分析 本文讲述了美国影视演员Christopher Reeve的故事,早期他出演了许多成功的电影,不幸的是1995年,因一次意外落马事故而瘫痪,医生预料他可能会死去,但他却又凭借顽强的毅力和勇气开始了一种新的生活.

解答 41.was;考查系动词,be born in 是固定短语,意为"出生于…".
42.when;考查时间状语从句,分析句意为"当他8岁的时候出演了一部校园剧",故用when引导一个时间状语从句.
43.successful;考查形容词,此处用形容词形式successful作定语,修饰名词films.
44.for;考查介词,be famous for 是固定短语,意为"以…著名".
45.Unluckily;考查副词,后面讲到的是 Christopher Reeve 的不幸遭遇,又因在句中作状语,所以这里要用luck的否定副词形式Unluckily. 
46.broke;考查并列成分,句子中的动词fell和broke是并列谓语,故时态保持一致,用一般过去时.
47.However;考查连词,空格前面讲到"医生认为他活不下来了",后面又说"他取得了惊人的进步",所以前后应是转折关系,故用However.
48.amazing;考查分词作形容词,现在分词作形容词修饰物,过去分词作形容词修饰人,此处要修饰的是progress,故用现在分词形式amazing.
49.his;考查固定搭配,on one's own 是固定短语,意为"独立地;独自地".   
50.a;考查冠词,此处不定冠词a表示泛指,意为"一种新的生活".

点评 语法填空是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识的运用能力,在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意,在读懂短文的基础上,结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析,逐题解答.

13.An apprenticeship is a form of on-the-job training that combines workplace experience and classroom learning.It can last anywhere from one to six years,but four years is typical for most.An apprentice spends most of the time in a wrkplace environment learning the practical skills of a career from a journeyman-someone who has done the job for many years.The rest of the apprentice's time is spent in a classroom environment learning the theoretical(理论的)skills the career requires.Being an apprentice is a full-time undertaking.
One of the advantages of apprenticeship is that it does not cost apprentices anything.The companies that hire them pay for school.What's more,it offers apprentices an"earn while you learn"opportunity.They usually start out at half the pay of a journeyman,and the pay increases gradually as they move further along in the job and studies.Near the end of the apprenticeship,their wages are usually 90percent of what a journeyman would receive.Apprenticeship also pays off for employers.It can offer employers a pool of well-trained workers to draw from
Despite the advantages,apprentices are usually required to work during the day and attend classes at night,which leaves little time for anything else.Sometimes,they might be laid off if business for the employers is slow.
Once they have completed the apprenticeship and become journeymen,they receive a nationally recognized and portable certification and their pay also increases again.Some journeymen continue employment with the companies they apprenticed with; others go onto different companies or become self-employed contractors.
54.How different is an apprentice from a journeyman?B
A.An apprentice has more theoretical skills.
B.An apprentice has less practical experience.
C.An apprentice needn't pay for school.
D.An apprentice owns a nationally recognized certification.
55.Which of the following is NOT the advantage of apprenticeship?C
A.It saves lots of money for apprentices to learn the skills.
B.It brings apprentices some earnings before they get a job.
C.It allows apprentices to earn the same wages as journeymen.
D.It helps employers take on more qualified workers.
56.What can we infer about the apprenticeship?D
A.Most apprentices feel greatly comfortable with their work and life.
B.Most journeymen tend to leave the companies they apprenticed with.
C.Apprentices can finally get a pay increase from the journeymen.
D.Some apprentices may come to the attention of employers during their apprenticeship.
57.What is the tone of the writer in this passage?C
A.Positive.
B.Negative.
C.Objective.
D.Argumentative.

1.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Chinese parents are very generous when it comes to educating their children.Not caring about the money,parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England,the US or Australia.They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn a musical instrument or ballet,or other classes that will give them a head start in life.The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is,the better it is.So parents will spend unreasonable amount of money on education.Even poor couples will buy computers for their sons or daughters.
However,what most parents fail to see is that the best education they can give to their children is usually very cheap.
Parents can see that their children's skills vary,skilled in some areas while poor in others.What most parents fail to realize though,is that today's children lack self-respect and self-confidence.
The reasons are that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple-choice tests and how to study well,but parents are not teaching them the most important skills:they need to be confident,happy and clever.
Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking,sewing and doing other housework.
Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life.Cooking demands patience and time.It is an enjoyable but difficult experience.A good cook always tries to improve his cooking,so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully.His result,a well-cooked dinner,will give him much satisfaction and a lot of confidence.These activities are not only teaching a child to work,but rather to think,and to use his mind.And that is more important.

18.A 17-year-old boy,caught sending text messages in class,was recently sent to the vice principal's office.The vice principal,Steve Gallagher,told the boy he needed to focus on the teacher,not his cellphone.The boy listened politely and nodded,and that's when Mr.Gallagher noticed the student's fingers  moving on his lap.He was testing while being scolded for texting."It was a subconscious act,"says Mr.Gallagher,who took the phone away."Young people today are connected socially from the moment they open their eyes in the morning until they colse their eyes at night.It's compulsive."
A study this year by psychology students at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain,Ga.,found that the more time young people spend on Facebook,the more likely they are to have lower grades and weaker study habits.Heavy Facebook users show signs of being more sociable,but they are also more likely to be anxious,hostile or depressed.(Doctors,meanwhile,are now laming addictions to‘night texting'for disturbing the sleep patterns of teens.)
Almost a quarter of today's teens check Facebook more than 10 times a day,according to a 2009 survey by Common Sense Media,a nonprofit group that monitors media's impact on families.Will these young people get rid of this habit once they enter the work force,or will employers come to see texting and‘social-network checking'as accepted parts of the workday?
Think back,When today's older workers were in their 20s,they might have taken a break on the job to call friends and make after-work plans.In those earlier eras,companies discouraged non-business-related calls,and someone who made personal calls all day risked being fired.It was impossible to imagine the constant back-and-forth texting that defines interactions among young people today.
Educators are also being asked by parents,students and educational strategists to reconsider their rules."In past generations,students got in trouble for passing notes in class.Now students are good at texting with their phones still in their pockets,"says 40-year-old Mr.Gallagher,the vice principal,"and they're able to communicate with someone one floor down and three rows over.Students are just fundamentally different today.They will take suspensions rather than give up their phones."
66.The underlined word"a subconscious act"in the first paragraph refers to an actB        
A.on purpose                                                         
B.without realization
C.in secret                                                               D.with care
67.Young people addicted to the use of FacebookC.
A.are good at dealing with the social relationships and concentrate on their study
B.have high spirits and positive attitudes towards their life and work
C.have been influenced mentally in the aspects of behaviors and habits
D.are always in bad mood and have poor performance in every respect
68.Through the situation of today's older workers in their 20s,it can be inferred thatD        
A.the employers will not accept young people's sending text messages
B.a cellphone is a must for today's older workers instead of young people
C.The employers prefer older workers to young  people
D.the employers will find it hard to control the interaction among young people  
69.Mr.Gallagher reminds us that the students in the past and those todayC.
A.like to break rules and have the same means of sending messages
B.are always the big problem for the educations and their parents
C.like sending text messages but those today do it in a more secret and skillful way
D.cannot live without a cellphone
70.What's the best title of the passage?B
A.Teenagers and Cellphones
B.Teenagers'Texting Addiction
C.Employers and Teenagers
D.Teenagers'Education.

Since we are full,it's time to go to find a nice place for a sleep.Bye!

19.They like using the Internet.They have lots of pocket money to spend.And they spend a higher proportion of it online than the rest of us.Teenagers are just the sort of people an online seller is interested in,and the things they want to buy-games,CDs and clothing-are easily sold on the Web.
But paying online is a tricky business for consumers who are too young to own credit cards.Most have to use a parent's card.They want a service that allows them to spend money.
That may come sooner than they think:new ways to take pocket money into cyber (网络的) space are coming out rapidly on both sides of the Atlantic.If successful,these products can stimulate (刺激)online sales.
In general,teenagers spend huge amounts:153bn (billion) in the US last year and£20bn annually in the UK.Most teenagers have access to the Internet at home or at school-88 percent in the US,69 percent in the UK.According to the Jupiter Research,one in eight of those with Internet access has bought something online-mainly CDs and books.
In most cases,parents pay for these purchases with credit cards,an arrangement that is often unsatisfactory for them and their children.Pressing parents to spend online is less productive than pressing on the high street.They are more likely to ask"Why?"if you ask to spend some money online.
One way to help teenagers change notes and coins into cyber cash is through prepaid cards such as Internet Cash in the US and Smart cards in the UK.Similar to those for pay-as-you-go mobile telephones,they are sold in amounts such as£20 or $50 with a concealed (隐藏的) 14-digit number that can be used to load the cash into an online account.
25.What does the word"They"in paragraph 1refer to?C
A.Sellers.
B.Buyers.
C.Teenagers.
D.Parents.
26.According to the passage,which of the following statements is TRUE?A
A.More than half of the teenagers in the US and the UK have Internet access.
B.Teenagers pay for goods online with their own credit cards.
C.Most teenagers in the US and the UK have bought something online.
D.Teenagers found it easier to persuade parents to buy online than in a shop.
27.A new way to help teenagers shop online is touseC.
A.a new machine
B.special coins and notes
C.prepaid cards
D.pay-as-you-go mobile phones
28.What is the passage mainly about?D
A.Online shopping traps.
B.Internet users in the US and the UK.
C.New credit cards for parents.
D.The arrival of cyber pocket money.

11.Psychologists(心里学家)at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand are studying the compulsive(强迫的) shopping as a behavioral disorder similar to compulsive eating.Compulsive shoppers frequently buy more than they can afford or more than they need,and it causes them distress.
"It becomes a problem when you are out of control,"psychology lecturer Neville Blampied said."When you are feeling bad and blue,what do you do?Some people eat chocolate cake and ice cream.Some people take the credit card and go out to the shop."Bank managers understand the problem because they have to deal with people who have to be persuaded to stop using their cards drawing money.
    Compulsive shopping,known as oniomania(购物癖),was first discovered in 1915.Few studies have been done on the problem.
    An advertisement in a Christchurch paper,calling for people to take part in an experimental treatment program designed by Mr.Wilson,attracted 10replies.But the problem,said Mr.Wilson,is clearly not rare.He thinks that compulsive shopping should be treated with drugs."As psychologists we are interested in non-drug treatments for behavioral difficulties,"Mr.Wilson said.
    Compulsive eaters or shoppers get a kick from their habit."Both activities provide an immediate kind of kick and you feel a bit better,"he said."You have long-term problems,but human beings are extremely good at not seeing long-term problems and are very sensitive to short-term benefits,"he said.
    The aim of the treatment was to help people find better ways of managing their emotions.The program,consisting of 10one-hour weekly lessons and two follow-up treatments,is loosely based on teaching stress management.
"You often have to start to get people to recognize their emotions correctly.Not being able to know what you really feel weakens your ability to solve the problems connected with what's making you feel that way,"Mr.Wilson said.

66.What is this article mostly about?B
A.Signs of compulsive shopping.
B.Studies of compulsive shopping.
C.comparison of compulsive shopping and compulsive eating.
D.An experimental treatment program designed by Mr.Wilson.
67.The compulsive shoppers will go shopping whenC.
A.they have lots of money        
B.they are taking drugs
C.they are feeling sad            
D.they win a prize
68.What does the underlined word"distress"in the first paragraph mean?B
A.comfort       
B.pain        
C.excitement        
D.curiosity
69.Which of the following is considered important in treating compulsive shoppers?B
A.Teaching them to manage their money better.
B.Teaching them to understand their emotions.
C.Persuading them not to draw money from the bank.
D.Treating them with right drugs.
70.When the writer says that compulsive shoppers get a kick from their habit,he means that theyD.
A.feel distressed after their wild shopping
B.feel better after treatment from psychologists
C.are better able to deal with stress problems
D.have a feeling of excitement after shopping.
