    A．Both the director and the writer B．Both of the director and the writer
    C．The director and the writer D．The director and writer

    D

    解析试题分析：句意：在今天晚会上，这个导演兼作家受到了最高了嘉奖。本句中的谓语动词为is，为单数形式，故表示一个人，The director and writer表示导演兼作家，而The director and the writer表示导演和作家，是两个人，故选D
    考点：主谓一致
    点评：高考涉及到的主谓一致的情况较多，以单数名词或代词、动词不定式短语、动名词短语或从句作主语时，谓语动词一般用单数形式；主语为复数时，谓语动词用复数形式。与本题类似的是a director and the writer也表示导演兼作家，都指同一个人是，只用一个冠词即可。平时的学习中遇到了这样的语言点首先要将其理解，把握好考试的难度，并进行记忆。

    There are two ways to save money traveling. The first way is to get the best deals on the specific things you want. There is a limitation to this type of approach (途径，方法) though. If you find the lowest price on the best hotel in Honolulu at the height of the season, you will save money, but still have a very expensive vacation. Trying to get exactly what you want will generally be an expensive proposition, in travel and in life.
    The other approach is to be a true opportunist. This will be difficult for some of you, and entirely unacceptable to others. Nonetheless (尽管如此)，the travelers who get to travel the most, go to the widest variety of places, learn the most and do the most, are the opportunists. This will be true until you are so wealthy that you have no monetary (货币的；钱的)limits.
    The first time I went to Ecuador, I went there because it was cheap. If it wasn’t, I would have had a great time—somewhere else. The trip lasted a month, and cost $1045, which included airfare and even the $130 fee for a guide to take me to the top or glacier (冰川) covered Mount Chimborazo.
    I cut the cost by taking a bus from my home in Michigan to Miami, and back again when I returned from Ecuador. The round-trip ticket cost $158. The round-trip flight to Quito from Miami was only $256, because it was a courier (信使，通讯员) flight, which meant I signed for some luggage(car parts), and  could only take carry-on luggage.
    Never did I feel deprived, or bored. I had a great time, eating wherever it was cheap and clean, doing all sorts of inexpensive, but interesting things, and traveling across the country to climb Chimborazo. I also met and fell in love with my wife Ana.
    Being an opportunist means you’ll have just as much variety, and probably almost everything you want—eventually. You just have to stop trying to get exactly what you want exactly when you want it. If the guide that took me up Chimborazo hadn’t dropped his price from $200 to $130, I would have spent $2 for a bus and gone hiking on EI Altar, another great Andean mountain. That would have left me with enough money for several other minor adventures.
    【小题1】The underlined phrase “the best deals” in the first paragraph probably refers to ______.

    A．the best serviceB． the lowest price
    C．the cheapest goodsD． the best approaches
    【小题2】The return tickets from his hometown to Quito cost the author ______.
    A．$128B． $256C． $207D． $414
    【小题3】The last paragraph was to tell us how to ______.
    A．save money for minor adventures
    B．cut down traveling costs.
    C．deal with different situations
    D．become opportunist travelers

    My newly-rented small apartment was far away from the centre of London and it was becoming essential for me to find a job, so finally I spent a whole morning getting to town and putting my name down to be considered by London Transport for a job on the underground. They were looking for guards, not drivers. This suited me. I couldn’t drive a car but thought that I could probably guard a train, and perhaps continue to write my poems between stations. The writers Keats and Chekhov had been doctors. T.S. Eliot had worked in a bank and Wallace Stevens for an insurance company. I’d be a subway guard. I could see myself being cheerful, useful, a good man in a crisis. Obviously I’d be overqualified but I was willing to forget about that in return for a steady income and travel privileges — those being particularly welcome to someone living a long way from the city centre.
    The next day I sat down, with almost a hundred other candidates, for the intelligence test. I must have done all right because after about half an hour’s wait I was sent into another room for a psychological test. This time there were only about fifty candidates. The interviewer sat at a desk. Candidates were signaled forward to occupy the seat opposite him when the previous occupant had been dismissed, after a greater or shorter time. Obviously the long interviews were the more successful ones. Some of the interviews were as short as five minutes. Mine was the only one that lasted a minute and a half.
    I can remember the questions now: “Why did you leave your last job?” “Why did you leave your job before that?” “And the one before that?” I can’t recall my answers, except that they were short at first and grew progressively shorter. His closing statement, I thought, revealed (揭示) a lack of sensitivity which helped to explain why as a psychologist, he had risen no higher than the underground railway. “You’ve failed the psychological test and we are unable to offer you a position.”
    Failing to get that job was my low point. Or so I thought, believing that the work was easy. Actually, such jobs — being a postman is another one I still desire — demand exactly the sort of elementary yet responsible awareness that the habitual dreamer is least qualified to give. But I was still far short of full self-understanding. I was also short of cash.
    【小题1】The writer applied for the job chiefly because _________.

    A．he wanted to work in the centre of London
    B．he could no longer afford to live without one
    C．he was not interested in any other available job
    D．he had received some suitable training
    【小题2】The writer thought he was overqualified for the job because _________.
    A．he often traveled undergroundB．he had written many poems
    C．he could deal with difficult situations D．he had worked in a company
    【小题3】The length of his interview meant that _________.
    A．he was not going to be offered the job
    B．he had not done well in the intelligence test
    C．he did not like the interviewer at all
    D．he had little work experience to talk about
    【小题4】What does the writer realize now that he did not realize then?
    A．How unpleasant ordinary jobs can be. B．How difficult it is to be a poet.
    C．How unsuitable he was for the job.D．How badly he did in the interview.

    科目：高中英语 来源：2013届广东省汕头市金山中学高三上学期期中考试英语试卷（带解析） 题型：阅读理解

    The teacher was leaving the village, and everybody seemed sorry.  The miller at Cresscombe lent him the small cart and horse to carry his goods to Christminster, the city of his destination, such a vehicle proving of quite enough size for the teacher’s belongings.  For his only article, in addition to the packing-case of books, was a piano that he had bought when he thought of learning instrumental music.  But the eagerness having faded, he had never acquired any skill in playing, and the purchased article had been a permanent trouble to him.
    The headmaster had gone away for the day, being a man who disliked the sight of changes.  He did not mean to return till the evening, when the new teacher would have arrived, and everything would be smooth again.
    The blacksmith, the farm bailiff and the teacher were standing in confused attitudes in the sitting room before the instrument.  The teacher had remarked that even if he got it into the cart he should not know what to do with it on his arrival at Christminster, since he was only going into a temporary place just at first.
    A little boy of eleven, who had been assisting in the packing, joined the group of men, and said, “Aunt has got a fuel-house, and it could be put there, perhaps, till you’ve found a place to settle in, sir.”
    “Good idea,” said the blacksmith.
    The smith and the bailiff started to see about the possibility of the suggested shelter, and the boy and the teacher were left standing alone.
    “Sorry I am going, Jude.” said the latter gently.
    Tears rose into the boy’s eyes.  He admitted that he was sorry.
    “So am I,” said Mr. Phillotson.
    “Why do you go, sir?” asked the boy.
    “Well ----- don’t speak of this everywhere.  You know what a university is, and a university degree?  It is the necessary hallmark of a man who wants to do anything in teaching.  My scheme, or dream, is to be a university graduate.  By going to live at Christminster, I shall be at headquarters, so to speak, and if my scheme is practicable at all, I consider that being on the spot will afford me a better chance.”
    The smith and his companion returned.  Old Miss Fawley’s fuel-house was practicable; and she seemed willing to give the instrument standing-room there.  So it was left in the school till the evening, when more hands would be available for removing it; and the teacher gave a final glance round.
    At nine o’clock Mr. Phillotson mounted beside his box of books, and waved his friends good-bye.
    【小题1】It can be inferred that the teacher _______.

    A．was not getting on well with the headmaster
    B．had lived a rather simple life in the village
    C．was likely to continue to practice playing the piano
    D．would get a rise in the city on arriving there
    【小题2】The motivation of the teacher’s moving lay in his _________.
    A．ambitionB．devotionC．admirationD．inspiration
    【小题3】The boy named Jude may be described as _________.
    A．polite, generous and cheerfulB．active, modest and friendly
    C．kind, bright and helpfulD．calm, confident and humorous
    【小题4】From the passage, we could get a general idea of the teacher’s ______.
    A．love for music and his dislike for musical instruments
    B．hard work in the village and his strong interest in city life
    C．friendship with some villagers and also conflicts with others
    D．eagerness to go to the city and his love for the village
    【小题5】Which person does the underlined “his companion” refer to?
    A．Mr. PhillotsonB．Miss FawleyC．The bailiffD．The headmaster
