A flock of hungry pigeons were flying across the sky in search of food. Having traveled a long distance, they felt tired and settled down on a tree. Just below the tree, they saw grains strewn (撒滿) all over the ground. The pigeons were happy to have found enough food to eat. All the pigeons came down from the tree and started eating the grains. As they were doing so, a huge net fell on them and trapped them all.
The pigeons were taken aback. They noticed a hunter sitting at a distance from the tree, a bow and arrow in hand. The pigeons realized it was the hunter who had trapped them in the net. The hunter got up and began to move towards the pigeons.
The leader of the pigeons spoke, “Friends, we are in great trouble. The hunter will catch us if we do not act swiftly in a few seconds. There is only one option available at this moment. Let all of us use our force together and fly up along with the net. If all of us use our force and fly together, we can fly carrying the net along with us. Let us start now.”
All the pigeons agreed with him and flew high carrying the net along with them. After traveling enough distance away from the hunter, the pigeons settled on a tree and carefully came out of the net one by one and thus escaped the evil design of the hunter.

解析試題分析:一群饑腸轆轆的鴿子在覓食時(shí)中了獵人的圈套,領(lǐng)頭的鴿子臨危不懼,鎮(zhèn)定自若,帶領(lǐng)其他鴿子最終從網(wǎng)中成功逃出。
【小題1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第三句中的內(nèi)容They noticed a hunter sitting at a distance from the tree, a bow and arrow in hand. The pigeons realized it was the hunter who had trapped them in the net.可知在地面上拋灑谷物的是那個(gè)“獵人”。 選B
【小題2】猜測(cè)詞義題。上一段的最后提到獵人朝鴿子走過來,再結(jié)合領(lǐng)頭鴿所說的話可推測(cè)它們此刻只有一種“選擇”。 選B
【小題3】推理判斷題。結(jié)合第三段領(lǐng)頭鴿所說的話以及下一段第一句中的內(nèi)容可推測(cè)它們落入圈套后相當(dāng)鎮(zhèn)靜。根據(jù)常識(shí)可知如果鴿子朝四面八方飛,他們就不可能將網(wǎng)帶起來,所以B 項(xiàng)不正確。 選C
【小題4】主旨大意題。群鴿在生命危急之時(shí)在領(lǐng)頭鴿的帶領(lǐng)下共同努力,最終擺脫了獵人的邪惡圈套,由此可知本文的主旨是“團(tuán)隊(duì)協(xié)作可以創(chuàng)造奇跡”。 A 項(xiàng)表示“兩個(gè)臭皮匠,頂個(gè)諸葛亮”;B 項(xiàng)表示“自信可挽救每一個(gè)人”;D 項(xiàng)表示“事實(shí)勝于雄辯”,都不能很好地概括文章大意。選C

While I was in my 4th month of pregnancy (妊娠期) with my second child, we were preparing for a trip to Louisiana, where Marshall’s family live, to celebrate Jane’s 2nd birthday. Two days before we were to leave, we got the shocking news that I was going to lose the baby. Not knowing when this would happen, we decided to continue with our trip.
Since Marshall’s family lives on a 600-acre cattle farm, you often find that you have a lot of time to yourself to think when you are there. That is precisely what I did not want to do at this time. I told Marshall that I needed to get a good book to get lost in while I was there. I told him I heard the Harry Potter books were good, so he went out and got the first one for me.
During that trip, I totally got lost in the book, which was of great help during a time when I needed a distraction to forget about the sadness. In the book, I noticed the name “Seamus”. I vaguely remembered it was pronounced “Shamus” and I liked the sound of that. I mentioned it to Marshall and he liked it too. Toward the end of the trip, I had just 5 chapters left and I knew I was about to finish the first book, which I was pretty excited about.
Soon after we put Jane down to bed, I had started labor (分娩), so I was unable to read. The labor lasted 5 and 1/2 hours, but Marshall stayed there with me, sitting beside me and reading aloud the last 5 chapters of Harry Potter. I can never fully explain how much that helped me through the experience. And ever since then, Marshall and I both have been fans of the Harry Potter books. We remember how they helped us get through that time of our lives.
We were sad to have lost the baby, but the name Seamus started our journey toward adoption. And we gave this name to our adopted son. Though our Seamus doesn’t have a drop of Irish blood in him, the name fits him perfectly.
【小題1】Why did the writer want a good book during the trip?
A.Because the trip to Louisiana would take a long time. |
B.Because she didn’t want to think of losing her baby. |
C.Because she had nothing else to do except reading. |
D.Because a good book could help her enjoy her trip. |
A.made the family’s trip more exciting |
B.include five books all together |
C.have someone called Seamus in them |
D.can help people deal with their problems |
A.she wanted to keep her trip in memory |
B.she loved this name very much |
C.her son doesn’t have Irish blood |
D.it is a perfect name for a boy |
A.They planned their trip after getting the shocking news. |
B.They thought the cattle farm was too large to do anything on. |
C.They felt excited when they almost finished the trip. |
D.They liked reading Harry Porter very much after the trip. |
A.Funny Stories Of My Family | B.Seamus And Harry Potter |
C.How We Got To Louisiana | D.How My Son Got His Name |

Looking back on my childhood, I believe that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and my sisters soon gave up their flowers and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic (算術(shù)).
Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim(暗淡的) memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a crystal(水晶)clear memory of the dogs, farm animals, local birds, and above all, insects.
I am a naturalist, nor a scientist. I have a strong love for the natural world and my enthusiasm (熱情) has led me into varied investigations (調(diào)查). I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil reading about other people’s observations and discoveries. Then something brings these observations together in my mind. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books.
But curiosity(好奇心), a keen (敏銳的)eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist. A scientist, up to a point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.
【小題1】The first paragraph tells us the writer .
A.was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood |
B.lost his hearing when he was a child |
C.didn’t like his brothers and sisters |
D.was born into a naturalist’s family |
A.he didn’t live very long with them |
B.the family was very large |
C.he was too young when he lived with them |
D.he devoted himself to observing nature |
A.a(chǎn) scientist as well as a naturalist |
B.not a naturalist but a scientist |
C.only a born naturalist |
D.first of all a scientist |

One day I was driving to a business appointment and, as usual, I was planning in my mind what I was going to say. I came to a very busy crossroad where the stoplight had just turned red.
A young couple, both blind, were walking across the road. Each of them had a white cane(手杖). They were overcoming the most feared blindness. I held my breath when I noticed that the couple was not walking on the crosswalk, but was instead stepping directly into the middle of the crossroad. Without realizing the danger they were in, they were walking right into the path of the oncoming cars. I was frightened for them because I didn’t know if the other drivers understood what was happening. Then I saw a miracle unfold before my eyes. Every car in every direction came to a stop at the same time. Nobody can yelled, “Get out of the way!”
Amazed, I noticed that everyone’s attention was also fixed on the couple. Suddenly the driver to my right reacted. He yelled, “To your right.”O(jiān)ther people followed, shouting, “To your right!”Trusting their elite canes and the calls from some concerned citizens, they made it to the other side of the road. I could judge they had no idea what was really going on around them. Yet I immediately felt smiles appeared on everyone’s face. The driver to the left of me was saying, “I can’t believe it!”
I thought all of us were deeply moved by what we had just seen. Here were human beings stepping outsides themselves for a while to help other people in deed.

The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666. In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. Over one hundred people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives.
The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King’s baker(面包師)in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window into the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery(面包房)into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.
By eight o’ clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Pauls and the Guildhall among them.
Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, write about the fire, “People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat .”
The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.
After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect(建筑師), wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow, but he did build more than fifty churches, among them the mew St Pauls.
The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past.
【小題1】The fire began in_________ .
A.a(chǎn) hotel | B.the palace | C.Pudding Lane | D.Thames Street |
A.home | B.children | C.wife and husband | D.wife and children |

There are stories about two US Presidents,Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren,which attempt to explain the American English term OK. We don't know if either story is true,but they are both interesting.
The first explanation is based on the fact that President Jackson had very little education. In fact,he had difficulty reading and writing. When important papers came to Jackson,he tried to read them and then had his assistants explain what they said. If he approved of a paper, he would write “all correct” on it. The problem was that he didn't know how to spell. So what he really wrote was “ol korekt”. After a while,he shortened that term to “OK”.
The second explanation is based on the place where President Van Buren was born,Kinderhook,New York. Van Buren's friends organized a club to help him become president. They called the club the Old Kinderhook Club,and anyone who supported Van Buren was called “OK”.
【小題1】The author ________.
A.believes both of the stories |
