When you’re a preteen, a huge problem might be that you just have to have a new rock-rap CD, 1 your parents won’t give you the money for it. I thought life was so 2 when things like this happened-----until September 11, 2001.
I was in P.E. when the planes hit the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon. As soon as I got home and for weeks before, I saw the disaster 3 on TV. Seeing the innocent people running for their 4 as the debris(瓦砾) started coming down the fire and smoke rose out of the 5 brought tears to my eyes. I couldn’t help imagining what the people on the 6 and in the buildings were thinking and going through, not 7 what was going on. I admired the courage of the firefighters who rushed in and risked their own lives to 8 others. It tore my heart apart to watch the 9 looks on the faces of so many people who didn’t know if their loved ones were dead or alive while 10 in all the debris.
Then it 11 me: All my life I had thought mainly of myself. I had it easy in life and had been taking it all for granted.
A feeling of coldness 12 down my back, and I cried just thinking of the possibility that it could have easily 13 to my family. My mom or dad could have been killed like that, and I would never, ever see them again. I began to evaluate what a real 14 in life was.
This disaster 15 me that awful things can happen to anyone at any time. Now when my mom or dad or sister go somewhere, even if it’s just 16 the store, I try to remember to tell them that I love them because I know there is a 17 that I may never tell them that 18 .
Not getting a new CD is not going to 19 my life. I can live with those kinds of problems. But losing someone I love would 20 make my life miserable.

【解析】
试题分析：本文的主要内容是：曾经的我很自我，只想到自己，在发生9.11这次灾难后，我恍然大悟，要珍惜身边的亲人。这次灾难让我明白了失去挚爱的亲人才是最令人痛不欲生的事情。
1. 根据your parents won’t give you the money for it，可知前面是我想要的摇滚乐光盘，后面是父母不给钱买，是转折关系，所以用but，故选C。
2. 根据下文Not getting a new CD is not going to break my life，可知这里描述life，后面说到当这样的事情发生，即前文中我想要买摇滚乐光盘，父母不给钱买的事情，所以应该是负态度词，排除C和D中性词。B描述人指不愉快的，描述物的意思为不舒适的，所以选择A。
3.动作的主语是disaster灾难。occur和strike都表示发生的瞬间，这里提到随后的几周，明显是已经发生了，所以排除。happen表示偶然、碰巧发生。所以应选unfold，表示展开，一种逐步深入的感觉。故选D。
4. 具体名词找重复或相关对应，这里的灾难、瓦砾、火、烟都和人们的生命有直接关系，所以选lives。故选A。
5. 具体名词找重复或相关对应，烟是从楼里冒出来，所以选buildings。故选B.
6.具体名词，发生灾难的人是飞机上和楼上的，所以选planes。故选B。
7.此题的关键在于找到动作发出者是谁，动作发出者是前面的people，即遇到灾难的人们。他们不知道发生了什么，所以选knowing。caring表示关心，很容易就可以排除。容易误选的只有believing，但是只要记得believing的根本含义是认为，和thinking相同，即可一起排除了，故选 D。
8.动作发出者是消防员，所以是冒生命危险拯救别人，故选B。
9.描述looks，那些不知道自己心爱的人生死的人们，一定是负态度形容词。puzzle表示不明白的疑惑感，severe表示周围情况的严重性，dirty是表面上脏的感觉，都不合适。所以选择desperate绝望的，描述人物心理。，故选D。
10.此题为被动考察，动作发出者是心爱的人，所以不能是hidden被藏在和placed被放在。found被发现后当然知道生死，所以是trapped被困在，故选C。
11.根据All my life I had thought mainly of myself. I had it easy in life and had been taking it all for granted可知我受到了打击，故选A。
12.根据下文I cried just thinking of the possibility that it could have easily happened to my family可知这里想说一种冷的感觉从后背倾斜而下。故选C。
13.根据下文My mom or dad could have been killed like that, and I would never, ever see them again可知这里想表达可能会发生在我家里，happen发生 compare比较 relate联系 turn转动，故选A。
14.根据下文I can live with those kinds of problems，故选B。
15.这次灾难教会了我可怕的事情可能随时发生在任何人身上，persuade说服 remind提醒inform通知，故选C。
16.表示方向、目的地，用介词to，故选A。
17.根据This disaster taughtme that awful things can happen to anyone at any time.可知有可能我今后再也不能和她们说我爱她们，故选 C。
18.根据My mom or dad could have been killed like that, and I would never, ever see them again，故选D。
19.根据I can live with those kinds of problems可知经过这件事以后，不能买一张新的光盘已经不能破坏我的生活，故选D。
20.根据But losing someone I love可知失去至亲的人才会真正地令我痛不欲生，故选B。
考点：这是一篇叙事类短文。
点评：答题前一定要读懂全文，弄清文章要表达的思想，注意前后段落之间的关系。答题中，一定要认真分析，注意选项与上下文的关系，与前后单词的关系。对于一时没有太大的把握的题可以放到最后再来完成，因为有时答案可以从下文内容体现出来。答完后再通读一篇文章，看看所选选项能不能是语句通顺，语意连贯。

Microwaves may be great at warming up food, but what about warming people?
Using microwaves to directly heat owners of a room would save much of the energy wasted by heating walls and furniture. And despite popular ideas about microwaves, this technique would be safe, according to Charles R. Buffler of the Microwave Research Center in Marlborough, New Hampshire. Low-power microwaves only penetrate (贯穿) the skin (low-power microwave penetration in a ham is about 0.2 inches, for example) and with no negative effects.
To test this idea, Buffler subjected himself to microwaves in a special room using a standard 500-watt, 2459 MHz magnetron (磁控管). He found that a person will start to feel warmth at about 20 milliwatts per square centimeter (mw. /sq.cm.); a satisfactory feeling of warmth occurs between 35 and 50 mw./sq.cm. By comparison, a person standing in noonday summer sun feels the amount of 85 mw./sq.cm. And a frozen meat pie in your microwave oven receives about 1000 mw./sq. cm.
In houses of the future, each room could be provided with its own magnetron, says Buffler. When you stepped into the living room, for example, a motion detector would turn on the magnetron, filling the room with low-power microwaves. In the same way that a microwaves oven heats up a hamburger, but not the plate it’s on, you would feel warmth from the microwaves without changing the temperature of your coffee table. (You could, however, make your favorite easy chair even more comfortable by treating it with a radiation-absorbing chemical.)
While it might be some time before homeowners are comfortable enough with the idea to set up whole body microwave heaters in houses, Buffler says microwaves may attract livestock farmers. Lambs that are born outdoors in winter, for example, are frequently lost to cold. Microwaves could warm the lambs safely and quickly.
Which of the following can tell the main idea of the passage?
A. A new heating system. B. A new microwave oven.
C. A popular technique. D. The magnetron.
The test conducted by Buffler shows that when a person feels comfortable warmth, he receives about ____.
A. 20 mw. / sq. cm. B. 40 mw. / sq. cm.
C. 60 mw. / sq. cm. D. 85 mw. / sq. cm.
According to paragraph 4, which of the following fills the room with low-power microwaves?
A. The magnetron. B. The motion detector.
C. The microwave oven. D. The radiation-absorbing chemical.
Which of the following statements about microwave heaters would Buffler most probably agree with?
A. Microwave heaters will soon be widely used by homeowners.
B. Microwave heaters sometimes make people feel uncomfortable.
C. Microwave heaters will be probably first used by livestock farmers to protect their lambs in winter.
D. Microwave heaters cannot be accepted by the public because they are somewhat unsafe.

I know what you’re thinking : pizza （比萨饼）? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a. m. if you want to.
I know lots of women who skip breakfast （不吃早餐） , and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it . Some say they don’t have time. others think they’re “saving” calories （卡路里）, still others just don’t like breakfast food .
But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking , R , D , who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece. 21 Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southem California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.
So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers-it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow,” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it…you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects.
The word “leftovers” in Paragraph 1 probably means__________.
A.food remaining after a meal B. things left undone
C. meals made of vegetables D. pizza topped with fruit
What can we infer from the text?
A. Working women usually have breakfast in a hurry.
B. Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast.
C. There are some easy ways of cooking a meal.
D. Eating vegetables helps save energy.
According to the last paragraph, it is important to____________.
A. eat something for breakfast B. be careful about what you eat
C. heat up food before eating it D. eat calorie-controlled food
The text is written mainly for those_____________.
A. who go to work early B. who want to lose weight
C. who stay up late D. who eat before sleep
