9.It was a week before Christmas,but things were far from cheery.Our task was to deliver as many boxes of food as possible to those in need in Camden,New Jersey.There were no Christmas carolers(唱颂歌的人) walking in these streets that were lined with boarded-up(用木板封住的) houses and broken windows.Mothers kept their children close as they hurried down in the streets.It was mid-afternoon,but the bright sun couldn't warm the place.
Red tickets in the windows marked which houses we were to visit.Our white truck stopped in front of one house and our group knocked on the door.Our arms were filled with ham,bread and other essentials to make the perfect Christmas dinner.Four small faces glanced through the curtains and one exhausted mom answered the door.She seemed embarrassed to be caught in her nightgown(睡衣) with undone hair.She was in her late-20s,but her rough skin and tired eyes added years.
"Sacred Heart food deliver service,"I smiled."Where can we put this for you?"
She pointed to a place and as we entered the house,I noticed the conditions of the house they lived in.The children climbed around,wearing only diapers(尿布).There were no carpets,only cold concrete beneath our feet.There was no Christmas tree or decorations.My heart sank.It was so cold,and I found it hard to believe that this was the reality for this family.We set boxes down and the mother grabbed my hand.
"You don't know how much of a blessing this is to me and my family,"she said,crying."We are just getting by."I opened my arms and gave her a hug.
"Happy holidays!"I replied before I headed out the door.I realized how warm I felt inside.
This was unlike anything I had ever experienced.We cannot help what family we are born into,but we can help each other.

61.Why did the author say things were far from cheery?D
A.Because it was cold outside.
B.Because they had to visit their friends.
C.Because they had to work overtime every day.
D.Because they had lots of boxes of food to deliver to people in need.
62.Camden may be a place whereA.
A.the living conditions were terrible
B.people had no houses to live in
C.there was no sign of life
D.little sunshine was received
63.What impression did the woman leave on the author?B
A.She was shy and cold to visitors.
B.She looked much older than her age.
C.She wasn't good at dressing herself up.
D.She was very confident and energetic.
64.From what the woman said,we know thatD.
A.they were busy cleaning their house
B.they were looking for food and clothing
C.they were going to move away elsewhere
D.they were living a very poor life
65.We learn from the text thatC.
A.the poor can also help others
B.assisting the poor needs action
C.people should help each other
D.having more children causes poverty.

分析 本文属于记叙文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们讲述了自己在"Sacred Heart"当志愿者时为镇子上的穷人提供食物让他们能过圣诞节的故事.告诉我们人们应该互相帮助这个道理.

解答 61.D 细节理解题. 根据文章第一段中的"Our task was to deliver as many boxes of food as possible to those in need in Camden,New Jersey."可知事情不乐观的原因是他们有很多箱食物提供给需要的人,故选D.
62.A 推理判断题.根据第一段中的"There were no Christmas carolers(唱颂歌的人) walking in these streets that were lined with boarded-up(用木板封住的) houses and broken windows."街道上没有唱颂歌的人,街道两旁是用木板封住房屋,可知这个地方很贫穷,生活条件差,故选A.
63.B 细节理解题.根据文章第二段中的"She seemed embarrassed to be caught in her nightgown(睡衣) with undone hair.She was in her late-20s,but her rough skin and tired eyes added years."她快三十岁了,但她粗糙的皮肤和疲劳的眼睛增加了她的年龄,可知作者对女人的印象是她看起来比实际年龄老,故选B.
64.D 判断推理题.根据第五段中母亲的回答"You don't know how much of a blessing this is to me and my family"可知他们很需要这些东西,可推断出他们过着很贫穷的生活,没有钱买食物,故选D.
65.C 判断推理题.根据文章最后一段中的"We cannot help what family we are born into,but we can help each other."可知作者主要想通过文章呼吁人们应该互相帮助,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.

Dear Visitors,
Welcome to Hangzhou.Hangzhou is a beautiful city famous for her West Lake.As the number of visitor increasing year by year,we are sorry to see empty bottles and plastic bags floated on the lake,and even flowers picked up and trees destroyed,which does harm to the image of the city.I must appeal to everyone to behave properly.Here and now I strongly suggest:
First,strengthen the environment-protecting awareness of the people who throws rubbish here and there random.Second,it's high time that the government takes further measures to protect the beauty of West Lake such as placing good-looking dustbins at visitors'convenience.Third,be a volunteer to beautify the lake now and then,but I believe with the joint efforts of everyone there will exist forever the saying"Up above there is heaven; down below there are Suzhou and Hangzhou".

4.Much meaning can be conveyed,clearly,with our eyes,so it is often said that eyes can speak.
Do you have such kind of experience?In a bus you may look at a stranger,but not too long.And if he is sensing that he is being stared at,he may feel uncomfortable.
The same in daily life.If you are looked at for more than necessary,you will look at yourself up and down,to see if there is anything wrong with you.If nothing goes wrong,you will feel angry toward others'stare at you that way.Eyes do speak,right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive.But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex.If a man glances at a woman for more than 10seconds and refuses to move his gaze,his intentions are obvious,that is,he wishes to attract her attention,to make her understand that he is admiring her.
However,the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time,in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking,to tell him that he is attentive.
If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking,as if he tries to dominate you,you will feel uncomfortable.A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim,since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication.Quite the contrary.
In fact,continuous eye contact is confined to lovers only,who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time,to show affection that words cannot express.
Evidently,eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.
33.Which of the following behaviors is proper according to the passage?D
A.To the opposite sex,stare at him or her.
B.To a stranger,avoid looking at him or her.
C.In a conversation,look at the listener all the time.
D.Make eye contact depending on the relationship and different situations.
34.If two persons exchange eye contact gently for long,what is probably their relationship?B
A.Boss and employee.B.Lovers.C.Teacher and student.D.Strangers
35.What's the best title of the passage?C
A.Don't stare at others    
B.Body language is important
C.Eyes can speak 
D.Eye contact benefits you.

有利于培养阅读兴趣.
增加学习负担;
阅读花的时候太多,可能会影响学习;
图书不便于管理.

The monitor in my class has suggested that we donate some books in our homes and set up a book corner in my class…Most of us are in favour of the proposal,thinking we can share learning resources and save much money in this way.Also we can greatly increase our reading amount and broaden our horizon,which in return helps develop our interest in reading.
But some students are against it.They think this will add to our learning burden.Spending too much time in reading may also have a bad effect on our study.What's worse,books are difficult to manage.Some students are not willing to take charge of books.
In my opinion,this is a good idea.Not only does it benefit our study,but also it gives us a good chance to improve our ability of practical management..
