All the others 36  the pit .Seeing how  37  the pit was, they told the two frogs that they might be  38 dead .The two frogs  39  what the other frogs were saying and  40  to jump up out of the pit with all of their physical 41. The other frogs kept telling them to stop. In the end one of the frogs  42 trying , fell down and died. 43 , the second frog kept jumping as hard as she could despite the  44   remarks. Finally, with one giant leap, she 45  it out of the pit!
This amazing 46  was that the second frog was 47  and unable to hear what the others had been saying. She thought they had been 48  her on the whole time they were yelling!
The story above 49 us two lessons: Firstly ,there is 50  of life and death in the tongue. An encouraging word to someone who is 51  can lift them up and help them make it through the day. Secondly, a negative word to someone who is down can be  52  it takes to kill them. The power of words is great. Facing others’ criticism or laughter, we should turn a deaf 53  to it and have a  positive attitude. Thus we can reach our goals just as the second frog did .In one word, we need the  54  to guide us to the proper way , so as not to be blindly 55 by worldly opinion in difficult times.

試題分析:本文是一則寓言故事,講述了兩只同樣掉到深坑里的青蛙截然不同的命運。一只青蛙聽從其他青蛙的建議而放棄努力死于坑中,另一只青蛙卻因耳聾聽不到其他青蛙消極的言論而成功脫險。故事給我們的啟示是:言語有決定人生死的力量,當(dāng)我們身處困境時,不要受外界消極言論的影響。
小題1:A 動詞短語辨析。A 聚集,圍攏;B 傳播,四處走動;C 跳入;D 逃脫。從情理判斷,如果一個人掉到坑里,其他人應(yīng)該都圍攏過來,所以A選項正確。句意:其他青蛙都圍到坑邊上。
小題2:D形容詞辨析。A 危險的; B 寬的;C 狹窄的,狹隘的;D 深的,深深的。下文講青蛙要從坑里往外跳,所以其他青蛙應(yīng)該是看坑的深淺,所以用deep修飾 the pit 。正確選項是D。
小題3:D短語辨析。A 只要,和。。。一樣長;B 和。。。一樣好,除。。。外;C 一。。。就;D與。。。一樣,簡直是。從接下來的故事中其他青蛙勸這兩只青蛙放棄跳出來的做法和他們的言辭可知坑應(yīng)該很深,認(rèn)為這兩只青蛙跳不出來,所以掉坑里就和死了一樣。故D選項正確。句意:當(dāng)其他青蛙看到坑那么深的時候,他們告訴那兩只青蛙他們簡直就和死了一樣,沒希望逃出來了。
小題4:C動詞辨析。A 困惑;B容忍;C 忽視,不理睬;D 誤解。在下文中The other frogs kept telling them to stop.別的青蛙讓他們別白費勁了,可是這兩只青蛙卻仍然努力往外跳,由此判斷這兩只青蛙是沒有理會他們的建議,所以C選項正確。這兩只青蛙不理會他們說的話繼續(xù)拼著全身力氣往外跳。
小題5:B動詞辨析。A管理,設(shè)法做;B. 努力,嘗試;C.同意;D.承諾。manage to do 強調(diào)成功做到了;而try to do 是努力去做,不一定成功。從語境判斷此時青蛙是努力得往外跳,而不管成功與否。所以正確答案為B。
小題6:D名詞辨析。A. 精力,能源;B. 權(quán)力,力量;C. 武裝力量,外界的力;D.力氣。從常識可知從深坑里往外跳需要的是體力,力氣,所以D選項正確。句意:他們拼著全身力氣往外跳。
小題7:B動詞短語辨析。A.屈服,讓步;B. 放棄;C. 用完,耗盡  D. 用完,耗盡。從上下文可知這兩只青蛙使勁往外跳,可是聽著別的青蛙的話,一只青蛙不再使勁了,所以應(yīng)該是主動放棄了,故正確選項為B。
小題8:B 副詞辨析。A. 因此;B. 然而;C. 此外;D. 但是。從上下文可知第一只青蛙因為聽到別的青蛙的話而放棄了,但是第二只青蛙因為耳聾卻繼續(xù)往坑外跳,所以此處是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。B選項正確。
小題9:C形容詞辨析。A. 無辜的;B.積極活躍的;C. 消極的;D. 積極樂觀的。從文中The other frogs kept telling them to stop.可知其他青蛙應(yīng)該說的是消極的言語,所以C選項正確。
小題10:A動詞辨析。A. 制作,使得 B.轉(zhuǎn)向;C.離開;D. 工作。文中是指這只青蛙成功跳出深坑, make it 為固定短語,意思是成功做成某事。所以A選項正確。
小題11:D名詞辨析。A理由,原因;B.結(jié)果;C.因素;D.事實。后面敘述的是第二只青蛙聽不見別的青蛙的話而成功跳出深坑這件事,所以此處指的是這個讓人驚訝的事實。故D選項正確。
小題12:A形容詞辨析。A. 聾的;B. 聰明的;C. 殘疾的;D. 有信心的。從and unable to hear what the others had been saying可判斷這只青蛙是耳聾的,所以正確選項為A。
小題13:D動詞辨析。A. 強迫;B. 保持,保存;C. 安慰;D. 歡呼,喝彩。從上下文可判斷這只耳聾的青蛙一直是以為別的青蛙在為他們加油鼓勁,所以才成功跳了出來。cheer sb on 為某人加油,以喝彩聲鼓勵,故D為正確選項。
小題14:C動詞辨析。A給予;B.告訴;C. 教;D. 顯示,展示。從下文可判斷得知此處是在講故事給我們的啟示,give sb a lesson 意思是“教授。。。課”;teach sb a lesson 意思是“給某人的教訓(xùn)”所以C選項正確。
小題15:B名詞辨析A. 功能;B. 能力,力量;C.用法;D. 技能。從下文敘述的內(nèi)容以及提示句The power of words is great.可判斷得知此處是指語言有著決定人生死的力量。所以B選項正確。
小題16:A形容詞辨析。A.情緒低落的;B.高興的;激動的;C.可笑的;D.生氣的。從故事內(nèi)容可知青蛙是處于困境中所以情緒應(yīng)該是消沉的,而且下文a negative word to someone who is down也提示給我們正確選項應(yīng)該是A。
小題17:C 連接詞辨析。A. 哪個 B. 那個;C.什么;D. 誰。從句子結(jié)構(gòu)判斷此處是個表語從句,從句中缺少take的賓語,句型為it take sth to do 。that在表語從句中不做成分;who表示人;which強調(diào)要有選擇范圍,所以正確選項為C。
小題18:D名詞辨析。A. 方向,引導(dǎo);B. 態(tài)度;C.面孔;D. 耳朵。從上下文可知,作者告誡我們:面對別人的批評和嘲笑,我們應(yīng)該不加理睬,依然要保持樂觀態(tài)度。turn a deaf ear to 意思是“對。。。充耳不聞”,所以D為正確選項。
小題19:B名詞辨析。A. 支持;B.智慧;明智;C. 決心;D.知識。從上文可知面對困境,我們要保持自己的樂觀態(tài)度,不要受別人批評嘲笑的影響,所以需要智慧去引導(dǎo)我們,故正確答案是B。
小題20:D動詞辨析。A. 愚弄;B. 支持,支撐;   C.反對;       D. 引導(dǎo)。從上句we need …to guide us to the proper way判斷此處應(yīng)該是不要盲目地受世人觀念的引導(dǎo),所以D選項正確。

An old man lived with his family. The family would eat together nightly at the dinner table. But the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and failing sight made eating rather difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon, dropping to the floor. When he grasped his glass of milk, it often spilled clumsily(笨拙地) at the tablecloth.
With this happening almost every night, the son and daughter-in-law became annoyed with the mess.
“We must do something about grandfather,” said the son.
“I’ve had enough of his milk spilling, noisy eating and food on the floor,” the daughter-in-law agreed.
So the couple set a small table at the corner.
There, grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed their dinner at the dinner table. Since grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in wooden bowls. Sometimes when the family looked in grandfather’s direction, he had tears in his eyes as he ate alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp warnings when he dropped a fork or spilled food. The four-year-old watched it all in silence.
One evening, before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood pieces on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, “What are you making?” Just as sweetly, the boy replied, “Oh, I’m making a little bowl for you and mama to eat your food from when I grow up.” The four-year-old smiled and went back to work.
These words so struck the parents that they were speechless. Then tears streamed down their cheeks. Though no words were spoken, both knew what must be done.
小題1:Eating was difficult for the grandfather because ________.
A.his son and daughter-in-law didn’t like him
B.there wasn’t enough food for him
C.life was hard for the poor family
D.he was old and weak
小題2:The couple served the old man’s food in wooden bowls to ________.
A.show how sick they felt of the old man
B.make the old man’s food more enjoyable
C.prevent the old man from breaking more dishes
D.encourage their son to make more wooden bowls
小題3:What would the end of the story be like?
A.The couple gave their son a good beating.
B.No more milk was spilled by the old man.
C.The old man had every meal with the family.
D.The whole family started to use wooden bowls.

Perhaps the only test score that I remember is the 41. I was in high school. The test was the final for the class. It was a rather   36   test. I didn’t know how   37  I had done but I knew there were things on   38   that I didn’t know.
I remember   39  waiting for the result. When Mr. Bales   40  my paper on my desk, I was    41   . There in big   42   numbers, circled to draw attention, was my grade — 41! I   43   my paper so that others couldn’t see it. A 41 was not   44    that you wanted your classmates to see. Finally, Mr. Bales stood behind the desk and   45  the class. “The grades were not very good;    46  of you passed,” he announced. “ The highest grade in the class was a 41, so all of you failed.”
A 41. That was me. Suddenly my dismal (陰沉的) face didn’t look quite so bad. I had the highest grade. I felt a lot   47  . As soon as I got home, my mother asked me, “How did you do on your test?” “I made a 41,” I said. My mother’s   48   changed suddenly. “You failed.” “But I had the highest grade in the class!” I replied. “ I don’t    49   what everyone else had. You failed. It doesn’t matter if everyone else failed too; what matters is what you do,” my mother    50   answered.
For years, I thought that was a harsh (嚴(yán)厲的) judgment. My mother was always that   51   . It didn’t matter what the other kids did; it only mattered what I did and    52     I did it excellently.
We often don’t understand the wisdom of good parents until we ourselves stand   53   the parenting shoes. My mother’s philosophy(人生態(tài)度)has    54   me throughout life. The path of the crowd is wide but the path to pass the tests of life is   55   and there are very few people on it.

“All I could see was two sets of red eyes below me,” said Dave Gatty, an Australian farmer who spent seven days up a tree in remote bush land to escape crocodiles. Gatty, 52, said he was forced to take such drastic action after he accidentally went into a crocodile-infested area of Queensland. He only had two meat sandwiches to keep him going, as crocodiles moved beneath his tree each night until his rescue. Gatty said he decided it was safer to hold out for a rescue team than try to make a run for it. His problems began after he fell off his horse while out in the northern Australia outback. Dazed and bleeding, he climbed back on his horse and hoped it would lead him home. It was only when he regained his senses he realized that he had been taken into crocodile-infested area. “I had to get off the horse and I fell straight into a crocodile nest,” he told reporters. 
“That frightened me. I couldn’t go back, it was too far and too dangerous, so I headed to the nearest high ground and stayed there, hoping someone would come and find me before the crocs did.”
Gatty explained how each night two crocodiles would sit at the bottom of the tree staring at him. Although Gatty’s two sandwiches ran out after three days, he was able to get running water during the day and knew rescuers were looking for him as he could see helicopters in the air above his tree.
“If I hadn’t seen the crocs circling me, and if I hadn’t fallen into the croc nest, I would have made a push for it. But I knew the safest thing was for me to sit and wait,” he said. A chocolate bar, given to him by rescuers after being moved to safety by using a winch(卷揚機), “was like a gourmet (delicious)meal,” he said.
小題1:Gaddy felt _______ when he found himself trapped in the crocodile- infested area.
A.panicked but optimisticB.nervous and hopeless
C.upset and regretfulD.frightened but calm
小題2:Which of the following did not help Gatty survive the accident?
A.SandwichesB.Running water
C.ChocolatesD.Staying up in a tree
小題3:What’s the right order of the events related to the accident?
a. Gaddy climbed up onto his horse unconscious.
b. Gaddy climbed up a tree and stayed there.
c. Gaddy was moved by a winch to safety.
d. Gaddy fell off his horse accidentally.
e. Gaddy found himself in a crocodile-infested area.

“I don’t think I can do this any more.” “Yes, you can. You only have five more radiation treatments to go. ” I held my wife Becky close.
Ever since the breast cancer diagnosis (診斷), she had tried hard to be strong for the kids and for me.   When her diagnosis came, my first thought was there was no way I could lose my wife. The doctors assured us the cancer was discovered early so we were feeling positive.
Becky had received an operation and was recovering from it. After six weeks of radiation therapy(治療), she was facing her final five treatments. She was weak and tired, in low spirits. Seeing her suffering, I felt so helpless and powerless.
As soon as I was outside, long-held frustration and anger erupted in me like a volcano. I took a hammer and suddenly was swinging as hard as I could, beating heavily on the front porch(門廊). While doing so, I imagined I was beating my wife’s cancer. With all my strength, I destroyed the porch.
During the treatment, my wife had been very brave. She said she had it easy, but I don’t think it was easy for her.
Seeing the porch gone, Becky shook her head at the window. I came into the room, not knowing how she would react to what I had done.
“Becky, are you mad at me?” She looked at me in surprise. “For what?” I pointed at the gate. “For tearing down the porch.” She laughed. “Look how sunny this room is now. I love that it’s bright in here.”
“You comforted me in my darker hour, Vince. You’ve found a way to deal with your own frustration. By destroying the porch, you let the sunshine in.”
As I looked around the brightened room, I realized the light that filled the space was the light of hope that shone so bright after the darkness. We never did re-build the porch.
小題1:When the diagnosis came out, _______.
A.the author had little hope that his wife would survive
B.the author was determined to save his wife’s life
C.the author’s wife refused to receive radiation treatments
D.the author felt lucky that his wife’s disease was not serious
小題2:The author went outside to destroy the porch because _______.
A.he wanted to release his frustration
B.he was disappointed with his wife
C.he intended to let sunshine in
D.his wife didn’t like it at all
小題3:How did the author’s wife feel about him seeing the porch gone?
A.SympatheticB.Angry
C.UnderstandingD.Happy
小題4:What lesson can we learn from the passage?
A.Tragedy cannot separate loving couple
B.A day without sunshine is like night
C.True love is based on understanding
D.Nothing is impossible for a willing heart

As a boy growing up in India, I had longed to travel abroad. I used to listen to the stories my father would tell me about his stay in Canada and tours to Europe in the 1970s, with great interest.
My big moment finally came in the summer of 1998 when I was able to accompany my parents to Europe, where my father was to attend a meeting. We planned to travel to Belgium, Netherlands and West Germany.
I have clear memories even today of going to Mumbai airport at night all excited about finally going abroad. I had heard several great things about Lufthansa till then but now I finally got to experience them first hand, during the flight to Frankfurt. We flew business class and even today I can remember the excellent service by the Lufthansa crew (工作人員). The flight was really smooth and thoroughly enjoyable, even for someone like me, who is especially afraid of flying.
After spending almost two weeks in Europe, we took the Lufthansa airport express from Dusseldorf to Frankfurt airport, for our return flight. What a journey that was! All along the Rhine (萊茵河), it was simply an unforgettable experience.
