【4】paintings

【5】to remove

【6】an

【7】showed

【8】She

【9】who/that

【10】giving

【解析】

试题分析:本文介绍了一个勇敢的女仆。

【1】amazed 根据句意可知此处用一般过去时态的被动语态,故填amazed。

【2】valuable 形容词修饰名词,故填valuable。

【3】of 固定词组:think highly of 高度评价,故填of。

【4】paintings 根据句意可知此处用名词的复数形式,故填paintings。

【5】to remove 固定形式:in order to do sth.为了做某事。故填to remove。

【6】an 句意:一个非正式的调查。informal以元音开头,所以前面加“an”表示“一”。

【7】showed 此空前面是一个定语从句,后面是一个宾语从句,所以这里缺少一个谓语动词,根据句意可知用一般过去时态,故填showed。

【8】She 根据前面的a maid一个女仆,可知此空填She,特别注意用大写开头。

【9】who/that 此处考查定语从句,the enemies是先行词,从句缺少引导词,缺少主语,故填who/that。

【10】giving 固定搭配:be worth doing值得做某事,故填giving。

【知识归纳】

1. 固定短语

be worried about 为---担忧;be concerned about对---牵挂;be anxious about 对---焦虑;be curious about 对---好奇;be upset about对---烦恼;be amazed about 对---感到惊讶。

2. be worth doing值得做某事,be well worth doing sth.非常值得做某事。

3.不定冠词a 和an的用法。a用在以元音开头的词前,表示“一”; an用在以辅音开头的词前,表示“一”。比如66小题an 句意:一个非正式的调查。informal以元音开头,所以前面加“an”表示“一”。an important meeting 一个重要的会议;an interesting story 一个有趣的故事;an old man 一位老人;an hour 一小时;an honest boy 一个诚实的男孩;an American lawyer一个美国的律师; a useful tool 一个有用的工具;a European friend一位欧洲的朋友。

Believe it or not, many of the biggest change in how English is spoken have come from common people in the streets. And one of the most important places which English has changed is the playground! These playgrounds can be any place where the young people meet, such like a sports field or a beach. Often words using by black kids in big cities become popular for other kids many years later. On the beaches of southern California, teenagers invented words to describe what they felt when they surfed. These words found its way into the high schools and then to other places. Similar changes happen among young people in Ireland and Australia. Children from one group would find ways to play with another group more easily. Often they made new words just develop an identity different from their parents.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

There are various aspects that go into making a successful school, and success can be measured in various ways.Often, the teachers are praised for a school’s success and blamed for its failure.Yet, in order for a school to be effective, it must be a place where teaching and learning can easily take place, and that requires the hard work of more than just educators.Students must take learning into their own hands and feel as if what they are doing is as important as it actually is.This can only be done with the cooperation of every adult that is involved in the students’ life.Some of these individuals often go unnoticed, yet the role they play in the students’ lives is immeasurable.

In the school, administrative assistants greet students at the start of the day and answer a large quantity of questions.When an assistant remembers a student’s name or even something special about that student, it communicates to him that he is cared for.The assistant can also give that extra encouragement for a student to make better choices, especially when they are visiting the principal’s office.

Meanwhile, though cafeteria workers have a short space of time to interact with students, they can make a big difference as well.Beyond meeting nutritional needs, cafeteria workers may also on occasion meet the emotional needs of the students they serve.Students benefit from positive interaction with adults, and cafeteria workers may give that extra bit of encouragement that a child needs.

Custodians(管理员)are usually underappreciated for what they offer to schools.They have to be knowledgeable about everything from cleaning to fixing the most intricate(复杂的tools.They get to school early in the morning before teachers arrive and lock up late at night after the last student has left from the after-school event.They also make sure teachers are equipped with the necessary items and prepare the rooms so that they are ready for learning.A great custodian also gives that kind word or extra smile to that student who needs it most.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

Last Sunday I made a visit to some new neighbors down the block.No specific in mind, just an opportunity to sit at the kitchen table, have some tea and chat.As I did so, it occurred to me how rare the Sunday visit has become.

When I was a kid in New Jersey of the 1960s, Sunday visits were routine.Most stores were closed, almost nobody worked, and the highways, as a result, were not desperate steeplechases(障碍赛跑)they have become today.My family normally traveled eight city blocks to the home of my grandmother, where adults would sit on the front porch and chat while we children played hide-and-seek.

The Sunday visit was something to desire strongly.It was the repetition to church, our reward for an hour of devotion, an opportunity to take advantage of the fact that Dad was not at work, we were not in school, and there was no housework that couldn’t wait until Monday.Sunday was, indeed, different from the other days of the week, because everyone seemed to be on the same schedule, which means that there was one day when everyone seemed to have time for everybody else.

Sunday as a day of rest is, or was, so deeply rooted in the culture that it’s surprising to find that, in a short span of time, it has almost entirely lost this association.In my childhood, it was assumed that everyone would either be home or visiting someone else’s home on Sunday.But now the question is, “What do you plan to DO this Sunday?” The answer can range from going to the mall, to participating in a road race, to Montreal for lunch.If one were to respond, “I’m making a Sunday visit to family,” such an answer would feel strange, which sounds like an echo from another era.

I suppose I should be grateful to live in Maine, a state of small towns, abundant land and tight relationships.Even though folks work as hard here as they do anywhere else, the state’s powerfully rural feature still keeps at least remnants(残余部分)of the moral of yesterday’s America, where people had to depend on one another in the face of economic vagaries(反复无常的情况)and a challenging environment.

【1】The writer’s general impression of the Sunday in the past was a day when__.

A.everyone was paying a visit to some relatives far away

B.everyone seemed to be free for others

C.Dad was not at work while Mom was busy cleaning the house

D.nearly every adult would go to church and children weren’t at school

【2】In the fourth paragraph, the writer compares the response “I’m making a Sunday visit to family” to an echo from another era because_____.

A.people nowadays prefer staying at home on Sunday

B.such answers are rarely heard in our modern society

C.people in the city dislike being disturbed on Sunday

D.visiting someone on Sunday was routine in the past

【3】From the last paragraph we may infer that_____.

A.people in Maine suffer more from economic depression and the changed environment

B.people in Maine have abandoned their tradition and lived an absolutely new life

C.land in Maine is short, thus the relationship between people is tense

D.people in Maine tend to help each other out of necessity

【4】What’s the main idea of the passage?

A.Doing many activities on Sunday is beneficial.

B.We should often travel a long distance to visit some friends and relatives.

C.Nowadays, Sunday has almost lost its association as a day of rest.

D.We should abandon some old tradition.

As we get older, most of us worry about grey hair, wrinkles and maintaining a youthful body. 【1】 Here, Mr. Rubin, a voice expert, reveals how to keep your voice youthful.

Drink more fluid and avoid spicy food

You need water for the vocal cords(声带)to vibrate well.The body must keep absorbing enough water to make the vocal cords operate well.Drinking 1.5 liters of water a day at intervals of 15 minutes is very important.2

Rest the throat and talk regularly

The vocal cords can be scarred if you use your voice during a bad cough.If you have a case of laryngitis(喉炎)with a cold, you should rest your voice for a day or two, and seek medical advice.

Simply staying sociable and using your voice is very important.“As older people have less mobile, they can become socially isolated and speak less,” says Mr. Rubin.“The elderly need to communicate with people more.3

4

Good posture is essential to keeping the voice young, so we’d better stand properly.Exercise helps you take deeper breaths as it means there is better airflow through the voice box, producing a stronger tone.

Sing in the shower

This is one of the best ways to preserve your voice, as it keeps the larynx muscles strong while the steam lubricates the voice box.“ 5 says Mr. Rubin.Joining a choir is one of the best ways to preserve a youthful tone.

A.Improve your posture

B.By using the vocal cords, they enable the ageing process to slow down.

C.But people often don’t realize the voice needs looking after.

D.The Voice of Young Science programme encourages early career researchers to play an active role in public debates about science.

E.Singing is to the voice what gymnastics are to human beings.

F.Using the vocal cords regularly will definitely age our voice more quickly.

G.Mr. Rubin advises avoiding foods with an annoying effect on the stomach, such as onions, chili, fizzy drinks and chocolate.

Strange things were happening in the countryside of northeast Hebei. For three days water in the village wells rose and fell, rose and fell. Farmers noticed that the well walls had deep cracks in it. A smelly gas comes out of the cracks. In the farmyards, the chickens and even the pigs were so nervous to eat. Mice ran out of the fields looking for place to hide. Fish jumped out of their bowls and ponds. At about 3:00 am in July 28, 1976, some people saw bright lights in the sky. The sound of planes could be heard of outside the city of Tangshan even when no planes were in the sky. In the city, the water pipes in some buildings cracked and bursting. But the one million people of the city, that thought little of these events, were asleep as usually that night.
