I always felt sorry for the people in wheelchairs. Some people, old and weak, cannot get around by themselves. Others seem perfectly healthy, dressed in business suits. But whenever I saw someone in a wheelchair, I only saw a disability，not a person.

Then I fainted(昏倒) at Euro Disney due to low blood pressure. This was the first time I had ever fainted, and my parents said that I must rest for a while after

first aid. I agreed to take it easy, but as I stepped toward the door, I saw my dad pushing a wheelchair in my direction! Feeling the colour burn my cheeks, I asked him to wheel that thing right back to where he found it.

I could not believe this was happening to me. Wheelchairs were fine for other people but not for me. As my father wheeled me out into the main street, people immediately began to treat me differently.

Little kids ran in front of me, forcing my father to stop the wheelchair suddenly. Bitterness set in as I was thrown back and forth.

“Stupid kids! They have perfectly good legs. Why can't they watch where they are going？”I thought. People stared down at me，pity in their eyes. Then they would look away, maybe because they thought the sooner they forgot me the better.

“I'm just like you！” I wanted to scream. “The only difference is that you've got legs，and I have wheels.”

People in wheelchairs are not stupid. They see every look and hear each word. Looking out at the faces, I finally understood: I was once just like them. I treated people in wheelchairs exactly the way they did not want to be treated. I realized it is some of us with two healthy legs who are truly disabled.

1．The author once ________ when she was healthy. A．helped disabled people

B．looked down upon disabled people C．imagined herself sitting in a wheelchair

D．saw some healthy people moving around in wheelchairs

2．Facing the wheelchair for the first time, the author ________. A．felt curious about it

B．got ready to move around in it right away C．refused to accept it right away D．threw it away

3．The experience of the author tells us that ______. A．life is the best teacher

B．people often eat their bitter fruit

C．life is so changeable that nobody can foretell

D．one should not do to others what he would not like others to do to him 4．What is the best title for this passage? A．How to get used to wheelchairs

B．People in wheelchairs should be equally treated C．People with two legs are truly healthy

D．The difference between healthy people and the disabled

答案与解析：

本文为一篇夹叙夹议文。作者曾对坐轮椅的残疾人倍感同情，而当自己因为意外晕厥也坐上轮椅时，才感觉到坐轮椅的人和正常人一样，同样应受到他人的尊重。

1．解析：从第一段中的“But whenever I saw someone in a wheelchair，I only saw a disability，not a person.”可以看出不论作者什么时候看到有人坐在轮椅上，作者看到的只是残疾，而不是一个完整的人。说明作者曾经对坐在轮椅上的人有偏见。look down upon意为“看不起”。

答案：B

2．解析：从第二段中的“...I saw my dad pushing a wheelchair in my direction！Feeling the colour burn my cheeks, I asked him to wheel that thing right back to where he found it.”可以看出作者当时的心态。当作者第一次面对轮椅时，立刻拒绝使用。

答案：C

3．解析：从最后一段看出作者悟出的道理：一个人不应该做他不愿意别人对他做的事情。从“...I was once just like them.I treated people in wheelchairs exactly the way they did not want to be treated.”可知。

答案：D

4．解析：从作者一开始看不起残疾人到自己成为残疾人，亲身感受到残疾人的窘迫，可以看出人们不应该看不起残疾人。尤其是从最后一句“I realized it is some of us with two healthy legs who are truly disabled.”可得知，有些双腿健全的人，实际上在人格上是残疾的。因此，要平等对待残疾人。

答案：B

No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world，but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.

In the United Kingdom，about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people：as we get older，many of us will become less mobile，hard of hearing or have falling eyesight.

Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on，the worse they become.

Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people's attitude towards them.

Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to work or to visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps，or onto buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice(偏见) can be even harder to break down and ignorance(无知) inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able－bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability, that count.

1．The key word in Paragraph 4 is ________. A．disability B．ignorance C．prejudice D．barriers

2．The last word of the passage “count” most probably means ________. A．being most important B．being considered C．being included D．being numbered

3．We know from the passage that ________.

A．there are few people who are disabled in the United Kingdom B．some old people have disability of some sort C．mental illness can't be considered as disability

D．the disabled have little difficulty, thanks to the help of the government

4．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A．Even the able－bodied may lose some of their body functions when they get older.

B．There are about 10 percent disabled persons in the UK.

C．The whole society should pay due attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people.

D．There no longer exists prejudice against the disabled. 5．It can be concluded from the passage that ______. A．we should try our best to prevent disablement

B．both physical and mental barriers are hard to break down C．we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled

D．the able－bodied people will never fully understand the disabled 答案与解析：

本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章分析了世界范围内残疾人的数量以及部分国家残疾人的数量情况，造成残疾的原因、残疾的类型以及残疾人所面临的困难，倡导人们消除对残疾人的偏见，多注重他们的能力。

1．解析：段落大意题。根据第四段首句以及第四段的内容可知关键词应该是“障碍”。 答案：D

2．解析：词义猜测题。根据最后一段提到的“注意这些障碍非常重要”可知“是个人和他们的能力而不是他们的残疾非常重要”。

答案：A

3．解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段中．..about one in ten people have some disability.可知英国患有残疾的人不在少数，可排除A项；根据第二段中的．..as we get older, many of us will become less mobile，hard of hearing or have falling eyesight.可推断出有些老人会有某些方面的残疾，故B项正确；根据第三段中Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness.可知精神疾病也是残疾的一种，故C项错误；根据文章最后一段的内容可知，残疾人在生活中困难重重，文章并未提及政府对他们的帮助，故D项错误。

答案：B

4．解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段提到的“残疾人遇到的一些障碍”可知“对残疾人的偏见还是存在的”，因此D项表述不正确。

答案：D

5．解析：推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句以及第四段的叙述可知，我们应该正确地对待残疾人。

答案：C Ⅴ.七选五阅读

A

I was born in Mississippi in the 1960s. My disabilities were caused by lack of oxygen to my brain when I was a five－year－old boy. I grew up knowing I was different. The first time I felt hurt and left out was in Grade Five. The other fourth and fifth graders played together in gym class, while I was put in the second grade gym class. One day, a famous football player visited the fourth and fifth grade P. E. class. All the kids got his autograph except me because I was with the second graders playing games. Mom called the school to tell them it wasn't fair, but the school scolded me for complaining too much.

In the 1980s，when my mom was giving birth to my sister，she had made a major stroke(中风) and died. My dad became even more distant(冷淡的). I was very sad and began using alcohol to ease the pain.

Dad got remarried in 1985. Everyone went to his wedding except me; he told me to stay at home and watch the house. When my high school ball came around, I wanted to go but wasn't allowed. When I graduated，my dad and step－mom refused to hold a party for me. They put me in a group home after graduation.

My life changed when I became a local leader of the National Self－

advocacy(自我辩护) Group. At first, I thought the group wasn't for me, until I found out it was all about empowerment(授权)! My goal is to be the voice for people who haven't been heard and to empower them. Many families, like mine, don't believe their disabled families have a voice or mind of their own.

Looking back over my 16 years of leadership experience，I'm proud that I've helped disabled people. They should be encouraged never to give up and to follow their own path.

答案：B

2．解析：细节理解题。由第二段中的“My dad became even more distant.I was very sad and began using alcohol to ease the pain.”以及第三段所描述的作者的遭遇可知。

答案：D

3．解析：主旨大意题。由本段中所描述的被禁止参加父亲的婚礼、不被允许参加学校舞会、父母不为其举行中学毕业庆祝会等事实可知，作者在家中没有发言权。voice意为“发言权”。这一点在第四段的末句亦可得到证实。

答案：C

4．解析：细节理解题。由最后一段“...I’ve helped disabled people”可知。 答案：A

B

I was blind，but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. After all，I was a teenage girl，and I couldn't bear people to look at me and think I was not like them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads. Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.

One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something. “I'm awfully sorry，” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time，I realized I had been apologizing to a lamp post. This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn't stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.

Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.

But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself，I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.

5．The girl refused to ask for help because she thought ________. A．she might be recognized B．asking for help looked silly C．she was normal and independent

D．being found blind was embarrassing

6．At the request stop that evening, the girl ________. A．stopped a big lorry B．stopped the wrong bus

C．made no attempt to stop the bus D．was not noticed by other people

7．What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus? A．Other vehicles also stopped there. B．It was unreliable for making judgments. C．More lorries than buses responded to the girl. D．It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus.

8．Finally the girl decided to walk to the next stop, hoping ________. A．to find people there B．to find more buses there C．to find the bus by herself there D．to find people more helpful there 答案与解析：

5．解析：细节理解题。由文章第一句“I was blind，but I was ashamed of it if it was known.”可知作者认为被别人发现自己是个盲人是很难为情的。

答案：D

6．解析：细节理解题。由最后一段中“I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one.”可知作者由于担心判断错误，当晚并没有尝试着叫停公交车。

答案：C

7．解析：细节理解题。由文中第三段“I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there felling stupid as it drew away.”可知，依据声音来判断公交车的到来有时会失误。

答案：B

8．解析：推理判断题。由于在这个站牌处没有等到车，也没有人可以求助，因此作者走向下一个站牌是希望可以在那里找到人。

1．解析：我从父亲那里学会了如何面对生活。然而，那不是在父亲健康强壮时，而在父

亲体弱多病时学到的。however此处表示转折，意为“然而”。下文中的but可以对此处作出提示。“not”也是本题解题的关键。其余几项与语境不符。A.后来；B.因此；D.同时。

答案：C

2．解析：根据上文的strong and healthy可以判断出与之相反的weak and ill。此处与前文对照是最快捷简便的办法。

答案：B

3．解析：根据Now he can no longer walk，...可知父亲身体强健已是“从前”的事了。此处应根据后文提示解题，不要急于选答案。

答案：D

4．解析：一场可怕的疾病夺走了父亲的健康。take sth. away“带走，拿走”；throw sth. away“扔掉，抛弃”；send sth. away“把……送往另一地方”put sth. away“将……收起”。

答案：A

5．解析：stressful：有压力的；hopeless：无望的，在此不符合句意，首先排除。通过下文可知父亲是可以开口说话的，由此判断出作者在此想说父亲说话很吃力(difficult)。后文中的“But, Peter...”是本题解题关键。

答案：B

6．解析：“我”和姐妹们去探望父亲，期间谈论到“生活”这个话题，由此引出下文父亲的话给了“我”人生的启示。亲人之间用“talk”这个词最自然。

答案：C

7．解析：从下文“我”对姐妹们讲述的话：在成长的过程中常常要放弃一些诸如青春、美丽、朋友之类的东西……可知这是作者的一种人生观点和信条，所以D为最佳选项。A.决心，决定；B.经历；C.雄心，无不适合语境。

答案：D

8．解析：连词as引导时间状语从句，意为“当……时候，随着”。B.自从；C.在……之前；D.直到。

答案：A

9．解析：但是似乎在我们放弃一些东西之后，我们总是能获得一些新的东西来取代它。It seems that...“似乎，看来”。A.建议；B.答应；D.需要。

答案：C

10．解析：根据下文He said，“...”可知父亲听“我”的一番宏论后，突然开口说话了。speak up＝speak loudly大声地说。B.转向；C.总结；D.打开。

答案：A

11．解析：根据第二段第一句中．..a terrible illness took all that away可知此处为I gave up everything!

答案：D

12．解析：根据前一句I thought and thought...(我想了又想……)可知父亲并未立刻就给出答案，排除干扰项B。

答案：A

13．解析：根据前两句，可知答案为C。B.接受；D.享受，不合题意。 答案：C

14．解析：父亲的一番话深深触动了我。astonished“吃惊的”；attracted“被吸引的”；warned“被警告”，都不符合句意。

答案：A

15．解析：每当我生别人气的时候，我就会记起父亲的话变得平静下来。情态动词would在此表示习惯性。此处只有would＋do表示过去习惯的动作，其他选项没有这一用法。

答案：C

16．解析：此处表示情绪的变化，从feel irritated转变到become calm。此处要根据事情变化发展的逻辑进行推断。

答案：B

17．解析：此处be able to do对应if条件句中的could：如果父亲能用对他人的爱来取代疾病给他带来的痛苦，我就应该能放下我这不值一提的恼怒。

答案：D

18．解析：用这种方式，我从父亲那里学会容忍带来的强大力量。in this/that case＝if that happens假如这/那样的话；in the form of以……形式；with this method用此方法。

答案：D

19．解析：有时候我想知道在我还是个孩子的时候，如果我能认真地听父亲的话，我本能够从他那里学到很多其他东西。A.怀疑；C.知道；D.猜测，这几项不符合语境。

答案：B

20．解析：父亲这些话给予“我”很大的人生启示，“我”感激父亲赠予我的这份礼物。award“资金、奖品”；lesson“教训”，均不符合题意。父亲并非只说了一个字，排除D项。

答案：B Ⅳ.阅读理解

Robots that can chat, find misplaced glasses, draw aeroplanes and play with children are attracting thousands of visitors during an expo in Tokyo as Japan adapts to changes in society.

Robots，such as the sound－sensitive Chapit, answer simple questions and even joke with people to help the solitary fight loneliness and stay alert in old

age.

“Many older people in Japan live alone and have no one to talk to，” said Kazuya Kitamura，a representative of the expo organizer. “Communication robots accompany people and don't mind listening to the same stories over and over again.”

While Chapit，a relatively simple robot, managed to attract a corporate partner, many researchers, such as Kiyoshi Matsumoto, a professor at the University of Tokyo，struggle to attract sponsors for more expensive projects.

Matsumoto's “Personal Mobility Robot”， equipped with four cameras and a sensor to recognize the user's centre of gravity，is designed to help elderly move around without pressing buttons, using joysticks or rotating wheels as in traditional wheelchairs.

The robot can also help find misplaced spectacles by identifying them with a sensor. “We have developed a robot that can assist many people, but because of the high cost，we still haven't found a sponsor，” said Matsumoto，who added that the cost of the machine, if mass－produced，would be comparable to that of a compact car.

“In the current economic environment there are few companies willing to invest in such a costly project，” he said.

Other robots，such as the award－winning “DIGRO” can support busy parents who have little time to play with their children. The robot can use the Internet to find a simple image and then draw pictures, keeping children company while parents work.

Japan has one of the world's fastest－ageing societies and the government predicts that by 2050 people over 65 will reach 40 percent of the whole population.

1．According to the passage, robots in Tokyo expo can do the following EXCEPT ________.

A．playing with kids B．drawing pictures C．making glasses D．talking with people

2．From the passage we learn that Chapit is ______. A．a researcher in Japan B．a common show organizer C．a sound－sensitive robot

D．the most advanced robot

3．Matsumoto's robot helps people move around ____. A．with its cameras and sensor B．with its wheels C．when they press buttons D．when they order it to do so

4．What is Matsumoto's problem with his robot? A．It is very hard to control it. B．It is not very useful in real life. C．It is too expensive to attract sponsors.

D．It is technically difficult to produce it in large numbers. 答案与解析：

1．解析：由第一段“Robots that can chat，find misplaced glasses，draw aeroplanes and play with children ...”可知应选C项。

答案：C

2．解析：由第二段第一句中的“Robots，such as the sound－sensitive Chapit ...”可知应选C项。

答案：C

3．解析：由第五段“Matsumoto's ‘Personal Mobility Robot’，equipped with four cameras and a sensor ...”可知。

答案：A

4．解析：由倒数第三段“In the current economic environment there are few companies willing to invest in such a costly project”可知C项正确。

答案：C

Claude Sammut, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of New South Wales in Australia, said it would soon be possible for robots to defeat the stars of the future.

For many years, Mr Sammut has been a member of a project called RoboCup, where robots have been programmed to learn how to play football and compete against others in a football match.

As he explains, the robots are having difficulty in learning how to control the ball and move the ball on their own，but he is still full of confidence that one day in the future they will show the same skills as Wayne Rooney，who is one of the best football players in the world.

Mr Sammut also said，“In 1968，John McCarthy and Donald Michie made a bet with David Levy, who was then the chess champion in Scotland, that within 10 years a computer program would be able to beat him. It took a little bit longer than 10

years，but eventually such programs came into being.”

“In the same spirit of a grand challenge, RoboCup aims to develop a team of robots that can defeat the world football champion team by the year 2050. To achieve this，or come even closer to the ambition, the robots will have to be able to sense and act in completely unstructured environments. This will require major advances in perception(感知), decision making, learning, and co－operative behaviors. Considering robots are integrated hardware and software systems, great advances will also be needed in sensors(传感器) ，energy storage, and materials.”

1．The RoboCup is aimed to develop robots that know how to ________. A．play computer football games

B．play football and win in real matches C．understand the rules of the football game D．improve the skills of real football players

2．What kind of difficulties are the robots facing in playing football? A．They can't run as fast as real people.

B．They can't recognize their partners accurately. C．They can't control the ball well by themselves. D．They can't pass the ball to their partners.

3．The idea of designing a computer program that could defeat a chess champion came forth ________.

A．in 1968 B．in 1978 C．in the 1990s D．30 years ago

4．We can conclude from Mr Sammut's words that ________. A．many parts of robots still need improving

B．robots would be smarter than human beings in the near future C．robots have more ambitions than human beings D．robots would take control of the world 5．What's the best title for this passage?

A．Scientists' wisdom in designing robot football players B．Robot football players to beat world's best by 2050 C．Robot football players' bright future

D．Mr Sammut—the father of robot football players 答案与解析：

A

Scientists have created a “human－like robot” that can dance and do the housework.

Mahru has been developed to imitate humans and can move its lips, eyebrows and pupils(瞳孔). The machine can also move its upper and lower body freely and automatically stop itself when walking. In addition, it has been programmed to give out two kinds of pleasant smells to match its emotions.

The 1.5 m tall robot was produced by researchers at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology(KIST)and is the first South Korean－developed machine of its kind.

“Mahru will open the way for the commercial use of humanoid robots doing housework，” You Bum－Jae, leader of the development research team, said, “Mahru can dance while walking on its legs and is able to work in place of a human.”

Through an advanced motion capture system, Mahru can follow a variety of human movements and move its hands freely enough to deal with any obstacles that may get in its way when walking.

State－funded KIST showed the robot during a presentation at its head office in Seoul.

People here were treated to an entertaining demonstration which saw the robot show off the full range of its skills, most notably a series of dance moves.

The research team added that they had designed another Mahru, this time with sensors(传感器) allowing it to distinguish between faces and objects.

The showing of Mahru came a week after researchers in Japan said they had created the“most human－like” robot in the world. A team at robotics department

of Osaka University in Japan claimed that “robogirl”， Repliee R－1, “looks, moves and interacts like a human，and has silicone(硅胶) skin that feels almost human to the touch.”

1．What does the underlined word “interacts” in the last paragraph mean? A．To fight with others. B．To act on each other. C．To have a word with others. D．To make robots by itself.

2．“Mahru” made by KIST can do the following things EXCEPT ________. A．express certain feelings by smells it gave out B．move its body freely

C．stop automatically when walking D．dance with other human－like robots

3．According to what You Bum－Jae said in Paragraph 4，his research team wants to ________.

A．help robots with doing housework B．show its scientific power C．make Mahru offer more fun

D．explore the commercial use of Mahru

4．According to the last paragraph，Repliee R－1 ______. A．is another “Mahru” B．was made by KIST

C．has skin feeling similar to humans D．looks like a boy 答案与解析：

1．解析：词义理解题。inter指“在……之间，互相”；act“作用”，因此可以推断出是“相互作用，相互影响”之意，故选B项。

答案：B

2．解析：细节理解题。由文中第二段第二句“...move its upper and lower body freely and automatically stop itself when walking”可知B项和C项正确。由第二段第三句“...give out ...pleasant smells ...”可知A项正确。故选D项。

答案：D

3．解析：细节理解题。由第四段第一句“...will open the way for the commercial use of ...”可知D项符合题意。

答案：D

4．解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段可知Repliee R－1应该是日本生产的一台看上去像女孩的智能机器人，其肌肤触摸起来几乎跟真人的一样，故选C项。

答案：C

B

There are robots all around us, some do very complicated jobs like flying airplanes and driving subway trains. And some do a simple job.

When an automatic washing machine is switched on, water pours in. The machine waits until the water is hot before washing the clothes. It does this by “feedback”. Information about what is happening is “feedback” into the robot to tell it what to do next.

Our eyes, ears and other senses are our feedback. They tell us what is going on around us, so robots are like people in two ways. They work and they have feedback.

There are robots all around, making our lives easier. Some of them, like the pocket calculator, can work much more quickly than human beings can. And they rarely make mistakes.

In some ways robots are better than people. They work quickly, but do not make mistakes. They do not get bored doing the same job over and over again. And they never get tired. Robots are very useful in factories. They can be taught to do many different jobs. First their electronic brains must be shown how the job is done. A person moves the robot's “arm” and “hand” through each part of the job. The robot's brain remembers each move. When the robot is put to work on its own, its brain controls the rods, wheels and motors which move its arm.

When the robot is needed for a new job, its electronic memory is “wiped clean”. Then it is taught how to do its new task.

If the robot's hand stops working, or if something gets in the way, it cannot do the next part of the job. So it stops and signals for help, then a human engineer repairs it.

The most “intelligent” robots can move and see. Their eyes are cameras. Their metal fingers can feel shapes and even find out how hot and cold objects are. These robots have computer brains, linked to their eyes and fingers, which control their actions.

The sea has always interested man. From it we can get food, minerals, and treasure. For thousands of years，we could sail on it. But we could not go far beneath its surface. Man wants to explore deep into the sea. However, we are not fish. We must breathe air, so we can't stay under the water's surface for any length of time. To explore deep water, man faces even more dangers and problems. A diver who wants to stay under water for more than a few minutes must breathe air or a special mixture of gases. He can wear a diving suit and have air pumped to him from above. He can carry a tank of air on his back and breathe through a nose and a mouthpiece. Water weighs 800 times as much as air. Tons of water pushes against a diver deep in the sea. His body is under great pressure. When a diver is under great pressure, his blood takes in some of the gases he breathes. As he rises to surface, the water pressure becomes less. If the diver rises too quickly，the gases in his blood form bubbles. The diver is then suffering from the bends. The bends can cause a diver to double up in pain. They can even kill him.

1.On the whole, this passage is about ________. A．special mixtures of gases in deep sea B．the problems man faces in deep－sea diving C．air pressure under the surface of sea water D．a kind of illness that man suffers in the sea 2．A diver's body in deep water ________. A．is under great pressure B．is just like that of a fish C．suffers from the bends D．weighs very little

3．The passage does not say so, but it makes you think that ________. A．deep divers should be in good health

B．divers explore the deep sea only for treasure

C．diving under the water too quickly causes a kind of illness D．there is a special mixture of gases under the sea 4．Why does a diver get the bends?

A．He tries to do exercise under the water. B．His diving suit weighs too much. C．He comes to the surface too quickly. D．The air in his blood is used up. 5．From the passage we can see that ________.

A．the sea began to interest man in the last few years B．man is not at home deep in the sea

C．all divers will get the bends sooner or later

D．the air in the sea water will kill a diver if he is not careful 答案与解析：

What do you know about the sea? You may have seen it. Some of us have swum or bathed in it. It looks beautiful on a fine sunny day and it can be very rough when

there is a strong wind. What other things do we know about it? Of course, the sea is very large. In the world there is more sea than land. The sea covers three quarters of the earth. The sea is also very deep in some places. It is not deep everywhere; some parts of it are very great. At one spot, near Japan the sea is nearly 11 kilometres deep! Just think of it, the highest mountain in the world is only 9 kilometres high! If you have swum in the sea, you know that the water is salty. Rivers carry salt from the land into the sea. Some parts of the sea are more salty than other parts. Do you know the Dead Sea in Arabia? It is very salty. Swimmers cannot sink in it! Fish cannot live in the Dead Sea. It is a strange sea. In most parts of the sea, there are a lot of fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea. Others live deep down. No sunlight can reach the depth of the sea. So it is completely dark. Strange fishes live there. Some are blind. Some have their own lights. Some have great jaws(口部). With their great jaws, they swallow fish larger than themselves. The sea can be very cold. Deep sea divers know this well. At the top the water may be warm. Then as the divers go down，the sea becomes colder and colder.

Many scientists are now making a study of animal and plant life in the sea. They hope to find new resources for mankind.

The growing amount of human noise pollution in the ocean could make fish unable to find a good habitat and cause their death，according to a new research from a UK－led team working on the Great Barrier Reef, the largest coral reef(珊瑚礁) in the world, off the northeast coast of Australia.

After developing for weeks at sea, baby reef fish rely on natural noises as a clue to find the coral reefs where they can survive and grow stronger. However, with human noise pollution from ships，wind farms and oil mining on the increase，researchers are now concerned that this important behavior is coming under threat.

Dr Simpson, a senior researcher in a British university，said，“When only a few weeks old, baby reef fish face a very difficult task in locating and choosing

a suitable habitat. Reef noise gives them quite important information. But if they learn, remember and become attracted towards the wrong sounds, we might be leading them in all the wrong directions.”

Dr Simpson and his team began their environment. Using underwater light traps, Dr Simpson and his team collected baby reef fish and put them into tanks with underwater speakers playing natural reef noise or a mix of man－made sounds. The next night the fish were put into specially－designed choice tanks. Again they played natural or man－made sounds. All the fish liked the reef noise，but only the fish that had experienced the mix of man－made sounds swam towards it, the others swam away when hearing the man－made sounds.

The test result shows that fish can learn a new sound and remember it hours later. And they can tell the difference between sounds and, based on their experience, become attracted to other sounds, which might really affect their behavior on the most important night of their life. The breakdown of natural behavior could have damaging effects on the population of future fish groups.

1．Baby reef fish find coral reefs mainly by their sense of ________. A. sight B．hearing C．smell D．touch

2．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the research by Dr Simpson and his team?

A．Scientists got their research results by making a comparison. B．They collected baby reef fish using underwater speakers. C．All reef fish in the test swam to the man－made sounds. D．The test was conducted during the day.

3．What did the British research team feel most concerned about after the noise experiment?

A．The reason why baby reef fish can find the location of coral reefs. B．The process of how baby reef fish learn a new sound. C．The population of fish groups in the future. D．The eating habits of baby reef fish.

4．We can infer from the passage that baby reef fish ________. A．can find their suitable habitat whatever happens B．can survive in difficult living conditions C．can get used to noise from humans

D．are easily attracted by sounds

5．What does the passage mainly talk about? A．A new research about noise pollution.

B．A great task faced by a British research team. C．The way baby reef fish survive and grow stronger.

D．A research about how noise pollution changes fish behavior. 答案与解析：

经英国科学家的研究发现，海洋中的人因为噪音污染使生活在澳洲的小礁鱼很难找到它们的栖息地。

Whales are endangered and protected animals, but still nowadays there are countries where whale meat is considered a very tasty dish.

For centuries large whales have been hunted for oil, meat, baleen(鲸须) and unfortunately now these big mammals are endangered animals; the reason is that

men have killed too many of them.

Unluckily this still happens nowadays, because whales represent a lot of money and behind them there is a big business, but unfortunately they have a low rate of growth. So if men fish many specimens, in a very short time, as they usually do, whales don't have enough time to reproduce themselves.

Men began fishing whales at the end of the 19th century and since the moment on a broad exploitation of this big mammal started. In 1946 fourteen countries signed the INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION FOR THE REGULATION OF WHALING (ICRW). By this regulation it was observed that exploitation of whales had been excessive(过分) and they therefore understood that whales needed to be protected.

In Japan the number of whales killed with scientific aims has increased a lot from 1987. In that year 273 whales were killed, in 1990 327, in 1995 540 and in 2002 the number of big mammals killed rose to 684. In Japan whale meat is considered a very tasty dish, a kilo of this meat costs about 2,600 yen, that is $22.

I think that to eat meat of endangered animals isn't good, because by eating it we contribute to their extinction. But, I also think that it depends on national traditions: here in Italy we are not used to eating whale meat, but in Japan or in Norway it is a traditional dish, and so we can't change other's traditions! But the most important thing is not to extinguish animals!

6．What's the main reason which leads the number of whales to decrease? A．They are not fit to the surroundings any longer. B．Too many of them have been caught by human beings. C．Change of sea water caused by pollution. D．Natural disaster.

7．Some people fish whales for ________. A．whales are rather dangerous to fishermen B．their meat, oil and scientific causes C．their skin, oil and bones D．food and money

8．What have people done since whales are in danger? A．They have made regulation to protect them. B．They have given up their tradition of eating them. C．They care nothing about their extinction. D．They are sure more and more whales will appear.

9．What's the best title of the passage? A．Whales, Endangered and Protected Animals B．Whales, Tasty Food on Tables C．The Largest Animals in the Sea D．No More Whales Can Be Fished 答案与解析： 6．解析：根据第二段可知，鲸鱼数目的减少主要来自人类的大肆捕捉，而不是其他原因。 答案：B 7．解析：根据第二段和第五段可知，文章没有涉及A；C和D不完整。 答案：B 8．解析：根据第四段可知，为了保护鲸鱼人们制定了《国防捕鲸管制公约》。 答案：A 9．解析：选项A最能概括全文的中心。 答案：A Ⅳ.短文改错 My dentist had just pulled out one of my tooth and had told me to rest for while.

For Alison Rollinson, picking out the best experiences from her volunteer work is a major challenge.

“There are so many to choose from，” said Rollinson，who has spent more than one year doing disaster volunteer work after Hurricane Katrina.

“The best parts are having the opportunity to be in an environment where you can meet the needs of people and know that your time is being used in a good way，” she said.

After spending her first few months working as a volunteer, Rollinson was hired full－time. Taking the step to do disaster relief work full－time — first as a volunteer and then as an employee — was just what needed to be done，Rollinson said.

Before Katrina hit, Rollinson had planned on moving to Key Largo and working as a hotel clerk. Seeing the need on the Gulf Coast, Rollinson changed her plans.

“I've always been interested in helping people out, and then, because of this hurricane and the devastation(毁坏) I saw on TV, I felt that my time would be better spent doing disaster work for a few months rather than sitting in a hotel，” she said.

Rollinson said，“I haven't regretted that decision once. The experiences have been life－changing and have taught me a lot about myself and the Gulf Coast residents.”

She said，“I hope that my experience will inspire others to come to the Gulf Coast to help, especially since so much work remains to be done. The needs are great for the Gulf Coast residents and volunteering to help is easy.”

“All people have to do is to have an open mind and give us a call，” Rollinson said. “Anyone can come here and they can help out in many different ways. It's great to be in such a supportive place where you can really feel the love.”

1．According to the passage, Rollinson thought that ________.

A．she had got lots of wonderful experiences from volunteer work B．she had made great contribution to the Gulf Coast residents C．she would take measures to do more disaster relief work

D．she would contribute her life to volunteer work

2．Rollinson hasn't regretted her decision to be a volunteer because ________. A．she has got a better job after volunteering B．she can work in a hotel on the Gulf Coast C．she regards volunteering as a valuable experience D．she has known many people on the Gulf Coast

3．Rollinson helped the Gulf Coast residents and hoped ________. A．to learn more about disasters

B．to inspire more people to become volunteers

C．to call for more people to come to live on the Gulf Coast D．to gain a better reputation for herself

4．Which of the following statements is mentioned in the passage? A．The Gulf Coast residents needed help badly after the disaster. B．The Gulf Coast residents changed their lifestyle after the disaster. C．Rollinson once worked in a hotel in Key Largo. D．Rollinson had always worked as a full－time volunteer. 5．Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2：30 AM. When I arrived, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.

I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute，” answered a weak，elderly voice.

After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.

I took the suitcase to the car，and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the car.

She kept thanking me for my kindness. “It's nothing，” I told her. “I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated.”

“Oh，you're such a good man，” she said. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked，“Could you drive through downtown？”

“It's not the shortest way，” I answered quickly.

“Oh, I'm in no hurry，” she said. “I'm on my way to a hospice(救济院：末期病人安养所). I don't have any family left. The doctor says I don't have very long.”

I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(计价器)．

For the next two hours，we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked，the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.

Sometimes she'd ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.

At dawn, she suddenly said, “I'm tired. Let's go now.” We drove in silence to the address she had given me. “How much do I owe you？” she asked.

“Nothing，” I said.

“You have to make a living，” she answered. “Oh, there are other passengers，” I answered.

Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly. Our hug ended with her remark，“You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”

6．The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to ________. A．show she was familiar with the city B．see some places for the last time C．let the driver earn more money D．reach the destination on time

7．The taxi driver did not charge the old woman because he ________. A．wanted to do her a favor B．shut off the meter by mistake C．had received her payment in advance D．was in a hurry to take other passengers 8．What can we learn from the story? A．Giving is always a pleasure. B．People should respect each other.

C．An act of kindness can bring people great joy. D．People should learn to appreciate others' concern. 答案与解析：

6．解析：事实细节题。由第八段可推知，这位老人想在进安养所前最后看看这座生活了一生的城市。

Most times things go well for travellers abroad but occasionally things go wrong.

So，whether you are an experienced traveller or a first－timer, going by yourself, with the family or a group，there are things you should do before you go. Think about money and tickets well in advance. Take enough money including enough

to pay your return fare, and hold on to it. Better still, buy return tickets in the first place. In an emergency a consul will contact your relatives or friends and ask them to help you with money or tickets. But there's no law that says a consul has to lend you money and if he eventually does (and it will have to be repaid) he will want to be satisfied first that you really do have no money and there is no one else you know who can help.

It is also important to take out proper insurance for everything from car breakdowns to loss of life. A consul cannot pay your medical or any other bills，nor can he do the work of local travel representatives or motoring organizations.

1．What does the underlined word “emergency” mean? A．A lucky chance. B．A hot discussion. C．A serious situation. D．An exciting travel.

2．What is the author trying to do in the text? A．To inform people about laws abroad. B．To describe an international problem. C．To explain how to visit a consulate. D．To give advice about going abroad. 3．Why would somebody read the text? A．To know how to contact a consul. B．To find out how to make a complaint. C．To know when to contact a consul. D．To find out where a consul lives.

4．You can borrow money from a consul if you ______. A．need to stay abroad longer B．have to help a relative C．have no other financial means D．need to have your car repaired 答案与解析：

1．解析：词义猜测题。从“...a consul will contact your relatives or friends and ask them to help you with money or tickets”看出当一个人突遇紧急情况的时候，领事才联系你的亲戚或朋友要求他们为你提供钱或票据。emergency是“紧急情况，突发事件”的意思，a serious situation意为“严峻的形势”，二者含义相符。

答案：C

2．解析：主旨大意题。本文讲述了游客在国外遇突发情况时领事馆的作用。 答案：D

3．解析：推理判断题。读完本文后就可以知道在国外时什么情况下可以联系领事馆的工作人员。

答案：C

4．解析：细节理解题。从“...he will want to be satisfied first that you really do have no money and there is no one else you know who can help”看出，只有当领事确认你的确没有钱，也没有其他人能给你帮助的时候，你才能够借到钱。

答案：C

More and more parents are willing to send their children abroad to study. If everything goes well, by helping them to enter into world－famous universities, parents are helping their children not only to have the best of education as they expect but also to understand and appreciate foreign cultures. Before sending your children abroad, there are many factors(因素) worth considering.

Studying abroad is not as expensive as you think. In fact, prices are not the most important factor in choosing schools especially if you have the chance to send your children in a relatively small university but of good quality. You will find that it is a worthy investment(投资) of your money to send your children to study abroad.

Are you ready to see your only child leave for another country? Before the trip it is necessary that you have the correct guidance to prepare your children to have a smooth trip. In addition to studying, your children in foreign land can learn

new language and new culture. They will also learn to live on their own and to develop the self－confidence, which is good for the forming of their character.

If you have already decided to send your children abroad, then they need the help to find the most suitable schools and courses. The children are still in growing stages. What is important is that the school should be able to provide not only the proper studying courses but it should also take into account the environment and help students to develop their self－confidence. Most of all, remember that the parents' aim is not to find the best school but help their children find the most suitable school. Your needs are not always what your children need.

1．The main purpose of parents sending children abroad to study is to ________. A．understand a new culture B．improve them in a new language C．let them have the best education D．raise their social position

2．Compared with big universities, small ones ______. A．often have better quality of teaching B．may not ask for too high fees

C．are easier to attract foreign students D．are not as famous as big ones

3．How does studying abroad help to train the children's character? A．By communicating with foreigners. B．By learning about new languages. C．By letting children live independently. D．By letting children experience a new culture.

C．see whether the school can provide good education D．find out the children's real needs 5．What is the purpose of the passage?

A．To talk about the advantages of studying abroad.

B．To advise students how to get prepared for studying abroad. C．To get parents prepared for sending children to study abroad.

D．To introduce to students what studying abroad may be like. 答案与解析：

1．解析：细节理解题。根据第一段的“...parents are helping their children not only to have the best of education as they expect ...”可知，很多家长送孩子到国外学习最大期望是让孩子获得最好的教育。

答案：C

2．解析：推理判断题。根据第二段的“In fact, prices are not the most important factor in choosing schools especially if you have the chance to send your children in a relatively small university but of good quality.”可知，如果送孩子到一所相对较小但是质量很高的学校价格不是最大的问题，这就暗示相对较小的学校收费不是很高。

答案：B

3．解析：细节理解题。根据第三段的“They will also learn to live on their own and to develop the self－confidence，which is good for the forming of their character.”可知，让孩子在国外学习可以让他们学会独立生活，培养自信，这对他们性格的形成有好处。

答案：C

4．解析：推理判断题。根据末段的两句话：做家长是要帮助孩子选择最合适的学校，而不是找最好的学校，家长所需要的不一定就是孩子需要的，这就说明在选择学校时，要关注孩子的需要。

答案：D

5．解析：主旨大意题。本题容易错选B项，但是根据第一段的“Before sending your children abroad，there are many factors(因素)worth considering.”以及全文的内容可知，是让家长在送孩子到国外学习前，要考虑几个方面的因素。

答案：C Ⅴ.七选五阅读

A few weeks ago, we talked about the Test of English as a Foreign Language，or TOEFL. A listener in Cambodia named Thida asks if American colleges and universities also accept the IELTS exam. IELTS is the International English Language Testing System. It was developed by University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations.

Cambridge University

Cambridge ESOL says the test measures true－to－life ability to communicate in English for education, immigration or employment. The IELTS tests listening, reading，writing and speaking skills. It uses a mixture of accents and spellings, including British English and American English.

The test is used by government agencies, schools and professional

organizations in one hundred and twenty countries. __1__ Many American schools that accept the IELTS can be found on the Web at ielts.org.

__2__ But the graduate school at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, for example, says it prefers the IELTS.

The listening and speaking parts are the same for everyone who takes the IELTS. But people have a choice of reading and writing tests — either academic or general training. The listening test takes thirty minutes. __3__

The reading test takes sixty minutes. Students answer forty questions based on three written passages.

The writing test also takes sixty minutes. Students have to write two essays. One essay has to be at least one hundred and fifty words long and the other at least two hundred and fifty words. __4__ the longer one has to support an argument.

__5__ The score is based on a recorded talk between the student and a test examiner. A．IELTS is a comprehensive test of your English proficiency. B．And, yes, that includes the United States. C．The shorter one is a description of something； D．Some schools accept both the TOEFL and the IELTS.

E．These language skills are increasingly demanded by international employers, education institutions and professional associations.

F．There are forty questions based on a recording. G．The speaking test takes less than fifteen minutes. 答案： 1－5 BDFCG

You will find that teaching styles in the US are much different from those in other countries. Teaching in the US is more interactive and less dependent on rote memorization. Students regularly interrupt faculty(全体教师) to ask questions or offer constructive criticism of part of the lecture. This is encouraged, since professors prefer discussion and debate to passive silence. You will also notice that

the students and faculty tend to dress rather informally. Faculty will have open office hours for students to come by and ask questions.

Class sizes tend to be smaller in the US than in other countries. Although first－year students may have a few large classes，most classes are small，with 15 to 45 students. The large lectures will often have small recitation sections run by teaching assistants or faculty. Recitation sections review the material presented in the main lecture, supplement it with additional material, and provide an opportunity to ask questions.

Your grade in most classes will be based on your scores on tests, quizzes, and assignments. If the class has a recitation or discussion section，active participation can improve your grade. The better the professor and teaching assistants know you and your work, the better they will be able to assess your progress.

Unless the professor has indicated that collaboration (合作) is expected, you should do all of the work on your own. Collaborating with fellow students on individual assignments is considered cheating. Studying with others is OK, but assignments should be completed individually. Likewise，quoting a text word for word without properly attributing the source is plagiarism. Cheating and plagiarism is grounds for failing a class or even expulsion(开除) from school.

1．American teachers would like students to ______ in class. A．have discussions and debates B．memorize all the materials C．remain silent while listening D．be informally dressed

2．A student can do all of the following EXCEPT ________ in America. A．interrupting the teachers B．dressing rather informally

C．coming to the teacher's office anytime D．criticizing the teacher's lecture

3．The underlined word “plagiarism” in the last paragraph probably refers to the act of ________.

A．quoting something from others' works B．stealing someone else's words，ideas, etc C．doing one's assignments with others' help D．cheating in an exam

4．The last paragraph is mainly about ________. A．how a student can improve his grade B．how a student should fulfill his assignments C．how to collaborate with fellow students D．how to punish a student cheating 答案与解析：

1．解析：细节理解题。由文章第一段中的“This is encouraged, since professors prefer discussion and debate to passive silence”可推知，美国的教育倡导学生讨论和辩论。

答案：A

2．解析：细节理解题。由文章第一段“Faculty will have open office hours for students to come by and ask questions”可知，教师办公室对学生有固定的开放时间，并不是随时都可以去。

答案：C

3．解析：词义理解题。文章最后说明cheating和plagiarism是两个并列的概念，而plagiarism所在句子就是对其含义的解释，因此可大致推断出它的意思。plagiarism的意思是“直接不加修改地引述”，即“剽窃”。

答案：B

4．解析：主旨大意题。概括文章最后一段可知，本段主要强调学生要独立完成作业。 答案：B

B

Most students in the UK leave school or sixth－form college at the age of 18 and go to study for three years in a university, but in recent years many students have chosen to take a one－year break between finishing school and starting university.

This period is called a gap year and is a time when British students can broaden their horizons by visiting foreign countries.

Tens of thousands of gap－year travellers leave Britain every year, with Australia as the most popular destination. While some volunteer for charity work in developing countries, others will enjoy eco－tourism or simply backpack through many countries.

Many other gap year travellers try their hand in teaching English to the locals in the countries they visit.

Students who take a gap year often say the experience helps them get a better perspective on the world and broadens their cultural awareness.

An important part of any gap year is learning about the culture and society of other peoples. It can be very important to learn about local norms in order to avoid a culture_clash,_such as when Westerners wear clothes that are seen as unacceptable in more conservative countries.

Developments in communications technology mean it is easier than ever to keep in touch with friends and family at home. Many gap year students maintain a travel blog or upload their snaps to photo－sharing websites so that others can see their adventures.

China is becoming an increasingly popular destination for British students. Gap year programmes in China might include coaching sports in Chinese schools，learning kung fu or even teaching English.

Who knows? Perhaps you'll meet some British gap year travellers in your home town soon. Don't forget to practice your English with them!

5．Which is the first place that the gap－year students may go to? A．Austria. B．Australia. C．England. D．China.

6．Most British students spend their gap year by ________. A．doing charity work in developed countries

B．traveling abroad to broaden their acknowledgement of the world C．volunteering for eco－tourism D．teaching English in the countryside

7．The underlined word “culture clash” in Paragraph 6 means ________. A．difference in culture B．difference in clothes C．difference in modern life D．difference in traveling

8．Which would be the best title for this passage? A．Traveling in Britain B．Britain Studying Abroad C．UK Students Abroad

D．Taking a Gap Year During College 答案与解析：

5．解析：细节理解题。由文章第三段第一句可知“...Australia as the most popular destination”。

答案：B 6．解析：推理判断题。由第三段第二句的developing country可排除A项，从enjoy eco－tourism可排除C项的volunteering for eco－tourism。从第四段可知学生们为他们所去的国家的当地人教授英语，而非在乡村教授英语。从第二段可知学生们通过参观不同的国家以扩大视野，增加对世界的认识，故选B项。 答案：B 7．解析：词义猜测题。从该词所在句子的句意可知学习当地的各种规则非常重要以避免某个事物，并以西方人的着装在一些保守国家可能被视为不可接受为例，可见是指文化习俗上的不同和差异。B项仅是其中的一个例子，无法涵盖该词的全部含义。 答案：A 8．解析：主旨大意题。A项显然不对，全文描述的是英国学生去国外旅行；B项表意不明，既不是表示“国外英语教学”也不是“英国人在海外学习”，且与文章内容无关联；D项错误，gap－year并非在大学期间，而是在中学毕业和进入大学中间的一年。故选C项。 答案：C Ⅳ.短文改错 First, I'd like to thank you for your reminding, although I don't agree with your view which students should spend more time on their lessons instead of read novels. Indeed, reading novels takes up some of the time that should spent on lessons, but it'll make us know what hard life is. Besides, by reading novels we can gain what we can't learn from our textbook. Of course, reading novels has it's shortcomings. Novels that have wrong ideas will make us to do something wrong. Maybe, in your eyes, the disadvantages of reading novels overweighs the advantages.

W: Hello，everybody. My name is Lucy Green，and I stand before all of you today in the hope that you will choose me to be your president. There are several reasons why I think I am fit for the position of president of the Students' Union. First of all, I have been given many leadership roles before, such as captain of the girls' volleyball team, editor of the school magazine, and secretary of the environmental club. So I know how to get along with different students and members. Secondly，I am a good listener. I am willing to listen to any problems and complaints, and then do what I can to solve them. Thirdly, if I am elected president, I am willing to give up all my other activities so that I can focus on my duties as president. I have been in the environmental club for three years now，but I am willing to give up the club if I get elected. In other words, I will put my heart into my duties if I am elected president, and I will not make you disappointed. Think wisely on the day of elections and vote for me. You will not regret it.

Last year, around Labor Day, I read a “Happy Ad” in our local newspaper. There was a lady in a local nursing home, who was celebrating her 90th birthday and her family wanted everyone to know about it. It said that if you wanted to drop her a line(给她写信), here was her address. So I did. I found a birthday card and dropped her a short note, wishing her a happy birthday.

A week or so later, someone knocked at my front door. I opened the door and found a middle－aged man standing on my doorstep. He introduced himself as the son of this woman to whom I had sent the card. He explained that he just wanted to drop by in person and thank me for sending such a nice card to his mom. Apparently, like many older folks, she did not receive much mail and was quite excited to receive mine. I just didn't know what to say. I told him it was my pleasure and that I hoped his

mom had enjoyed her birthday.

That year, I did not send out any Christmas cards, except to this lovely old lady in the nursing home. I just told her that I was thinking about her and hoped that she had a nice holiday. I sent her a Valentine and also a couple of notes in between. I just thought she might like to have someone write to her, to get some mail.

She passed away a couple of months ago. I never met this lady, but I did keep her and her family in my thoughts. I dropped them a line of sympathy. I hope that my few little notes were enough to brighten a couple of her days here on earth.

Randy Kraus was paralyzed(瘫痪的). His left side was useless. He'd been a police officer before, and he could do strong and able. Now, he felt he could do nothing.

His trouble started with Parkinson's disease, but it didn't end there. In July, 2002, the 60-year-old Kraus went into the hospital for an operation, on his brain to control the shaking. But he had a stroke(中风). He was paralyzed. The doctors said，“You may never walk again and you might not even be able to talk.”

Kraus found that he couldn't lift a fork or take a drink by himself. Physical treatment was so painful and slow. What did he have to live for? So Kraus held the gun against his head. Feeling the cold metal on his skin, he began to consider the pain he would cause for his wife, daughters and grandchildren. He didn't pull the trigger(扳机)．

Andrew Garud, his exercise physiologist(生理学家), told him，“You are where you are. The pace would be slow; the pain would be real. But as long as you are alive, you have the ability to get better.”

After three months of working with Garud, Kraus wanted to see if he could stand. He could. Then he took three steps，sat down and cried like a baby.

One step, as they say, led to another. Next he managed a short walk along the edge of a boxing ring(拳击台) in the health club. It was the hardest fight of Kraus's life. People at the gym cheered him on. Garud kept saying he could do more. Now, Kraus can brush his teeth, shave himself, and get around the house with a walker. Only the paralyzed can fully understand little triumphs.

24．According to the fourth paragraph, what did Andrew Garud mean? A．Everyone in the world has the right to be alive.

B．It' s necessary for people to do exercise to keep healthy. C．One should try to lead a better life.

D．As long as a person is alive, he will have a chance to be better. 25．What does the underlined word“triumphs”in the last paragraph mean? A．Difficulties. B．Successes. C．Disappointments. D．Reputations.

26．What personality does Kraus probably have? A．Optimism. B．Strong-mindedness. C．Sympathy. D．Generosity.

27．According to the passage, we can learn that ________.

A．the stroke during the operation on his brain led to Kraus' paralysis B．Kraus' operation in 2002 was performed by Andrew Garud C．doing exercises can help cure Parkinson's disease

D．Kraus will lead a normal'life as a healthy person in the future 答案与解析：

24．解析：推理判断题。根据第四段的内容，尤其是最后一句话可知，Andrew Garud认为：人只要活着，就有可能改变现状。

答案：D 25．答案：B

26．解析：推理判断题。通读全文可知，Kraus虽然瘫痪了，但是在别人的帮助下重新振作起来，克服肉体和精神上的双重痛苦，学会走路以及日常的生活技巧，所以他是个意志坚强的人。

答案：B

27．解析：细节理解题。根据第一、二段可知，Kraus在接受帕金森症的手术时中风了，导致瘫痪，所以A是正确的。

答案：A

C

Although heat wasn't an issue at first, as it would become later, coming from New York to India would shock any foreign tourists. Quickly, however, I noticed how nice and helpful everyone was to us. The guest house we stayed in was full of people willing to help. The other two volunteers also helped to calm my nerves about being in India so far away from my home. After the first few days I was eager to get to Bal Ashram.

Upon getting to Bal Ashram, I was able to meet the boys, who called Bal Ashram their home. The center itself helps to rescue boys from child labor in various areas of India and give them a jump－start into education for free where they will then return to their families and continue their education. They are taught that without education there can be no future. Through education, Bal Ashram also builds a sense of community which can be seen with everyone who works and is taught here. Teaching English here to the children gave me great pride in knowing that these children would be helped within their own experiences here at Bal Ashram and their future lives. Each child was always willing to learn more.

Boys there were always seen laughing. Afternoon sports and nightly social events, including dancing, were just one of the many highlights with me and the children. Even my inner life was enriched, let alone theirs. Living in Bal Ashram also gave us a first hand view of village life in India as well as the culture and religion that surrounds this country.

My time spent at Bal Ashram was one I will never forget. Through the simplicity and life of the people and the children who are full of innocence and joy, I have taken with me so much more than when I arrived.

32．Why did the author come to India?

A．To learn about Indian culture and religion. B．To learn about the life in Indian villages.

C．To work as a volunteer English teacher. D．To rescue Indian boys from hard labor.

33．What did the author suffer from most while staying in India? A．The unfair treatment by other volunteers. B．The hot weather.

C．The communication barriers.

D．The culture and religion differences. 34．According to the text, what is Bal Ashram? A．A small town where the author stayed.

B．A host family that offered the author food and shelter. C．A nonprofit educational and service organization.

D．An educational program offered to poor children in Indian. 35．The boys the author communicated with were ____. A．uninterested in education B．optimistic and in high spirits

C．unable to forget their pain and sufferings D．out of touch with their parents forever 答案与解析：

32．解析：事实细节题。根据第二段倒数第二句的Teaching English here to the children gave me great pride in knowing可知，作者是从纽约来到印度的一个志愿者，教孩子学习英语。

答案：C

33．解析：推理判断题。根据文章首段的Although heat wasn't an issue at first, as it would become later可知，作者遭受了印度炎热的气候。
