Graduation day is a major accomplishment for anyone in high school. After      your whole life in classrooms, though, what will be next? For some people, graduation is the        time they ever want to see a        again. For others, it is the next step in their education. And the few that are not       either way yet will most likely either go on to college or go into the military. There are always a few people in every        class that don't know what to do,        if you make a good choice, you will not be one of them.
Some of those people that decide that they never want to       a classroom again will most likely       some sort of simple jobs. Others will either find a way aside from school to better themselves,       through travel or giving back to the community.
High school graduates that already have their futures        0ut are pretty rare. They are the       who have been preparing for college from the first day that they         high school. They most likely applied early to the schools that they were interested       and have already dedicated themselves to the career        they want. Most of them will become doctors, lawyers, and business people, etc.
The last group of people is the biggest. It is the students who _     know that they want to do something but have no idea what. Some of them will _      the military and proudly serve our country. Others will go on t0       , take basic courses, and then decide what they want to major in. There will be some students even         to a technical school to learn a specific     that they can contribute to the workforce.        is a stepping stone that can lead you on to better things if you will let it.

解析试题分析:高中毕业意味着学业的终止呢?还是另一个学习阶段的起点呢?对于一些面临毕业的学生们来说,他们还很茫然,没有毕业后的打算。然而有些人却已经明确了目标:他们的下一站是大学。不管如何打算,毕业不是终点,它只是人生路上的一块踏脚石。
【小题1】B动词辨析。A. 花钱;B. 度过时间;C. 花时间;D. 付款。根据词的用法可知cost和pay后跟表示钱的名词,所以排除A、D选项,而B、C选项后可跟表示时间的名词,而take的主语一般是事情,而spend的主语是人,而且强调“度过时间”,由此判断B选项正确。
【小题2】A形容词辨析。A.最后的;B.首先的;C.唯一的 ;D.特别的。根据下文叙述可知在多年的学习之后,一些学生再也不想踏进教室,所以A选项正确。
【小题3】C名词辨析。A.同学;B. 教师; C . 教室; D. 黑板。根据下文they never want to   37   a classroom again可知C选项正确。句意:他们再也不想看到教室。

【小题6】A连词辨析。A. 但是;B. 和 ;C. 或 ;D. 然后。上句提到临近毕业还有一些不知道毕业后做什么的学生,而下句讲只要你做出选择,你就不会成为他们中的一员,由此可知前后是转折关系,选A。
【小题7】D动词辨析。A.注意 ;B. 看 ;C. 观看 ; D. 看见。根据上文they ever want to see a   33   again可知D选项正确,他们不想再看到教室。
【小题8】C动词短语辨析。A.  建立; B. 调高;C. 从事 ;D.查阅。从动词搭配可知take up a job “从事某项工作”,所以C选项正确,句意:那些决定再也不想看到教室的学生很可能就从事一些简单的工作。
【小题9 】A连词辨析。A. 或者,任意一个;B.( 两者)都不;C. 两者)都;D. (三者以上)都。从句意可知前后是两种选择,再根据句中 either判断此处是either …..or 连接两个选择对象,所以答案选A。
【小题10】C动词辨析。A. 决定; B.选择;C. 计划; D. 实现。从下文who have been preparing for college 可以判断此处是指那些有打算有计划的学生们,plan sth out“精心筹划,安排”,所以答案选C。

【小题14】B引导词辨析。A. 谁;B.无词义;C. 什么;D. 哪儿。从结构可知此处是定语从句,从句中缺少want的宾语,而且先行词是career,所以选关系代词that,答案选B。
【小题15】C副词辨析。A.甚至;B.曾经;C. 只,仅仅;D. 很。根据下文but have no idea what.可知这些学生知道毕业后得做点什么,但是不知道具体去做什么,所以C选项符合语境,句意:他们仅仅知道他们得去做些事情,但是不知道要做什么。
【小题16】A动词辨析。A. 加入 ;B.拿走 ;C. 需要; D. 参加。根据the military and proudly serve our country可知这些学生去参军、为国效力,所以答案选A。

“ Oh yes,” said I —  77  having cooked for more than four in my life. I  78  her again and again, and rushed out to the   79  telephone box. I collected my thoughts, took a deep breath, and rang the number. I said confidently that I was just what she was looking for. I spent the next few hours   80  cook books.

Some people will do just about anything to save money. And I am one of them. My family’s last vacation was a good         to prove it. It was my six-year-old son’s winter break from school, and we were         home from Fort Lauderdale after a week-long trip. The flight was        , and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. I had meetings in New York, so I had to        . But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay. I took my nine-month-old and took off for home.
The next day, my husband and son were offered more         to take an even later flight. Yes, I encouraged — okay, ordered — them to wait it out at the        , to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?
Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a        . And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to        .
I've made living looking for the best deals and         the worst tricks. I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade. So far, I feel proud that I have written a couple of         including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I         in.
I tell you this because there is no         in getting your money’s worth. Honestly, I’m also         when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its shape longer, and it's the first thing people        . And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture.         lasts.

科目:高中英语 来源: 题型:阅读理解

In ninth grade, I thought Jennifer Fever, the dark-haired girl who sat behind me in classroom, was an alien(外星人). Our class organized an activity to raise money for the library, and in one month, Jennifer read 34 books. I couldn’t believe it. Surely, she was from some faraway planet where creature lived and they didn’t own television sets. How could a human being, a 13-year-old girl, read 34 books in one month?
I had read three books. And by “read”, I mean skimmed. I mean opened and placed them on my lap while watching cartoons.
Who had time to read? In addition to my favorite cartoons, I had a basketball that required playing, a baseball that required throwing, and a volleyball that required volleying. And it wasn’t as if my bike could ride itself.
Besides, reading was boring. And if I wanted to be bored, it would be much easier just to pay attention during Mr. Kearly’s social studies class.
After senior high school, my education had become very narrow: computer engineering, mathematics, physics, and not much else.
Years later, I realized something: I had not memory of ever reading a book for pleasure. But there was a world of knowledge outside science and engineering, and I was tired of being ignorant(无知的)of it, so I decided I would become a reader. I dived into book after book. In short, the bookworm within me had awakened.
Today, I carry a book(if not two or three) with me wherever I go. An hour-long waiting for the bus is not trouble; rather, it’s a chance to enjoy a few chapters of Malcolm Gladwell’s latest works. Sometimes, I wish my waiting was longer.

B.A 13-year-old girl could also read 34 books in one year.
