You must have read "The Tortoise and the Hare(《龟兔赛跑》)" when you were younger. So which animal are you? The tortoise or the hare? Do you rush around trying to do things as quickly as possible? Or do you deal your work at a slow , but steady(稳定的)pace? Whether you approach life like the tortoise or the hare can make a difference in the results you'll see.
Some will say that you should avoid being like the hare. After all. he was overconfident and finally lost the race. You may also have heard teachers say from time to time that "haste makes waste”. But what does that mean? Most people think it meant that the faster you do something the more likely it is that you'll make mistakes. Many teaches want you to approach your schoolwork thoughtfully and carefully.
But does haste always make waste? Not necessarily ! Some people are able to work quickly while also maintaining(保持)a high level of quality in all that they do. Recent research, however, is making the idea of haste making waste seem more believable
Researchers found that the brain changes into a special mode(模式)when forced to make rapid decisions. Overall, there appears to be a trade-off between speed and correctness. As the brain makes decisions more quickly, those decisions are usually built on less information, which often leads to a greater likelihood of mistakes.
When you approach things like the tortoise. you methodically and steadily work towards your goal. You might not arrive there first, but then again you might! In any case, you're likely to make fewer mistakes and you might just enjoy the journey more than the bare.
Goals are great to work towards, but often the achievements aren't what we remember. In the end, the most meaningful and important parts of our lives are the journeys we went on , not the destination we reached. So be the hare when you have to, but always remember that the slow and steady journey is what you’ll remember and treasure the most.
4. Why does the author mention the story in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To show its popularity.
C. To suggest its importance. D. To advise readers to read it.
5. For what purpose do teachers often say “haste makes waste to students?
A. To ask them not to waste their time.
B. To tell them it is OK to make mistakes.
C. To ask them to avoid making silly mistakes.
D. To tell them they should check their schoolwork.
6. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. How the brain collects the information it needs.
B. When the decision made by the brain is correct.
C. Why the quickly-made decision is often unwise.
D. What the relationship between lime and results is.
7. Which of the following may the author agree with?
A. Finishing the race is often a victory for everyone.
B. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.
C. The journey to every destination starts with a small step.
D. A destination is important because it guides us on the journey.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。全文以龟兔赛跑故事开篇，进而引发读者关于度过人生的两种方法的思考：是快速地做出行动，还是有条不紊地朝目标久久为功。作者在文章结尾处希望我们不仅只想着实现目标，更应学会享受过程中的美好。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一自然段“Whether you approach life like the tortoise or the hare can make a difference in the results you'll see.(无论你是像乌龟还是野兔那样对待生活，你都会看到不同的结果)”和最后自然段“So be the hare when you have to, but always remember that a slow and steady journey is what you'll remember and treasure the most.(所以，在必要的时候做那只兔子，但请一直记得，一次慢节奏的从容的旅行才是你最铭记并珍惜的)”可知，第一自然段提到龟兔赛跑的故事是为了引出“度过人生的两种方式”这一话题。故选A项。。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二自然段“But what does that mean? Most people think it meant that the faster you do something, the more likely it is that you'll make mistakes. Many teaches want you to approach your schoolwork thoughtfully and carefully.(但这意味着什么呢?大多数人认为这意味着你做某事速度越快，你就越有可能犯错。许多老师希望你认真认真地对待功课。)”可知，老师那样说的原因是他们认为做事的速度越快，就越有可能犯错，所以要求学生避免犯低级错误。故选C项。
【6题详解】
段落大意题。根据第四自然段段“As the brain makes decisions more quickly, those decisions are usually built on less information, which often leads to a greater likelihood of mistakes.(大脑越快做出决定，那些决定就越有可能是基于碎片化的信息，这通常会更有可能导致犯错)”可知，第四段主要介绍了大脑做出的快速决定为何往往是不明智的原因。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Goals are great to work towards, but often the achievements aren't what we remember. The end, the most meaningful and important parts of our lives are the journeys we went on, in the destination we reached.(目标实现对于工作很重要，但是我们所取得的成就往往不是最让我们铭记的。最终，我们人生最重要、最有意义的部分是我们经历的旅程和抵达的目的地)”可知，作者认为达成目标固然重要，但是真正让我们感到快乐的是朝着目标不断前进努力的这段经历，快乐不在于结果，而在于做的过程。故选B项。
C
Is homeschooling good or bad? That is a question that many parents ask themselves. In my opinion, homeschooled kids can give reliable answers.
Kayla Murray, who lives in Greensboro North Carolina, started homeschooling almost eight years ago, after attending two local schools. “Homeschooling is school at home,” like the name says, but it’s not just that/ she says. “You're able to learn more and do more.”
Having experienced learning at both school and home, Kayla says that she prefers the latter. “With homeschooling, I can do schoolwork in my pajamas, and no one cares,” she says, “you also have more chances. Earlier this year, my family and I were able to take a short vacation and go to an air show. My siblings and I get to take the day off for our birthdays. This year, I spent that time reading and playing the piano and guitar.”
There are, however, drawbacks of being homeschooled, Kayla says, especially “the lack of people”. While she doesn't miss homework, al school, she did enjoy getting to see my friends every day.”
Matthew Dimmette, also from Greensboro, used to be a homeschooler. He now attends public high school. He says being homeschooled is quite different from going to public school. The differences depend on how you arc homeschooled and the things you do. “For me, it wasn't really different in terms of the classes but the school environment was a big change atter hearting at home. says Matthew.
Talking about his homeschooling experience, Matthew says the best part of it was being able to learn what he wanted to. Yet the main disadvantage was that he couldn't do many experiments in homeschooling unless taking classes at different places. “My interest in science has been growing quickly in recent years, so I chose to go to public school,” he says.
8. What does Kayla like about learning at home?
A. She can spend her time more freely. B. She can always stay with her siblings.
C. She can play the instruments she likes. D. She can celebrate her birthday at home.
9. What does the underlined word “drawbacks” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Concerns. B. Reasons. C. Changes. D. Problem.
10. Why did Matthew choose to go to public school?
A. He wanted to make more friends. B. He wanted to do experiments in labs.
C. He wanted to take all kinds of classes D. He wanted to experience the school environment
11. What in the authors attitude cowards homeschooling?
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Uninterested. D. Unclear.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要通过Kayla Murray和Matthew Dimmette两名学生论述了他们对于在家接受教育的看法，以及在家接受教育的优缺点。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中““With homeschooling, I can do schoolwork in my pajamas, and no one cares,” she says, “you also have more chances. Earlier this year, my family and I were able to take a short vacation and go to an air show. My siblings and I get to take the day off for our birthdays. This year, I spent that time reading and playing the piano and guitar.”(“在家上学，我可以穿着睡衣做作业，没人会在意，”她说，“你也有更多的机会。今年早些时候，我和家人度过了一个短暂的假期，去看了一场航展。我和兄弟姐妹过生日的时候可以休息一天。今年，我把时间花在阅读、弹钢琴和弹吉他上。”)”可知，Kayla喜欢在家学习因为她可以更自由地支配她的时间。故选A。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“especially “the lack of people”. While she doesn't miss homework, al school, she did enjoy getting to see my friends every day.””可知，Kayla提到在家学习看不到人，虽然她从不错过家庭作业和学校，但她确实很享受每天都能见到我的朋友们。可知这是在家接受教育存在的问题，故画线词意思是“问题”。A. Concerns.关注；B. Reasons.理由；C. Changes.改变；D. Problem.问题。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Yet the main disadvantage was that he couldn't do many experiments in homeschooling unless taking classes at different places. “My interest in science has been growing quickly in recent years, so I chose to go to public school,” he says.(然而，主要的缺点是，除非在不同的地方上课，否则他不能在家庭教育方面做很多实验。“我对科学的兴趣近年来增长很快，所以我选择了公立学校，”他说)”可知，Matthew选择去公立学校因为他想在实验室里做实验。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Is homeschooling good or bad? That is a question that many parents ask themselves. In my opinion, homeschooled kids can give reliable answers.(在家教育是好还是坏？这是许多父母会扪心自问的问题。在我看来，在家上学的孩子可以给出可靠的答案)”结合文章主要通过Kayla Murray和Matthew Dimmette两名学生论述了他们对于在家接受教育的看法，以及在家接受教育的优缺点。文中没有涉及作者对在家接受教育的看法，即并不清楚作者对在家接受教育的态度。故选D。
D
I was at the hardware store the other day and overheard a woman tell Ed., the manager, that fall was her favorite time of year. Ed., because he liked to keep his customers happy, agreed that fall was a wonderful season, but I could tell he was lying.
I was going through my mind recently, trying to find sweet memories of fall. I failed. I met my wife in the summer and married her two summers later. My sons were born in the winter and summer, my granddaughter in the winter. I’ve been fried twice in my life, both in fall. One October, a truck carrying tofu ran a red light and hit me, destroying my favorite car, combining the three things I most hate - trucks, tofu and October.
I'm not saying fall is without its attractions. The leaves are beautiful. But fall's vacillation (立场摇摆)is troubling, its effort (努力)to please everyone, its continuous search for the middle ground to be all things to all people. Say what you will about summer and winter, at least they have the courage to keep their opinions strong, even if they kill us with extreme heat or cold.
I recently read a story of a man coming out of a three-month coma (昏迷). It started in early fall and ended just as winter came. I hope if I were ever in a coma I would be just as lucky as the man.
Upon my awakening, one of my families who stood around my bed would ask. "Don't you remember anything from the past three months?"
"Not the first thing," I would happily report.
If I ever have enough money. I'm going to buy a second home in Australia, so that when fall starts here, I can move there for three months, just when spring is starting.
12. What did Ed think of the customers words according to the author?
A. Ed understood them and supported the customer completely.
B. Ed might hold a different opinion on the topic.
C. Ed believed the customer wasn't telling the truth.
D. Ed thought they stood for most peoples' opinion.
13. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?
A The author has a big and loving family.
B. The author is having a hard time at work.
C. It is important to follow the rules of the road.
D. Nothing good has happened to the author in fall.
14. Why does the author say the man in Paragraph 4 was lucky?
A. Because he slept fall away.
B. Because he ho sweet memories of fall.
C. Because he dreamed of fill many times.
D. Because he was met by his family when waking up.
15. Which of the following does the author most want to do?
A. Drive tracks. B. Eat tofu dishes.
C. Watch leaves falling in fall. D. Move to Australia in October.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章，作者谈论了自己不喜欢秋天，想逃避秋天。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Ed., because he liked to keep his customers happy, agreed that fall was a wonderful season, but I could tell he was lying (埃德因为喜欢让他的客户高兴，同意秋天是一个美妙的季节，但我看得出他在撒谎。)”可推知，作者认为埃德对这个话题可能有不同的看法。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“One October, a truck carrying tofu ran a red light and hit me, destroying my favorite car, combining the three things I most hate - trucks, tofu. and October.（有一年十月，一辆装豆腐的卡车闯红灯撞了我，把我最喜欢的车撞坏了，其中包含了我最讨厌的三样东西——卡车，豆腐和十月。） ”可推知，作者在秋天没发生过什么好事。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“I recently read a story of a man coming out of a three-month coma. It started in early fall and ended just as winter came. I hope if I were ever in a coma I would be just as lucky as the man.（我最近读到一个故事，讲的是一个昏迷了三个月的男人苏醒过来。它开始于初秋，在冬天来临的时候结束。我希望如果我真的昏迷了，我能和他一样幸运。） ”可知，作者认为这个男人很幸运，是因为这个男人在整个秋天都是昏迷的，不用面对秋天。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“If I ever have enough money. I'm going to buy a second home in Australia, so that when fall starts here, I can move there for three months, just when spring is starting.（如果我有足够的钱。我打算在澳大利亚买再买一套房子，这样当这里秋天开始的时候，我就可以搬到那里住三个月，那时（这里的）春天正好开始。） ”可推知，作者最想在10月份去澳大利亚。故选D项。

Ash and smoke were shooting 30 kilometers into the sky from the volcano. The thick ash turned everything black. People couldn't see the sun. All the landmarks disappeared. The people could not see where to go or how to escape.(在拥挤的市场里，购物者一边喊一边指着城市附近的巨大火山维苏威火山。火山灰和烟雾从火山喷向30公里外的天空。厚厚的火山灰把一切都变成了黑色。人们看不到太阳。 所有的地标都消失了。人们不知道该往哪里走，也不知道如何逃跑)”可知，本段主要是在描述火山爆发时的情景，故E选项“一声震耳欲聋的巨响，庞贝城开始摇晃”符合语境，故选E。

Kitchens a till have pots on the stove. Walls still have love notes, pictures, and other messages.(面包店的烤箱里还有面包。厨房里的炉子上有锅。 墙壁上仍然有爱的便条、图片和其他信息)”可知，上文提到可以看到重要的建筑和富人曾经居住的美丽的家，后文则提到了一些生活中的日常用品，故A选项“你也可以窥探别人的生活”符合语境，故选A。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者通过在网上发帖，帮助父亲的面包店生意变好的故事。
【详解】1.考查非谓语动词。句意：五年前，我妈妈生病了，我爸爸不得不放弃他的面包生意。此处为短语have to do sth.，表示“不得不做某事”。不定式后用动词原形。故gave改为give。
2.考查副词。句意：他努力地开店，把一切都准备好了，但是没有一个人来买面包。修饰动词work，表示“努力地”应用副词hard；hardly表示“几乎不”不符合语境。故hardly改为hard。
3.考查连词。句意：他努力地开店，把一切都准备好了，但是没有一个人来买面包。上文提到努力开店把一切都准备好，后文提到没有人来买面包，前后为转折关系，应用连词but。故so改为but。
4.考查动词时态。句意：我决定鼓励人们去商店买些面包，让爸爸高兴起来。结合上文可知事情发生在过去，应用一般过去时。故decide改为decided。
5.考查固定短语。句意：我决定鼓励人们去商店买些面包，让爸爸高兴起来。结合句意表示“鼓励某人做某事”可知短语为encourage sb. to do sth.。故people后添加to。
6.考查非谓语动词。句意：所以我在网上发了一个帖子说，“我爸爸很伤心，因为没有人来他的新面包店。”分析句子结构可知say在句中应用非谓语动词形式，与逻辑主语post构成主动关系，故用现在分词作状语。故say改为saying。
7.考查状语从句。句意：第二天，当我来到爸爸的商店时，队伍排得很长，人们都站在外面。引导时间状语从句，表示“当……时候”应用when。故Where改为When。
8.考查副词。句意：第二天，当我来到爸爸的商店时，队伍排得很长，人们都站在外面。修饰后文形容词long应用副词so，构成so…that…引导结果状语从句。故very改为so。
9.考查名词的数。句意：我的帖子被分享了很多次，我爸爸的生意很快就比我预想的要大得多。time表示“次数”为可数名词，由many修饰应用复数形式。故time改为times。
10.考查比较级。句意：我的帖子被分享了很多次，我爸爸的生意很快就比我预想的要大得多。bigger已经为比较级形式，前面不再需要more。故去掉more。
