(jīng)失去了一些東西,就讓它失去吧,繼續(xù)前行,那比繼續(xù)失去更好.

解答 70.答案:C 細節(jié)理解題  根據(jù)原文當中的And it was the cheapest in the shop 和Two rupees in India was nothing.So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it.可以推斷這個人選擇買又紅又長的那種水果,是因為這種水果便宜.故選:C
71.答案:C 詞義猜測題  聯(lián)系這句話的上下文,You can't eat so many!"你不能多吃"和but only a little bit to put into food for taste."只用一點增加食物的味道"可以推測劃線單詞的意思是"調(diào)料",故選:C
72.答案:B  細節(jié)理解題  選項A:那個人去印度為了買水果,聯(lián)系原文,沒有介紹他去印度的目的;選項B:那個人不想浪費錢,聯(lián)系原文No,I can't stop!I paid money for them,and now I'll eat them up.It's my money!"可知這句話是正確的;選項C:那個人買了水果,因為水果很貴,聯(lián)系原文中的Two rupees in India was nothing.So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it可知這個人是因為便宜才買了水果;選項D:印度人可以種植許多水果,聯(lián)系原文中的they couldn't grow much because there was little water;這句話可知,因為雨水少,印度人無法種植很多水果;所以只有選項B正確.故選:B
73.答案:D  主旨大意題  根據(jù)原文中的最后一句話:So even if you've lost something,let it go and move on.That's better than continuing to lose可以推斷從這篇文章中,我們明白的道理是:即使你已經(jīng)失去了一些東西,就讓它失去吧,繼續(xù)前行,那比繼續(xù)失去更好.故選:D

點評 做閱讀理解時,要注意培養(yǎng)自己快速閱讀的習慣.切不可在個別難懂的詞句上磨蹭,只要全篇理解了,個別難懂的詞句可以根據(jù)上下文和構(gòu)詞法去猜測,去推斷.

16.An 8.3-magnitude(里氏8.3級)earthquake can often cause fallen buildings and hundreds or even thousands of victims.But only 13 people were killed in the powerful earthquake in Chile on Sept 16,2015.That is the most surprising thing.
According to New York Times.Chile had spent quite a lot of money on the project of making its buildings stronger.Also,it had changed its tsunami(海嘯)warning system.Both of these helped prevent a disaster in the country.
Besides,strict laws and rules have made people more ready for earthquakes.Schools have increasingly started doing drills(演練),all society is filled with creative ways to keep safe in earthquakes.
Chile,a South American country,is one of the places where earthquakes are most likely.Its 17 million people have been taught more than enough information about earthquake.The strongest earthquakes ever recorded happened in Chile:a 9.5-magnitude earthquake in 1960 that killed more than 5,000 people.And most recently,an 8.8-magnitude earthquake in central Chile in 2010 killed more than 500 people and destroyed 220,000 homes.
The 2010 earthquake was 5.6 times more powerful than the 2015 earthquake.And the 2010 earthquake hit in the middle of the night,while the 2015 earthquake happened during an evening when many people were outside for barbecues and other celebrations before the country's Independence Day on Sept 18.
The biggest problem in 2010 was human mistakes.The government failed to warn people to move off the coast after the earthquake hit near the southern city of Concepcion.
The government made no such mistakes this time giving tsunami warnings minutes after the earthquake hit.To reduce more risk in the earthquake,classes were canceled and factories closed across the country on Sept 17.
