Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a    1   in number. Human beings are born with this ability.   2   , experiments show that many animals are, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not    3  .However, if you remove two, the bird    4   leaves. This means that the bird knows the    5   between two and three.
Another interesting experiment showed a bird's    6   number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow（烏鴉）that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not    7   until the man left the tower. The man had an    8  .He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not    9   the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was    10   with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were    11  .It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were    12   able to fool the crow.
How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a    13   group. But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are    14   fooled.
It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human    15   is not much better than a crow's.

小題1:change 考察動(dòng)詞后文中的從four, one, two都說(shuō)明是在變化。根據(jù)上下文意思答題。其他選項(xiàng)A rise 意為上升，B pattern 意為樣式， D trend 意為趨向。
小題2:Surprisingly 考察副詞，根據(jù)上下文句意，此處表示驚訝，居然動(dòng)物也具有這種能力。
小題3:notice 考察動(dòng)詞，原詞重現(xiàn)，F(xiàn)or example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a    13   ）意為注意、留意。此題的C hatch選項(xiàng)意為孵化，該詞不常見(jiàn)，出處在人教新課標(biāo)版Book8 U2。
小題4:generally 考察副詞。根據(jù)上下文意思可以得出答案。此句意為“鳥(niǎo)普遍會(huì)離開(kāi)”。另外，此題也可以通過(guò)排除法解答。其他選項(xiàng)代入意思都不匹配。
小題5:difference 考察名詞。根據(jù)上下文意思答題。從上兩句“If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not    3  .However, if you remove two, the bird    4   leaves.”的表達(dá)或第1 題change不難得出答案。D選項(xiàng)interval超綱了，意為間隔。
小題6:amazing 考察形容詞，根據(jù)上下文意思以及第二題的surprisingly不難得出答案。
小題7:return 考察動(dòng)詞。根據(jù)“The crow stayed away until the second man left, too.”的stayed away 以及第11題前“But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were    11  .”的return不難得出答案。
此題答題的關(guān)鍵是看重復(fù)出現(xiàn)until的結(jié)構(gòu)語(yǔ)句。The bird did not    7   until the man left the tower. /The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. /It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were    12   able to fool the crow.
小題8:idea 考察名詞，上下義重現(xiàn)。根據(jù)上下文，后面的做法都表明這是一個(gè)主意想法。可以直接排除其他選項(xiàng)。
小題9:fool 考察動(dòng)詞，原詞重現(xiàn)，根據(jù)12題“   12   able to fool the crow.”的fool 以及14題“the children are    14   fooled.”的詞fooled可以得出答案。
小題10:repeated 考察動(dòng)詞 從上下文意思可以得出答案為重復(fù)做。此外，也可以根據(jù)常識(shí)中的實(shí)驗(yàn)是要反復(fù)進(jìn)行的。
小題11:gone 考察動(dòng)詞，同義重現(xiàn)，根據(jù)第10題前的語(yǔ)句“The crow stayed away until the second man left, too.”中的left和第12題的語(yǔ)句“It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were    12   able to fool the crow.”中的
left可以知道答案。

小題12:finally 考察副詞根據(jù)上下文意思可知此處表示多次努力后最終成功。
小題13:small 考察形容詞 反義重現(xiàn)及排除法可以解答。相對(duì)于three or four, 用small較恰當(dāng)。single只能表示1 不能表示2。local和new與本文的內(nèi)容沒(méi)有任何關(guān)系。
小題14:often 考察副詞。根據(jù)上下文意思可以得出答案。前一句“For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice”的always 和本句中的“But when the number goes beyond three or four,”but可以得知此處答案為often.
小題15:ability 考察名詞，最后一段是對(duì)文章的總結(jié)。原詞重現(xiàn)，根據(jù)第一段第一句和第二句話“Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a    1   in number. Human beings are born with this ability.”不難得出答案。
【考點(diǎn)定位：】考察六個(gè)動(dòng)詞，四個(gè)副詞，二個(gè)形容詞，三個(gè)名詞
其中運(yùn)用重現(xiàn)策略解題的題目有七道題。分別是 3（原詞重現(xiàn)），7（原詞重現(xiàn)或反義重現(xiàn)），8（上下義重現(xiàn)），9（原詞重現(xiàn)），11（同義重現(xiàn)）13（反義重現(xiàn)），15（原詞重現(xiàn)）
備考提示：副詞這兩年都考查了較多（往年要么一個(gè)或者沒(méi)有），重現(xiàn)依然占有一定的比例。所以在平時(shí)的復(fù)習(xí)中選題或編題，應(yīng)該按照這種情況作相應(yīng)的調(diào)整。

One day, when I went shopping with Julie, we came across something special. Waiting in a long checkout line, I thought about going to another, which had the shortest queue. There was only one guy in it, but he was in a wheelchair. Well, we stepped in behind him. At first, he seemed to be having difficulty getting his groceries onto the checking desk. But after a while, I realized that what he was actually doing was separating them into two piles.
However, doing that job was no easy task in itself. I offered to help, but he and the checkout lady had it under control. He asked my wife if she would mind putting his empty basket away. What must it be like, I wondered, to be so dependent on other people like that? The checkout operator came around and gave him his change and the items he needed to have to hand. She hung one bag of groceries over a handle at the back of his chair. I offered to get the other, bigger, bag and he said, “No. But you could do me a favour. Take that lot along to the entrance and give it to Angela.”
As I was told, I did that, leaving Julie with our shopping. Angela, as turned out, was collecting food for people who might otherwise go hungry! I hadn't even noticed her before. This guy, despite the limitations that his physical condition imposed on him, had bought more than twice as much shopping as he needed – and given the bigger bag away to help other people! He didn't let the fact that he needed help stop him from being a help. He may have been limited physically, but his heart was more than capable of overcoming all that. And it changed my idea of dependence when I realized that the help he had given was more than the help he had received.
So … what’s holding the rest of us back?
小題1: From the first paragraph, we know that______.
A．the writer was obviously a disabled person
B．the man in a wheelchair was a shopper
C．the writer and Julie jumped the queue
D．only three people were shopping then
小題2: The man put the things he bought into two piles, probably because______.
A．his shopping bags were too small to hold all the groceries
B．he hoped to keep the balance of his wheelchair
C．he intended to help the people in need
D．it would be easy for him to carry
小題3: From the passage, we can learn that Angela was probably______.
A．the disabled person’s wife
B．the girl at the checking desk
C．a(chǎn) hungry and homeless beggar
D．a(chǎn) kind-hearted and helpful woman
小題4: Which of the following can best describe the man in the wheelchair?
A．kind, energetic and determined
B．positive, dependent and easy-going
C．a(chǎn)ctive, optimistic and open-minded
D．helpful, generous and strong-hearted

When I was a baby, I entertained you and made you laugh．Whenever I was “bad”, you'd shake your finger at me and ask, “How could you?”--but then you'd give up, and roll me over for a belly scratch and I believed that life could not be any more perfect．
My housetraining was a long process, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. We went for long walks, runs in the park and car rides. We stopped for ice cream. I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.
Gradually, you began spending more time at work and on your career, and more time searching for a human mate．Eventually, you fell in love．She, now your wife, is not a dog person, but I still welcomed her into our home．I was happy because you were happy．Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement, I was fascinated by their pinkness, how they smelled, and I wanted to mother them too．
Your wife was afraid I would bite them．But nevertheless, as they began to grow, I became their friend．Now, you have a new job in another city and you and they will be moving to an apartment that does not allow pets．You've made the right decision for your “family”, but there was a time when I was your only family．
I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the dog pound．It smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness．You filled out the paperwork and said, “I know you will find a good home for her”．They shrugged and gave you a pained look．The children were in tears as they waved me goodbye．And “How could you?” were the only three words that swept over my mind．
Is it better to live with hope or without hope? At first, whenever anyone passed my pen （圍欄）, I rushed to the front, hoping it was you, that you had changed your mind and that this was all a bad dream．
My beloved master, I will think of you and wait for you forever．I hope you receive more faithfulness from your family than you showed to me．

The light from the campfire brightened the darkness, but it could not prevent the damp cold of Dennis’s Swamp (沼澤地) creeping into their bones. It was a strange place. Martin and Tom wished that they had not accepted Jack’s dare. They liked camping, but not near this swamp.
“So,” Martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. “How did this place get its name?”
“Are you sure you want to hear it ? It’s a scary story,” warned Jack.
“Of course!” cried out Tom. “If there were anything to be scared of, you wouldn’t have chosen this place!”
“Ok, but don’t say I didn’t warn you,” said Jack, and he began this tale.
“Way back in time, a man called Dennis tried to start a farm here. He built that cottage over there to live in. In those days, the area looked quite different ---- it was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal-clear river. After three hard years, Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. He was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice.
“‘You are clearing too much land,’ warned one old man. ‘ The land is a living thing. It will hit back at you if you abuse it. ’
“‘Silly fool,’ said Dennis to himself. ‘If I clear more land, I can grow more crops. I’ll become wealthier. He’s just jealous!’”
“Dennis continued to chop down trees. Small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed. He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. He did not notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”
“What happened?” Martin asked. It was growing colder. He trembled, twisting his body closer to the fire.
“The land hit back ---- just as the old man warned,” Jack shrugged. “Dennis disappeared. Old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. His body was never found.”
“What a stupid story,” laughed Tom. “Plants can’t …” Before he had finished speaking, he screamed and fainted (暈倒). The other two boys jumped up with fright, staring at Tom. Suddenly, they burst out laughing. Some green swamp ivy (常春藤) had covered Tom’s face. It was a while before Tom could appreciate the joke.
小題1:The underlined word “dare” in Paragraph 1 is closed in meaning to ________.
A．courageB．a(chǎn)ssistanceC．instructionD．challenge
小題2:Why did Jack tell Tom and Martin the story?
A．To frighten them.
B．To satisfy their curiosity.
C．To warn them of the danger of the place.
D．To persuade them to camp in the swamp.
小題3:Why did Dennis ignore the warning of the old man?
A．The old man envied him.B．The old man was foolish
C．He was too busy to listen to others.D．He was greedy for more crops.
小題4:Why did Tom scream and faint?
A．He saw Dennis’s shadowB．He was scared by a plant
C．His friends played a joke on him.D．The weather became extremely cold.
小題5:What lesson can we learn from the story of Dennis?
A．Grasp all, lose all
B．No sweat, no sweet.
C．It is no use crying over spilt milk
D．He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.

TaIL Spin
Two dolphins race around in a big pool in the Ocean Park. The smaller dolphin Grace, shown off a few of her tricks, turning around and waving hello to the crowd. The most amazing thing about her, however, is that she’s even swimming at all. She doesn’t have a tail.
Grace lost her tail as a baby when she got caught up in a fish trap. When the dolphin arrived at the Ocean Park in December 2005, she was fighting for her life. “Is she going to make it?” Her trainer, Abbey Stone, feared the worst. Grace did make it --- but her tail didn’t. She ended up losing her flukes and the lower part of her peduncle.
Over the past six years, she has learned to swim without her tail. Dolphins swim by moving their flukes and peduncle up and down. Grace taught herself to move another way---like a fish! She pushed herself forward through the water by moving her peduncles from side to side.
The movement put harmful pressure on Grace’s backbone. So a company offered to create a man-made tail for her. The tail had to be strong enough to stay on Grace as she swam but soft enough that it wouldn’t hurt her.
The first time Grace wore the artificial tail. She soon shook it off and let it sink in the bottom of the pool. Now, she is still learning to use the tail. Some days she wears it for an hour at a time, others not at all. “The tail isn’t
necessary for her to feel comfortable,” says Stone, “but it helps to keep that range of motion(動(dòng)作) and build muscles(肌肉).”
Now, the dolphin is about to get an even happier ending. This month, Grace will star in Dolphin Tale, a film that focus on her rescue and recovery. Her progress has inspired more than just a new movie. Many people travel from near and far to meet her. Seeing Grace swim with her man-made tail gives people so much courage.
小題1: When Grace first arrived at the Ocean Park, her trainer worried about her        .
A．physical buildB．potential ability
C．chance of survivalD．a(chǎn)daptation to the surroundings.
小題2:A man-made tail is created for Grace to   _.
A．let her recover faster B．make her comfortable
C．a(chǎn)djust her way of swimmingD．help her perform better tricks
小題3:The story of Grace inspires people to_      .
A．stick to their dreamsB．treat animals friendly

My parents were in a huge argument, and I was really upset about it. I didn’t know who I should talk with about how I was feeling. So I asked Mom to allow me to stay the night at my best friend’s house. Though I knew I wouldn’t tell her about my parents’ situation, I was looking forward to getting out of the house. I was in the middle of packing up my things when suddenly the power went out in the neighborhood. Mom came to tell me that I should stay with my grandpa until the power came back on.
I was really disappointed because I felt that we did not have much to talk about. But I knew he would be frightened alone in the dark. I went to his room and told him that I’d stay with him until the power was restored. He was quite happy and said, “Great opportunity(機(jī)會(huì))”
“ What is ?” I asked.
“ To talk, you and I,” he said. “To hold a private little meeting about what we’re going to do with your mom and dad, and what we’re going to do with ourselves now that we’re in the situation we are in.”
“But we can’t do anything about it, Grandpa,” I said, surprised that here was someone with whom I could share my feelings and someone who was in the same “boat” as I was.
And that’s how the most unbelievable friendship between my grandfather and me started. Sitting there in the dark, we talked about our feelings and fears of life—from how fast things change, to how they sometimes don’t change fast enough. That night, because the power went out, I found a new friend, with whom I could safely talk about all my fears and pains, whatever they may be.
Suddenly, the lights all came back on. “Well,” he said, “ I guess that means you’ll want to go now. I really like our talk. I hope the power will go out every few nights!”
