9．Three-year-old Teddy Lasry was sleeping in his cowboy outfit （套裝） yesterday at his family's Fifth Ave．a(chǎn)partment when he shot up in bed screaming．A 3-foot-long black-and-white snake twisted around his left arm and had just bitten his little finger．
"The babysitter （a person taking care of children while their parents are away for a short time） was frightened to death，"said Teddy's father，David Lasry，who，along with his wife，Evelyn，was at work when the snake appeared about 4：00pm．
    The horrified babysitter called 911and the building's doorman．The doorman and two cable TV workers helped take the snake off the boy's arm and put it in a garbage bag．Police rushed Teddy to Mount Sinai Medical Center，where he spent two hours attached to a heart monitor as a precaution in case the snake was poisonous．It wasn't．Experts at the snakebite treatment center at Jacobi Medical Center in the Bronx，where policemen took the snake，found out it was a non-poisonous California king snake．
    But how did it end up in Teddy's bed？
    A little detective work determined that the snake had escaped two weeks ago from its cage in the apartment of a doctor whose family lives four floors below the Lasrys．The apologetic owner said his son's pet snake likely traveled up the water pipes and into his neighbor's apartment．"It's a very gentle，very harmless snake，"he said．"It's handled by our family all the time．"
    David Lasry believed the pet was simply hungry after two weeks of wandering．Evelyn said her son seems to have overcome his fright by thinking of himself as a hero cowboy as he rode in the back of the police car to the hospital．
"I told Teddy he's a pretty snake，a nice pet snake who got out of his cage，"Evelyn said．"But he asked，‘Why did he bite my finger，Mamma？'And I said，‘Because he saw that you are a big boy，Teddy，in your cowboy outfit and he got scared．'"

59．What did the babysitter do after Teddy was bitten by a snake？A
A．She made an emergency call．
B．She called the TV company．
C．She ran out of the apartment．
D．She took the snake off Teddy's arm．
60．We can learn from the passage that the snakeC．
A．was poisonous
B．was deserted by its owner
C．was kept in a cage by its owner
D．escaped to the apartment downstairs
61．From the passage，we knowA．
A．the snake was used to being touched
B．Teddy was awake when the snake arrived
C．Teddy's mother was at home when the snake turned up
D．Teddy needed a heart machine to stay alive for two hours
62．Teddy probably believed he was attacked becauseB．
A．his parents weren't at home
C．he was asleep
B．the snake was scared of him
D．the snake was hungry．

分析 本文主要講述了三歲的Teddy Lasry在家睡覺時(shí)被一條蛇咬了左手臂，嚇壞了的臨時(shí)保姆撥打了911，并且告訴了這棟建筑物的門衛(wèi)，隨后到來的警察把他帶到了醫(yī)院．幸運(yùn)的是，蛇是無毒的，是從樓下的一家鄰居里逃出來的．

解答 59--62 ACAB
59．A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第三段The horrified babysitter called 911 and the building's doorman．"可知，嚇壞了的臨時(shí)保姆撥打了911，告訴了這棟建筑物的門衛(wèi)．故選A．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 人物故事類閱讀理解文章是高考英語�？疾牧现唬@類文章一般可分為人物傳記和短篇故事兩類．這兩類閱讀材料一般較長(zhǎng)，即詞數(shù)多，而且命題也較多，特別是推理判斷題和事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題多．在做此類閱讀理解題時(shí)往往是材料看得懂，題目不好做的感覺．因此，在閱讀材料時(shí)要重點(diǎn)放在事情發(fā)展的過程和結(jié)果上，注意把握事件的發(fā)展進(jìn)程及人物之間的關(guān)系，細(xì)節(jié)與主題的關(guān)系，用以說明人物性格特點(diǎn)的事實(shí)、作者的態(tài)度等，這些內(nèi)容往往是推理判斷題的命題點(diǎn)．至于事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題的解答，同學(xué)們切忌想當(dāng)然或者憑印象，一定要找到文章中的原句，和題干進(jìn)行比較，再做出正確選擇．

4．Five steps to better handwriting
Some kids love handwriting，but others hate when it's time to put their pen to paper．Maybe they are worried about their handwriting．Are you one of them？（36）D  Here are five steps that really work!
Get a great grasp
Try this-hold your pencil at the top and try to write your name．Pretty hard？But when you hold your pencil the correct way，writing is much easier．（37）E Hold it in place with your thumb，and your index （食指） and middle fingers．
Let the lines be your guide
Lined paper is your friend!Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and proportion （均衡）．（38）A Also be sure to fill up the lined space completely．Those capital letters should be from the bottom line to the top one．
Slow down
If your writing is hard to read，try slowing down a little．If you rush，it's hard to control where you stop and start your letters．
Lower the pressure （壓力）
（39）CThat makes it harder to make the smooth lines．Try easing up and don't hold the pencil too tightly．
（40）F
Lots of games require you to write or draw pictures．So even though it's not schoolwork，you're still using the skills you need to control your pen better．

A．So"a"should be half the height of a capital"A"．
B．You've been writing since you were a little kid．
C．Some kids press down really hard when they write．
D．The good news is that just about everyone can improve their handwriting．
E．The best way to hold a pen or pencil is to let it rest next to the base of your thumb．
F．Play games
G．Ask for more advice．

18．Murder is totally unfair．The victims（犧牲者）of murder are gone forever．They will never enjoy the pleasures in life．But the murderer is still alive．Without the death sentence，murderers can participate in life．
Most killers would rather spend their lives in prison than die．It is natural that they want to live．In prison there are many small pleasures：the feeling of warm sunshine，the taste of a hot meal and the comfort of sleep．The lifestyle in prison is not always arduous； many prisoners have the chance to continue their education，to play sports，and to receive visits from their loved ones．
There is no reason why a killer should be allowed to live．Justice（公正）requires that each person respect the rights and freedoms of every other person，or be punished for not doing so．The murderers give up their rights to citizenship and to life itself．Also，keeping the killer in prison will cost taxpayers a lot of money．For these reasons，the only fair punishment is execution-to put the murderers to death．
The other side of this debate is that there are times when murder is committed not because of cruelty．People may kill for other reasons，such as out of anger，misunderstanding，or fear．Everyone has made mistakes because of such feelings．Sometimes people kill another person because they are defending themselves； this is another good reason to be careful when judging a person who has killed someone．
It is a very serious issue when someone takes another person's life．This is why it is so important to examine the facts of a murder closely．The reasons for murder are usually not very simple and that is why the government must take great care with this responsibility．The main concern is sentencing someone who didn't commit the murder．When the government kills someone，there is no way it can be changed．So the government must be sure they have the right person．
There is also the possibility that the people who committed the murder may change their life in prison and teach others to change their dangerous lifestyle．This way，a killer may be a benefit to society．Also，it takes many years before a killer is put to death，for there are extra trials and legal expenses the government must pay for．Finally，people must consider the idea of whether it is right for the government to kill someone who has killed a person．Is it right to answer violence with more violence？
1．The underlined word"arduous"in Paragraph 2 probably meansD．
A．violent          B．pleasant    C．comfortable          D．difficult
2．What is the passage mainly about？C
A．The advantages and disadvantages of imprisoning a criminal for life．
B．The arguments about how the government can reduce the murder rate．
C．The disagreement on whether a murderer should be put to death or not．
D．The suggestions on how to improve the living conditions of the prisoners．
3．According to the passage，what should the government make sure about？B
A．The taxpayers prepare the money for extra trials．
B．The person who is to be put to death is a murderer．
C．The government will never change its beliefs to kill murderers．
D．The murderers want to give up their rights to citizenship and life．
4．Which statement supports the idea that murderers should be put to death？D
A．Killing a murderer is a violent act in itself in modern times．
B．People can change，even those who have made terrible mistakes．
C．Someone who didn't commit the murder might be put to death wrong．
D．Let sunshine fall on those who respect life，not on those who destroy it．
