8．It was one of the hottest days of the dry season．We had not seen rain in almost a month．The crops were dying．Cows had stopped giving milk．The streams were long gone back into the earth．If we didn't see some rain soon we would lose everything．
I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year-old son，Billy，walking toward the woods．He was obviously walking with a great effort…trying to be as still as possible．Minutes after he disappeared into the woods，he came running out again，toward the house．
Moments later，however，he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods．This activity went on for over an hour：walking cautiously to the woods，then running back to the house．Finally，my curiosity got the best of me．I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey．
He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked； being very careful not to spill the water he held in them．Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them．He had a much greater purpose．As I leaned in to spy on him，I saw the most amazing sight．
Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him．But Billy walked right up to them．I almost screamed for him to get away．And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground，obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion，lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boy's hand．
I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life．As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground，they were suddenly joined by other drops…and more drops…and more．I looked up at the sky．It was as if God，Himself，was weeping with pride．
21．Why did the author follow her son？D
A．Because there might be danger．
B．Because her son was doing a good deed．
C．Because she intended to help．
D．Because she was curious．
22．Which of the following statements is Not True according to the passage？C
A．Rain was in great need．
B．Billy carried water with his small hands．
C．There were few trees in the woods．
D．Billy walked into the woods and then returned over and over again．
23．Which is the correct order of the development of the story？B
①The author was moved to tears．
②Billy fed the water to the baby deer．
③Billy walked towards the large deer．
④It began to rain．
⑤The author followed Billy into the woods．
A．③②⑤①④
B．⑤③②①④
C．④①③②⑤
D．⑤②①③④
24．At the end of the story，the author might experience different feelings Except thatC
A．Billy was a pride．
B．God was touched by Billy's activity．
C．the rain should have dropped earlier．
D．it was worthwhile to have given birth to Billy．

解答 DCBC
21 D 细节理解题．根据第三段倒数第二句As I leaned in to spy on him，I saw the most amazing site．可知，好奇心促使作者要跟踪儿子．故选D．
22   C 推理判断题．根据Minutes after he disappeared into the woods可知如果只剩几个棵树的话，作者很容易就能看到儿子．故选C．
23   B 考查排序题．根据全文的内容可知，作者先跟踪儿子，然后，Billy走近成年鹿，喂小鹿水，作者受到感动，下雨．故选B．
24   C 细节理解题．根据文章最后一段they were suddenly joined by other drops…and more drops…and more．可知雨下的正是时候，而不是下的更早一点，故选C．

点评考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．

18．The other day in school we were discussing jobs．Our teacher，Mrs．Bolt，said that vocations were very important and that it was never too early to think about your life's work．Most of the children really weren't too sure about what they wanted to be．But I knew exactly what I wanted to be，and when Mrs．Bolt asked me，I replied"A truck driver．"
"A truck driver，"repeated Mrs．Bolt．"Why do you want to be a truck driver，Kenneth？"

The class laughed．
"Well，Kenneth，"answered Mrs．Bolt．"You certainly sound enthusiastic．I guessed that you don't like sitting at a desk or doing homework．Is that correct，Kenneth？"

19．"When I grow up，I want to be…"
Almost all of us have thought about，or been asked to think about，our future careers．Our answers may differ greatly．Even now your aspirations（志向，抱负）may have changed from when you were in primary school．
However，it seems that career choices aren't only based on personal taste．In a survey carried out by Teens，doctors，lawyers，and bankers were some of most popular careers that people said they hoped to follow．This is similar to a survey carried out in the UK in May 2016by job website-Co．uk，in which medicine was the top choice among UK teenagers aged between 13and 17．
Medicine and law are two of the oldest and best known professions．Their prestige （威望） may come from the fact that doctors and lawyers are muchrespected members of society，and they make good money．What's more，these professions are often seen as a sign of upward social class．
It is equally unsurprising that banking is now one of the most common career choices．Youngsters worldwide think of banking and see the money rolling in．Wealth is increasingly becoming one of the most important indicators（标志） of a successful career．
However，not every child has the makings of doctor，lawyer，or banker．They are those who see achievement and happiness in other areas．As the Teens'survey discovered，a variety of unconventional（非传统的） jobs-coffee shop owner，waiter at a fast food restaurant-are among teenagers'career choices．They can be equally interesting and rewarding jobs．
With every choice comes responsibility and challenge，and all career paths require specific education and training，you have to learn to balance optimism（乐观主义）and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills．
32．What is the passage mainly about？A
A．Careers in teenagers'mind．
B．Choosing a good job is very important．
C．Teenagers in the UK like doctors．
D．The choice of career needs challenge．
33．What is the top career choice among UK teenagers aged between 13and 17according to the article？A
A．Medicine．
B．Law．
C．Bank．
D．Education．
34．All of the following are the benefits of being a doctor or a lawyer exceptB．
A．respect from others
B．the oldest profession
C．high pay
D．upward social class
35．What can be learned from the last two paragraphs？B
A．Careers such as waiters are not as rewarding as doctors and lawyers．
B．Specific education and training can help get a good job．
C．Responsibility is the most important when you choose a good job．
D．Optimism and confidence is more important than being realistic when choosing careers．

20．Last Thursday，Michael and Linda stood behind large food trucks distributing meals to 4，000homeless people for their wedding reception on the border town of Kilis．The couple had decided that instead of hosting their friends and family for a traditional feast reception，they would feed the victims from an earthquake-stricken area．
The idea came from the bridegroom's father，Ted，who volunteers for a Turkish relief organization．For the past few years，the organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of people who've suffered from natural disasters．He approached a representative of the organization and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding them for the day．

18．Traditional fairytales are being abandoned by parents because they are too scary for their young children，a study found．
    Research revealed one in five parents has ditched old classics such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and Rapunzel in favour of more modern books．One third of parents said their children have been left in tears after hearing the horrible details of Little Red Riding Hood．And nearly half of mothers and fathers refuse to read Rumplestiltskin to their kids as the themes of the story are kidnapping and execution．Similarly，Goldilocks and the Three Bears was also a tale likely to be left on the book shelf as parents felt it forgives stealing．
    The survey of 2，000 adults was conducted to mark the launch of the hit US drama GRIMM，which starts tonight at 9pm on Watch，and sees six episodes based on traditional fairytales．The poll found a quarter of parents polled wouldn't consider reading a fairytale to their child until they had reached the age of five，as they prompt too many awkward questions from their offspring．
Steve Hornsey，General Manager of Watch，said："Bedtime stories are supposed to soothe children and send them off to sleep soundly．But as we see in GRIMM，fairytales can be dark and dramatic tales so it's understandable that parents worry about reading them to young children．"
"As adults we can see the innocence in fairytales，but a five year old with an over active imagination could take things too seriously．Despite the dark nature of classic fairytales，as we see in GRIMM，good will triumph over evil and there is always a moral to the story．"
   The study also found two thirds of mums and dads try to avoid stories which might give their children nightmares．
   However，half of parents said traditional tales are more likely to have a strong moral message than a lot of modern kids'books，such as The Gruffalo，The Hungary Caterpillar and the Mr．Men books．
36．Why some parents don't want to read Rumplestiltskin to their kids？D
A．Rumplestiltskin is too long
B．Rumplestiltskin is too difficult
C．Rumplestiltskin forgives stealing
D．Rumplestiltskin may have bad influence on Children
37．We can learn from paragraph 3 that Grimm isD
A．a fairytales book
B．a movie for children
C．a play loved by children
D．a drama based on traditional fairytales
38．The underlined word"soothe"in paragraph4 can be replaced byB
A．put down   B．calm down C．take down D．come down
39．Which of the following may Steve Hornsey agree to？A
A．There is a moral to a classic fairytale
B．Fairytales are dark
C．Adults take fairytales too seriously
D．Fairytales are not good for children's sleep
40．What's the author's attitude towards traditional fairytales？B
A．Optimistic    B．Not mentioned     C．Casual     D．Disapproving．
