14.Elizabeth and I are 18 now,and about to graduate.I think about our elementary-school friendship,but some memories have blurred (模糊).What happened that day in the fifth grade when Beth suddenly stopped speaking to me?Does she know that I've been thinking about her for seven years?If only we could go back,and discover what ended our relationship.
  I have to speak with Beth.I see her sometimes,and find out school is"fine".It's not the same.It never will be.Someone says that she's Liz now.What happened to Beth?
  I can't call her.Should I write?What if she doesn't answer me?How will I know what she's thinking?
  Yes,I'll write her a letter.These things are easier to express in writing."Dear Be-,"no,"Dear Li-,"no,"Dear Elizabeth,"I begin.The words flow freely,as seven year old memories are reborn.I ask her all the questions that have been left unanswered in my mind,and pray she will answer.I seal my thoughts in the perfect white envelope,and imagine Beth looking into her mailbox.Will she know why I'm writing?Maybe she once thought of writing the same letter.
  As the mailman takes my envelope from me forever,I wonder if I've made the right decision.Do I have the right to force myself into Beth's life again?Am I simply part of the past?I have taken the first step.Beth has control of the situation now.

60.C.推理判断题.根据文章最后一段"Hello?It's Elizabeth"可知Beth给作者回了电话,在收到信后回电话我们可推测他们弥补了他们的友谊;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.

2.House Sitting
In many countries of the world people do what is called house sitting.It means that if owners of the house are going away,they want someone to come into their home and look after the house and maybe pets while they are away.
In Australia,many people travel.After people retire,they might buy a van and travel all over the country.(71)B
So if someone wants to travel or go away for some reason,they might want someone in their home to care for it and keep the gardens tidy.House sitters might have to care for pets.Also,quite a few people have swimming pools in their back yard and they need cleaning.(72)A I feel it is a great way of seeing the country,because you go and stay in a new city,get to meet new people,and have time to go sightseeing in a new area.
(73)D There are websites where you find the advertisements by people who want to travel,and by replying to the advertisement,you can make arrangements to go and look after their home.
There are some requirements to be a house sitter.You must be a trusted person,so that the home owner knows you will not steal anything.You must be able to go when the house owner wants you to go,so you need lots of free time.(74)GYou need to be good with pets,able to care for cats and dogs,or other pets they may have.
Some house sitting jobs are just for a few days or a couple of weeks while the house owner have a short holiday.Sometimes it is for much longer.We have had one house sit for six months,while the home owner travelled to Europe.
(75)CThen you can travel to many different countries and stay there.One of the important things to get are references from the home owners where you have stayed.A reference is a written letter to say that you are trustworthy and have looked after their home well.You can show these letters to prospective house sitting jobs and they know you will do a good job.

A.I have done house sitting many times.
B.Thousands of people do this all the time.
C.It is also possible to do house sitting in other countries.
D.Generally you have many opportunities to get a house sitting job.
E.You must take a little care over what your description says about you.
F.This is an international house sitting service for all city and country areas.
G.You must have a good car,so you can travel to different parts of the country.

6.Ray's wedding had gone off smoothly.Everyone seemed to have had a good time.A few people had too good a time; they went home with designated (指派的) drivers.All evening,the gift table remained unguarded.Who would steal anything,Ray thought.He had never heard of such a thing happening at a wedding.But his best friend Aaron said there was a first time for everything.He strolled out regularly from the inside festivities (庆祝) to check on the gift table,making sure no one suspicious was hanging around it.
Ray and Julia went on a 3-week honeymoon to Italy right after the wedding.When they got back,they opened all the gifts and sent out thank-you notes.But there was one problem.A married couple that used to be good friends had apparently given nothing.This surprised Julia,because Walt and Mary said they were thrilled to be invited.And,they actually seemed to have had a great time at the wedding.Frankly,Ray didn't even care if they hadn't given a gift.He just needed to know whether to send a thank-you note.Ray called Aaron.Aaron said maybe Walt had left an envelope on the gift table like Aaron had."Yes,but we got your envelope with the cash inside,"Ray said.
"Maybe my envelope looked too thin,and some thief thought Walt's envelope looked nice and fat."
Aaron asked Ray if he had looked everywhere for Walt's gift.Had he called up the wedding site to see if anything had been left behind?Ray said that he had looked everywhere and made a lot of calls that were fruitless.
Ray didn't know what to do.If he sent Walt and Mary a thank-you note for a gift they hadn't given,they would be insulted.If he didn't send them a thank-you note for a gift they had given,they would get angry.
"What would you do?"Ray asked.Aaron said he would call Walt up and tell him the problem.
"You can't go wrong with simply being honest,"Aaron said.
"Oh,yes,you can,"Ray contradicted him."Sometimes it's best to let sleeping dogs lie."But he thought about it,and finally decided that Aaron was right.He called Walt and told him the problem.Walt said that yes,he had given an envelope.In fact,the envelope contained 500cash."500?!"Ray asked."That's a lot of cash,Walt!"Walt admitted that it was,but he had gotten a fat raise early that year and Ray's was the only wedding he'd been to in quite a while.Ray thanked him very much,and apologized sincerely for someone stealing Walt's generous gift.Walt told him that it was"only money".
When Ray told Aaron about Walt's gift,Aaron laughed."The only thief at the wedding was Walt!I quit playing cards with him last year because I caught him cheating.And it was only a $10pot!I'm sure I told you about that."
"Yes,you did tell me,"Ray said.But,of course,he had to send Walt a thank-you note anyway.

67.Which of the following is true according to the passage?D
A.Nobody checked on the gift table all evening.
B.Walt had surely gotten a fat raise early that year.
C.Stealing had never happened at a wedding.
D.Aaron looked on honesty as the best policy.
68.The underlined word"insulted"in Paragraph 5probably meansB.
A.deeply impressed  B.badly hurt  C.much discouraged  D.greatly moved
69.What kind of person is Ray?A
A.Considerate and polite.   B.Faithful and experienced.
C.Outgoing and determined.  D.Friendly and optimistic.
70.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?C
A.A Wedding Party    B.The Theft at the Wedding
C.The Wedding Gift   D.A Secret at the Wedding.

3.The difficulty I faced in learning English was how to develop a store of vocabulary.At first,I found it (76)boring to learn lists of vocabulary (77)by heart repeatedly.But things began to change after I (78)joined a club for astronomy lovers in our school.There I read lots of materials on space (79)written in English.To understand them,I had to look the words up in the (80)dictionary,consult the teacher or guess the new words myself./ (81)Whatis more,I communicated with my American e-pals on this topic via e-mail.I(82)felt in love with this way of English study (83)gradually(渐渐地).I found my vocabulary getting (84)larger than ever before.I came to realize that interest is the mother of (85)success(成功) and that we can learn English well through practice.

4.Homework
Do arithmetic problems 15 through 25.State the different forms of the verbs on page 50of your French workbook.Read pages 12through 20of the Shakespeare play,and don't forget to fill in the missing chemical symbols on the worksheet.
Sound like a list of your homework for the next few nights-or maybe even just for tonight?(71)It's your teachers'way of evaluating how much you understand what's going on in class.And it helps strengthen important concepts.
(72)C  It's inviting to start with the easy things to get them out of the way.However,you'll have the most energy and focus when you begin,so it's best to use this mental power on the subjects that are most challenging.Later,when you're more tired,you can focus on the simpler things.If you get stuck on a problem,try to figure it out as well as you can-but don't spend too much time on it because this can mess up your homework schedule for the rest of the night.(73)E  But don't pick someone whom you'll be up all night chatting with,or you'll never get it done!
Most people's attention spans aren't very long,so take some breaks while doing your homework.Sitting for too long without relaxing will make you less productive than if you stop every so often.Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most people.(74)D
Once your homework is done,you can check over it if you have extra time.Be sure to put it safely away in your backpack-there's nothing worse than having a completed assignment that you can't find the next morning or that gets ruined by a careless brother or sister.(75)F  Now you're free to hang out.

A.Homework is a major part of going to school.
B.Luckily,you can do a few things to do less homework.
C.When you start your homework,deal with the hardest tasks first.
D.But if you're really concentrating,wait until it's a good time to stop.
E.If you need to,ask an adult for help or call or email a classmate for advice.
F.And no teacher still believes that"chewed by the dog"line-even when it's true!
G.In conclusion,no one is expected to stay long,and people have very different learning styles.
