The name of the student was Bohr who later was famous all over the world.He won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 192(2) (1)The student got a zero at the beginning because ________.
A.the teacher wasn’t satisfied with him
B.his answer wasn’t complete or correct
C.the teacher didn’t fully understand his answer
D.his answer didn’t show his knowledge of physics
(2)We know from the passage that ________.
A.the student knew the expected answer
B.the administrator told Bohr the height
C.the author preferred Bohr’s last answer
D.the teacher was a very stubborn person
(3)We can learn from the passage that ________.
A.instructors can teach students how to think
B.arbiters can help students to get high scores
C.students should be given more freedom in thinking
D.teachers should make students use physical formulas
(4)What was Bohr’s attitude toward his schooling?
A.Optimistic. B.Critical. C.Approving. D.Pessimistic. B3. It happened to me recently.I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama’sDreams From My Fatherand how it had changed my views of our President.A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was,in his words,“a brilliantly(精彩地)written book”.However,he then went on to talk about Mr Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all.I sensed that I was talking to a book liar. And it seems that my friend is not the only one.Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t.In the World Book Day’s“Report on Guilty Secrets”,Dreams From My Fatheris at number 9.The report lists ten books,and various authors,which people have lied about reading,and as I’m not one to lie too often(I’d hate to be caught out),I’ll admit here and now that I haven’t read the entire top ten.But I am pleased to say that,unlike 42 percent of people,I have read the book at number one,George Orwell’s1984.I think it’s really brilliant. The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it.It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen,Charles Dickens,Fyodor Dostoevsky(I haven’t read him,but haven’t lied about it either)and Herman Melville. Asked why they lied,the most common reason was to“impress”someone they were speaking to.This could be tricky if the conversation became more in-depth! But when asked which authors they actually enjoy, people named J.K.Rowling, John Grisham, Sophie Kinsella (ah, the big sellers, in other words). Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story (I’ll come clean:I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so). (1)How did the author find his friend a book liar?A. By judging his manner of speaking.B. By looking into his background.C. By mentioning a famous name.D. By discussing the book itself.(2)Which of the following is a“guilty secret”according to the World Book Day report?A. Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list.B. 42% of people pretended to have read1984.C. The author admitted having read 9 books.D. Dreams From My Fatheris hardly read.(3)By lying about reading,a person hopes to .A. control the conversationB. appear knowledgeableC. learn about the bookD. make more friends(4)What is the author’s attitude to 58% of readers?A. Favorable. B. Uncaring. C. Doubtful. D. Friendly. 4.短文改错: It is Mother’s Day today. Though it’s a western festival, it’s popular in China now. Mom has a full-time job, so she has to do most of the houseworks. She is a great mother. Both Dad or I planned to do something on Mother’s Day. We get up early in the morning. Dad cleaned the house, and then went on shopping. When he came back, I found a bunch of flowers in her hand. I asked Mom to stay in the sitting room and I cooked in kitchen. The dishes what I cooked were Mom’s favoritest. At dinner, we said to her, “Happy Mother’s Day!” Mom was grateful and moving. 5.假定你是李华,想邀请外教Henry一起参观中国剪纸(papercutting)艺术展。请给他写封邮件,内容包括:(1)展览时间、地点;(2)展览内容。注意:1.词数100左右;(3)可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。
答案解析1.【参考答案】【文章大意】看到一位穿着朴素的老人在停车场起劲地擦车,作者联想到年轻的自己应该努力工作。(1)【解析】选B。由holiday morning可知母亲允许我在家睡觉。allow sb. to do sth. “允许某人做某事”。(2)【解析】选C。由我想早起可知这个早晨和往常不一样了,所以用however表示转折。(3)【解析】选A。由第三段第一句“人们进入车中,然后开车走了”可知,我看的是“停车场(parking lot)”。(4)【解析】选D。由文章最后一段可知,作者从擦车的老人身上学到了“有用的(useful)”东西。A项意为“有趣的”;B项意为“令人惊奇的”;C项意为“可怕的”,均不符合题意。故选D。(5)【解析】选A。此处意思是说,作者俯视停车场时,注意到了一位老人,所以用notice. B项意为“认出”;C项意为“叫,打电话”;D项意为“帮助”。(6)【解析】选B。在自行车车把上有个桶。handle意为“把手”。(7)【解析】选C。老人从一辆车到另一辆车,用move最合题意。(8)【解析】选D。意思是老人已经擦洗完了很多车。故用finish doing“干完……”。(9)【解析】选A。句意为:一些想法掠过了我的大脑。cross意为“闪过,掠过”,符合题意。B项意为“滑动”;C项意为“打扰”;D项意为“鼓舞”,不符合题意。(10)【解析】选C。指老人穿着一件朴素的T-恤衫。A项意为“吸引人的”;B项意为“闪耀的”;C项意为“简朴的”;D项意为“昂贵的”。根据题意,选C。(11)【解析】选 D。句意:他骑的那辆自行车绝对不是现在的人愿意被看到的要骑的那种自行车。A项意为“修理工”;B项意为“商人”;C项意为“司机”;D项意为“骑自行车的人”。根据题意,选D。(12)【解析】选B。此处指老人虽然辛苦,但是自得其乐。故用be content with,意为“对……满意”。(13)【解析】选A。指“老人和过路人挥手”同路人打招呼,故用wave。(14)【解析】选C。指“老人时不时地停下来和去附近市场的年纪大的人一起聊天”,故用with。(15)【解析】选D。指“老人有自豪的感觉”,用pride. A项意为“担心”;B项意为“尊敬”;C项意为“同情”,不符合语境。(16)【解析】选A。根据句意是指“擦挡风玻璃”,故选A。B项意为“安装”;C项意为“替换”;D项意为“覆盖”,不符合题意。(17)【解析】选C。“老人擦了挡风玻璃,站在后边欣赏;接着擦轮子,再站到后边欣赏”,所以用again,指老人重复的动作。(18)【解析】选A。指老人擦车的事情,给我上了“一课”,用lesson。(19)【解析】选B。句意:为了谋生,任何年纪的人,只要身体健康并乐意努力工作,都没必要乞讨。living意为“谋生”。(20)【解析】选D。由第一段可知,老人的行为与自己的想法产生了强烈的对比,使自己产生了羞愧感,故用feel ashamed of意为“对……感到羞愧”。【长难句分析】The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern cyclists would want to be seen riding on. 分析:句子的主语是the bicycle, was是谓语动词,the kind是表语;he rode 是定语从句修饰the bicycle, modern cyclists would want to be seen riding on 是定语从句修饰the kind。译文:他骑的那辆自行车绝对不是现在的人愿意被看到的要骑的那种自行车。 2.答案及解析:答案:(1)D; (2)A; (3)C; (4)B解析:(1)细节理解题。从第二段第一句中的“but the answer didn’t confirm his competence in physics”可知,这个学生的解题方法没有体现物理方面的知识是他得零分的原因。
(2)细节理解题。从倒数第二段中的“Then,I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question.He admitted that he did”可知,这个学生知道被期待的答案是什么。故A项正确。
(3)推理判断题。从最后两段的内容可知,Bohr富有创造性思维并获得了诺贝尔奖,由此推断文章主张学生应该被允许自由地思考。
(4)观点态度题。从倒数第二段中的“but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think”可知,Bohr对他接受的教育持批判的态度。 3.【参考答案】【文章大意】作者主要阐明了自己对一些人的看法,那就是有些人没有读过一些名著也不了解一些著名的作家,却撒谎说他们读过这些名著也读过这些著名的作家的信息,但也有些像作者这样从来不撒谎的人。(1)【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据第一段的内容可知,作者的朋友说他读过奥巴马的Dreams From My Father,但是他却以一种不了解奥巴马的背景的方式谈论奥巴马,据此作者判断出他撒谎了。故选D。(2)【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第二段的内容可知,“Report on Guilty Secrets”揭露了三分之二的人撒谎说他们读过一些没有读过的书,其中42%的人撒谎说他们读过George Orwell的1984。由此可知选B。(3)【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第四段的内容可知,撒谎说他们读过一些名著,想给人留下印象,好像自己知识渊博。故选B。(4)【解析】选C。推理判断题。文章最后一句I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so中的astonished(吃惊的)表明作者不相信58%的人说的话。故选C。 4.参考答案: (1)【解析】第三句中的so改为but。考查连词。句意:母亲有一份全职的工作,但是她得做大部分的家务活。根据逻辑关系可知,此处表示转折关系。(2)【解析】第三句的houseworks改为housework。考查名词。housework意为“家务活”,是不可数名词,没有复数形式。(3)【解析】第五句的or改为and。考查固定结构。句意:我和我爸爸计划在母亲节做点什么事情。both...and...意为“……和……都,不仅……而且……,既……又……”,是固定结构。(4)【解析】第六句的get改为got。考查时态。此处描述母亲节当天的事,根据上下文可知,此处应用一般过去时态。(5)【解析】第七句去掉on。考查固定结构。go shopping去购物,是固定结构;go on doing sth.继续做某事。(6)【解析】第八句的her改为his。考查代词。此处指父亲手拿一束花,应使用指代男性的形容词性物主代词his。(7)【解析】第九句在in和kitchen之间加the。考查冠词。此处应特指自己家的厨房,应在kitchen前面加the。(8)【解析】第十句的what改为that/which,或者去掉what。考查定语从句。分析句子结构和句意可知,此处为dishes之后所接的定语从句,定语从句中缺少宾语,故可以使用that或者which指代dishes。此处也可以省去作宾语的关系代词,故可以直接去掉what。(9)【解析】第十句的favoritest改为favorite。考查形容词。favorite作为形容词意为“最喜欢的”,本身就含有最高级意义,故不再有最高级形式。(10)【解析】最后一句的moving改为moved。考查形容词。此处的主语是人,表示“感动的”,故用moved。moving意为“令人感动的”。 5.【参考范文】 Dear Henry,I'm Li Hua, one of your students in your cultural class. I know you're interested in one of Chinese traditional art forms—papercutting. So I invite you to attend an exhibition of it. It'll be held from June 10 to July 10 this year and the opening time is from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm from Monday to Saturday and the place of the exhibition is at the City Gallery, which is located at 118, Jian Guo Road, Hai Dian District. Shall we go there together this Friday afternoon? I will meet you at 2:00 pm at the teaching building gate if you like. You know we Chinese have a lot of traditional art forms, of which papercutting is one of the most popular. In the exhibition, you will enjoy many special kinds of papercuttings. Maybe you can learn one or two skills of the cutting. Looking forward to your early reply.Regards, Li Hua
