(1)Daniel(丹尼尔)  was always making excuses for forgetting to do things. His usual excuse was: “I was too busy.” or “I didn’t have time.”
Daniel’s parents were worried about him. “He shouldn’t make so many excuses.” his father said. “No one will believe him.”
(2) “I don’t know what we can do.” his mother said.
“I have an idea” his father said. “If this doesn’t work, nothing will.”
The next day was Daniel’s birthday. He wanted to get exciting presents from his parents. But all day they only said “Good morning, Daniel. Hurry, or you will be late for school.” There were no presents, not even a card. He was really sorry.
“Never mind.” he thought. “There is a surprising present for me after school.” But there wasn’t. Sadly he said to his parents at dinner, (3) ________(今天是我的生日).”
“Oh,” his father said. “So it is. I forgot.”
“So did I.” his mother said.
“How could you forget?” “We have a really good excuse for forgetting your birthday, Daniel. We didn’t remember your birthday because we were too busy.”
Poor Daniel! He never had an excuse for not doing something again.
小题1:请把(1)处译成汉语。 _________________________________________________________。

小题2:to do
小题3:Today is my birthday.
Did Daniel get his birthday present at last?
小题4:No, he didn’t.   
小题5:写出符合题意的一条即可。

试题分析:这篇短文中丹尼尔总是找各种理由不做任何事情,最后父母以同样的方式给了他一个深刻的教训.
小题1:短语make excuses for为……找借口。注意for是介词,后面接名词或者动名词作宾语。
小题2:英语中疑问词+不定式可以起到相当于宾语从句的作用,故填to do。
小题3:略
小题4:根据短文描述,可知丹尼尔最终没有得到生日礼物。故答:No, he didn’t.   
小题5:本题主要是谈论我们从本文中得到的教训,故答案不唯一,符合题意即可。注意语法正确。
点评:此类题型考查英语知识的综合运用,各小题类型比较复杂,涉及补全句子,翻译及阅读理解等题型,答题中要注意运用这些题型的答题技巧。答题前一定要弄懂全文,然后再动手解答问题。答题过程中,注意联系学过的句式,短语,结合短文内容,完成各小题的解答。

Hello, I’m Vladislav. For my summer holidays, I usually stay in a country house near Moscow.
Last summer, my dad’s brother gave me a present — a blue bike. At that time I couldn’t ride it very well.
One day I got into an accident. But don’t worry, everything was OK, just some “little” injuries.
That day, I tried to ride my bike and suddenly it began to move very fast. I couldn’t stop the bike. So I fell into a ditch (沟) full of dirty water. When I thought I had had enough bad luck, a girl walked by. She saw the bike and me. I quickly stood up.
“Are you fishing here?” she asked.
“Yes,” I answered. Then I said, “I’m making fish soup for dinner. Would you like to come?” To my surprise, she agreed.
After that we became friends. Now, we often send each other e-mails. She knows that I’m studying in China and she asks me questions about Chinese culture. I tell her my stories of China, and she says she wants to visit China, too. She even plans to study Chinese.

Prana, our beautiful dog whose name means ‘breath of life’, isn’t with us any more. But she brought such joy and love that we still miss her.
There are so many wonderful stories about the love in this dog, but my favorite is this one.
It was an autumn day in Minnesota, but the weather didn’t know the difference between autumn and winter. Unexpectedly, we were hit with a big snow fall for which no one was prepared.
We have two apple trees in our backyard. Prana loved apples. When she went outside, she’d take hold of an apple, put it far back in her mouth, and sneak into the house to save for eating later. The apples had been on the ground and were often dirty so I wasn’t always happy that Prana had brought them into the house. Feeling my displeasure, she would turn her head so I wouldn’t see her hidden treasure.
On the day that it snowed too early in the season, Prana went outside and I watched her from the window. I noticed that she was madly digging holes and brought the apples to the surface so they could be seen above the snow. I wondered why she was doing this. She seemed to be completely busy with some kind of important task to dig up as many apples as possible during her yard time.
When I called her back into the house, she had her usual one apple in her mouth. About five minutes later, I looked outside. The yard was completely covered with birds. Prana had dug up all those apples for her bird friends to eat. She knew that they wouldn’t have stored enough food to live through such an early winter.
小题1:The story about the dog happened _______.
A.in autumnB.in winterC.in springD.in summer
小题2:What does the underlined phrase sneak into mean in the fourth paragraph?
A.enter quicklyB.enter secretlyC.enter happilyD.enter slowly
小题3:Prana was busy digging up the apples in the snow because________.
A.she liked digging holes and eating apples
B.she was always saving the apples for eating later
C.she wanted to leave the apples to her bird friends
D.she loves playing with snow
小题4:From the story we can learn that______.
A.Prana is helpful to the writer
B.Prana is devoted to the writer
C.Prana is not only beautiful but also joyful
D.Prana is especially loving and thoughtful

Shopping used to mean actually going to shops, but nowadays, you can shop without even leaving your house. Just sit in front of your computer, click your mouse and your things will be sent to your house in a couple of days.
November 11th is a big day for people who like shopping online. On that day last year, many online stores offered a big discount and free delivery service. The biggest online shopping sites in China,Taobao.com and Tmall.com ,sold things worth 19.1 billion yuan in total.
“Goods online are often much cheaper. It also saves me a lot of time. And we often have more goods on many online stores than in shopping malls,” Wang Xin, an online shopping lover in Beijing, said to China Daily. She stayed up very late for a lot of cheap goods online. She spent several thousand that day.
Another big advantage of online shopping is that it helps people get things from different cities, even different countries, with ease. “I like eating duck neck very much and I often buy it on Taobao from shops in Wuhan. It’s much more delicious than what our local (当地的) stores sell, but cheaper,” said Zang Xin, a girl in Yangzhou.
While enjoying online shopping, many people also have worries, especially for middle school student buyers. Young students are easily attracted by advertisements on the Internet and buy things they don’t need.
“Middle school students should pay more attention to their study. Searching for things wastes their time,” said Jing Chunling, an education expert. “Besides, online shop owners have no idea of the ages of their buyers. Anyone can easily buy things that they want to. Some of goods are even bad for young students such as cigarettes and wine.”
小题1:Nowadays many people like shopping online instead of _________.
A.clicking their mouseB.paying money
C.sitting in front of their computersD.going to shops
小题2:What does the underlined phrase “with ease” mean?
A.轻松地B.困难地C.便宜地D.昂贵地
