课时分层作业(十二)

Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

When the telephone rings late at night，most women guess it must be one of only four or five people calling.A sister？Maybe.An emergency？Possibly.A mother？Probably not at that time of night.Much more probably it is a close female friend calling to tell you that she is heartbroken because she has split up with her boyfriend again or perhaps simply that a good movie has just started on TV.

At a time when families are spread far and wide and marriages often end in divorce，friendships are becoming more and more important.Erika，a 32­year­old lawyer，is strengthened by her ten­year friendship with her married friend Jane.“I was very sick one night，so I called Jane at about 3：00 a．m.to talk about it，” she says.“She was very supportive and even came over to take me to the doctor's.”

As American TV shows like Friends have become more popular，many of us are beginning to see the value of such friendships.TV shows like this tell us that our romantic relationships may not last，but we need to keep in touch with our close friends if we want to survive.

With Erika's family 200 miles away，it is Jane who keeps a spare set of keys to Erika's apartment and waters her plants whenever she is away.“Having Jane around gives me a certain amount of freedom.It is not the kind of thing that you could ask anyone to do，but she knows I would do the same for her.”Jane，who may move to a different city soon，is worried about leaving such a support system of friends.“My friends have more to do with my life than my parents and，therefore，I don't have to spend a lot of time explaining things to them.Friends are more up to date with what is happening.”

C．Broken up.     D．Taken up.

C　[词义猜测题。根据画线短语所在句可推知，句意为“更有可能的是，一位亲密的女性朋友打电话告诉你她很伤心，因为她又和男友分手了……”。split up表示“分手”，故C项正确。]

2．According to the passage，which statement is TRUE about Erika?

A．She is Jane's male friend.

B．She treasures Jane's friendship.

C．She has been married for 10 years.

D．She lives far away from Jane.

D．Friendship Strengthens Romance

A　[标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文以Erika与Jane的友谊和美剧Friends为例，讲述并论证了“友情十分重要”的观点，故A项最能体现主题，适合作文章的标题。count在此处为不及物动词，意为“重要”，相当于动词matter。]

B

One of the most important things in the world is friendship.In order to have friends，you have to be a friend.But how can you be a good friend at school?

Listen—Listen when they are talking.Don't say anything unless they ask you a question.Sometimes it's not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.

Help them—If your friend is ever in need of something，be there to help them.You should try to put them first，but make sure you don't do everything they want you to do.Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes in case (以防)they forget one.Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.

Be there for them—Try to make something for your friend to help make them feel better in hard times.Making cards and  encouraging them are among the nicest things you can do for a  friend.Marilyn Monroe，a famous U．S.actor，once said，“I often make mistakes.Sometimes I am out of control.But if you can't stay with me at my worst，you are sure not to deserve (值得)to be with me at my best.” Always remember this！If you don't want to stay with your friends when they're in hard times，then you don't deserve to be with them when they're having a good time!

________—Try to organize some activities with your friends ahead of time.Go shopping，go for ice cream，have a party，go to a movie and so on.Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy.By planning things together，you both can have a good time.And you'll remember these things when you're all old!

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。友谊是世界上最珍贵的一种感情，那么你怎么才能够收获他人的友谊，让他或她做你的朋友呢？你要做的首先是要成为他人的朋友。本文告诉了你怎么做。

4．While your friend is talking to you about his or her feelings，what should you do?

A．To give him or her some advice.

B．To just listen unless asked.

C．To calm him or her down.

D．To share your feelings as well.

B　[细节理解题。从第二段中“they just need someone to talk to about their feelings”可知，有时候，他们(朋友)需要的只是有人能够听他们谈论内心情感；再结合本段主题句“Listen—Listen when they are talking.”可知，选B。]

5．What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe's words?

A．Life without a friend is death.

B．A friend is easier lost than found.

C．A friend in need is a friend indeed.

D．A man is known by his friends.

C　[推理判断题。“But if you can't stay with me at my worst，you are sure not to deserve to be with me at my best.”意为“在我最糟糕的日子里如果你不能和我在一起，那么你就不配在我最好的时候和我在一起”，故选C项“患难见真情”。]

6．Which of the following can be put in the blank of the last paragraph?

A．Make plans    B．Enjoy yourself

C．Understand your friends D．Play with your friends

A　[段落大意题。根据本段主题句中“Try to organize some activities with your friends ahead of time.”的关键词ahead of time以及“By planning things together，you both can have a good time.”中的by planning things together可知，本段主要讲“和朋友在一起做事情也要有所计划”，故选A。]

7．What is the passage mainly about?

A．How to find a good friend.

B．How to help friends in trouble.

C．How to be a good friend.

D．How to make more friends.

C　[主旨大意题。根据第一段的主题句“But how can you be a good friend at school？”以及接下来的四条建议可知，本文主要讲“如何做一个好的朋友”，故选C项。]

Ⅱ.读后续写

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Mo was waiting in the corridor outside the exam room.She was feeling sick.She had two exams that day and physics was the first.She really hated physics.It was her worst subject.Terry looked back at her from the front of the line，and then looked away quickly.Mo thought she looked guilty.She didn't have a problem with physics.She didn't have a problem with anything...Miss Perfect!

“Hi，Mo，it's your favourite exam today，” said Nima，laughing as she joined the line.Terry was looking at Mo again，“So what's wrong with her？”asked Nima.“I thought you were friends.” “Yes，so did I，”said Mo.“But she hasn't spoken to me for two weeks.She promised to help me review for the physics exam too，but then she ignored all my calls and texts.And when I rang her house，her mum just told me she was busy.She's forgotten who her friend is！” said Mo angrily.“ Are you listening to me？” Mr.Reed was talking to the class and the other students were going into the exam room.Mo gave Nima a worried look and followed them.

Mo couldn't answer question number five.She  looked up and saw Terry sitting two rows in front of her.Mo couldn't believe it！Terry was holding her  phone on her knees under the desk and reading from  it.Is that how Terry always got such good grades？She  felt really angry at Terry，but she didn't know what to  do.She thought about telling the teacher，but what  would everyone else think of her？“Stop writing and  put your pens down，” said Mr.Reed as he started to  collect the exam papers.Oh no，Mo hadn't answered  two of the questions.She was going to fail again!

Mo wanted to talk to Terry at lunch time，but  she couldn't find her anywhere.The next exam was  history.That was Mo's favourite subject but she  wasn't feeling good.Mo went to the library to study，but she couldn't concentrate.She didn't know what to  do with Terry.She thought about telling a teacher，but  everyone would hate her if she did that.“It isn't  fair！” she thought.“ Terry was getting good grades by  cheating all that time.” Just then，Mr.Reed walked  past her desk.“Mr.Reed...”

Mo was sitting behind Terry again in the history exam that afternoon.Mo was feeling terrible.Why had she told Mr.Reed？But it was too late.And anyway，Terry didn't want to be her friend！Mr.Reed wanted her to look at him and nod if she saw that Terry was cheating at the exam.

[参考范文]　

She was working on the last question when she saw that Terry had her phone under the desk.Though feeling uneasy and restless，she looked at Mr.Reed and nodded.With her eyes glued to the phone，it wasn't until the teacher patted on her back that Terry noticed Mr.Reed.Then，Terry was asked to leave at once.Terry rushed out of the class，crying all the way.Instead of feeling relaxed，Mo had ants in her pants.She felt guilty for telling Mr.Reed about it，which had resulted in Terry's not finishing her exam.

Mo was walking towards the school gate，when she heard footsteps behind her. She turned to find it was Terry who had just come out of the teacher's office.Feeling embarrassed，Mo wanted to run away.Nevertheless，Terry stopped her and said，“Mo，I'm sorry I haven't kept my promise to help you review，but my father has been badly ill for two weeks.Today he had a significant operation.I was so worried about him that I kept on reading the texts on the phone sent by my mother to get the latest news about him，so Mr.Reed forgave me.Can you forgive me？”“Of course！Let's go to the hospital to see your father，”Mo couldn't wait to reply.
