11.I was waiting to cross on a typically busy road of New York City when a young lady approached from my right,pushing a baby stroller(嬰兒車) and saying something softly over her lovely child.Oh,no,she's going to get hit.Yet I paused for a few seconds before reaching out to her.In my mind.I could see it all:the yellow taxi knocking into them heavily,the woman losing hold of the stroller,the stroller and baby falling in different directions.
"What are you doing?"a man said.His voice brought me back to reality:the man had come out of nowhere,grabbed the woman's arm and dragged her back greatly just in time to avoid the speeding taxi.The woman was shocked.She had been unaware of her near death.
I saw this man become a hero for the day; he saved two lives.He certainly wasn't like Superman or any other comic-book hero.I,however,the silent stranger who just stood there,saw everything and did nothing.Why didn't I do anything immediately?Why did I wait for five seconds?But then I realized that a part of it was…I was afraid.Afraid that I could have been wrong about my prediction:What if she got annoyed by my action?What if I looked like a fool?
Years later,I could still see that scene fresh in my mind.I now think about our society,and why I have been raised.We look around the subway,noticing empty seats between people,and all those who choose to stand for 15minutes rather than sit next to strangers.Kids grow up with the warning that if they talk to strangers,they will end up getting kidnapped(綁架) and never be seen again.

28.Why was the young lady nearly hit by the taxi?C
A.She was busy saying hello to the author.
B.She was hurrying across the crowded road.
C.She was concentrating on pleasing her baby.
D.She was reaching out to shake hands with the author.
29.We can infer that the author feltB.
A.grateful to the man for his timely warning.
B.guilty for not offering help at the first time.
C.hateful to the man for his bad behavior.
D.happy for the woman and her baby being saved timely.
30.Why didn't the author take immediate action?A
A.She suffered from some mental struggles.
B.She was well aware of her limited abilities.
C.She couldn't believe it was a real accident.
D.She was unable to reach for the lady and her kid.
31.The author‘s purpose of writing the passage is to show thatC.
A.we are supposed to be aware of our safety.
B.we should reflect on our previous behavior.
C.we need to change our traditional thoughts.
D.we must make some contributions to the society.

分析 本文作者描述了在路上遇到的一件事情,一對母子被一個陌生人挽救,而自己做了旁觀者,同時引起了對于生活的思考的故事.

解答 28.C推理判斷題.根據(jù)句子pushing a baby stroller(嬰兒車) and saying something softly over her lovely child.推著嬰兒車,輕聲地和她可愛的孩子說這話.可以推斷出這位媽媽的注意力不在路上而在孩子上,所以答案選C.
29.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)句子I,however,the silent stranger who just stood there,saw everything and did nothing.Why didn't I do anything immediately?Why did I wait for five seconds?然而,我只是站在那里,看到一切,什么也沒做的沉默的陌生人,兩個疑問句實際上是對自己行為的譴責(zé),可以推測出作者對于自己的所做是感到內(nèi)疚的,guilty"內(nèi)疚的".遺憾 憎恨以及高興都不符合.所以答案選B.
30.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)句子But then I realized that a part of it was…I was afraid但后來我意識到,…我害怕What if she got annoyed by my action?What if I looked like a fool?如果她對我的行為感到生氣怎么辦?如果我看起來像個傻瓜怎么辦?可見思想斗爭很厲害,所以答案選A.
31.C 寫作目的題.本文作者用自己的一個親身經(jīng)歷,告訴我們不要和陌生人說話.孩子成長的警告,如果他們和陌生人說話,他們最終會被綁架,不會再見.這種傳統(tǒng)觀念是應(yīng)該改變的.所以答案選C.

點(diǎn)評 閱讀理解題測試考生在閱讀基礎(chǔ)上的邏輯推理能力,要求考生根據(jù)文章所述事件的邏輯關(guān)系,對未說明的趨勢或結(jié)局作出合理的推斷;或根據(jù)作者所闡述的觀點(diǎn)理論,對文章未涉及的現(xiàn)象、事例給以解釋.考生首先要仔細(xì)閱讀短文,完整了解信息,準(zhǔn)確把握作者觀點(diǎn).

19.Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse?according to the doctors.I think there are a number of reassons for this.
Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy,fatty foods,such as fried chicken and ice cream,at low prices.This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves.If there were fewer of these restaurants,then probably children would buy less take-away food.
There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight.I agree with this,because good eating habits begin early in life,long before good eating habits begin early in life,long before children start to visit fast food shops.If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food,or are always allowed to choose what they eat,they will go for sweet and salty foods every time,and this will carry on throughout their lives.
There is a third reason for this situation.Children these days take very little exercise.They do not walk to school.When they get home,they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games.Not only is this an unhealthy pastime(消遣),it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food.What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.
The above are the main reasons for this problem,and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active,as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.

21.According to the passage,what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?B
A.Those who often do sports.
B.Those who often watch television.
C.Those who often have meals at home.
D.Those who often walk to school.
22.The author thinks that children are becoming overweight becauseD.
A.they can't choose what to eat
B.they are too busy to go out and play
C.their parents often cook meals for them
D.there are too many fast food shops around
23.The underlined word"steering"in the last sentence most probably means"B".
A.forcing  B.guiding  C.driving  D.moving
24.The main purpose of the passage is toC.
A.tell a story  B.provide facts  C.give advice  D.compare opinions.

Emma Morano says one of her secrets to living long is eating at least two uncooked eggs every day.Her doctor credits Morano's long life to her unusual diet,her genes (基因) and positive outlook on life.

20.There is a lot to learn about the creations of Beatrix Potter--not only is she the author and illustrator of one of the world's most famous children's books,The Tale of Peter Rabbit,but also a pioneering conservationist with the spirit of a scientist.
Potter grew up the daughter of a wealthy Victorian family,but along with her brother filled an entire floor of their large house in London with"all sorts of animals,"said Anne Lundin,a retired professor for the UW-Madison School of Library Studies.
As an adult,"She was a frustrated botanical illustrator and scientist.That field was not open to her because she was female,"Lundin said.Potter was urged to turn the charming illustrations and stories she wrote in letters to children into books.She wrote 23 in all---a body of work that has inspired plays,ballets,films and an astonishing array of merchandise.
"Peter Rabbit is probably the most famous children's book in the world,which was published 113 years ago and has really stood the test of time.It's been translated into 36languages.The parents and grandparents will share it with the next generation."said Lundin.
Potter also made a mark on the world through her land conservation."In many ways,she was like Peter Rabbit,venturing into a world of adventure and risk.She withdrew from London as soon as she started making some money on her books to the Lake District and became an extremely important farmer and conservationist.She preserved and passed on 15 farms and over 4,000 acres,which was given back to the country as gifts in the 20th century,"said Lundin.
Even though she was born 150 years ago,she was amazingly modern---her embracing of the natural world,commented Jennifer Blatchley Smith,an artistic director of the show Peter Rabbit Tales to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Potter's birth.

24.What influenced Beatrix Potter to write The Tale of Peter Rabbit successfully?A

B.Her specialty in animated pictures.
C.Her spirit of being a botanical scientist.
D.Her interest in animals in childhood alone.
25.What does the word"frustrated"in the third paragraph mean?A
A.disappointed.
B.devoted.
C.motivated.
D.inspired.
26.How do you think she made an impact on the world?C
A.By having her 23 books in all completed.
B.By introducing the image of Peter Rabbit.
C.By being an artistic director and farmer.

1.About three decades ago,China was known as the"Bicycle Kingdom".But the two-wheeled approach of transport's popularity began to fade,with many bikes soon replaced by their fuel-powered competitors.
But recent months have seen a repopulality of the humble bike across China,with an increasing number of people choosing cycling instead of driving to schools,to workplaces or to do sightseeing.The introduction of bike-sharing schemes,pioneered by start-up compan like Ofo and Mobike,has brought the trend to a new level.According to data shown by iResearch Consulting Group,the first week of this year saw 5.85million active users of Mobike while Ofo had 1.4million active users.
People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphone.The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user.They're popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the"last mile"problem,which refers to the final leg of a person's journey.
However,the schemes have also led to problems such as illegal parking,damage on purpose and theft.To deal with these problems,the company came up with the idea of encouraging people to return the bikes to stations by rewarding free time or their next rides.

9.Why did the two-wheeled approach of transport become less poular?D
A.Because China is no longer a bicycle kingdom.
B.Because cycling is not convenient.
C.Because fuel-powered competitors were replaced by riding.
D.Because mostly driving took the place of cycling.
10.What can we learn from the passage?C
A.The bike's popularity began to fade.
B.Only Ofo and Mobike creaed the trend to a new level of using bikes.
C.The shared bikes offer a useful approach to the final leg problem.
D.The company rewarded some money and free time to the users.
11.What is the best title to this passage?A
A.the new mode of humble bikes
B.the development of humble bikes
C.the advantages of humble bikes
D.the issue of humble bikes.
