1.satisfied
2.Do
3.who
4.and
5.to know
6.being woken
7.of
8.occurred
9.strength
10.later
【解析】
试题分析:这主要讲述了一个笑话,一个流浪汉睡在公园的长椅上,有两次被问到时间,因为没有手表,所以不知道具体时间,他很不高兴别人打扰他睡觉,于是写了一个纸片,说明情况,最后警察来告诉他时间,他最终还是被打扰了。
1. satisfied with 是固定词组,此句中,主谓宾很完整,satisfied with the afternoon sunshine 作为一个形容词短语修饰主语。故填satisfied。
2. have the time ,可至此处借用助动词Do来提问。故填Do。
3. out walking her dog只能作为一个定语从句,起修饰a woman 的作用,定语从句中修饰人用who,故填who。
4.
5. know。这整句话的意思是:“很抱歉打扰您,但是请问一下,您知道现在是几点了吗?”此题考查的是词组happen to “刚好,恰巧”的意思,to后面接动词原形,故填to know。
6. woken。这半句话的意思是:“流浪汉对再次被被弄醒感到很恼火”,be annoyed at是“对....很恼火、气恼”,词组中的介词at 后面接的是动名词,流浪汉是被吵醒的,因此应该用被动语态,故填being woken。
7. no idea of ,这是固定词组,“不知道......”的意思,故填of。
8. occur to sb , 整篇文章当中的时态全部运用过去时,因此此处也应该选用过去时,occur的过去式是双写r加ed,故填occurred。
9.
10.

Our risk of cancer rises rapidly as we age. So it makes sense that the elderly should be routinely screened(拍片检查) for new tumors (肿瘤) or doesn’t it?
While such tracking of cancer is a good thing in general, researchers are increasingly questioning whether all of this testing is necessary for the elderly. With the percentage of people over age 65 expected to nearly double by 2050, it s important to weigh the health benefits of screening against the risks and costs of routine testing.
In many cases, screening can lead to additional examinations and operations to remove cancer, which can cause side effects, while the cancers themselves may be slow-growing and may not cause serious health problems in patients’ remaining years. But the message that everyone must screen for cancer has become so ingrained (根深蒂固的) that when health care experts recommended that women under 50 and over 74 stop screening for breast cancer, it caused a noisy reaction among doctors, patients and social groups.
It’s hard to uproot deeply-held beliefs about cancer screening with scientific data. Certainly, there are people over age 75 who have had cancers detected by routine screening, and gained several extra years of life because of treatment. And clearly, people over age 75 who have other risk factors for cancer, such as a family history or previous personal experience with the disease, should continue to get screened regularly. But for the rest, the risk of cancer, while increased at the end of life, must be balanced with other factors like remaining life expectancy.
A recent study suggests that doctors start to make more objective decisions about who will truly benefit from screening—especially considering the explosion of the elderly.
It’s not an easy calculation to make, but one that makes sense for patients. Dr. Otis Brawley said, “Many doctors are ordering these tests purely to cover themselves from medical disputes(争端). We need to think about the wise use of health care, which means making some difficult decisions with elderly patients, and going against the misguided belief that when it comes to health care, more is always better.”
1. Routine cancer screening for the elderly people makes sense because ______.
A. it is believed to contribute to a long life
B. it is part of their health care package
C. they are more sensitive about the health
D. they are in greater danger of tumor growth
2.How do some researchers now look at routine cancer screening for the elderly?
A. It adds too much to their medical bills.
B. They are doubtful about its necessity.
C. It helps increase their life expectancy.
D. They think it does more harm than good.
3. What is the traditional view about women screening for breast cancer?
A. It is a must for adult women.
B. It applies to women over 50.
C. It is intended for young women.
D. It doesn’t apply to women over 74.
4.What does the writer say is the general view about health care?
A. Better care, longer life.
B. Prevention is better than cure.
C. Better early than late.
D. The more, the better.

As we know, there are differences between western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used. Let’s look at the words about animals and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, “a homeless dog”, “a mad dog”, “a running dog” and “a dog catching a mouse”, have negative meanings. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive actions. For example, “you are a lucky dog” means you are a lucky person. And “every dog has its day” means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a person’s serious illness, they say “sick as a dog”. The word “dog-tired” means very tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture, “cat” is often used to describe a woman who is cruel. There are many other examples of how “cat” is used differently as well.
The rose is regarded as a symbol of love in both China and some western countries. People think the rose stands for love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.
The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used.
1.“Every dog has its day” means “__________”.
A. Everybody in the world is lucky.
B. Each person lives his own way of life.
C. If one works hard, he’s sure to succeed.

We spent a day in the country and picked a lot of flowers. Our car was full of flowers inside! On the way home we had to stop at traffic lights, and there my wife saw the bookshelf.(书柜)
It stood outside a furniture(家具)shop. “Buy it,” she said at once. “We’ll carry it home on the roof-rack(车顶架). I’ve always wanted one like that.”
What could I do? Ten minutes later I was twenty dollars poorer, and the bookshelf was tied on to the roof rack. It was tall and narrow, quite heavy too.
As it was getting darker, I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.
After a time my wife said, “There’s a long line of cars behind. Why don’t they overtake(超车)?”
Just at that time a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously when they went past. But then, with a kind smile they asked us to follow their car through the busy traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me.
“Right, sir,” he said. “Do you need any more help now?”
I didn’t quite understand. “Thanks, officer,” I said. “You’ve been very kind. I live just down the road.”
He was looking at our things: first at the flowers, then at the bookshelf. “Well, well,” he said and laughed. “It’s a bookshelf you’ve got there! We thought it was——er, something else.”
My wife began to laugh. Suddenly I understood why the police drove here. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it’s a bookshelf, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.

D.He could save a lot of money and time.
3.Why were the police and other drivers so kind to the writer?

B. Because they didn’t think it was polite to overtake a car with a bookshelf on it.
C. Because they thought it was dangerous to carry a bookshelf on a car.
D. Because they thought somebody in the writer’s family had died and he needed help.

I was brought up in the countryside by my grandmother. She was a very courageous and inspiring woman and was very beautiful, too. In comparison with her or some of my classmates, I always felt that I was not beautiful or pretty. In fact, when I was studying in middle school, I thought I was not beautiful and just because of these bad feelings I was not very confident. I often felt self-conscious. One day when I was walking with my grandmother after lunch, we met one of her friends. We talked for a few minutes. Just as my grandmother’s friend was about to leave, she turned to me and praised, “Xiao Wen, you look so beautiful today in that green dress.”
No one had ever praised me before. It was so encouraging. Suddenly I felt confident and happy. I couldn’t believe that someone described me as beautiful. It is true that those words turned my life around. And I admit that I treasured that green dress for a long time.
