But when Jimmy got on stage, something surprising happened. He went through 4 short song and then stayed. The applause grew louder and louder and he kept 5 (stay). Pretty soon, he had been on stage 6 fifteen, twenty, and then thirty minutes. One of his 7 (assist) behind the stage stopped him and said, “I thought you had to go after a few minutes. What happened?”

Jimmy answered, “I did have to go, but I can show you the reason why I stayed. You can see for 8 (you) if you look at the front row.” In the front row were two men, both of 9 had lost an arm in the war. One had lost his right arm and the other had lost his left.

【6】for

【7】assistants

【8】yourself

【9】whom

【10】were doing

【解析】

試題分析:本文屬于記敘文,講述了著名的歌星Jimmy Durante,參加二戰(zhàn)老兵的節(jié)目時,被兩位失去一只胳膊的老兵所感動,久久不肯離去的故事。

【1】Asked 考查分詞做狀語。本句中動詞ask與句子主語構(gòu)成被動關(guān)系,所以使用過去分詞在句中做狀語。句意:被請求參加為二戰(zhàn)士兵舉行的節(jié)目時候,他告訴他們他很忙只有幾分鐘的時間,但是如果他們不介意她只唱一首短歌并很快就離開,他會去參加這個節(jié)目。

【2】 but 考查連詞。根據(jù)句意可知他很忙,但是如果他們不介意他只唱一首短歌并迅速離開,他會去參加這個節(jié)目。根據(jù)句意可知上下文之間是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,所以使用but表示轉(zhuǎn)折。

【3】 happily 考查副詞。在英語中通常使用副詞作狀語,修飾形容詞、副詞或動詞。本句中使用happily修飾動詞agree。句意:節(jié)目的導(dǎo)演高興地同意了。因為他是著名的歌手,能來參加已經(jīng)很好了。

【4】the 考查冠詞。在英語中通常使用定冠詞表示特指,本句中使用定冠詞the特指在一段中提到的one short song

【5】staying 考查非謂語動詞。固定搭配keep doing sth一直做某事。根據(jù)前一句He went through________ short song and then stayed.可知他唱了那首短歌以后并沒有離開,而是留了下來。觀眾的掌聲很熱烈,他繼續(xù)留了下來。

【6】for 考查介詞。介詞for+一段時間表示某個動作持續(xù)了很長時間。本句表示他在舞臺上停留的時間很長。

【7】assistants 考查名詞。動詞assist意為幫助,本句中形容詞性物主代詞his的后面要接名詞assistant助手,指他的一個助手?jǐn)r住了他提醒他要離開了。

【8】yourself 考查固定搭配。介詞短語for oneself親自;句意:如果你看前排,你就可以親眼看見了。

【9】whom 考查定語從句。本題定語從句的先行詞是two men,whom指代先行詞在句中做介詞of的賓語,引導(dǎo)起這個非限制性賓語從句。

【10】 were doing 考查時態(tài)。本句表示在Jimmy Durante表演的時候,這兩位老兵各用一剩下的手熱烈鼓掌。所以使用過去進行時。

House Sitting

In many countries of the world people do what is called house sitting. It means that if owners of the house are going away, they want someone to come into their home and look after the house and maybe pets while they are away.

In Australia, many people travel. After people retire, they might buy a van and travel all over the country. 【1】

So if someone wants to travel or go away for some reason, they might want someone in their home to care for it and keep the gardens tidy. House sitters might have to care for pets. Also, quite a few people have swimming pools in their back yard and they need cleaning. 【2】 I feel it is a great way of seeing the country, because you go and stay in a new city, get to meet new people, and have time to go sightseeing in a new area.

【3】 There are websites where you find the advertisements by people who want to travel, and by replying to the advertisement, you can make arrangements to go and look after their home.

There are some requirements to be a house sitter. You must be a trusted person, so that the home owner knows you will not steal anything. You must be able to go when the house owner wants you to go, so you need lots of free time. 【4】 You need to be good with pets, able to care for cats and dogs, or other pets they may have.

Some house sitting jobs are just for a few days or a couple of weeks while the house owners have a short holiday. Sometimes it is for much longer. We have had one house sit for six months, while the home owner travelled to Europe.

【5】 Then you can travel to many different countries and stay there. One of the important things to get is references from the home owners where you have stayed. A reference is a written letter to say that you are trustworthy and have looked after their home well. You can show these letters to possible house sitting jobs and they know you will do a good job.

A. I have done house sitting many times.

B. Thousands of people do this all the time.

C. It is also possible to do house sitting in other countries.

D. Generally you have many opportunities to get a house sitting job.

E. You must take a little care over what your description says about you.

F. This is an international house sitting service for all city and country areas.

G. You must have a good car, so you can travel to different parts of the country.

【題目】The companies below offer student accommodation(住宿) all around London, no matter what university you are attending. And they limit the complications (復(fù)雜) that other rental companies can have (such as paying for heat and hot water, paying your rent yearly and so on).

CRM Students has 12 different properties (房產(chǎn)) to choose from in London with various size choices depending on your budget and requirements. Prices start from 140 per week.

International Students House is unique because they offer twin, triple and quad rooms, which means they are cheaper per week than others. Of course, you will be sharing your bedroom with up to three other people. Prices start from 78.4 per week.

Prodigy Living has several properties in London (most of which have just been decorated) and offers en-suite (套房) rooms in flats and one-bedroom flats. Prices start from 209 per week.

Scape Living has properties in Greenwich, Surrey and Shoreditch, with the latter two being new apartments as of 2015, which means they will be in pretty good condition. Prices start from 185 per week.

Unite Students offers student accommodation in various areas of London, from en-suite rooms to two-bedroom flats, with lots of sharing choices available. Prices start from 169 per week.

These student housing associations are the best I found on the Internet for cheap student accommodation in London; however, I am aware that new ones are appearing every day. For a full list of associations like these (but most are more expensive than those listed above), I recommend checking out UCL’s alternative accommodation page.

Note: Most rooms require a small deposit (押金), which is typically the same value as your weekly rental price ( for example, 200 per week = 200 deposit before you move in).

1Why does the author recommend the companies above?

ABecause they offer all kinds of student accommodation.

BBecause they allow students to pay the rent weekly.

CBecause they mainly provide one-bedroom flats.

DBecause they avoid the need for students to pay extra for facilities (設(shè)施) in the room.

2The rent of the houses that International Students House offers is cheaper than others because _________.

Astudents have to share the bedrooms with others

Bstudents needn’t pay for heat and water

Cmost of the houses have just been decorated

Dstudents don’t have the right to choose the room size

3How much will you pay if you want to rent a new apartment?

AAt least 140 per week.

BAt least 78.40 per week.

CAt least 195 per week.

DAt least 185 per week.

【題目】“When I grow up, I want to be...”

Almost all of us have thought about,or been asked to think about,our future careers. Our answers may differ greatly. Even now your aspirations(志向,抱負)may have changed from when you were in primary school.

However,it seems that career choices aren't only based on personal taste. In a survey carried out by Teens, doctors,lawyers,and bankers were some of most popular careers that people said they hoped to follow. This is similar to a survey carried out in the UK in May 2016 by job website—Co.uk,in which medicine was the top choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17.

Medicine and law are two of the oldest and best known professions. Their prestige (威望) may come from the fact that doctors and lawyers are muchrespected members of society,and they make good money. What's more, these professions are often seen as a sign of upward social class.

It is equally unsurprising that banking is now one of the most common career choices. Youngsters worldwide think of banking and see the money rolling in. Wealth is increasingly becoming one of the most important indicators(標(biāo)志) of a successful career.

However,not every child has the makings of doctor, lawyer, or banker. They are those who see achievement and happiness in other areas. As the Teens' survey discovered,a variety of unconventional(非傳統(tǒng)的) jobs—coffee shop owner,waiter at a fast food restaurant—are among teenagers' career choices. They can be equally interesting and rewarding jobs.

With every choice comes responsibility and challenge,and all career paths require specific educationand training,you have to learn to balance optimism(樂觀主義)and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills.

【1】 What is the passage mainly about?

A. Careers in teenagers' mind.

B. Choosing a good job is very important.

C. Teenagers in the UK like doctors.

D. The choice of career needs challenge.

【2】What is the top career choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17 according to the article?

A. Medicine. B. Law. C. Bank. D. Education.

【3】 All of the following are the benefits of being a doctor or a lawyer except .

A. respect from others

B. the oldest profession

C. high pay

D. upward social class

【4】 What can be learned from the last two paragraphs?

A. Careers such as waiters are not as rewarding as doctors and lawyers.

B. Specific education and training can help get a good job.

C. Responsibility is the most important when you choose a good job.

D. Optimism and confidence is more important than being realistic when choosing careers.
