【解析】如果你总是接到陌生人不停打来的电话,一定会感到很苦恼。本文的作者就经历了这样一件事。当她了解到具体的真相时,真有些忍俊不禁。

【1】根据语境分析,作者一开始还是很有耐心的,因此用Sorry符合交际场合。句意:抱歉,您打错了。

【2】由语境可知,尽管作者做了解释,但对方还是打电话过来。由此可以看出,前后是转折关系,所以用But。

【3】由语境可知,这里表示的是对方一个电话接着一个电话打过来。此处是固定搭配,表示打电话,用make a call。

【4】因为作者误认为是同一个人打来的电话并惹得自己的孩子老是哭因此十分恼火,lose one's temper,意为发火。hope希望;interest兴趣;sense感觉,知觉。

【5】作者把电话从话机上拿开,想用电话打不通的方式阻止对方再次打电话。表示离开、远离,用off。

【6】显然作者把电话拿开的目的是使对方泄气,不至于再次打电话。所以用discourage。frighten使……害怕;puzzle使……迷惑;connect联系,连接。

【7】由语境可知,这里表达的意思是:作者刚把话筒放回到话机上,电话又打过来了。四个选项中只有called打电诗之意。

【8】根据语境分析,作者此时已经十分气恼,警告对方,如果再打骚扰电话,她就会报警。

【9】作者觉得已经没有必要再向对方解释,因此作者拿起话筒保持沉默(silent)。在这之前都是十分生气的,因此,如果选A,显然和前面表示转折的but相矛盾;而calm指的是心里的平静,很显然,作者此时的心情并不平静,也不符合语境。

【10】前面 it was the voice of a little girl. 告诉我们对方只是一个小女孩根据语境分析作者认为对方的父母对孩子没有管教好因此B项符合语境。

【11】从后文可知作者忍无可忍直接找对方的母亲讲话,demand to do sth. 表示强烈要求做某事符合作者当时的心情。refuse拒绝;start开始;prefer更喜欢。

12to one's surprise意为:让某人惊讶的是。以为小女孩的恶作剧会遭到她妈妈的批评,所以她不敢让她妈妈接电话,但是她却让她妈妈接了,这一点很出乎的预料。to one's disappointment 让某人失望的是;to one's joy 让某人髙兴的是;to one's satisfaction让某人满意的是。

13从前文It was three in the afternoon以及 At 6:30 pm, the phone rang for about the 25th time. 可知作者一下午都在不停地接听电话。

14根据此处的语境可知,作者把几十个女孩打电话误以为是一个女孩打电话,因此对方的母亲向作者解释:这绝对是女儿给作者打的第一个电话。

15后文the new assistant有原词出现老师把新来的助教的电话给全班女同学以便于及时沟通。

16老师把电话号码给错了因此用by mistake错误地符合语境。

17因为老师给错了电话号码,因此全班30个女生电话还没有打完,到了晚上九点还在打电话。still意为:仍然。

18上文已经有说明,老师给错了电话号码。

【19】由下文的"It had turned into a joke now!"可以看出作者已经知道事情的缘由因此她现在不生气而是觉得可笑。

【20】作者当时绝对不会想到原来是一个班所有的女生给她打电话。这里使用了虚拟语气。

【题目】The statistics I’ve cited and the living examples are all too familiar to you. But what may not be so familiar will be the increasing number of women who are looking actively for advancement of for a new job in your offices. This woman may be equipped with professional skills and perhaps valuable experience. She will not be content to be Executive Assistant to Mr. Seldom Seen of the Assistant Vice President’s Girl Friday, who is the only one who comes in on Saturday.

She is the symbol of what I call the Second Wave of Feminism. She is the modern woman who is determined to be.

Her forerunner was the radical feminist who interpreted her trapped position as a female as oppression by the master class of men. Men, she believed, had created a domestic, servile role for women in order that men could have the career and the opportunity to participate in making the great decisions of society. Thus the radical feminist held that women through history had been oppressed and dehumanized, mainly because man chose to exploit his wife and the mother of his children. Sometimes it was deliberate exploitation and sometimes it was the innocence of never looking beneath the pretensions of life.

The radical feminists found strength in banding together. Coming to recognize each other for the first time, they could explore their own identities, realize their own power, and view the male and his system as the common enemy. The first phases of feminism in the last five years often took on this militant, class-warfare tone. Betty Friedan, Gloria Steinem, Germaine Greer, and many others hammered home their ideas with a persistence that aroused and intrigued many of the brightest and most able women in the country. Consciousness-raising groups allowed women to explore both their identities and their dreams—and the two were often found in direct conflict.

What is the stereotyped role of American women? Marriage. A son. Two daughters. Breakfast. Ironing. Lunch. Bowling, maybe a garden club of for the very daring, non-credit courses in ceramics. Perhaps an occasional cocktail party. Dinner. Football or baseball on TV. Each day the same. Never any growth in expectations—unless it is growth because the husband has succeeded. The inevitable question: “Is that all there is to life?”

The rapid growth of many feminist organizations attests to the fact that these radical feminists had touched some vital nerves. The magazine “Ms.” was born in the year of the death of the magazine “Life.” But too often the consciousness-raising sessions became ends in themselves. Too often sexism reversed itself and man-hating was encouraged. Many had been with the male chauvinist.

It is not difficult, therefore, to detect a trend toward moderation. Consciousness-raising increasingly is regarded as a means to independence and fulfillment, rather than a ceremony of fulfillment itself. Genuine independence can be realized through competence, through finding a career, through the use of education. Remember that for many decades the education of women was not supposed to be useful.

【2What was the author’s attitude toward the radical?

B. He opposed it strongly.

C. He disapproved to some extent.

D. He ignored it completely.

A. Women were exploited by the male.

B. Women were independent of the male.

C. Women’s lives were deprived by the male.

科目:高中英语 来源: 题型:

【题目】 Apparently everyone knows that global warming only makes climate more extreme. A hot, dry summer has caused another flood of such claims. And one of the players that benefit the most from this story is the media: the idea of “extreme” climate simply makes for more exciting news.

Consider Paul Krugman writing breathlessly in The New York Times about the “rising incidence of extreme events.” He claims that global warming caused the current drought in America’s Midwest, and that supposedly record-high corn prices could cause a global food crisis(危机)。

But the United Nations’s latest assessment tells us precisely the opposite—there has an overall slight tendency toward less dryness in North America. Moreover, there is no way that Krugman could have identified this drought as being caused by global warming without a time machine since climate models estimate that such detection will be possible by 2048, at the earliest.

And, fortunately, this year’s drought appears unlikely to cause a food crisis, as global rice and wheat supplies are plentiful. Moreover, Krugman overlooks inflation(通货膨胀):Prices have increased six-fold since 1969.So, the inflation-adjusted price of corn was higher throughout most of the 1970s.

Finally, Krugman forgets that concerns about global warming are the main reason that corn prices have skyrocketed since 2005.Nowadays 40 percent of corn grown in the United States is used to produce ethanol(乙醇),which raises the price of corn –at the expense of many of the world’s poorest people.

Bill Mickbben similarly worries in The Guardian About the Midwest drought and corn prices.He confidently tells us that fierce wildfires from New Mexico and Colorado to Siberia are “exactly” what the early stages of global warming look like.

In fact, the latest study on global wildfire suggests that fire incidence has declined over the past 70 years and is now close to its preindustrial level.

When well—meaning campaigners want us to pay attention to global warming, they often end up making overstatements. And exaggerated(夸张的) claims merely fuel public distrust and unconcern. That is unfortunate, because global warming is a real problem, and we do need to address it.

【1】In what way do the media benefit from extreme weather?

A. They can give voice to different views.

B. They can make themselves better known.

C. They can choose from a greater variety of topics.

D. They can attract people’s attention to their reports.

【2】 What is the author’s comment on Krugman’s claim about the current drought in America’s Midwest?

A. It will eventually get proof in 2048.

B. It is based on an erroneous climate model.

C. So far there is no way to prove its validity.

D. A time machine is needed to tell if it is true.

【3】What is the chief reason for the rise in corn prices according to the author?

A. Inflation rates have been skyrocketing since the 1970s.

B. A considerable part of corn is used to produce green fuel.

C. Climate change has caused corn supply to drop markedly.

D. Demand for food has been rising in the developing countries.

【4】 What does the author think of the exaggerated claims in the media about global warming?

A. They lead to public distrust about science.

B. They create confusion about climate change,

C. They are strategies to raise public awareness.

D. They do a disservice to addressing the problem.
