My cousin David was used to love eating meat, but it changed one day. I think he started to eat less meat because he wanted to lose weigh. In fact, he had the better reason. One day last year, while he was searching material for hi school paper, he came cross a report. According to the report, we can help prevent global warming as we eat less meat but more vegetable. David cared about the earth, so he decided to make a change. I think you both should start eating less meat. It not only benefit our health but also the earth.
【答案】第一句:去掉was
第二句:think → thought; weigh → weight
第三句:the → a
第四句:searching后加for; cross → across
第五句:as → if; vegetable → vegetables
第七句:both → all
第八句:benefit → benefits
【解析】
本文是一篇记叙文,作者的侄儿David为了帮助减少全球变暖,决定少吃肉多吃蔬菜。
第一处:考查固定搭配。短语used to do sth过去常常做某事;be used to do sth被用来做某事;句意:我的侄儿David过去非常喜欢吃肉;根据句意可知应该使用used to do sth。
第二处:考查时态。本句叙述过去发生的事情,使用一般过去时。所以本句中谓语动词使用过去式thought。
第三处:考查名词。动词weigh重量达…;名词weight重量;应该使用名词weight做动词lose的宾语。句意:我以为他少吃肉是因为他想减肥。
第四处:考查冠词。不定冠词a/an表示泛指,定冠词the表示特指;本句中使用不定冠词a泛指“一个重要理由”。句意:实际上他有一个更好的理由。
第五处:考查动词短语。短语search for寻找…,该短语在句中做谓语动词。句意:去年的某一天,当他在寻找论文材料的时候,他发现了一个报告。
第六处:考查动词短语。短语come across遇见…;而cross是动词,不能直接和另外一个动词连用。句意:去年的某一天,当他在寻找论文材料的时候,他发现了一个报告。
第七处:考查连词。句意:根据这篇报道,如果我们少吃肉多吃蔬菜,就可以帮助预防全球变暖。结合句意,可知上下文之间应该是条件关系,故as改为if。
第八处:考查名词单复数。名词vegetable蔬菜,通常是可数名词,使用复数形式vegetables做动词eat的宾语。
第九处:考查代词。代词both指代两者,all指代三者或三者以上。句意:我认为那么所有人都应该开始少吃肉;这是作者对读者们的建议,应该指三者或三者以上的人,所以使用all。
第十处:考查时态。本句解释了少吃肉的好处,应该使用一般现在时。主语是it,所以谓语使用第三人称单数形式benefits。

【题目】 Laura Sides was a psychology major at the University of Nottingham in 2004. She first noticed signs of her dad’s developing dementia(痴呆) when she moved to Nottingham. She said, "Dad was a doctor, so he knew exactly what had happened to him, but people try to hide it when they are ill. Then, I came home for my 21st birthday and arranged to meet him, but he never showed up as he’d forgotten. That’s when I knew something serious had happened."
So, aged 21, she decided to leave university and look after him herself. She lived close by, popping in every day to make sure he was eating, and that the house was tidy, before heading off to her work.
Besides challenging moments, there was a time when looking after her dad was a pure joy. "We’d wake up, I’d ask what he wanted to do that day, and however ridiculous the adventure is, off we’d go."
Sadly, in 2009, 5 years later, Laura lost her father. Before he died, Laura went to a hospital appointment with him, where doctors mentioned that his form of Alzheimer’s disease was genetic meaning there was a fifty-fifty chance that she had inherited it. For several years Laura agonised over whether to be tested, finally finding out in August 2017 that she has the APP gene, meaning that, like him, she will develop the condition within a decade.
At first, she struggled, feeling as if her life lacked purpose. Then, during a sleepless night in the summer of 2018, she decided at around 2 a.m. to enter the 2019 London Marathon sponsored by the charities Alzheimer’s Society and Alzheimer’s Research UK.
She hoped to start the conversation around early-onset Alzheimer’s disease and to encourage people to talk about it more openly. "I remember when Dad was ill, people wouldn’t know how to react, but I want to be honest and open," she added. "The more information we can get, the less of a taboo(忌讳) we will feel. That said, the support I’ve received so far after going public has been amazing — that’s what is carrying me through."
【1】Laura noticed her father’s dementia when .
A.her father told her his condition in person
B.people nearby informed her of his father’s condition
C.her father forgot his own birthday party
D.her father forgot to attend her 21-year-old birthday party
【2】The underlined word "agonised" in Paragraph 4 probably means .
A.excitedB.struggled
C.shockedD.delighted
【3】Laura started the open talk in the hope of .
A.getting people to talk about Alzheimer’s disease openly
B.earning some money to help treat her Alzheimer’s disease
C.making herself stronger to fight against Alzheimer’s disease
D.raising funds for charities Alzheimer’s Society and Alzheimer’s disease Research UK
【4】Which words can best describe Laura?
A.Caring and positive.B.Careful and honest.
C.Patient and cautious.D.Devoted and modest.

【题目】 The critics’ top four books of 2018 are based on Christmas selections in national newspapers, the London Evening Standard, The TLS, The Spectator and the New Statesman.
Normal People by Sally Rooney Faber 14.99
Sally Rooney’s debut novel, Conversations with Friends, was one of last year’s most talked-about books. The response to the Irish writer’s follow-up has, if anything, been even more ecstatic. The 27-year-old was praised for her ability to convey subtle modulations of emotion. The novel was long listed for the Man Booker Prize — but many felt that it should have done better.
Vietnam by Max Hastings William Collins 30
This long-awaited historical blockbuster follows the Vietnam War over three decades,from the French “dirty war” of 1946—54 to America’s capitulation to the Vietcong in 1975. Hastings, who reported from the battlefield in Vietnam as a young British journalist, was praised for his encyclopedic knowledge of the conflict.
The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker Hamish Hamilton 18.99
Pat Barker’s novel is a retelling of The lliad — but with women at the heart of the action. The central character is Briseis, who appears only glancingly in Homers original. Best-known for her First World War Set Regeneration trilogy (1997). Barker, in her fifties, again focuses on the traumas of war. Reviewers praised the novel’s subversive energy even if it was judged conventional in places.

【题目】 Three weeks ago, we were living paycheck to paycheck. We survived on my husband’s low-paid job and my disability. We have kids. Also, I was experiencing a terrible tumor (肿瘤)on my neck, leaving me staying in bed in extreme pain, but the operation was to be $8,000, out of pocket, because Medicare only covers 80%.
To take me to the hospital, my husband took a day off work. At 7 am, his boss called. He was being placed on paid leaving, waiting for an investigation into a mistake he had made at work.
We both panicked. Having slowly worked our way out of poverty (贫穷) for 8 years, we were so close to being OK and it was ail falling away. As my husband was a great worker, we decided to stay positive and hope for the best. However, two days later he received the official phone call-he was fired.
Having no savings to pay bills, we cried hopelessly. We went to the welfare office only to be told that he couldn’t collect unemployment for 8 weeks, meaning he had the possibility of having $0 income for two months. It was terrifying.
With only enough food to last for about a week, we applied for food stamps and Medicaid. Then we worked together- diving into job applications. After sending out resumes (简历)to everywhere in the field, he came across some promising companies. We kept our fingers crossed. Hopefully, we could get out of trouble as early as possible.
Soon I got a phone call-my neck operation was going to be free now that we were poor again. And my husband got an email invitation for a video interview and it went great. He would be paid $3 more an hour than his last job. What a roller coaster ride!
【1】What was the family like before the husband got fired?
A.They showed little concern for each other.
B.They lived in an extremely poor area.
C.They could hardly make ends meet.
D.They led a rich and comfortable life.
【2】Why did the boss call the husband?
A.To ask him about the truth.B.To tell him about a decision.
C.To persuade him to quit his job.D.To warn him to mind his work attitude.
【3】What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 most probably mean?
A.We were uncertain about our future.B.We waited hopelessly.
C.We felt more and more nervous.D.We wished ourselves good luck
【4】What life lesson has the author learned from her experience?
A.Many hands make light work.
B.Actions speak louder than words.
C.When one door shuts, another opens.
D.One false step makes a great difference.
