解析【小题1】答案 B [从后面对10年级英语老师的叙述可知选B。上课的第一天,“我”询问一个高年级的学生关于Mrs. McNamara的情况,结果对方哈哈大笑,他知道,在后面她的课堂上有我难受的时候。对方不会因为“我”的询问而“道歉、喊叫”。]
【小题1】答案 A [他认为“我”到这个老师的班上学习会有“我”难受的时候。]
【小题1】答案 C [从文章叙述的作者的经历看,老师给“我们”的作文评分,再由同学评论“我”的作文,因此这是老师组织的一种教学活动,而不是老师对“我们”的评价。]
【小题1】答案 D [下文提到the homework reading判断选D。老师给“我们”布置的家庭作业是回家后进行阅读。]
【小题1】答案 B [第二天到学校,老师就在黑板上写下两或三个与“我们”头一天的课外阅读相关的话题作为写作任务。这里用(be) related to表示“与……有关”。A项“添加”;C项“做贡献”;D项“比较”。]
【小题1】答案 A [这是老师让学生根据话题写课堂作文,因此用expect sb to do sth表示“期待某人做某事”。B项“说服”;C项“允许”;D项“劝告”。]
【小题1】答案 B [第二天老师就把“我们”交的作文发下来,还给“我们”。而这些作文已经被老师批改过且评过分。从动作的顺序看,前面提到读书、写文章、修改、评分,因此这里表示把作文发还给“我们”。]
【小题1】答案 D [依次叫学生到全班学生面前。A项“故意”;B项“起初”;C项“偶然地”。]
【小题1】答案 C [老师把作文批改并发给“我们”后,此时要求“我们”依次当着全班同学的面朗读自己的作文,因此选C表示“朗读,宣读”。]
【小题1】答案 D [本题有一定难度。语境表示老师要求班上每个学生都要对被朗读的文章进行评论,否则的话,全班同学都要挨罚:降低成绩。]
【小题1】答案 D [作者在回顾“我”第一次尝到苦头时的情景,用experience表示“体验”她的教学方法。]
【小题1】答案 C [这里用bother to do sth表示“为某事操心”。“我”第一次上她的课时,懒得去做老师布置的课外阅读。undertake to do sth表示“许诺做某事”,不符合语境。]
【小题1】答案 D [这是回顾过去的经历。老师布置的课外阅读“我”没有看,因此写的作文是什么内容,有多糟糕,并且当堂朗读自己的作文,这是什么滋味,有多尴尬就可想而知了。]
【小题1】答案 B [这里用make a fool of表示“捉弄”,“我”让自己在全班同学面前出丑。]
【小题1】答案 A [从语境的逻辑关系判断选A。在Mrs. Mc Namara的课堂上,任何人都会遇到让自己尴尬的情景,要嘲笑别人需要勇气,而这样做也是愚蠢的,因为这样的情况随时会降临到嘲笑别人的同学身上。]
【小题1】答案 B [“我”在这次经历中感觉到的尴尬是发自内心的,同时“我”也下定决心不再这样。]
【小题1】答案 C [“我”下定决心,从此认真对待学习,坚决不让这样的事情再次发生。]
【小题1】答案 A [老师把“我们”的书面作文都存档放好,因此很容易从“我们”的作业中看到“我们”的成长与进步。]
【小题1】答案 C [从前面叙述的故事可知,这样的活动是老师的教学安排,任何人都不能逃避,因此选C,老师督促/逼着我们这样做。]
【小题1】答案 A [这里用did代替前面的could improve myself.老师让“我”认识到自己的真实情况,以使“我”进步,在她的督促下,“我”进步了。]

Once there was an 11-year-old boy who went fishing with his father in the middle of a New Hampshire lake. On the day before bass (巴斯鱼) season opened, they were fishing early in the evening, catching other fish with worms. Then the boy tied on a small silver lure (鱼饵) and put it into the lake. Suddenly he felt that something very big pulling on the lure. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank. Finally he lifted the tired fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.
The boy and his father looked at the big fish. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 pm – two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy. “You’ll have to put it back, son,” he said.
“Dad!” cried the boy, “There will be other fish,” said his father. “Not as big as this one,” cried the boy. He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were in sight in the moonlight. He looked again at his father.
Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed. He threw the huge bass into the black water. The big fish disappeared. The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish.
That was 34 years ago. Today the boy is successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place.
And he was right. He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. But he does see that same fish … again and again … every time he has an ethical (伦理的,道德的) decision to make. For, as his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.

C.The father lit a match in order to check the time. |

People always say that the earlier one learns a language, the it is to do so, in theory it is that, , in my opinion, that refers to spoken language. Capability(能力) to practice some essential(基本的) of a language and read between the lines can only be trained through proper reading ways and hard work .So spending money to help learn English may up with disappointment.

It is better to have the child learn Chinese than to have some difficulty learning English for several years. Having been engaged in English education, find that despite(尽管) their excellent , many students have command of English words and phrases. So I suggest that children

At some time in your life you may have a strong desire to do something strange or terrible. However, chances are that you don’t act on your impulse(冲动), but let it pass instead. You know that to take the action is wrong in some way and that other people will not accept your behavior.
Perhaps the most interesting thing about the phenomenon of taboo behavior is how it can change over the years within the same society, how certain behavior and attitudes once considered taboo can become perfectly acceptable and natural at another point in time. Topics such as death, for example, were once considered so upsetting and unpleasant that it was a taboo to even talk about them. Now with the publication of important books such as On Death and Dying and Learning to Say Goodbye, people have become more aware of the importance of expressing feelings about death and, as a result, are more willing to talk about this taboo subject.
One of the newest taboos in American society is the topic of fat. Unlike many other taboos, fat is a topic that Americans talk about constantly. It’s not taboo to talk about fat; it’s taboo to be fat. The “in” look is thin, not fat. In the work world, most companies prefer youthful-looking, trim executives to sell their image as well as their products to the public. The thin look is associated with youth, vigor, and success. The fat person, on the other hand, is thought of as lazy and lacking in energy, self-discipline, and self-respect. In an image-conscious(注意形象的) society like the U.S., thin is “in”, fat is “out”.
It’s not surprising, then, that millions of Americans have become obsessed with staying slim and “in shape”. The pursuit of a youthful physical appearance is not, however, the only reason for America’s fascination with diet and exercise. Recent research has shown the critical importance of diet and exercise for personal health. As in most technologically developed nations, the life-style of North Americans has changed dramatically during the course of the last century. Modern machines do all the physical labor that people were once forced to do by hand. Cars and buses transport us quickly from point to point. As a result of inactivity and disuse, people’s bodies can easily become weak and vulnerable to disease. In an effort to avoid such a fate, millions of Americans are spending more of their time exercising.
【小题1】 From the passage we can infer taboo is .
A.a strong desire to do something strange or terrible |
B.a crime committed on impulse |
C.behavior considered unacceptable in society’s eyes |
D.an unfavorable impression left on other people |

A.their changed life-style |
