    题目列表(包括答案和解析)



    Born into a farmer’s family, life was not easy when I was a kid. We were so poor that we often did not know where our next meal was coming from. I had to sell cabbages at the marketplace to support my family.
    A storyteller once came to the marketplace, and I went to listen to him. My mother was unhappy with me for forgetting my job. But that night, while she was making clothes for us under the weak light of an oil lamp, I couldn't help retelling stories I'd heard that day. She listened impatiently at first, since in her eyes professional（职业的） storytellers were smooth-talking men—nothing good ever came out of their mouths. But slowly she was attracted by my retold stories, and from that day on, she never gave me any task on market days, unspoken agreement to enjoy new stories. As a repayment（回报）for Mother's kindness and a way to show off my memory, I'd retell the stories for her in lively detail. Soon, she wasn't the only member of my audience, which later included my elder sisters, my aunts, even my stubborn grandmother.
    I knew she was worried about me. Talkative kids are not well thought of in our village, for they can bring trouble to themselves and to their families when they talk too much. Mother often reminded me not to talk so much, wanting me to be a silent and modest teenager. However, my natural desire（渴望）to talk never went away, and that is what makes my name – Mo Yan, which means ‘no speaking’. This strong wish to talk also improved my ability to express myself, which is important for writers who are also considered as storytellers.
    小题1:Mo Yan lived a/an ________ life when he was young.
    A．hardB．colourfulC．easyD．rich
    小题2:From the second paragraph, we can learn that ________.
    A．little Mo Yan was interested in selling vegetables
    B．his mother was attracted by the retold story at first
    C．his mother didn’t let him listen to the new stories again
    D．little Mo Yan had quite a good memory
    小题3:Why did his mother dislike the professional storytellers?
    A．Because she thought they never said anything good.
    B．Because she thought they couldn’t make much money.
    C．Because she thought they would affect Mo Yan’s schoolwork.
    D．Because she thought most people didn’t like listening to stories.
    小题4:In Mo Yan’s opinion, a writer should be a ________ child when they were young.
    A．silentB．modestC．talkativeD．trouble-making
    小题5:Which is the best title（标题）of the passage?
    A．My Unlucky ChildhoodB．A Storyteller’s Childhood
    C．My Kind GrandmotherD．More talking leads to success

    We use the Internet for many things: business, shopping, writing letters, talking to people, finding information, and so on. In recent years, a new kind of English has grown on the Internet. There’s no real word for it yet, so we’ll call it e-talk. People don’t like typing too much. To save time, they turn phrases (短语) into a few letters called acronyms(首字母缩略词). Acronyms are often used in chat rooms.
    Some of them are:
    BTW(by the way)     BRB (be right back)
    LOL (laughing out loud) IMO (in my opinion)
    People also use many abbreviations. They are shortened forms of words. Some common abbreviations are:
    info (information)    puter (computer)    pic (picture)      sec (second)
    We usually don’t see people when we communicate on the Net, so people have new ways to show feelings. Most people use their keyboards to draw “feeling”, such as:
    : ) (happy)     :-( (sad) ;    : P (joking)   : O (surprised)
    These days, many forums have picture feelings. For example:
    happy          sad         angry        cool
    There are even whole new words, like ‘newbie’ (someone who is new on a chat board or forum). When you write something bad about someone else, it’s called ‘flaming’ the person.
    It takes time to get used to e-talk. Also, different groups in the Net have their own special ways of communicating. Newbies sometimes have to ask other people what they mean. As the Internet grows, e-talk will continue to grow and change.
    小题1: Why do people type acronyms?
    A．To show their feelings.
    B．To make jokes.
    C．Because people can type them quickly.
    D．In this way, newbies won’t understand them.
    小题2:What does “My puter is not working well. :-( ” mean?
    A．The person is happy about getting a new computer.
    B．The person has to go away from their computer.
    C．The person is angry at somebody.
    D．The person is sad that his computer is having problems.
    小题3:If someone is angry, what may he type?
    A．B．C．LOLD．BRB
    小题4:E-talk will probably_________.
    A．keep changing
    B．stay the same
    C．be used by people on the telephone
    D．be easy for newbies to understand
    小题5:People can do the following through the Internet except _________.
    A. doing shopping                B. writing diaries
    C. eating foods                   C. playing games

    Last week we asked our reader a question，“What is the most unforgettable thing you have ever had?” Here are three readers' answers．

    Once I was on a weekend hike with my class．The teacher told us to be careful．I fell just as she finished talking and what was worse，my glasses were missing．I can’t see without my glasses! I thought it could be the end of my trip．But everyone said I shouldn’t be so sad and they would help me．Some classmates helped me when I walked and others told me about the wonderful birds and trees they were seeing．Sometimes when you lose something，you might find friends in its place．Later，someone noticed something in my shirt pocket and asked what it was．I touched my pocket．“It must be my glasses!” Everyone laughed．

    Many years ago，I found a photo of my grandmother when she was young．She was very beautiful．“This must belong to my mother，” I thought．We were having a class about family trees and I thought grandmother's photo would be good for the lesson．So I took it to school and showed my friends．Unluckily，I couldn't find it after that class．Later，when I got home from school，I told my mother about the photo．She was very sad and cried for it was the only picture she had of her mother．I felt sad．I still do．

    将下列各段按照正确的顺序重新排序，使文章通顺。

    A． Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them.

    B． Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list.” Said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”

    C．And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.

    D．Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to sit in my arms on the sofa and talk with me,”said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”

    E. Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: Suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut,” Joanna noted.
