People are not so honest that they once were. The temptation to steal is greater than ever before ---- especial in large shops. A detective recently watched a well-dressed woman who always went into a large store on Monday mornings. One Monday, there was fewer people in the shop than usual when the woman came in, but it was easier for the detective to watch her. The woman first bought for a few small articles. After a little time, she chose one of the most expensive dressed in the shop and hand it to an assistant who wrapped it up for him as quickly as possible. Then the woman simply took the parcel and walked out to the shop with paying. When she was arrested, the detective found that the shop assistant was her daughter. The girl ‘gave’ her mother the free dress once a week!

【答案】

【1】that改为as

【2】especial改为especially

【3】was改为were

【4】but改为so

【5】bought后的for删去

【6】hand改为handed

【7】him改为her

【8】with改为without

【9】found 后加out

【10】the改为a

【解析】

试题分析:本文属于记叙文,介绍了一位女士在做服务员的女儿的配合下从商店里偷东西的故事。

【1】that改为as 考查方式状语从句。本句中连词as引导方式状语从句,意为“像...一样”。句意:现在的人并不像曾经那么诚实。

【2】especial改为especially 考查副词。在英语中副词通常做状语修饰形容词、副词、动词、介词短语或整个句子,而形容词通常在句中做定语或表语修饰名词。本句中副词especially做状语修饰介词短语in large shops。

【3】was改为were 考查主谓一致。句式“There be”属于倒装句,系动词要和后面的名词保持一致,本句中“few people”是复数名词,所以使用复数形式were。

【4】but改为so 考查连词。句意:一个星期一,当她进来的时候,商店里的人比平时要更少,所以对于侦探来说更容易注意她。上下文之间是因果关系,所以使用表示因果关系的连词“so”连接上下文。

【5】bought后的for删去 考查动词。动词“buy购买”是及物动词,后面直接加宾语,介词for是多余的。

【6】hand改为handed 考查时态。本句谓语部分是两个并列结构“chose one...”和“hand it to an....”都应该使用一般过去式,所以要把hand改为handed。

【7】him改为her 考查代词。本句中代词her指代上文中提及的女性“a well-dressed woman”。

【8】with改为without 考查上下文。这位女士被逮捕,是因为她没有付钱就离开商店,属于盗窃行为。所以使用介词“without....”。

【9】found 后加out 考查动词辨析。动词“find找到”,短语“find out发现,查明”;句意:当她被逮捕的时候,侦探发现这位售货员是她的女儿。根据句意可知应该使用find out。

【10】the改为a 考查不定冠词。英语中不定冠词a通常表示泛指,本句中a修饰“free dress”泛指“一件免费的衣服”。句意:这位女孩每周都“给”她的妈妈一件免费的衣服。

Pronunciation Tips

These English pronunciation tips will help you get the most out of your Pronunciation Power program.

【1】

For example, “threw” and “through”, although spelled differently, are pronounced the same. Also, identical(相同的) letters or letter clusters(字母组合) in words do not always produce the same sound. For example, the “ough” in “though” and “through” represents a different sound in each word. 2

Imagine a sound in your mind before you say it.

Try to visualize(想象))the positioning of your mouth and face. 3

Listen to and try to imitate the Pronunciation Power instructor.

In addition to listening for specific sounds, pay attention to pauses, the intonation(语调) of the instructor's voice and patterns of emphasis. 4

The English language has many different dialects, and words can be pronounced differently.

It is important, however, that you pronounce words clearly to ensure effective communication.

Finally, the Pronunciation Power program is a tool to help you.

But you must practice what you are learning! Remember that you are teaching your mouth a new way to move. You are building muscles that you do not use in your own language. 5 Use the program to exercise your mouth a little bit each day.

A. Read these words over and over again and try to learn them by heart.

B. This can be just as important as the pronunciation of sounds.

C. Learn to practice what you hear, not what you see.

D. So you should force yourself to do what you really don’t like to do.

E. Do not confuse pronunciation of words with their spelling!

F. It is like going to the gym and exercising your body.

G. Think about how you are going to make the sound.

Cooking Kills Four Million People a Year

Polluted airborne particles(大气悬浮颗粒)kill 7 million people a year,reports the World Health Organization.

That news may not come as a surprise to anyone who has seen images of chimneys in Beijing,Delhi or Mexico.But those factories—or even the jammed roadways of modern cities—are not the biggest killer.Each year,4.3 million people die earlier than they should because of polluted air inside their homes,says the WHO.

What’s causing the air inside people’s homes to be so poisonous that it kills around 11,000 people a day?Stoves.“Having an open fire in your kitchen is like burning 400 cigarettes an hour.” says Kirk Smith,a professor at the University of California at Berkeley,whose research suggests that household air pollution from cooking killed between 3.5 million and 4 million people in 2013.

Not all stoves cause this kind of harm.The ones Smith’s talking about are those that the 3 billion people in the developing world use for heat and cooking,which burn solid fuels such as wood,coal,or crop waste instead of gas.The smoke from those fires produces harmful fine particles and carbon monoxide into homes.Poor ventilation then prevents that smoke from escaping,raising fine particle levels 100 times higher than the limits that the WHO considers acceptable.

Breathing this air eventually causes a lot of diseases:more than a third of the 4.3 million die of a stroke,while a quarter die of heart disease.And around one-third of annual lung disease deaths worldwide are due to waste from coal stoves.

Exposure tends to be extremely harmful for the people who spend the most time around the fire—usually women and young children.In fact,the WHO reports that household air pollution almost doubles the risk for childhood lung disease.

【1】According to Kirk Smith’s research, .

A.factories are the biggest killer worldwide nowadays

B.burning 400 cigarettes an hour is extremely dangerous

C.household air pollution from cooking is surprisingly harmful

D.4.3 million people die earlier each year than they should

【2】What should be the deadly killer in a household kitchen?

A.Solid fuels. B.Coal stoves.

C.Poor gas. D.Cooking smoke.

【3】The underlined word “ventilation” in Paragraph 4 probably means .

A.airing B.cooking

C.burning D.cooling

【4】The author intends to tell people .

A.how to avoid polluted air in their homes

B.to stop cooking in the household kitchen

C.to guard against household pollution from cooking

D.how to prevent childhood lung diseases in household

【题目】Jimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.

One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tire of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please. I insist.” Jimmy agreed.

Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.

Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.

“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.

B. A wild man was pushing a car.

C. A terrible accident happened.

D. An old mans car broke down.

3】Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?

A. He was also to be interviewed

B. He needed a traveling companion

C. He always helped people in need

D. He was thankful to Jimmy

4】How did Jimmy feel on hearing the interviewers question?

A. He was sorry for the other applicants.

B. There was no hope for him to get the job.
