14.The girl ______ in America for years. After graduation,she returned home,quite at a loss during her hunt for a job.(  )
A.was studiedB.has been studied
C.studiedD.was studying

分析 这个女孩在美国学习了多年.毕业后回到了祖国,在找工作期间一筹莫展.

解答 答案:C.
根据后面的时间状语After graduation可知,在美国学习应该是发生在毕业前,所以用过去时态,结合选项A和B表达被动不合句意"这个女孩在美国学习了多年",可排除;而D项为过去进行时,和句中的时间状语for years矛盾;所以选C.介词短语at a loss意为"不知所措".

点评 对于时态的题目要注意句中的时间状语和句子所表达的含义,结合前后句来辨别所需要的时态.

6.Coffee is a little black-and-brown Australian dog.He's not a particularly bright dog.While Dad can make my sister and me afraid just by the tone of his voice,I have never heard him raise his voice at Coffee.In fact,one look from Coffee at the biscuit tin is enough to send my dad flying to get him a snack.Whenever we protest about the unfair treatment,Dad has a guilty smirk on his face.It has become a long-standing family joke that Coffee is the closest thing to a son Dad will ever have.
Then,five years ago,our lives were turned upside down when Dad suffered two major strokes within a month.For four months,mentally he was nonresponsive.We had to take turns standing by his bedside to protect him.We were exhausted but grateful that he was still alive.As the months went by,I couldn't help but talk about Coffee constantly,often hoping that Dad could show some awareness of what I said.
Then one day,without even realizing it,I blurted out,"Is Coffee a tiger?"Dad began to smile.It was the first sign in four months that Dad had showed awareness of what I said.Seeing this,the whole family felt a huge weight lift from our shoulders.
Over the next nine months,Dad had to relearn all the basic things we take for granted.Dad,who was a fiercely independent man with a successful career before,found it increasingly frustrating.The only thing that ever brought a smile to his face was talk of Coffee.
When we massaged Dad's arm and legs to prevent his muscles from weakening,I would say,"Now all you need is Coffee to give you a‘lick-lick'foot massage!"No matter how many times I repeated this comment,the whole family would laugh.

26.It can be inferred from the first paragraph that DadB.
A.liked sons more than daughters                B.had a preference for Coffee
C.was strict with his daughters                 D.felt guilty about raising Coffee

A.To kill the boredom.
B.To regain her dad's consciousness.
C.To laugh at the foolishness of Coffee.
D.To keep up her family's spirits.
28.How did the author feel after seeing Dad's response to her talking?C
A.Surprised.  B.Doubtful.  C.Relieved.  D.Regretful.

B.enjoyed being massaged by three women
C.often required the stories of Coffee.
D.would like Coffee to accompany him
30.What would be the best title for the passage?D
A.A dog rescues its owner from a danger.
B.A dog helps a family get together.
C.A dog becomes a topic of the family's talks.

9.The Truth Can Set You Free
 I recently got pulled over for speeding not far from my new home in Virginia.I hadn't been paying attention,and I had driven a few miles an hour over the speed limit.
"Can I see your license and registration?"the police officer asked me.I pulled both out for him,and he saw my Pittsburgh address on my Pennsylvania driver's license.
"What are you doing here?"he asked."Are you with the army?"
"No,I'm not."I answered.I explained that I had just moved to Virginia,and I hadn't had time to re-register yet.
"So what brings you here?"
 He had asked a direct question.Without thinking very hard,I gave him a direct answer."Well,officer,"I said,"since you've asked,I have cancer.I have just months to live.We've moved down here to be close to my wife's family."
"So you've got cancer,"he said flatly.He was trying to figure me out.Was I really dying?Was I lying?He took a long look at me."You know,for a guy who has only a few months to live,you sure look good."
 He was obviously thinking:"Either this guy is pulling one big fat line on me,or he's telling the truth."He was trying to question my honesty without directly calling me a liar.And so he had forced me to prove that I was being honest.
"Well,officer,I know that I look pretty healthy.I look great on the outside,but the tumors(肿瘤)are on the inside."And then,I don't know what possessed me,but I just did it.I pulled up my shirt,showing the operational scars.
 He looked at my scars.He looked in my eyes.He now knew he was talking to a dying man.Well,he wasn't taking this any further.He handed me back my license."Do me a favor."he said,"Slow down from now on."
 The awful truth had set me free.As he went back to his police car,I had a realization.I had been one of those gorgeous blondes (金发美女) who could bat her eyelashes and get out of tickets.I drove home under the speed limit,and I was smiling like a beauty queen.

11.Lee Kuan Yew emerged onto the international stage as the founding father of the state of Singapore,then a city of about 1million.He developed into a world statesman who acted as a kind of conscience to leaders around the globe.
Fate initially seemed not to have provided him with a stage on which to achieve more than modest local success.In the first phase of decolonization,Singapore emerged as a part of Malaya.It was cut loose because of tensions between Singapore's largely Chinese population and the Malay majority and,above all,to teach the city a lesson of dependency,Malaya undoubtedly expected that reality would cure Singapore of its independent spirit.
But great men become such through visions beyond material calculations.Lee challenged conventional wisdom by opting for statehood.The choice reflected a deep faith in the virtues of his people.He asserted that a city located on a sandbar with no economic resource to draw upon,and whose major industry as a colonial naval base had disappeared,could nevertheless thrive and achieve international reputation by building on its principal asset(财富):the intelligence,industry and dedication of its people.
A great leader takes his or her society from where it is to where it has never been----indeed,where it as yet cannot imagine being.By insisting on quality education,by suppressing corruption and by basing governance on merit.Lee and his colleagues raised the annual per capita income of their population from 500atthetimeofindependencein1965toroughly55,000today.In a generation,Singapore became an international financial center.,the leading intellectual metropolis of Southeast Asia,the location of the region's major hospitals and a favored site for conferences on international affairs.It did so by adhering to an extraordinary pragmatism:by opening careers to the best talents and encouraging them to adopt the best practices from all over the world..
Superior performance was one component of that achievement.Superior leadership was even more important.As the decades went by,it was moving----and inspirational----to see Lee.,the mayor of a medium-size city,become a mentor of global strategic order.
The great tragedy of Lee's life was that his beloved wife was felled by a stroke that left her a prisoner in her body,unable to communicate or receive communication.Through all that time,Lee sat by her bedside in the evening reading to her.He had faith that she understood despite the evidence to the contrary.
Perhaps this was Lee Kuan Yew's role in his era.He had the same hope for our world.He fought for its better instincts even when the evidence was ambiguous.But many of us heard him and will never forget him.

58.Why did Lee Kuan Yew choose to lead Singapore to be independent?B
A.He intended to act as a kind of conscience to leaders around the globe.
B.He determined his people shouldn't be subjected to Malaya anymore.
C.He had considerable confidence in the value of the city's assets.
D.He wanted Singapore to be the most powerful country worldwide.
59.From the underlined sentence in Paragraph2,we can know thatC.
A.Malaya expected Singapore to be powerful
B.Malaya had a desire to kick off Singapore
C.Malaya firmly believed Singapore would give in
D.Malaya didn't think Singapore possessed independent spirit
60.The fourth paragraph is organized toD.
A.illustrate how advanced Singapore has been today
B.demonstrate Lee Kuan Yew attached great importance to the talents
C.prove what a crucial decision Lee Kuan Yew once made
D.show the tremendous impact Lee Kuan Yew had on Singapore
61.Which of the following can best describe Lee Kuan Yew?B
A.Stubborn and arbitrary           
B.Aggressive and affectionate.
C.Demanding and bossy            
D.Outspoken and humorous.
