【题目】语法填空
One hot summer day, I bought a small boat when my family spent vacation【1】(enjoy) the beaches of beautiful Gulf shores. Both of my daughters played all day in the boat. Later the little one got【2】(tire). Therefore, I took her to our spot on the sand as my elder girl continued to play in the boat. But the boat with my elder daughter in it was gradually moving far out from the shore. I called to her to come【3】(close) to the shore and she seemed to be frightened. All she could do was to 【4】(paddle) hard to one side and the boat was just making small circles.
I stood as far out in the water, shouting【5】(instruct) to her. 【6】(fortunate), some teenagers on a boat not far from her【7】(notice) what was happening and started to head her way immediately.
I'm not a good swimmer【8】I determined to have a try. I continued swimming until I no longer knew or could feel that I had legs, but I always kept my eyes on her. Helped by the teenagers, I finally made my way back pulling her and calming her.
I've learned_【9】the experience that maybe we think we are not strong enough sometimes, but if we trust 【10】 enough and take the first attempt, we'll have all the strength we need.
【答案】
【1】enjoying
【2】tired
【3】closer
【4】paddle
【5】instructions
【6】Fortunately
【7】noticed
【8】but
【9】from
【10】ourselves
【解析】
试题分析:
【1】spend time (in) doing sth.为固定结构,意为“花时间做某事”,所以此处应填enjoy的现在分词形式,即enjoying。
【2】get后面常接动词的过去分词形式作表语,表示“变得……”,所以此处应填 tired。
【3】根据语境可知,作者应该是让大女儿把船划得离海岸近些,所以此处应用 close 的比较级形式,即 closer。
【4】在动词不定式符号to后应用动词原形,且 paddle和句子主语“she”之间存在逻辑上的主谓关系,所以此处应填 paddle。
【5】instructions shout意为“大声说出,喊”,是及物动词,所以其后应接名词作宾语,故此处应用instruct的名词形式instruction;又因instruction表示“指令,指示”的含义时是可数名词,由此结合语境可知,此处应填名词复数instructions。
【6】空格处应用副词修饰整个句子“some teenagers ...immediately”,所以此处应填 fortunate 的副词形式。
【7】根据上下文语境可知,文章讲述的是过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时。故此处应填notice的过去式,即noticed。
【8】根据空格前后的语境可知,作者并不擅长游泳,但还是决定要游到女儿身边去帮助她。空格前后之间为转折关系,故此处应填but。
【9】learn from为固定短语,意为“从……中学到”,符合语境。故此处填from。
【10】根据语境可知,作者认为,尽管有时我们并不足够强壮,但我们还是要相信自己,勇于去尝试。句子主语为“we”,故此处应填反身代词ourselves。

A start-up company called ROLI began selling the electronic keyboard in 2013.The keyboard is known as Seaboard.It does not have【4】same white and black keys as a piano.Instead it is【5】(make) from soft and rubbery materials.

【题目】阅读理解。
Informal conversation is an important part of any business relationship. Before you start a discussion, however, make sure you understand which topics are suitable and which are considered taboos (禁忌) in a particular culture. Latin Americans enjoy sharing information about their local history, art, and customs. They expect questions about their family and are sure to show pictures of their children. You may feel free to ask similar questions of your Latin American friends. The French think of conersation as an art form, and they enjoy the value of lively discussions as well as disagreements. For them, arguments can be interesting — and they can cover pretty much or any topic — as long as they occur in a respectful and intelligent (智慧的) manner.
In the United States, business people like to discuss a wide range of topics, including opinions about work, family, hobbies, and politics. In Japan, China and Korea, however, people are much more private. They do not share much about their thoughts, feelings, or emotions because they feel that doing so might take away from the harmonious (和谐的) business relationship they're trying to build. Middle Easterners are also private about their personal lives and family matters. It is considered rude, for example, to ask a businessman from Saudi Arabia about his wife or children.
As a general rule, it's best not to talk about politics or religion (宗教) with your business friends. This can get you into trouble, even in the United States, where people hold different views. In addition, discussing one's salary is usually considered unsuitable. Sports is typically a friendly subject in most parts of the world, although be careful not to criticize a national sport. Instead, be friendly and praise your host's team.
【1】The author considers politics and religion______.
A.cheerful topics B.taboos
C.rude topics D.too serious
【2】We typically talk about______in a friendly way in most places according to the author.
A.sports B.children
C.personal feelings D.families
【3】Why are people from Asia more private in their conversation with others?
A.They don't want to talk with others much.
B.They don't want to have their good relationship with others harmed by informal conversation.
C.They are afraid to argue with their colleagues.
D.They want to keep their feelings to themselves.
【4】In which country may it be suitable to talk about the family with your business friends?
A.In France. B.In Saudi Arabia.
C.In Korea. D.In the USA.

【题目】I was sure that I was to be killed. I became terribly nervous. I fumbled(摸索) in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had escapedtheir search. I found one and because of my shaking hands, I could barely get it to my lips. But I had no matches, they had taken those. I looked through the bars at the guard. He did not make eye contact with me. I called out to him “Have you got a light?” He looked at me, shrugged and came over to light my cigarette. As he came close and lit the match, his eyes unconsciously locked with mine. At that moment, I smiled. I don’t know why I did that. Perhaps it was nervousness, perhaps it was because, when you get very close, one to another, it is very hard not to smile. In any case, I smiled. In that instant, it was as though a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls. I know he didn’t want to, but my smile leaped through the bars and caused a smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but stayed near, looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.
I kept smiling at him, now thinking of him as a person and not just a guard. "Do you have kids?" he asked. “Yes, here, here.” I took out my wallet and nervously fumbled for the pictures of my family. He, too, took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them. My eyes filled with tears. I said that I feared that I’d never see my family again, never have the chance to see them grow up. Tears came to his eyes, too. Suddenly, without another word, he unlocked my cell and silently led me out. Out of the prison, quietly and by back routes, out of the town. There, at the edge of town, he released me. And without another word, he turned back toward the town.
【1】What had happened to the man before ?
A. He had been badly treated.
B. He had killed someone.
C. He had been searched.
D. He had been forbidden to get in touch with anyone.
【2】Why did the man want to smoke cigarettes?
A. Because he was sure he was to be killed.
B. Because he wanted to ease his nervousness.
C. Because he wanted to talk to the guard.
D. Because he was used to smoking cigarettes.
【3】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. The man was a heavy smoker.
B. The man smiled to please the guard.
C. The guard set the man free with permission.
D. The man hadn’t thought the guard would set him free.
【4】What do you think finally saved the man’s life?
A. The smile. B. The cigarette.
C. The tears. D. The wallet.

【题目】Too Good To Go, an app operating in the UK, allows users to order leftover food at a discount from restaurants, according to the website. The goal is to help cut food waste.
Users simply log in, pick a restaurant, pay through the app and then pick up their food at a set time—usually around closing or after peak meal times. Orders through the app cost between 2 British pounds ($2.60) to 3.80 British pounds (about $5). Users aren’t able to pick the food items, but they get an idea of the type of food that will be available, according to Business Green.
Users also have the option to give meals to people in need by donating 1 British pound or more through the app. More than l, l00 meals have been donated so far.
To ensure the entire experience is super eco-friendly. Too Good To Go provides recyclable takeout packaging to participating restaurants.
Restaurants using the app make extra money by selling food what would otherwise have been throw away. And Too Good To Go itself makes money by taking a fee from participating restaurants on each sale.
Founded in Denmark last year. Too Good To Go launched this year in the UK and is expanding to other countries. The app is available in Brighton, Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds, and will be in London later this month.
“Food waste just seems like one of the dumbest(愚蠢) problems we have in this world,” co-founder James Crummie told Business Green. “The restaurant industry is wasting about 600,000 tonnes of food each year, and in the UK alone there are one million people on emergency food parcels from food banks. Why do we have these two massive social issues that are completely connected, yet there is not much going on to address them?”
Too Good To Go has already helped cut a significant amount of waste. So far, the app has saved 600 meals from landfills in the UK, reports Business Green.
【1】Why is the app introduced into UK according to the passage?
A. To help users find proper restaurants.
B. To reduce food waste in UK.
C. To help people in need of food.
D. To make orders of food much cheaper.
【2】Which of the following statements are TRUE according to the passage?
A. The app has made some progress in saving food.
B. The app has been used throughout UK by now.
C. You can make money if you are a customer.
D. The restaurants provide recyclable takeout packaging.
【3】From what James Crummie said we know that ________.
A. it’s stupid for the restaurant industry to waste so much food
B. food bank should provide more food to people in need
C. people don't pay much attention to food problems
D. it’s stupid trying to solve food problems by using the app
【4】What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. How to use the app.
B. Who benefit from the app.
C. Food waste is the biggest problem.
D. Using an app can reduce food waste.

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Secret codes (密码)keep messages private. Banks, companies, and government agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.
People have used secret codes for thousands of years. 【1】 Code breaking never lags(落后) far behind code making. The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography.
There are three main types of cryptography. 【2】 For example, the first letters of “My elephant eats too many eels” spell out the hidden message “Meet me.”
【3】 You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Let’s number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message “Meet me” would read “135 520 135.”
A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. 【4】 For example, “bridge” might stand for “meet” and “out” might stand for “me.” The message “Bridge out” would actually mean “Meet me.” 【5】 However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.
A. It is very hard to break a code without the code book.
B. In any language, some letters are used more than others.
C. Only people who know the keyword can read the message.
D. As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them.
E. You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out.
F. With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words.
G. Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.
