    Seventeen-year-old Rivertown teenager, John Janson, was honoured at the Lifesaver Awards last night for carrying out lifesaving first aid on his neighbour after a shocking knife    36  .
    John was presented with his award at a ceremony which recognized the    37   of the ten people who have saved the life of others.
    John had been studying in his room when he heard  38 . When he and his father rushed outside, they    39   that Anne Slade, mother of three, had been stabbed（刺）   40   with a knife by her ex-boyfriend（前男友）. The man ran from the  41  and left Ms Slade lying in her front garden    42   very heavily. Her hands had almost been cut off.
    It was John’s quick    43   and knowledge of first aid that saved Ms Slade’s life. He immediately asked a number of the    44   people for bandages（绷带）, but when nobody could put their hands on anything, his father got some tea towels（毛巾）and    45   from their house. John used these to dress the most severe    46   to Ms Slade’s hands. He slowed the bleeding by applying pressure to the wounds until the    47   and ambulance arrived.
    “I’m    48   of what I did but I was just doing what I had been    49  ,” John said.
    John had taken part in the Young Lifesaver Scheme at his high school. When   50  John, Mr Alan Southerton, Director of the Young Lifesaver Scheme, said, “   51  is no doubt that John’s quick thinking and the first aid52   that he had learned at school saved Ms Slade’s life. It shows that a simple knowledge of the first aid can make a real   53  .”
    John and the nine other lifesavers also attended a    54   reception yesterday hosted by the Prime Minister before    55   their awards last night.

    试题分析：本文介绍了17岁的年轻人约翰对受伤的邻居实施急救的过程，和因此而受到嘉奖的故事。
    小题1:attack攻击，进攻，其他选项意思不符合句义。show展览。work工作。defend防护。根据后面的内容我们知道不是用刀防卫，而是被持刀袭击。B 
    小题2:bravery勇敢。life生命。thinking思想。progress进步。该句表达的是对10名救了他人性命的人的勇敢进行嘉奖，所以选择bravery，其他三个词放在这里意思不对。A 
    小题3:screaming尖叫声。John正在房间里学习时，突然听到了尖叫声，所以紧接着他和他的父亲马上跑出去看个究竟。D
    小题4:他们“发现”Anne Slade被刺伤了。D 
    小题5:A repeatedly重复地，再三地。quickly快速地。frequently经常地，频繁地。gradually
    逐渐地。这里讲的是被反复刺了好几刀，其他词义与句义不符。所以选择A。
    小题6:ran from the scene从现场跑了；其他选项中的地点文章并没有明确透露，所以无从判断。C
    小题7:被刺了好几刀以后“流血”不止，所以bleeding更加符合逻辑；此外，根据后面的找绷带止血也可以推断出应该是bleeding。选C 
    小题8:action行动；本句是个强调句，强调是因为John快速采取行动对Anne Slade进行急救才救了她的性命。其他三个选项的意思放在这里不适合。选A
    小题9:nearby附近的。其他选项意思与句义不符。选B
    小题10:当周围的人们都找不到绷带时，他父亲回家取来了毛巾和“胶带”。选B
    小题11:这里说的是“包扎伤口”，所以用injuries。damages损害，伤害。pains疼痛。选C
    小题12: 后面已经出现了救护车，所以只有police放在这里最合理。选D
    小题13:四个选项的意思只有proud放在这里最为合理，“我为我所做的一切感到骄傲”。选A
    小题14:下文就讲到了John在高中时参加了Young Lifesaver Scheme，是在那里学到了有关急救的常识，因此这里用been taught。选B
    小题15:在祝贺John得奖时”，所以用congratulating。其他三个选项的意思放在这里不合句义。选D
    小题16:There is no doubt that … 毫无疑问……。选A
    小题17:first aid skill急救技能。其他三个词意思不合适，instructions说明，指导。key关键。history历史。选A
    小题18:discovery发现。harm伤害。difference不同。choice选择。放在句子中只有difference的意思最为合理，“一点简单的急救知识可以带来不同的结果”。选C
    小题19:recent近来的。secret秘密的。private私人的。special特殊的。只有special放在句中最为合理。选D
    小题20:give 给，赠与。offer提供。announce宣布。主语是“John和其他9位救生者”，
    所以前三个选项的动词如要放在这里应用过去分词表被动；receive得到，与句子主语是
    主动关系，故选选D。
    点评：先读懂全文，弄清文章要表达的思想，答题中，一定要认真分析，注意选项与上下文的关系，对于一时没有太大的把握的题可以放到最后再来完成，因为有时答案可以从下文内容体现出来。答完后再通读一篇文章，看看所选选项能不能是语句通顺，语意连贯。

    It was a quiet village in which there was a military camp (军营). It was far from the towns and cities and there were some high mountains around. Of course it was a good place for training the new soldiers. But it was difficult for the young men to go outside. Mr. White, an officer of forty, was strict with them and he hardly let them leave the camp.
    Once Mr. White was ill in bed. He couldn’t work and a young officer, Mr. Hunt, began to train the new soldiers instead of him. He knew the young men well and let nine soldiers go to the nearest town to have a holiday. But night fell and none came back to the camp. He was worried about it and stood at the gate. It was five to twelve when Mr. Hunt decided to go to the town and see what was happening to the young men. He started the car quickly and set off. At that moment the nine soldiers came back. It seemed they drank wine. Of course they found the officer was angry.
    “I’m sorry, sir,” said the first soldier. “I left the town on time. But something was wrong with my bus on my way here. I had to buy a horse and made it run fast. Bad luck! It died and I had to run back.”
    And the other seven soldiers said they were late for the same reasons. It was the last soldier’s turn. He said, “I’m sorry, sir. I got on a bus on time, but....”
    Having heard this, the officer became even angrier and stopped him at once. He called out, “If you say something was wrong with your bus, I’ll punish you at once!”
    “No, no, sir,” said the young man. “My bus was all right, but the dead horses were in its way!”
    小题1:The military camp was built in the village to ________.
    A．stop the soldiers from going to towns
    B．stop the soldiers from meeting their friends
    C．train the new soldiers
    D．make the young men live quietly
    小题2:Mr. Hunt let the nine soldiers have a holiday because ________.
    A．he was kind to themB．they felt lonely
    C．they had something important to doD．they were the best of all
    小题3:The young officer was worried because ________.
    A．a traffic accident had happened
    B．he was afraid something happened to the nine soldiers
    C．the nine soldiers would come back
    D．the nine soldiers drank too much in the town
    小题4:Which of the statements do you think is true?
    A. You’ll believe only the last soldier.
    B. The officer believed the nine soldiers.
    C. You’ll believe none of the nine soldiers.
    D. The officer wouldn’t punish his soldiers.

    One day，four lawyers were riding their horses along a country road. There had been a rain. Water was dripping (滴) from the trees，and the grass was wet. They rode slowly，talking and laughing. Suddenly they heard some noises from the tree above them. “What is the matter?” asked the first lawyer. “Oh, it's only some old birds!” said the second lawyer. “The storm made one of the babies fall out of the nest. It is too young to fly, and the mother bird is very worried.” “What a pity! It’ll die down there in the grass,” said the third lawyer. “It doesn't matter. It's only a bird,” said the second lawyer. Then they rode on, talking and laughing as before. But the fourth lawyer, whose name was Abraham Lincoln, stopped. He got down from his horse and took the little one in his big warm hands.
    “Never mind, my little fellow ,” said Mr. Lincoln. “I will put you back in your little nest.” He climbed up the tree and put the bird softly into their warm little home. A few minutes later, Mr. Lincoln joined them again. His shoes were covered with mud and he was wet. Then the other three laughed at him. They thought it was foolish for a strong man to do so much just for a young bird. “Gentlemen,” said Mr. Lincoln, “I could not sleep tonight if I had left the helpless bird in the grass.” Later Abraham Lincoln became very famous as a lawyer.

    "Colour" and "color"，"favourite" and "favorite"... Have you ever wondered why Americans spell those words without a "u"? Is it because they are lazy?
    Of course not. In fact，the difference in spelling was created by Noah Webster (1758-1843). He is a teacher who reformed English to make American identity stronger. Linguists (语言学家) celebrated his 250th birthday on October 16. After the Revolutionary War (1775~ 1783)，Webster believed that Americans should have their own dictionary，rather than rely on British versions (版本). He dropped the British "u" in some words. And he changed "centre" into "center" for children to learn English by spelling words more like they sounded.
    Webster wasn't shy about expressing his opinions. In defining (定义) preposterous (unreasonable)，he wrote: "A republican government in the hands of females is preposterous."
    Webster spent 28 years on the project before completing the 70,000-word dictionary in 1828 with his American-style spellings. He also added local words. His dictionary was widely used in schools. Linguists believed it helped a new nation achieve unity and cultural independence at a time when most were focused on political freedom.
    "He was the shaper of our language and the shaper of American identity，"said Joshua Kendall，who is working on a biography (传记) about Webster. "He at last bonded (联合)us through our language."
    小题1:Which of the following would probably be the best title for the passage?
    A．The shaper of American English.
    B．American identity.
    C．Webster's dictionary.
    D．Spelling differences between American and British English.
    小题2:According to the passage，when he worked on his dictionary, Noah Webster did all of the following EXCEPT        .
    A．voicing his opinion B．changing "centre" into "center"
    C．adding local words D．dropping "u" in all the British words
    小题3:Which of the following word can best describe Noah Webster’s work?
    A．Interesting. B．Meaningful. C．Unfinished. D．Boring.
    小题4:Why did Noah Webster create these differences in his dictionary?
    A．Because he wanted to make English simple and easy.
    B．Because he wanted to show that the USA is stronger than the UK.
    C．Because he wanted to achieve political freedom.
    D．Because he wanted American English to have its own characteristics.
    小题5:When did Noah Webster probably begin his project of the dictionary?
    A．In 1758. B．In 1783. C．In 1800.D．In 1828.

    You might say that Barack Obama was elected President of the US because he knows how to give a speech. In 2004, the little-known Obama gave a speech at the Democratic National Convention (民主党全国会议). It was a great speech — poetic, and inspiring. The people who heard it would remember it for a long time.
    Since 2004, Obama has written and delivered thousands of speeches. There are usually praised for two reasons: he treats the audiences like intelligent adults, and he is able to express complicated ideas in a straightforward, natural way.
    Before becoming President, Obama was a lawyer, a college professor, and a successful writer – his two memoirs (回忆录) have become best sellers. The skills he needed to succeed in his previous jobs have also contributed to his success as a speechmaker.
    As a lawyer, Obama learned how to make strong, convincing arguments. As a professor, he learned how to explain complex subjects in ways that helped students understand without boring them. As a writer, he learned how to use languages to have a powerful influence on his audience. A famous American musician even turned one of Obama’s early speeches into a song during the election campaign.
    Secret weapons of Obama
    Writing team: Obama has a team of people who write his speeches. The writers chat with Obama for hours about what he wants to say. Then listen to recordings of past presidential addresses and seek advice from advisers. Obama usually edits and rewrites the drafts several times.
    Make fun of the guests: Obama starts his speech by gently making fun of his guests. His opening lines attract the audience’s attention while giving them an opportunity to relax and laugh at themselves and each other.
    Make fun of himself: Obama laughs at his past mistakes and is never afraid of showing them to the public.
    Obama delivers speeches to audiences large and small. He can make his audiences laugh or cry. His speeches are always thoughtful, well written and just right for each occasion.
    小题1:The third and fourth paragraph mainly talk about _______.
    A．why Obama’s speeches are praised
    B．how Obama acquired his speaking ability
    C．what subjects Obama’s speeches are about
    D．Obama’s success as a writer and a lawyer
    小题2:What do we know about Obama’s writing team according to the passage?
    A．They always seek advice from the ordinary people.
    B．They analyze the speeches given by former US Presidents.
    C．They usually have to finish writing a speech in a short time.
    D．They try not to mention Obama’s past mistakes in the speeches.
    小题3:When delivering a speech, Obama __________.
    A．usually starts with some famous saying
    B．sometimes turns his speech into a song
    C．sometimes shares a joke with the audience
    D．is very strict most of the time
    小题4:What’s the author’s attitude towards Obama’s speeches?

    It was  Monday.  Mrs Smith’s dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house.Considering that there was no better way,  Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper,  and wrote the following words on it “Give my dog half a pound of meat. ” Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently:“  Take this to the butcher and he’s going to give you your lunch today.”
    Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher’s. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the lady’s handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up at once.
    At sunset, the dog came to the shop again. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again. After reading it. he gave it half a pound of meat once more.
    The next day, the dog came again exactly at noon. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in the mouth. This time, the butcher did not take a look at paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he had regarded the dog as one of his regular customers .
