【題目】閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入適當?shù)膬?nèi)容(1個單詞)或括號內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。

There are two primarily choices in life: to accept conditions 【1】 they exist, or accept responsibility for changing them. Many people are 【2】 (constant) waiting for their life to start. They always say, “When I am older I will do this.” 【3】 “In a few years, I will do that.” They think the life they 【4】 (experience) is boring and 【5】 (mean). Who has never viewed himself or herself as worthless and unattractive?

All of us may suffer 【6】 (depress) and frustration, lose guidance and support, and need aids physically, emotionally, or spiritually. Just think like this way: This too shall pass. Horrible feelings I am feeling will eventually go away. I need to stop feeling so sorry for myself and actually want to change. I am 【7】 incredibly lucky person 【8】 has come from a family who love and support my whole life. I had to be the one 【9】 (make) the decision to change my way of thinking. All the good things and all the wonderful people in my life would pass eventually too. While I am feeling miserable, my life is still going on and I am missing out on appreciating those precious 【10】 (moment).

【答案】

【1】as

【2】constantly

【3】or

【4】are experiencing

【5】meaningless

【6】depression

【7】an

【8】who/that

【9】to make

【10】moments

【解析】

試題分析：人生有兩個主要的選擇：接受現(xiàn)況，或承擔(dān)改變現(xiàn)況的責(zé)任。

【1】as 句意：人生有兩個主要的選擇：接受現(xiàn)況，或承擔(dān)改變現(xiàn)況的責(zé)任。此處as引導(dǎo)一個方式狀語從句，“按著它們所存在的“。故填as。

【2】constantly 副詞修飾動詞，故填constantly。

【3】or 句意：“當我長大了，我會這樣做�！被颉霸趲啄陜�(nèi)，我會這樣做的�！贝颂幈硎疽环N“選擇”，故填or。

【4】are experiencing 此處表示“他們正在體驗的生活”，故用現(xiàn)在進行時態(tài)，are experiencing。

【5】meaningless 句意：他們認為他們正在體驗的生活是無聊的、無意義的。故填meaningless。

【6】depression suffer后面用名詞作賓語，“遭受沮喪和挫敗”，故填depression。

【7】an incredibly不可思議地，這個詞以元音開頭，所以加an表示“一”，故填an。

【8】who/that person是先行詞（指人），后面是一個定語從句，從句缺少引導(dǎo)詞，缺少主語，故填who/that。

【9】to make 此處是動詞不定式作后置定語，故填to make。

【10】moments 句意：那些珍貴的時刻。根據(jù)前面的those，可知用名詞復(fù)數(shù)，故填moments。

【名師點撥】

不定冠詞a 和an的用法。a用在以元音開頭的詞前，表示“一”； an用在以輔音開頭的詞前，表示“一”。比如小題1，university 這個詞以輔音開頭，所以前面加a，表示一所大學(xué)。an important meeting 一個重要的會議；an interesting story 一個有趣的故事；an old man 一位老人；an hour 一小時；an honest boy 一個誠實的男孩；an American lawyer一個美國的律師； a useful tool 一個有用的工具；a European friend一位歐洲的朋友。

【題目】閱讀理解。

Scientists around the world have been studying the warming of waters in the Pacific Ocean known as El Nino. The appearance of El Nino is known to affect the weather around the world. Scientists still do not completely understand it. Yet they now find they can use it to tell about the future in different areas of the world.

One example is the work of two scientists at Columbia University in New York, Mark Cane and Gordon Eshel. A scientist of Zimbabwe（津巴布韋）, Roger Buckland worked with them. They have found that when El Nino appears, Zimbabwe has little or no rain. This means corn crops in Zimbabwe are poor. The last El Nino was in 1991 to 1993. That was when southeastern Africa suffered a serious lack of rain.

The scientists wrote about their recent work in the publication Nature. Their computer program can tell when an El Nino will develop up to a year before it does. They suggest that this could provide an effective early warning system for southern Africa, and could prevent many people from starving.

【題目】Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.

What to Expect

The host will provide accommodation and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.

Accommodation Zones

Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential(居住的). Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area. It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground.

Meal Plans Available

Friends

Self-Catering (自助的)Accommodation in PrivateHomes

Accommodation on a room only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room.

George Washington Carver, who was born a slave in 1861, became one of America’s greatest scientists in the field of agriculture. His discoveries changed farming in the South of the United States. A quiet and kind man, he could have become rich from his discoveries but he preferred “to be of the greatest good to the greatest number of my people.”

George’s mother was a slave, but soon after he was born, he and his brother lost their mother and became orphans. They were raised by Moses and Susan Carver, who were their owners. Slaves took the names of their owners, so George Washington’s last name was Carver, too. In 1865, there were no longer slaves in the United States, but George and his brother continued to live with the Carvers. The Carvers gave him as much of an education as they could. At age 12, George left the Carvers to start life on his own.

For the next 12 years, he worked whenever he could and went to school whenever he could. He managed to finish high school and won a scholarship to go to Highland University. However, when he appeared at the university, they refused to admit him because he was black. This did not stop Carver. He continued to work and save money. Eventually, he went to Simpson College in 1890 to study painting and paid for his school by ironing clothes for other students. Soon, he realized he could not support himself as an artist and decided to study agriculture instead.

In 1891, he was accepted at Iowa Agricultural College. He was the only black student at the college, and as usual he supported himself by doing small jobs. He amazed everyone with his special work with plants. After he graduated, the college asked him to stay on as an instructor because his work with plants and chemistry was so outstanding. So Carver stayed on and taught, but he continued his research with plants while he was teaching.

One day he received a letter from Booker T. Washington, who was the most respected black educator in the country. Washington asked him to work at the Tuskegee Institute, a black agricultural school in Alabama. Tuskegee was a poor black school that could not give Carver a laboratory or a high salary, but Carver decided to go there.

In 1896, Carver started to teach and do research with plants at the Tuskegee Institute. He taught classes on agriculture, and through his experiments he found new ways to help the poor, struggling farmers of the South. Here, farmers had been growing cotton, which wore out the soil. He showed farmers how to plant different crops like peanuts to make the soil richer. After a while, farmers did what he said and were growing more and more peanuts. They were now making more money from peanuts than from cotton.

Carver developed many uses for the peanut. In fact, he found more than 300 uses for the peanut, and he became known as the “peanut man.” He received many prizes and awards for his work. He gave lectures about the uses of peanuts all over the United States and even spoke to Congress about peanuts in 1921. Meanwhile, Carver began to experiment with the sweet potato and discovered more than 100 products that could be made from it, including glue for postage stamps.

By the 1930s, Carver had become famous all over the country and the world. He visited the Prince of Sweden and the British Prince of Wales. Thomas Edison asked Carver to work for him at a salary of more than $100,000 a year. The car manufacturer Henry Ford also made him a generous offer. But Carver was not interested in money; he stayed on at the Tuskegee Institute with a monthly salary of $125.

In 1940, he gave all his life savings of $33,000 to the George Washington Carver Foundation to provide opportunities for African Americans to study in his field, because for Carver, “Education is the key to unlocking the golden door of freedom….” Carver died in 1943.

【1】Carver was the only black student at Iowa Agricultural College.

【2】Carver discovered more than 300 products from the sweet potato.

【3】Besides peanuts and sweet potatoes, Carver also did experiments on other plants.

【4】Carver gave his life savings to the George Washington Carver Foundation after he died.

【5】Not until he was 12 did Carver leave his former owners.

【6】field

【7】admit

【8】support

【9】struggling

A. earn money for a living

B. fighting

C. area of land

D. agree with and help somebody

E. trying to survive

F. agree unwillingly that something is true

G. allow to enter

H. area of interest or study

【10】According to the passage, which of the following could best describe the character of George Washington Carver?

A. Optimistic but stubborn.

B. Quiet but difficult.

C. Humorous and kind.

D. Creative and generous.

【題目】With more recognition than Halloween and less than Christmas, Valentine’s Day as an imported festival faces a dangerous situation in China, where it’s caught between forces of tradition and fashion. Valentine’s Day has a natural enemy in China. And it is not the Chinese equivalent, which falls on the seventh day of the seventh month on the lunar calendar, usually around half a year away from Feb. 14. It is the Spring Festival, also known as the Chinese New Year, that will influence the Feast of Saint Valentine.

The real disagreement between East and West probably took place over a century ago, when China’s door was forced open by Western powers and Chinese scholars supported westernization as a means to strengthenour nation’s ability to compete. The introduction of the solar calendarand Western measurements was both an acknowledgment of their influence and an effort to be accepted by the world order.

For a full century, we have had two systems running in parallel. When it comes to the eventual outcome, practicality usually beats all other concerns. Laws can help, such as the three traditional festivals of Tomb Sweeping, Dragon Boat and Mid-Autumn gaining legal status in 2008 and giving every Chinese citizen a day off, but laws cannot push what people have no feelings for. So, the celebration or boycott of imported holidaysor homegrown ones should be no cause for worry. If they are irrelevant, no social media will change the public’s mind; and if they are accepted, there must be a need which they happen to satisfy.

Since we have no global Qin Shihuang to force one system on every country, we can always rely on a dual(雙重) approach by which we share with the outside world on one hand but preserve our own ways of life on the other.

【1】 What does the author say about Valentine’s Day in China?

A. It is better received than Christmas.

B. It brings potential danger to people.

C. It becomes increasingly popular.

D. It happens to have a natural enemy.

【2】 The underlined word “equivalent” in the first paragraph refers to ________.

A. theChinese Valentine’s Day

B. theSpring Festival

C. fashion

D. custom

【3】 Which of the following can decide what to celebrate according to the author?

A. Laws. B. Media. C. Needs. D. Tradition.

【4】 The author believes that ________.

A. the conflict between East and West causes more trouble

B. two different systems of festivals can co-existin China

C. westernization is a symbol of a nation’s competitive ability

D. homegrown festivals are more important than imported ones
