【解析】
本文为记叙文,文章主要介绍了Jim和May去宠物店买宠物狗,因为不能达成一致而比赛跑步,最终Jim赢得了比赛却没有得到想要的狗。
【1】句意:那是一家很小的宠物店,里面没有很多动物。
dollar美元;goods商品;animals动物;foods食物。根据前文“It was a very small pet store”及下文提到仅有两条宠物狗可知,这是一家很小的宠物店,所以里面没有很多动物。故选C。
【2】句意:商店老板史密斯先生在Jim和May进来时向他们打招呼。
smiled笑;talked谈论;shouted喊;entered进入。根据前文“Mr. Smith, greeted Jim and May”可知,Jim和May进入了这家宠物店。故选D。
【3】句意:所以我们只有两只可供挑选的狗。
from从;in在……里面;by通过;over在……上面。根据语境可知,他们只有两只可供挑选的狗。“choose from”从……中选择,符合语境。故选A。
【4】句意:May想要Teacup,但是Jim想要Buster。
unless除非;if如果;but但是;so因此。根据语境可知,May和Jim只能要一只狗,“May想要Teacup”和“Jim想要Buster”之间应是转折关系,用but连接。故选C。
【5】句意:他们走出去讨论。
quarrel争吵;struggle挣扎;discuss讨论;fight斗争。根据语境可知,Jim和May关于买哪只小狗的意见不一致,所以他们出去讨论,其它的选项不符合句意。故选C。
【6】句意:他们对要哪只狗意见不一致。
根据语意可知,Jim和May就买哪只狗意见不一样,agree on就……达成一致,固定短语。故选A。
【7】句意:May提议他们比赛跑步。
said说;thought认为;suggested建议;asked要求。根据后文,谁先跑回家,谁赢得比赛就可以选狗可知,此处是May提议他们比赛跑步。故选C。
【8】句意:当May低头向下看的时候,Jim率先跑了出去。
looked up 查阅;looked down向下看;set off出发;sat down坐下。根据前文“and then told May her shoelace was loose”可知,Jim告诉May她的鞋带松了,所以此处是May低头看自己的鞋带。故选B。
【9】句意:吉姆拼命跑,因为他真的很想要那只斗牛犬。
strangely奇怪地;hard努力地;harder更努力地;happily开心地。根据语境可知,Jim因为想要斗牛犬,所以他拼命地跑,故此处应为“努力地”。句中as…as像……一样,中间应为形容词或副词原级,故应为as hard as。故选B。
【10】句意:他虽然累但是很开心。
excited兴奋的;tired累的;surprised惊讶的;disappointed失望的。根据语境可知,Jim为了赢得比赛跑得非常快,所以当他到家的时候应该非常累。故选B。
【11】句意:他知道他赢了。
ruler统治者;brother兄弟;loser失败者;winner赢家。根据语境可知,Jim是第一个到家的,所以他赢得了比赛,故他知道自己是赢家。故选D。
【12】句意:她向Jim表示祝贺然后他们一起返回宠物店。
watched over监视;looked for寻找; returned to返回;broke into闯入。根据“when they arrived they only saw Teacup”可知,此处应是他们一起返回了宠物店。故选C。
【13】句意:史密斯先生给了他们一个解释。
lie谎言;explanation解释;suggestion建议;idea想法。根据“that a few minutes after May and Jim left, two boys walked in and bought the Bulldog”可知,当他们回到宠物店的时候发现Buster已经不见了,所以店主给了他们一个解释。故选B。
【14】句意:Jim看着May,她忍住了笑。
hold out伸出;hold on坚持;hold up举起;hold back控制,忍住。根据语境可知,此处应是May为了不让Jim伤心而努力忍住笑。故选D。

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
We can express thoughts and feelings and send sounds and pictures on our smart phones today. We also communicate by using programs like Skype and Face Time. We can't send tastes, smells or touch, of course. But scientists in Britain are trying to develop a way for smart phones to do just that.
Adrian David Cheok is a professor at City University in London. He wants people to experience communication using all of their senses. He said "In the real world, we can open up the glass, open the window. We can touch, we can taste, we can smell in the real world."
To give users a sense of taste, researchers designed two electrodes (电极)that are placed on the tongue. A chemical process creates different tastes through molecules (微粒)on the surface of the tongue. This chemical process sends electrical signals that convince the brain that a person is tasting something. They have already created sour, salty, sweet and bitter tastes.
"You put these two silver electrodes in your mouth, you put your tongue in between and then it stimulates electrically your tongue and you get a virtual taste perception in your brain."
A device(设备)called "Scentee" permits users to have the sense of smell. Scentee plugs into a smart phone and can spray tiny clouds of fragrances, including flowers, fruits and coffee. Professor Cheok says the person speaking can activate the device.
Scentee holds a container with about 100 different smells. The container must be replaced when all the scents(pleasant smells) run out.
(1)Where could the passage most probably be taken from?
A.A news story.
B.An advertisement.
C.A science fiction.
D.A science magazine.
(2)Which of the following is the right order according to the passage?
a. Electrical signals are sent to brain.
b. Two electrodes are placed on the tongue.
c. The brain is convinced that a person is tasting something.
d. Different tastes are created through molecules on the surface of the tongue.
A.a-b-c-d
B.b-d-a-c
C.c-a-d-b
D.b-d-c-a
(3)What will be most probably talked about in the next paragraph?
A.The bright future of the smart phones.
B.How the sense of touch will be achieved.
C.The different attitudes towards the smart phones.
D.The advantages of the smart phones with new functions.

Suppose you find a bright yellow bike on a street corner in the city. You hop on(跨上)it and r away. But wait—isn't this stealing? No, it isn't. No one shouts, “Stop! Thief!” That is bthis free ride is just fine with the city.
You can find hundreds of free yellow bikes in some US cities. The idea began in Portland, Oregon, in 1994. People saw a need for free transportation, and they wanted to help cpollution. So, to get citizens(市民) o of their cars and onto pollution-free bikes, they s the Yellow Bike Project.
The public bikes are painted bright yellow and placed all o the city. People can hop on the yellow bike and ride to run errands(短程差事), to work o to school. Then, they leave the bike for the n rider. There have been times when bikes have been stolen, but most people f the rules, because they think it is not wise to steal the bike that's already free.
Portland's i was quickly loved by a lot of people. Within two years of its starts, similar programs were set up in cities in six other states.

【题目】 My mother is a teacher, and I grew up with the challenges a teacher faces. I often asked her,” Why do you teach? What keeps you teaching? "The answer was always the same." There is always that one child, that one moment that is worth it.”
Now, I am a teacher, too. But different from my mother, I teach students challenging activities outdoors. And when my mother asked me the similar questions, my answer was, "It's that one child, that one special moment.”
One of those moments happened recently. I was working with a group of girls in a four-week programme. Everything went on well through the "Team" events and we were moving on to a "High" one called the Wire(钢索)Walk. In the Wire Walk, each girl had to climb up the pegs(木桩)in a tree to a wire, 8 meters high, and then walk across it. Of course, everything was safe for sure. When I asked who would try, a few girls raised their hands, and they finished the Wire Walk with little difficulty.
But when it was Susie’s turn, it seemed that she didn’t really want to. I asked Susie if she was ready. She Answered softly, “I suppose.”
Now, Susie was at the foot of the tree. She started to make the long reach for the first peg. The other girls cheered for her. Then I found Susie was becoming nervous with every step. I realized she would not go much further.
Susie was halfway up. Then she stopped and held the tree tight, looking very afraid. Her eyes were closed. With her face against the tree, she cried, “I can’t.”
The other girls sat in silence. I talked quietly to Susie, trying to relax her. I talked for a long time till I ran out of words.
“I will still be your friend no matter what, Susie!" Mary broke the silence.
To my surprise, Susie lifted her head and looked up to the wire. Then she turned to look down at Mary and smiled. Mary smiled back.
Finally, Susie made it all the way across that wire. When she returned to the ground, the first hug she looked for was from Mary. We all cheered.
Moments like this keep me doing what I do. The young hearts continue to fill me with courage.
【1】Susie stopped halfway up to the wire because ________.
A.the teacher asked her to do it.B.something was wrong with it
C.she was too afraid to move onD.it was too high for her to reach
【2】Mary broke the silence in order to ________.
A.encourage SusieB.relax the writerC.try again herselfD.draw Susie’s attention
【3】From the story of Susie and Mary, we can learn that ________.
A.a good method plays an important role in teachingB.a word of encouragement matters a lot
C.outdoor activities bring people closer than everD.helping others is helping ourselves
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.That One MomentB.The Wire WalkC.Love and CourageD.The Young Hearts

If someone says to you: “give me five”, do not search your pocket to get five yuan! It will make others laugh! The person's not asking for your money, but your fingers.
In the US, "give me five" or "give me the high five" is a popular gesture (动作). You can see it often in films or on TV. It means the clapping (拍) of each other's raised right hands together.
