【解析】

本文是说明文。文章介绍了合作居住在美国开始流行起来以及这种生活方式的特点。

1

考查代词。句意:在许多国家,背景不同的家庭一起居住是很寻常的一件事情。It is+形容词+for sb+to do sth,这里是it做形式主语,真正的主语是不定式结构to live together in the shared space。故填it

2

考查副词。句意:但是在美国,人们还是认为这种生活方式很奇怪。前一句说,在其他国家是not unusual的一件事情,后一句说在美国是strange。前后句意有转折。置于句首首字母大写。故填However

3

考查非谓语动词。句意:但是这种叫合作居住的居住方式也开始在美国流行起来。分析句子结构可知,空缺处作定语修饰housinghousing和动词call成被动关系,所以要用过去分词形式,故填called

4

考查名词。句意:但是这种叫合作居住的居住方式也开始在美国流行起来。分析句子结构可知,空缺处做谓语gaining的宾语,所以要用popular的名词形式作宾语。gain popularity表示“开始受欢迎”。故填popularity

5

考查冠词。句意:对许多人来说,这种生活方式是忙碌的现代生活方式的一种解脱。relief作释怀、释放时是不可数名词或单数可数名词,本句表示“一种解脱”,所以这里空格处可以加不定冠词。relief发音以辅音音素开头。故填a

6

考查副词。句意:一个合作居住社区拥有私有的房屋和可共享的土地。分析句子结构可知,空格处在修饰owned,我们用副词来修饰形容词,故填privately

7

考查动词时态和语态。句意:目前为止,已经建成了25个合作居住社区。so far表示到目前为止,指主句动作从过去开始发生一直到现在,所以要用现在完成时。动词build和主语communities成被动关系,所以要用被动语态。即要用动词现在完成时被动语态。故填have been built

8

考查定语从句的关系代词。句意:合作居住社区就是居民一起购物、烹饪以及吃饭的地方。分析句子结构可知,先行词为a place,先行词在后面的定语从句中做状语。故填where

9

考查介词。句意:孩子们也有了玩伴来一起玩。play with…为固定表达,表示“和某人一起玩耍”,故填with

10

考查形容词比较级。句意:居民们还说在合作居住社区生活要比住附近的公寓更加省钱。空缺后有比较级标志词than出现,than后面提到了比较的对象nearby apartment,所以这里要用比较级形式表示住合作住宅更省钱。故填less

Hawaii possesses the unique scenery of islands, but pollution takes away all the 1(beautiful) of the beaches here. I hate to go to the beaches on sunny weekends and see rubbish bags lying on the sand, cigarette butts(烟头) 2(bury) in the sand, and soda cans floating in the ocean.

【题目】 Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg, a distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left, and I became increasingly impatient.

At one point along an open road, I came to a crossing with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now, but as I drove near the light, it turned red and I made a stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of car lamps, but there I sat, waiting for the light to change, the only human being for at least a mile at any direction.

I started wondering why I refused to run the light. I was not afraid of being caught, because there was clearly no policeman around, and there certainly would have been no danger in going thorough it.

Much later that night, the question of why I’d stopped for that light came back to me. I think I stopped because it’s part of a contract (契约) we all have with each other. It’s not only the law, but it’s an agreement we have, and we trust each other to honor it: we don’t go through red lights.

Trust is our first inclination (倾向). Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us. The whole construction of our society depends on mutual (互相) trust, not distrust.We do what we say we’ll do; we show up when we say we’ll show up;and we pay when we say we’ll pay. We trust each other in these matters, and we’re angry or disappointed with the person or organization that breaks the trust we have in them.

1Why did the author feel impatient while driving?

A.He came across too many traffic lights.B.He got tired of driving too long.

C.He was lonely on the road.D.He was slowed down by a truck.

2What was the author’s immediate action when the traffic light turned red?

A.Stopping still.B.Driving through it.

C.Looking around for other cars.D.Checking out for traffic police.

3The event made the author strongly believe that ________.

A.traffic rules may be unnecessary

B.doubting others is human nature

C.patience is important to drivers

D.a society needs mutual trust

4Why was the author proud of himself?

A.He kept his promise.

B.He held back his anger.

C.He made a right decision---not running the light.

D.He followed his inclination---running the light.

【题目】 With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9:00 am Monday morning lecture, it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes; it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pajama’s(睡衣). Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.

All human beings possess a body clock. Along with other alerting systems, this governs the sleep/wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour. Typically, the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents, which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings. This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the “night owl” schedule of sleep.

This is opposed to the “early bird” schedule, and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight. Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings. Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night. Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be classified as “night owls” and only 10 percent can be classified as “early birds” ------ the other 70 percent are in the middle. Although this is clearly not true for all students, for the ones who are true night owls, this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.

1What does the author stress in Paragraph 1?

A.Many students are absent from class.

B.Students are very tired on Monday mornings.

C.Students do not adjust their sleep patterns well.

D.Students are not well prepared for class on Mondays.

2Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2?

A.Most students prefer to get up late in the morning.

B.Students don’t sleep well because of alerting systems.

C.One’s body clock governs the sleep/wake cycle independently.

D.Adolescents’ delayed sleep/wake cycle isn’t the preferred pattern.

3Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “classified”?

A.CriticizedB.GroupedC.OrganizedD.Named

4What does the text mainly talk about?

A.Functions of the body clock.

B.The “night owl” phenomenon.

C.Human beings’ sleep behaviour.

D.The school schedule of “early birds”.
