Q
When I was 17， I read a magazine article about a museum called the McNay， once the home of a watercolorist named Marian McNay． She had requested the community to turn it into a museum upon her death． On a sunny Saturday， Sally and I drove over to the museum． She asked， "Do you have the address？ ""No， but I'll recognize it， there was a picture in the magazine． "
"Oh， stop． There it is!"
The museum was free． We entered， excited． A group of people sitting in the hall stopped talking and stared at us．
"May I help you？" a man asked． "No， "I said． "We're fine．" Tour guides got on my nerves． What if they talked a long time about a painting you weren't that interested in？ Sally had gone upstairs． The people in the hall seemed very nosy（爱窥探的）， keeping their eyes on me with curiosity． What was their problem？ I saw some nice sculptures in one room． Suddenly I sensed a man standing behind me． "Where do you think you are？ " he asked． I turned sharply． "The McNay Art Museum!" He smiled， shaking his head． "Sorry， the McNay is on New Braunfels Street．" "What's this place？" I asked， still confused． "Well， it's our home．" My heart jolted（震颤）． I raced to the staircase and called out， "Sally! Come down immediately! "
"There's some really good stuff（艺术作品） up there．" She stepped down， looking confused． I pushed her toward the front door， waving at the family， saying， "Sorry， please forgive us， you have a really nice place．" Outside， when I told Sally what happened， she covered her mouth， laughing． She couldn't believe how long they let us look around without saying anything．
The real McNay was splendid， but we felt nervous the whole time we were there． Van Gogh， Picasso． This time， we stayed together， in case anything else unusual happened．
Thirty years later， a woman approached me in a public place． "Excuse me， did you ever enter a residence， long ago， thinking it was the McNay Museum？ "
"Yes． But how do you know？ We never told anyone． "
"That was my home． I was a teenager sitting in the hall． Before you came over， I never realized what a beautiful place I lived in． I never felt lucky before． You thought it was a museum． My feelings about my home changed after that． I've always wanted to thank you．"

A few years ago,I took a sightseeing trip to Washington.D.C.Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center,I heard a voice say, "Can you help me？ " When I turned around I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended.In a natural reflex,I reached into my pocket,pulled out all of my loose change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her.I was annoyed at being bothered by a beggar.But the blind woman smiled and said,"I don't want your money.I just need help finding the post office."
In a moment I realized what I had done.I judged another person simply for what I assumed she had to be.I hated what I saw in myself.This incident reawakened my belief in humility,even though I'd lost it for a moment.
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant.I left Honduras and arrived in the U.S.at the age of 15.I started my new life with two suitcases,my brother and sister,and a strong,serious-minded mother.Through the years,I have been a dishwasher,mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other humble jobs,and eventually I became a network engineer.
In my own life,I have experienced many open acts of prejudice.I remember a time,at age 17 I worked as a waiter,and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school,he would end up like me.I have also witnessed the same treatment of my family and friends,so I know what it's like,and I should have known better.
But now,living in my American middle class lifestyle,it is too easy to forget my past,to forget who I am and where I have been,and to lose sight of where I want to be going.That blind woman on the streets of Washington.D.C. ，cured me of my blindness.She reminded me of my belief in humility and to always keep my eyes and heart open.By the way,I helped that lady to the post office.And in writing this essay,I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson.
41. We can learn from the first two paragraphs that ______ .
A. the author was a native American
B. the blind woman needed the money badly
C. the author was as poor as the blind woman
D. the author regretted his act of prejudice
42. According to Paragraph 4，hearing the father's words,the author was probably ______ .
A. rather hurt B. very excited
C. greatly inspired D. deeply moved
43. Which opinion does the author agree with？ ______
A. One should try to experience different kind of life.
B. One should think about one's past as often as possible.
C. One should treat others equally with love and respect.
D. One should be nice to the elderly and the disabled.
44. Why does the author say he is thankful to the blind woman at the end of the passage？ ______
A. She has made him value what he has right now.
B. She has reminded him of the past experiences.
C. He has got a chance to think about his past and future because of her.
D. He has regained his belief in humility with her help.
45. What can be the best title for the passage？ ______
A. How my dream comes true B. A priceless lesson in the street
C. A Belief that will never change D. Learn from your past
S
There is an old Chinese proverb that states "One generation plants the trees；another gets the shade," and this is how it should be with mothers and daughters.The relationship between a mother and a daughter is sometimes confusing.The relationship can be similar to friendship.However,the mother and daughter relationship has unique characteristics that distinguish it from a friendship.These characteristics include responsibilities and unconditional love,which preclude mothers and daughters from being best friends.
Marina,27 years old,said,"I love spending time with my mom,but I wouldn't consider her my best friend.Best friends don't pay for your wedding.Best friends don't remind you how they carried you in their body and gave you life!Best friends don't tell you how wise they are because they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you." This doesn't mean that the mother and daughter relationship can't be very close and satisfying.This generation of mothers and adult daughters has a lot in common,which increases the likelihood of shared companionship.Mothers and daughters have always shared the common experience of being homemakers,responsible for maintaining（保持）and passing on family values and traditions.Today contemporary mothers and daughters also share the experience of work and technology,which may bring them even closer together.
Best friends may or may not continue to be best friends,but for better or worse；the mother and daughter relationship is permanent,even if for some unfortunate reason they aren't speaking.Sometimes this is not an equal relationship.Daughters don't always feel responsible for their mother's emotional well-being.But mothers never stop being mothers,which includes frequently wanting to protect their daughters and often feeling responsible for their happiness.The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is not replaceable by any other.Mothers always "trump（胜过）" friends.
46. What does the underlined word "preclude" in paragraph 1 probably mean？ ______
A. differ. B. benefit. C. prevent. D. change.
47. What can we learn from what Marina said？ ______
A. Best friends will not spend money on her wedding.
B. Best friends will not remind her of important issues in life.
C. Her mother is wiser on account of her age.
D. Her mother is definitely not her best friend.
48. Why can a mother and a daughter build a even closer relationship today？ ______
A. Because they share advanced technology with each other.
B. Because they work together to support the whole family.
C. Because they experience the same values and traditions.
D. Because they have common experience in life and work.
49. What do we know from the text？ ______
A. The mother and daughter relationship can be replaced by a best friend.
B. A mother's love brings her and her daughter a close friendship.
C. Marina has a troubled relationship with her mother.
D. The mother and daughter relationship goes beyond best friendship.
50. What is the text mainly about？ ______
A. How to build a good mother and daughter relationship.
B. A mother-daughter relationship is irreplaceable.
C. Mothers want to be daughters' friends.
D. A daughter is a mother's best friend.
51. One night，a bear came into the city of Vancouver in Canada.It walked through the streets，passing houses，shops and offices until it found some food in the bins outside a restaurant and started eating.In the morning，someone saw the bear and called the police.They came with a vet（兽医） from the city zoo，put the bear in a truck and took it back to the mountains.Luckily，the bear was safe，but what happens in other countries when big animals come into cities？
In Cape Town，South Africa，baboons （狒狒） enter the city when they are .They go into gardens and eat fruit from trees，or into houses and take food from cupboards and fridges.Baboons are strong animals and they can frighten people.But the city can be dangerous for baboons too.
Sometimes，they are killed in traffic accidents.Human food is also not a good choice for their teeth because it has a lot of sugar.Now，there are baboon monitors working in Cape Town to return the animals to the countryside.
In Berlin，Germany，wild pigs sometimes come into the city to look for food.They eat plants from parks and gardens，and cause accidents in the streets.Some people like the wild pigs and give them food and water to drink.Other people，however，think the wild pigs are influencing their lives.
In some cities，you can see birds，insects，mice and squirrels every day.But sometimes，it is dangerous when big animals come into cities to find food.We need some good ideas to help them solve the food problem without hurting both them and us.
(1) What did the police do with the bear in Vancouver，Canada？（ no more than 15 words） ______
(2) What does the underlined word "famished" in paragraph 2 probably mean？（ no more than 2 words）
______
(3) What different attitudes do people in Berlin hold towards wild pigs entering the city？（ no more than 20 words） ______
(4) What phenomenon（现象） is mainly discussed in the passage？（ no more than 10 words） ______
(5) What do you think people can do to solve the problem raised in the passage？Give your reasons. （no more than 25 words） ______

非谓语动词是高中语法的重点，也是难点，更是各省高考英语试题必考内容．解题的时候首先要确定选择非谓语，确定要选非谓语动词之后，第二步要分析其逻辑主语．非谓语动词虽不能作谓语，但仍具有动词特点，其逻辑上的动作执行者就叫做逻辑主语．非谓语动词作状语时，其逻辑主语须和句子的真正主语一致．若不一致，则须加上自己的逻辑主语．分析语态就是在确定逻辑主语之后，分析非谓语动词和逻辑主语在搭配使用时是主动还是被动关系是解题的关键．

【解析】A.embarrassed尴尬的；B.enthusiastic热情的；C.appreciative感激的；D.upset沮丧的。根据"We couldn't have been successful without them."可知，此处用"感激他们的支持"符合语境，be appreciative of是固定表达，意为"感激的"。
故选：C。
我们非常感激他们的支持。如果没有他们，我们就不可能如此成功

（4）D．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Best friends may or may not continue to be best friends,but for better or worse,the mother and daughter relationship is permanent,even if for some unfortunate reason they aren't speaking.The mother and child relationship is closer than any other.（最好的朋友可能是也可能不会继续是最好的朋友，但无论好坏，母女关系是永久的，即使出于某种不幸的原因，他们没有说话。母子关系比任何其他关系都要亲密。）可知，本文论证的是母女关系不同于朋友关系但超越朋友关系。故选D。

本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了母女关系，认为母女关系独具特点，不同于友谊，母亲与女儿不可能成为最好的朋友。作者认为，母女之间有许多共同之处，母女关系永存、不可替代。而友谊是双向的，但是母亲永远希望保护女儿、为女儿负责，女儿却不必为母亲的幸福承担责任。
