【题目】Henry is carried out to sea by a strong wind but 【1】 (spot) by a ship, on which he earns his passage by working without pay. As a result, he is brought to London. Feeling hungry, he 【2】 (wander) alone on the streets, hoping for 【3】 job.
Then unexpectedly he is 【4】 (invite) to a large and beautiful house by two rich brothers, Roderick and Oliver. They give a(n) envelope 【5】 a bank note in it to him.
They have made a 【6】 (secretly) bet on whether a man can 【7】 (survival) a month in the city with a million-pound bank note. Henry is the person they want.
He feels surprised at first and doesn’t want 【8】(accept) it, for he just wants an honest job from them, not 【9】(they) charity. The two brothers persuade him to take it at last, however. Though feeling very 【10】(surprise) about the matter, Henry promises them not to open the letter until one and a half hours later.
【答案】
【1】spotted
【2】wanders
【3】a
【4】invited
【5】with
【6】secret
【7】survive
【8】to accept
【9】their
【10】surprised
【解析】本文主要讲述了《百万英镑》的故事梗概。
【1】Henry与spot之间是被动关系故用spotted。
【2】由前一句的时态及主语是he可知用wanders。
【3】设空处表泛指且job为辅音音素开头，故用a。
【4】此处表示被动，故用被动语态。所以答案为invited。
【5】a(n) envelope with a bank note in it to him此处为with短语作后置定语。
【6】由设空前后的词可知，设空处为形容词修饰名词，故用secret。
【7】情态动词can后用动词原形。
【8】want to do…，故用to accept。
【9】由逗号前面的them及设空后的charity可知，设空处用形容词性物主代词their。
【10】设空处与feeling构成系表结构，故用surprised。

【题目】You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?
Jane Addams (l 860-1935)
Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
Rachel Carson (l 907-1964)
If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.
Sandra Day O’Connor (1930-present)
When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator (参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.
Rosa Parks (1913-2005)
On December 1,1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in,” said Parks.
【1】What is Jane Addams noted for in history?
A. Her social work.
B. Her teaching skills.
C. Her efforts to win a prize.
D. Her community background.
【2】What was the reason for O’Connor’s being rejected by the law firm?
A. Her lack of proper training in law.
B. Her little work experience in court.
C. The discrimination against women.
D. The poor financial conditions.
【3】Who made a great contribution to the civil-rights movement in the U.S.?
A. Jane Addams. B. Rachel Carson.
C. Sandra Day O’Connor. D. Rosa Park.

【题目】阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。
At the start of every new year, it is very typical 【1】 (make) new year’s resolutions. However, do they really work?
Personally, I don’t think so. Firstly, it’s always great to start the new year with a good 【2】 (intend) and a positive attitude, as it can bring more hope and happiness. However, when life 【3】 (return) to normal, the enthusiasm of writing a diary, for example, can wear off.
We often choose the goals 【4】 are unrealistic as resolutions under the false belief that we can just be a 【5】 (complete) different person in the new year. In fact, changes happen in small steps over time, so why not take a step back and think of something we can benefit 【6】?
For instance, let’s simply set some achievable goals: smile more at 【7】 (strange), laugh at least 【8】 (two) a day or write a positive thing that makes you happy, no matter 【9】 simple they are. These small gestures are thought 【10】 (be) effective to make you better on the inside and outside. So, let’s take the pressure away and make a great effort to be a better me!
