【解析】

试题分析:文章大意:本文主要叙述一位小姑娘梦想成真,感知幸福的故事。小姑娘梦想住在一处好房子里,人们都在寻梦,其实幸福就在自己的不远处,甚至就在自己的眼底下,而自己却浑然不知。

1.句中的usually表示常态或习惯性动作,根据语境这里应该表示小女孩的个人习惯,即通常她会在那个小花园里玩耍,would意为“会,将会(表示按习惯可能会出现的情况)”,故答案为C。

2.主句意思是她向往住在那栋漂亮的房子里,从句意思是她爱她的父母和家,可见主从句之间是让步关系,所以选Although。选B。

3.上句中的desired“渴望”对本空具有提示作用,且下句提到整天 3 关于住在那儿是多么的美妙和令人兴奋,所以选择dreamed,dream about doing sth.意为“梦想做……”,故答案为A。

4.本句还原成正常语序应该是: 4 must feel how wonderful and exciting to live there。可知must feel缺少主语,而分析句意可知,feel wonderful and exciting(exciting只用来修饰事物)的应该是to live there,可见此处真正的主语是to live there,而空格处单词只是形式主语,能作形式主语的只有it。选C。

5.different意为“不同的;各式各样的”;scientific意为“科学的;有系统的”;musical意为“音乐的”;basic意为“基本的”。下文小女孩的妈妈允许她在家附近骑自行车了,按常理推测,此处是说小女孩到了已经具备一些基本的(basic)技能和识别力的年纪,故选择D。

6.第1段提到小女孩渴望的心情,下句说她母亲最终同意(finally allowed)她可以去,可见此处是说小女孩请求妈妈让她做某事,begged意为“恳求”,符合文意,故答案为A。

7.下句提到她妈妈让她在房子附近(keeping close to the house),不要走太远,说明这里表达的是去花园外面(outside)骑车,故答案为B。

8.insist on意为“坚持”;rely on意为“依赖,依靠”;argue about意为“争论,辩论”;wonder about“想知道;对……感到奇怪”。上句提到妈妈答应了小女孩的要求,后面妈妈又补充说不要远离自家的房子,辨析所给的选项insisting on符合语境,表达了母亲对小女孩的要求,故答案为A。

9.上文的“a bike ride”,对本空有提示作用,以及本段末句提到她骑车(rode)去了金色房子那里,句意为她妈妈要求她不要骑(riding)太远,故答案为C。

10.madly意为“发疯似地;疯狂地”;rapidly意为“很快地,迅速地”;exactly“确切地”;possibly“可能地”。上文提到小女孩一直很喜欢对面山上的那所房子,因此当得到妈妈同意后她确切地(exactly)知道自己要去哪里,故答案为C。

11.文章首段提到小女孩住在山上(on a hill),所以这里是骑车下山(down the hill),然后穿过山谷,故答案为B。

12.下段首句提到她下车,然后将自行车靠在门柱上(the gate post),可以推知小姑娘是骑车到金色房子的门口(gate),故答案为D。

13.until意为“到……为止;直到……才”;as“由于;当……时候”;while意为“在……期间;”;because意为“因为”。所填词表示主从句间的逻辑关系,而从句子意思上看,主从句间明显为时间关系,需要引导时间状语从句的词,while引导时间状语从句时,谓语动词应该是延续性的,而got off her bike为瞬间动词,所以否定C选项,as符合语法和语义要求,故为答案B。

14.get to意为“到达”;introduce… to意为“介绍……给……”;lead to意为“通向”;move to意为“朝……移动”。本句要表达的是道路与房子的关系,应该是这条路通向那所房子,leading符合文意,故答案为C。

15.上句提到她仔细看着通往房子的小路和房子,空后为“all windows”,将选项一一带入,只有found(发现)符合上下文逻辑,故答案为D。

16.transported意为“情不自禁的”;bright意为“明亮的”;plain意为“朴素的;简朴的;相貌平平的”;wide意为“宽的;广阔的”。上句说小女孩很失望(very disappointed)和后面提到很脏(very dirty),由此可以推知这所房子远没有她当初想象得好,很一般,很普通,plain符合文意。故答案为C。

17.上段提到了小女孩失望,本句中又有心碎(heart-broken),由此可推断小女孩感到伤心和难过(sad),故答案为D。

18.turn around意为“转身”;cheer up意为“(使)高兴起来,(使)振作起来”;settle down意为“定居;(使)安静下来”;drop in意为“顺便拜访;降下”。下句提到女孩看到在山谷的另一边有一所有金色窗户的小房子,可以推知turn around符合文意,故答案为A。

19.句子意思为小女孩转身后看到了令人惊讶的什么。结合下句中,小女孩看到的山谷对面的小房子和金色窗户可知,此处说的是令人惊讶的景象,sight“景象”符合文意,故答案为D。

20.空后面的句子意思是小女孩通过这次经历明白原来自己一直住在充满爱和关心的金色房子里,她所梦想和渴望的东西一直在自己的身边,也就是说她意识到了(realized)这个道理,故答案为C。

A man and his girlfriend were married. It was a large celebration. All of their friends and family came to see the lovely ceremony. Everyone could tell that the love they had for each other was true.

A few months later, the wife came to the husband with a piece of advice, “I read in a magazine, a while ago, about how we can strengthen our marriage,” she offered. “Each of us will write a list of the things that we find a bit annoying with the other person. Then, we can talk about how we can fix them together and make our lives happier together.”

The husband agreed. So each of them tried to think of the things that annoyed them about the other and wrote down what they came up with. The next morning, at the breakfast table, they decided that they would go over their lists.

“I’ll start,” offered the wife. She took out her list. It had many items on it, enough to fill three pages. In fact, as she started reading the list of the little annoyances, she noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husband’s eyes because he never thought that he had so many shortcomings.

The wife continued to read until she had read all three pages to her husband. “Now, you read your list and then we’ll talk about the things on both of our lists,” she said happily.

Quietly the husband stated, “I don’t have anything on my list. I think that you are perfect. I don’t want you to change anything for me. You are lovely and wonderful and I wouldn’t want to try and change anything about you.” The wife, touched by his honesty and the depth of his love for her and his acceptance of her, turned her head and wept.

In life, there are enough times when we are disappointed, depressed and annoyed. We don’t really have to go looking for them. We have a wonderful world that is full of beauty, light and promise. Why waste time in this world looking for the bad, disappointing or annoying when we can look around us and see the wonderful things before us?

1.Why were there tears in the husband’s eyes when the wife read his annoyances?

A. Because he had no courage to face his shortcomings.

B. Because he never thought he had so many annoyances in his wife’s eyes.

C. Because he was sorry that he didn’t find any annoyance about his wife.

D. Because he didn’t think he deserved to have such a perfect wife.

2.After hearing the husband’s words, the wife felt _________.

A. moved and ashamed

B. sad and disappointed

C. satisfied and proud

D. surprised and confused

3.The story is intended to tell us that ___________.

A. disappointment cannot be avoided in our life

B. young couples should be more tolerant (宽容的) to each other

C. we should turn a blind eye to other people’s blame

D. we should try to look for and see the wonderful things around us

Peter Onruang, a Hollywood businessman, has paid $310,000 to clone his best friend Wolfie, a lovely dog. He said, “Wolfie was more than just a pet to me.” Wolfie died two years ago, at the age of 15. But long before she and her sister Bubble passed away, Onruang had plans to bring them back to life. Onruang said, “I buried them at home. Each time I visit them, I say, ‘Hi, I’m making a new body for you.’”

Finally, Onruang found the South Korean biotechnology company RNL Bio, which can and will clone animals. Onruang collected his dogs’ stem cells (干细胞), and then he started a website MyFriendAgain.com, so he could earn and save the $310,000 that the cloning would cost.

The new dogs should look identical (完全相同的) to Wolfie and Bubble. When the cloning process is done, Onruang may end up with several clones of each dog. But Onruang admits he’s still not sure that they will be exactly the same.

Scientists cloned the first animal, a sheep named Dolly, in 1996 in Scotland. That project has raised ethical (伦理的) questions about where science should draw the line. Another question is whether such technique will lead to a day when humans could be cloned.

“If I had an opportunity to clone myself, I would do it readily,” Onruang said. “Because it’s me, I’m raising myself. I have already known exactly my strengths and weaknesses. This person is going to be the new and improved me, and will live the life I’ve always wanted to live.”

1.Onruang started the website MyFriendAgain.com in order to .

A. encourage more people to clone their pets

B. draw people’s attention to cloning

C. raise money to pay for the cloning

D. collect his dog’s stem cells

2.The purpose of the fourth paragraph is to tell us .

A. when and where scientists cloned the first sheep Dolly

B. people are in favor of the clone technology

C. cloning will be of great benefit to humans

D. there are arguments about the clone technology

3.What is Onruang’s attitude towards cloning humans?

A. He is enthusiastic about it.

B. He doesn’t care about it.

C. He strongly opposes it.

D. He never thinks about it.
