试题分析:乔治夫妇去商场时新车被偷,报警后发现车又回来了,而且车上还贴了纸条说明盗车的原因,盗车贼还送了两张电影票。夫妇俩拿着这两张电影票去看电影,回来后发现家里被洗劫一空。

1.had been stolen 考查动词时态和语态。When George and his wife left the supermarket, they were surprised to find that their new car (steal). 由语境可知在动作“left”和“were surprised to find”发生之前“steal”这个动作就完成了,所以要用过去完成时态;又主语“their new car”是动作“steal”的承受者,所以要用被动语态。故填had been stolen。

2. them 考查代词宾格。 They filed a report at the police station and a detective drove back to the parking lot …….由语义可知他们向警察局报案,所以说一个警察把他们带到停车场,drove是动词,后用宾格,故填them。

3.to look 考查动词不定式。……a detective drove back to the parking lot (look) for evidence. 由语义可知一个警察为了找证据把他们带到停车场,横线处是不定式做目的状语,表示“为了……”,故填to look。

4.amazement 考查固定结构。“to +one’s+情感名词”,意为“令某人……的是”“使某人感到……的是”。此处是指“令他们惊讶的是”,故用名词形式amazement。

5. 考查连词。the car had been returned there was a note in it that said……前句说车被还回来了,后句说里面有一张纸条,二者存在顺承关系,故填and。

6.for 考查介词。I apologize taking your car.意为:我为开走你的车而道歉。 固定用法:apologize for doing sth 为做某事而道歉。故填for。

7.was having 考查动词时态。由本句中“at that moment那时”可知此处用过去进行时态,故填was having。

8.inconvenience 考查名词辨析。从语境可知此处是小偷对George 夫妇说请原谅他给他们夫妇带来的不便。convenience 名词,便利,加上前缀“in”变成否定的,即“不便”。故填inconvenience。

9.when 考查连词。从语境可知当他们回家的时候,他们发现他的房子被洗劫一空了。此处填连词“当……时候”,故填when。

10.immediately 考查副词。此处修饰横线后的动词“found”,故用副词形式。immediate 形容词,突然;immediately 副词,突然地。故填immediately。

July 21st. 2007 was a typical English summer’s day—it rained for 24 hours! As usual, I rushed home from work at midday to check on the house. Nothing was amiss. By the time I left work at 5p.m., however, the road into our village was flooded. Our house had never been flooded but, as I opened the front door, a wave of waters greeted me. Thank God! The kids weren’t with me, because the house was 5 feet deep in water. We lost everything downstairs. And the plaster had to be torn off the wall’s ceilings pulled down.

At first we tried to push on through. We didn’t want to move the children out of home. So we camped upstairs. We put a sheet of plastic across the floor to protect us from the damp. But after three months, we felt very sick, so we move to a wooden house in a park. The house was small, but at first we were all just delighted to be in a new place. Unfortunately, things took longer than expected and we were there for 10 months. The life there was inconvenient. What surprised me most was how much I missed being part of a community(社区). We had lived in a friendly village with good neighbors, and I’d never thought how much I’d miss that.

Although our situation was very bad, it’s difficult to feel too sorry for yourself when you look at what’s happening elsewhere. I watched a news report about floods in Northern India and thought. “We didn’t have a straw hut(茅草房)that was for Christmas. But I can’t wait—I’m going to throw a party for our friends in the village to say thanks for their support. This year, I won’t need any gifts—living away from home for months has made me realize how little we actually need or miss all our possessions. Although we are replacing things, there’s really no rush—we have our home back. And that’s the main thing.

1.What does the underlined word “amiss” in the first paragraph mean?

A. Found. B. Missing. C. Right. D. Wrong.

2.It can be inferred from the text that the author _________.

A. cared much about her children

B. was sick of staying upstairs alone

C. could not stand living in a wooden house

D. did not deal well with her family affairs during the flood

3.Why does the author say that they were lucky in the third paragraph?

A. Because her situation was not serious.

B. Because some others suffered even more.

C. Because she had ever been to Northern India.

D. Because very few other places were also flooded.

4.What does the author mainly want to express by telling her story?

A. She realized she needed no more possession.

B. She valued human feelings more than before.

C. She found Christmas gifts no longer badly needed.

D. She thought her own home was the most important of all.

While students in Yinchuan are quite used to clear skies, Beijing teenagers are not so lucky. As another warm winter approaches, the city can expect the normal clouds of smoke caused by air pollution.

But things may start to improve soon. The government is co-operating with a US-based environmental protection agency to update existing buses and trucks with clean fuel technology. The new technology could reduce air pollutants in existing diesel engines(柴油机)by 40 percent. The programme will begin by testing buses in Beijing to see if the technology can be applied to them.

“We encourage the development of public transports. But at the same time we need to reduce pollution from them, ”said an official.

Efforts are being made to improve the capital’s environment with tighter controls on emissions(排放). Some heavily polluting factories and construction sites, such as those owned by the steel giant Shougang Group, have been asked to cut production in November and December or be closed.

Beijing was the third polluted city in the world at the end of last century, according to the UN. But thanks to recent measures, the capital has made some progress. Last year 224 clear days were rated as having good air quality. In 1998 the air quality index(指数)gave just 100 days as good.

“I am glad to see an improvement, ”said a senior 1 boy living in the northwest of Beijing. “Compared to other places, the air quality of Beijing is still worrying though. I hate pollution. Once I was riding my bike in the morning when I almost had a traffic accident because I couldn’t see a car only metres away from me in fog. ”

In early October, the skies were covered by such a thick fog that a display show by the visiting French Air Force was called off.

Rapid development, industry, traffic fumes and sandstorms from the desert all contribute to the city’s bad air.

1.The passage is mainly about .

A. a programme aiming at improving Beijing’s air quality

B. progress made in Beijing’s air quality

C. Beijing’s air pollution

D. the differences between Yinchuan and Beijing

2.Which of the following is NOT the measure taken or to be taken to improve Beijing’s air quality?

A. Clean fuel technology will be used in public transports.

B. Some factories have been asked to cut production.

C. Some construction sites have been told to be closed.

D. A display show of airplanes has been called off.

3.We can infer from the passage that, with the aim of being an ecological city, .

A. far more still needs to be done

B. nothing else needs to be done

C. all traffic has to be closed

D. the development of the city has to be slowed down

4.Which of the following is NOT correct according to the passage?

A. Beijing’s air quality is getting worse and worse.

B. Rapid development, industry, traffic fumes and sandstorms are all the causes of bad air quality.

C. People see clouds of smoke in the sky in the winter of Beijing.

D. The government is making efforts to stop air pollution.

Last year, I was on a plane with my friend, waiting for it to take off. The pilot’s voice was heard throughout the plane: “Sorry for the delay, ladies and gentlemen. Our engines don’t work. We are going to jump-start them. Once we get them going, we’ll get up in the air and see what happens.”

That was all he said. “See what happens?” Shouldn’t we have had a better plan than that? At that point. I could only laugh nervously. One woman started crying, “Oh no! We are going to crash!’’ There were sighs of hopelessness and anxiety, and we hadn’t even taken off yet.

The pilot even seemed unhappy. He told us our one engine was working double time, and his plan was to get up in the air and see what happens! Then we did. We got up in the air, and what happened? Nothing. We arrived in Norfolk, and no sooner had the wheels touched down than applause burst out as everyone on the airplane breathed a sigh of relief.

All too often, people stop trying to achieve their goals just because they don’t have a guaranteed (有保证的) result. But success will never be guaranteed. The best thing that you can do is just get up in the air, and see what happens. While I do prefer planning better than “see what happens” when it comes to flying, it really isn’t such a bad idea for life.

If your effort is to build a business then get up in the air and see what happens! Don’t give yourself all the reasons why you can’t. Do not wait until you have everything you need. You never will!

If your goal is to start a friendship, say “Hello”, get up in the air and see what happens! The results could be very rewarding. If your goal is to learn a new skill, get up in the air and see what happens! It might not be as difficult as your think. It could be fun!

1.How did the author feel when the pilot said the engines didn’t work?

A. Disappointed. B. Anxious.

C. Curious. D. Relieved.

2.The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means .

A. to think carefully before you make friends

B. to start to fly first to see what will happen in the sky

C. to make an effort even if the result is uncertain

D. to get up from the chair and greet somebody

3.What can be the best title for the passage?

A. We Will See What Happens

B. I Survived an Adventurous Flight

C. The Pilot Risked Our Lives

D. Making Plans Is Better Than Taking Chances
