【题目】阅读下面短文,按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求,在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。
A poor young man went to Paris, (expect) that his father's friend could help him find a business for living.
“Are you (well ) at maths?” his father's friend asked him.
The young man shook his head.
“How is your history?” “What your law(法律)?”
The young man lowered his head (sad).
his father's friend asked again and again, the young man could shake his head. He (him) couldn't find out any advantages.
“Then write down your address first.”
The young man wrote his address and turned to leave, but he was stopped by his father's friend. “Your name is (write) very beautifully, which is your advantage. You shouldn't satisfy yourself with finding a job for living.”
Many (year) later, the young man wrote the classical works that were well-known in the world. He was Alexandra Dumas(大仲马), a famous French writer in the 18th century.
In the world, there are many ordinary persons all have many small advantages, but they can't find them. In fact, there is gold mine(矿井) in every ordinary life. If you are willing to dig, you will dig out treasures that surprise yourself.

【答案】expecting;good;about;sadly;Although/Though;himself;written;years;who/that;a
【解析】这篇短文是介绍著名法国作家大仲马的故事,开始他到父亲的朋友哪去找工作,结果在问过是否擅长数学,历史,法律后,他的回答都是摇头。在感觉很伤心时,父亲的朋友让他写下地址后,发现他的字很漂亮,告诉他也有优点,后来他写了很多部优秀的作品,成为全世界著名的作家。最后总结,每一个人都有优点,只是没有发现他们。

(1)expecting 句意:一个贫穷的年轻人去巴黎,期待他父亲的朋友能帮助他找到谋生的生意。本题考查现在分词做伴随状语,故填expecting。Expect是期待的意思。

(2)good 根据固定短语be good at 在擅长于……。句意:问他你擅长数学吗?故填good。

(3)about联系前文,你的历史如何?关于你的法律呢?因此用短语:how about?来询问。故填about。

(4)sadly 句意:这个年青年人伤心的低下头。联系前文,父亲的朋友问了几个问题都没有回答上来,当时的心情一定很伤心。根据副词修饰动词。故填sadly。

(5)Although/Though 句意:尽管他父亲一次又一次的问,这个年轻的男人只能摇头。本题考查Although/Though引导的让步状语从句。结合语境,故答案填Although/Though。

(6)himself句意:他自己不能找到任何的优势。本题考查反身代词。故填himself。

(7)written 句意:我们的名字被写的很漂亮,这是你的优势。本题考查被动语态。Be done的结构。故填written。

(8)years句意:一些年之后,从选项中分析只有几年之后。根据many+可数名词的复数。故填years。

(9)who/that 句意:在世界上,有很多普通人都有很多小的优点。本题考查定语从句,先行词是人,故用who或that引导。根据题意故填who/that。

(10)a 句意:事实上,每一个平凡的生活中都一个金矿。如果你愿意把挖掘,你会发现自己惊喜的宝藏。根据题意故填a。

【题目】根据短文内容,选择最佳答案。Do as the Romans Do
The customs in different countries are rather different. If I have dinner with a Chinese host, he always puts more food onto my plates as soon as I have emptied it. That often discomforts me greatly. I have to eat the food even if I don't want to, because it is considered bad manners in the West to leave one's food on the plate. I have already noticed that when a Chinese sits at an American's dinner party, he very often refuses the offer of food or drink though he is in fact still hungry or thirsty. This might be good manners in China, but it is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or insist on his accepting something. Americans have a direct way of speaking. If they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say, “No, thanks.” When an American is fed with beer by the host, for example, he might say, “No, thanks. I'll take some diet, Pepsi-Cola(百事可乐)if you have it. ”That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United States, you had better remember the famous saying: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
(1)From the passage, we can know that the Chinese are usually ________ to the guests.
A.very hot
B.rude
C.impolite
D.cold
(2)When a foreigner has dinner with a Chinese host, he often feels _______.
A.pleasant
B.uncomfortable
C.satisfied
D.happy
(3)Why does a Chinese often refuse the offer of food or drink at a dinner party?
A.He has had enough.
B.He is shy.
C.He is afraid that others will laugh at him.
D.He thinks it's polite to do that.
(4)When an American wants something to eat or drink at a dinner, he will _______.
A.ask for it boldly
B.refuse the offer
C.ask for it directly
D.express himself indirectly
(5)“When in Rome, do as the Romans do “means “________”.
A.When you got to Rome, you should act as the Romans do
B.When you stay in Rome, you should do as the Romans do
C.When you are in a new country, you should do as the locals do
D.Romans can be an example for you

【题目】阅读下列短文,根据短文信息完成文后表格。在标有题号的横线上,写出空缺处所填单词的 正确形式。

Hi! My name is Robin. I live in a town in the east of Shanghai. Over the last twenty years, great changes have taken place here.

In the past, my hometown was only a small village. There were no tall buildings. But now more and more tall buildings appear and the roads get wider. My father used to work in a small post office. We kept in touch with each other mainly by sending letters. Now we can use telephones, mobile phones, the Internet to contact each other. The world becomes smaller and smaller.

We can find our life more comfortable. We live in big flats. We enjoy milk, vegetables, fruit and meat for meals. We can also enjoy wonderful films and listen to music with MP5 players or mobile phones. In the past, we couldn’t enjoy life like this.

On the other hand, pollution has become a serious problem in our daily life. In the past, there were not many factories. So the water was clean and the air was fresh. However, the water and the air aren’t clean any more, because too many factories have polluted them. The government has taken action to reduce the pollution. Now things have been better.

I am sure my hometown will be more and more beautiful.

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
One day a man found a cocoon(蚕) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly, a small opening appeared and the butterfly made its great effort(努力) to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.(那个蛹好象忘记了它该怎样做, 也好象停止了挣扎).
So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly would come out easily. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.
The man was in his kindness, but he didn't understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid(液体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then would be ready for flying. It must have a hard struggle(拼搏) to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been, we could never fly.
(1)What was the butterfly doing at the beginning of the story?
A.It was trying to make a cocoon for it self.
B.It was crawling around quietly on the ground.
C.It was flying among the trees in the forest.
D.It was struggling to get out of its cocoon.
(2)The man cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon in order to __________.
A.take the butterfly home
B.help the butterfly come out easily
C.kill the butterfly
D.stop the butterfly growing bigger
(3)What do you think of the man?
A.Patient but cruel
B.Careful and wise
C.Kind but unwise
D.Brave and funny
(4)What does the last paragraph (段落) tell us?
A.Struggles are sometimes necessary in our life.
B.Nothing is difficult if we put our heart into it.
C.Every good deed will come back with good result.
D.The greatest happiness in the world is to help others.
(5)What is the best title of the story?
A.The Love for the Cocoon.
B.The Joy of Helping Each Other.
C.The Lesson of the Cocoon.
D.The Expectation (期待) for the Butterfly.
