A
One summer my friend and I decided to go to Italy for a holiday and we decided to travel there without going through a travel agency.You know, you would be submerged(淹没)in crowds of tourists and lose lots of opportunities to get familiar with the country more closely.We started to think over our trip and managed to come up with a free tour of Italy.The trip was not very long but it was still very impressive.We look forward to going there again!Of course, we spent lots of time arranging the trip, but it was well worth it!Of course I was afraid that something would go wrong and I was especially anxious about my visa, but everything went quite smoothly in the end.The most difficult part was getting a visa without an invitation.In the Italian consulate(领事馆), one must hand in some official paper proving that one has a hotel booked for oneself in order to get the visa.Then we had to solve the ticket problem.Airlines often sell cheap tickets and we bought ours far in advance.The next step was to book a hotel.We finally booked a hotel about 30 km away from the heart of Rome and it was the perfect choice for our trip.Every day we took a train that carried us to the heart of Rome.Our big house, which was
surrounded by the forest, was a rare place for the fresh air and absolute silence, beautiful views,hospitable(好客的)hosts, comfortable living conditions delighted us to no end.Besides this, we were very lucky that our mistress was Russian.She gave us a lot of advice that was of great use.She told us what transport to choose and where the best places to go.Don't be afraid to arrange your trip by yourself.It's not difficult!The only thing I'll say right now is that we really enjoyed travelling by ourselves.We walked with a map and a guide-book to wherever we wanted and we even met some of our fellow countrymen on the way just two or three times.So, if you're also planning a “single” trip, don't forget to take a RussianItalian phrasebook as people in Italy prefer to speak in their native tongue.16.Why does the author want to go to Italy again?
A.He had a great time there.B.Italy has a lot of attractions.C.His friend invited him there.D.He didn't stay in Italy long enough.17.What does the author think was the hardest in preparing for his Italian trip?
A.Buying cheap airline tickets to Italy before the travelling.B.Getting a visa without an invitation from the Italian consulate.C.Booking a comfortable hotel on his own in Rome.D.Solving the ticket problem far in advance.18.In the fourth paragraph the author mainly explains________.A.the reason why he chose to live in the center of Rome
B.the reason why the hotel he booked was the right choice
C.what transport they chose to travel in their Italian trip
D.the reason why the mistress gave them some advice
19.Which of the following questions has NOT been answered in the passage?
A.Why did the author decide to go to Italy for a holiday for the first time?
B.Why did the author decide not to follow a travel agency?
C.How did the author prepare for his trip?
D.What tools did the author use for his travelling?
20.From the text we can know the author________.A.enjoys travelling everywhere in the world

B
Carbon monoxide(一氧化碳)poisoning kills and injures many people and animals around the world.The gas has been a problem since people first began burning fuels to cook food or to create heat.It is a problem in all parts of the world that experience cold weather.Carbon monoxide is called the silent killer because people do not know it is in the air.The gas has no color.It has no taste.It has no smell.It does not cause burning eyes.And it does not cause people to cough.But it is very deadly.It robs the body of its ability to use oxygen.Carbon monoxide decreases the ability of the blood to carry oxygen to body tissues.It does this by linking with the blood.When the gas links with the blood, the blood is no longer able to carry oxygen to the tissues that need it.Damage to the body can begin very quickly from large amounts of carbon monoxide.How
quickly this happens depends on the length of time a person is breathing the gas and the amount of the gas he or she breathes in.Carbon monoxide poisoning has warning signs.But people have to be awake to recognize them.Small amounts of the gas will cause a person's head to hurt.He or she may begin to feel tired.The person may feel sick.The room may appear to be turning around.The person may have trouble
thinking clearly.People develop severe head pain as the amount of gas continues to enter their blood.They will begin to feel very tired and sleepy.They may have terrible stomach pains.Medical experts say carbon monoxide affects people differently.For example, a small child will experience health problems or die much quicker than an adult will.The general health of the person or his or her age can also be important.An older adult with health problems may suffer the effects of carbon monoxide more quickly than a younger person with no health problems.People with heart disease may suffer chest pains.They may begin to have trouble breathing.21.Why is carbon monoxide called the silent killer?
A.Because it tastes and smells good.B.Because it is not easily noticed.C.Because it kills and injures people.D.Because it always harm people.22.How does carbon monoxide harm people?
A.It makes people's blood unable to move.B.It decreases the amount of blood in the body.C.It makes body tissues full of blood.D.It makes the blood less able to carry oxygen.23.When people breathe in small amounts of the gas, they may ________.A.feel a little dizzy
B.suffer a severe headache
C.go around in the room
D.have a terrible stomachache
24.Which of the following about carbon monoxide poisoning is TRUE?
A.Adults are affected more seriously than children.B.Young people are more severely affected than old people.C.People in poor health may have more severe consequences.D.People with heart problem only suffer from chest pains.25.The purpose of the passage is to ________.A.warn people not to burn fuels to keep warm in the winter
B.list the damages that carbon monoxide brings to people
C.give advice on how to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning
D.introduce some knowledge about carbon monoxide poisoning

24.C 细节理解题。最后一段讲述了不同的人以及不同状况的人吸入一氧化碳后的反
应,老人等身体健康状况欠佳的人所受的影响会更大。注意,D项干扰性最大,但是suffer from chest pains只是症状之一,而不是唯一的症状。
25.D 推理判断题。纵观全文可以看出,文章向我们介绍了一氧化碳的特性以及它使人中毒的原理以及中毒后人体的反应。故D项符合。

A
My hate for my mother caused me a lot of years of pain, but I finally realized that I was not hurting her.I was hurting myself and I was in bondage to her because I held her in my heart full of hate.God set me free from this when I forgave her.A couple of years ago I came face to face with my mother at my
grandmother's funeral.I told her about the changes in my life and I told her that I forgave her.I was able to tell her that I loved her.I am still separated from my oldest daughter, but she knows that I love her and that I made some wrong
choices.I am now raising three of my own children and my sister's child.When I look into the eyes of my sister's baby—who is now the same age as my oldest child was when I left her—I can see myself at that age.I know that Jesus forgives, as I am allowed to be the mother I never knew.Take a look at your life.There are things we dream of doing one day;there are things we wish we could forget.In the Bible, it says that Jesus came to make all things new.What would your life look like if you could start over with a clean slate?
Live with hope.If you are looking for peace, there is a way to balance your life.No one can be perfect, or have a perfect life.But every one of us has the opportunity to experience perfect grace through a personal relationship with God through his son, Jesus Christ.You can receive Christ right now by faith through prayer.Praying is simply talking to God.God knows your heart and is not so concerned with your words as he is with the attitude of your heart.Jesus Christ will come into your life, just as he promised.As you learn more about your relationship with God, and how much he loves you, you'll experience life to the fullest.16.From Paragraph 1, we can infer that ________.

________.

B[2012·广东卷]
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 lamppost.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 gaveup.I decided to walk on to the next stop.21.Thegirl 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
22.After the girl got off the bus that evening, she ________.
A.began to run
B.hit a person as usual
C.hit a lamppost by accident
D.was caught by something
23.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
24.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.25.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
课时作业(一)
Ⅰ.友情可贵,但到底什么样的友谊才是真正的友谊?当朋友执迷不悟时,你能晓之以理,动之以情,忍受误会,坚持下去,使朋友悬崖勒马,那才是真正的友谊。
1.D 根据句中one of my best friends和happiness and sorrow及with可推断出正确答案为D,表示“能够分享快乐和悲伤的好朋友”;share sth with sb意为“与某人分享某物(事)”。
2.C 根据句中的talking一词可判断此句应用句型sb spend(s)some time(in)doing sth“某人花时间做某事”。
3.B 由下文中提到的她父母不同意她和男友的交往可知,她想要会见男友,只能向父母撒谎;lie to sb about sth“就某事向某人撒谎”。
4.D 按照常理,她和这样一个吸毒男友的交往是一件不正常、不自然的事情,但是作者的朋友仍然不顾一切地要和男友在一起,因此在她看来,这件事对于她自己来说是可以接受的。句意为:我无法相信她真的认为和这样的男朋友继续交往是可以接受的。
5.C 结合上题解析,作者极力劝阻朋友和其男友交往,所以作者认为她的朋友是自毁前程,让她自己陷入麻烦之中,故本题正确答案为C。
6.A 根据上一题的解析和destroying一词可知答案为A。get into trouble“陷入困境”。
7.D attitude towards sb“对某人的态度”。
8.C come close to doing 表示“差一点做某事”。全句意思是“我有好几次差点告诉她我们的观点相差太远,以至于我们无法维系我们的友谊。”
9.D 由上下文可知作者担心她朋友的前途和她们之间的友谊,故正确答案为D, be concerned about sth表示“为某事担心”。
10.A 根据文章第一段的第二句可知“我们已经是很久的朋友了”。
11.C 作为朋友,“我”相信她一定会珍视“我”(及“我”的建议)。
12.B 根据下文的from hurting herself,可知“我是在尽力挽救她不要伤害到她自己”。
13.D 由下文可推断出作者此处表达的意思是“我相信我们之间的友谊会战胜一切”。
14.A think about our talk表示“思考我们的谈话”。
15.C break up with sb 表示“与某人分手(绝交)”。
Ⅱ.A
我们的生活每天都不一样,不应该带有仇恨地去生活,而应该把上帝装在心中,放下仇恨,宽容自己,宽容别人,这样才能生活得更美好。
16.C 推理判断题。根据文中第一段后半部分可知,当作者看到自己姐姐家孩子的眼睛时,就会想起和她一样大时的自己,推出当作者和姐姐孩子一起时,就会禁不住回忆起她的当年,故选C项。
17.D 细节理解题。根据文中第一段第二句可知“我”伤害“我”自己并束缚着自己,因为“我”心里充满了对母亲的憎恨,故选D项,因为她不能消除对母亲的憎恨。
18.A 细节理解题。根据文中倒数第三段中“No one can be perfect, or have a
perfect life.”,可知没有人能有绝对完美的生活,A选项中“Not all of us”与文中原意不符。
19.C 推理判断题。文中通过自己憎恨母亲到慢慢原谅母亲逐步切入主题:没有人能过绝对完美的生活,我们只有改变态度,寻求上帝的帮助才能改变生活,推出选C。
20.D 推理判断题。文章一开始讲了“我”对母亲的憎恨,后来慢慢原谅了母亲,然后开始点题讲述上帝在我们生活中的作用,所以D项最合适。
B
这是一篇记叙文。表达盲人的生活观。文章记叙了作者身为盲人,而不愿意让别人知道,还不愿意向别人求助的事情。作者等公共汽车的事情使她体会到了有的时候还是需要别人的帮助的。
21.D 细节理解题。由本文第一句(I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known.)可知。
22.C 细节理解题。由第二段前三句,特别是第三句(When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost.)可知。
23.C 细节理解题。根据最后一段可知,作者害怕拦不到车使自己难堪,所以放弃拦车。故选C。
24.B 推理判断题。根据第三段I tried to guess at the sound.Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away.和第四段的But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by.看出根据声音来判断车辆是不可靠的。故选B。
25.A 推理判断题。从第四段I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself可知,她本人不想拦车了,又由第三段managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help可知,她是决定找人帮忙了,而在本站没有人,去下一站当然就是希望在那里可以找到人帮忙。

A
Credit cards let people buy things now and pay for them over months or even years.But some people get deep into debt.Some banks have terms and charges that can make it harder for people to pay off that debt.In the United States, there are calls for stronger government supervision of the credit card credit card debt.Now they own about $968 billion.Critics say banks made it too easy to get credit cards.But that may be changing.The crisis in the housing and credits markets is beginning to affect the credit card industry.More payments are late.Charges for late payments are a growing source of profit for banks.But late payments can also signal bad debts.The central bank, the Federal Reserve, says two-thirds of American banks have recently reported tighter lending requirements.Many people report having their credit limits reduced without warning.Some lawmakers are concerned that cardholders do not have enough protections from what critics say are abusive policies.These include actions like raising interest rates because of an unrelated event.Also, banks may raise the chances of a late payment by changing monthly payment dates for credit cards.According to a survey, 82% of Americans think credit cards provide a valuable service.But a majority, 58%, say they do not trust credit card companies.And three out of four think the government should regulate the industry more closely.Three out of four people feel there is always some condition that makes a card less appealing than the company made it sound.And a little more than half say they have had a card that was not as good as they expected.But close to 80% say no one really reads the terms and conditions when they sign up for a credit card.16.What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph probably mean?
A.We can enjoy more convenience using credit cards.B.Credit cards can improve your buying power.C.We can buy things at lower prices using credit cards.D.Credit cards bring more card debt as well as convenience.17.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the text?
A.Banks are making it harder for people to get credit cards.B.Some people's credit limits have been reduced.C.It is more difficult to borrow money from some banks.D.Banks are receiving more charges from late payments.18.Which of the following can be a case of abusive policies?
A.Banks make credit cards look more attractive.B.Banks ignore the danger of bad debts.C.Banks raise interest rates with no good reason.D.Banks put off monthly payment dates.19.What can we know from the text?
A.Banks actually prefer to see more late payment.B.People should be more careful when applying for a credit card.C.The US government provides better protection for cardholders.D.The majority of Americans don't think much of credit cards.20.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A.Credit cards are still very well received in America.B.Credit cards don't live up to some people's expectations.C.Many people don't believe in credit card companies.D.The results of a survey about credit cards in Americans.B
You love Jay Chou's songs and you can sing some quite well.So you make a video of your performance and post it online for your friends to see.But what if this led to something beyond your wildest imagination—a career in music?
Canadian teenager Justin Bieber, 16, has just had the magical experience: He posted homemade videos of his versions of songs by American singer Chris Brown online for his relatives.He received a phone call from Brown, telling him how much he liked his performance.His singing eventually earned him a fan base and a record contract.After releasing a popular EP(extended play密纹唱片)record in November 2009, his album My World 2.0 came out.Bieber sings ballads and songs about puppy love.But is he just another gooey(甜腻的)teen idol? David Malitz, a columnist with The Washington Post, doesn't think so.“If we truly want the best for American children, let us pause and give thanks for Justin Bieber,” he writes.“After years of humdrum bubblegum(乏味的摇滚舞曲)from Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers, the 16-year-old has thrown a candy-coated wrench(扭转)into Disney's heartthrob(甜心)assembly line(生产线)by giving young fans something worth screaming their lungs out for: lovable pop songs.”
From a boy who grew up below the poverty line with his divorced mom to a star who caused near-riots(近乎失控)in shopping malls, even Bieber himself can't believe his overnight fame, although his kind of success is becoming more and more common in the Internet era.Interested in hockey(冰球), the national sport of Canada, the boy once put up pictures of players on the walls of his bedroom.He dreamed of being a hockey star and used to practice signing his
autograph(签名).He doesn't need practice now.He signs autographs, if the girls can get close enough, as a music star.21.What did Chris Brown think of Justin Bieber's singing?
A.He didn't like it.B.He liked it very much.C.He didn't say anything.D.He supported Justin Bieber.22.Who is a columnist?
A.Chris Brown.B.Jay Chou.C.David Malitz.D.Miley Cyrus.23.What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?
A.He had a happy family.B.His family was very poor once.C.His family was rich.D.His family helped him a lot.24.What's Justin Bieber's hobby?
A.Singing.B.Hockey.C.Signing.D.Making records.25.What's the best title of the passage?
A.Justin Bieber's overnight success.B.Justin Bieber's common experience.C.Justin Bieber's life.D.Justin Bieber's records.课时作业(五)

Ⅲ.阅读理解
Anthony Horowitz was miserable as a child.He was,as he puts it,“not very bright” and couldn't win the attention of his very wealthy parents,who
preferred his “clever” older brother.At age 8,Horowitz was sent away to an
abusive(虐待的)boarding school in his native England,even though he screamed and pleaded with his parents year after year not to send him.“The thought was,‘It'll be good for him',” Horowitz recalls.It was not.Horowitz did badly in his studies,had few friends and was
bullied(欺负)for five years.“My teachers couldn't have had a lower opinion of me,” he said.“I wasn't even smart enough to rebel(反抗).The one thing I remember from the very earliest age was this desire to write.When I was 10 years old,I remembered asking my parents to get me a typewriter for my birthday because I wanted to be a writer.”
Now,at 55,Horowitz is one of the world's most successful children's book authors.His Alex Rider series has sold more than 5 million copies,and the eighth book featuring the young spy,Crocodile Tears,came out this month.The Alex Rider books tell the adventures of 14yearold Alex Rider,an agent for the British intelligence agency MI6.Horowitz said he didn't try to write for kids;it just came out that way.“I have a feeling that's to do with purity and simplicity.I give as little
information as is necessary to describe the room,the character in the room,and get on with the action,” he said.That style has also made Horowitz a successful writer of television shows for adults in Britain because,he says,writing books for kids is a lot like writing television for grownups.In both cases,it's all about entertaining people with a good story.Now,Horowitz couldn't be happier with his life.He sums up his success:
“„you can be anything you want to be if you just believe in yourself.I do believe it completely.”
36.The text is mainly about________.A.Horowitz's popular book—Alex Rider
B.Horowitz's miserable childhood
C.Horowitz,a successful children's writer
D.Horowitz's special writing style
37.In his childhood,Anthony Horowitz________.A.was more intelligent than his brother
B.was paid more attention by his parents
C.couldn't understand why he was sent to the boarding school
D.led a miserable life because of poverty
38.In the boarding school,Horowitz's teachers________.A.showed great concern for him
B.often abused and bullied him
C.taught him how to write stories
D.thought little of his ability
39.What advice does Horowitz have for readers?
A.Confidence is the key to success.B.Hardship teaches valuable lessons.C.Interest is the best teacher.D.Diligence is the parent of success.课时作业(十一)
Ⅰ.1.C success 泛指成功,是不可数名词,但当表示某一成功的人或事情时是可数名词。
2.B 考查固定搭配。congratulate„on sth意为“因某事祝贺„„”。
3.A evidence证据;symptom症状;scenery风景;function功能。句意:破了的窗子是房子曾被人闯入的证据。
4.B 考查短语辨析。答句句意:这个工作不是我能干得了的。more than sb
can/could“不是某人能干得了的”,即“因此需要帮助”,符合语境。less than少于;no more than仅仅;not more than不多于,不超过。
5.B found是动词原形,意为“使有根据”;founded on是过去分词短语作定语,修饰story。
6.C 考查常用搭配。句意:你应该请几天假休息,你的气色不好。off的意思相当于away from,意为“从„„中离开”。take off有“拿掉,取消,脱衣服,起飞”等意思,在这里指“休假”。
7.C 考查状语从句的连接词。句意:不吃早饭也能导致你吃得过多。更糟的是,既然你的身体处于比较慢的状态,它就不能有效燃烧体内的能量。根据句意,应该选择C项。
8.D 考查连词。这里表示“当我在„„的时候,而我的朋友们在„„”。while在这里表示两种情况的对比,因此选D。
9.B 考查动词短语辨析。take off开始成功,开始走红。take up从事,占据;take over接管;take down写下,记下。
10.A 考查交际用语。Good luck!用于参加某项活动(如考试、比赛等)时,向对方表示祝福。Congratulations!是对已经取得成绩(或胜利、成功)后的祝贺。
11.C 当名词前有last,only,序数词或最高级等词修饰时,通常用不定式作定语。
12.A 考查介词短语辨析。in total总数达,总计;in other words换句话说;as well也;as a result结果。由题意知选A。
13.D be doing sth when„ 表示:正在做某事,这时„„
14.D 考查常用表达的辨析。句意:收到她的来信真高兴。信不信由你,我们上次见面是在30多年前。what's more而且; that is to say也就是说;in other words换句话说;believe it or not信不信由你。
15.A wish sb success祝某人成功,wish后面可以加双宾语,其他词都不可以。Ⅱ.通过与父亲一起钓鱼的一次亲身经历,小男孩受到了深刻的道德教育,这影响了他的一生。
16.D 由第一段倒数第二句It was 10 pm—two hours before the season opened.可知是鲈鱼季节开放之前。
17.B 他是去钓鱼而非其他。
18.A 当渔竿向下弯的时候,他知道线的另一端一定钓到了一条大鱼。
19.A 根据句意可知这里表示在线的另一端(on the other end)。on the one hand,on the other hand 意为“一方面„„;另一方面„„”; at the either side意为“在任何一边”。
20.C 小男孩钓鱼技巧很熟练,父亲看了眼神充满赞赏。
21.D 被钓着的鱼当然是筋疲力尽。
22.B 但他钓着的是一条鲈鱼。此处用but 表示转折,因为鲈鱼是禁止垂钓的。如果选however,前后应都有逗号。
23.C “你得把它放回去,孩子,”他说道。此处指“放回去(put„back)”。
24.A even though 表示让步,意为“即使”。句意:即使没有人看到他们,更无从得知他何时钓到了这条鱼。
25.A tell分辨,辨别;常与can,could,be able to 连用。
26.C 从父亲不可动摇的语气中,他知道这个决定没有商量的余地。即fixed“坚定的,执著的”。
27.C the black water 意为“漆黑的水中”。句意:他慢慢地将鱼钩从大鲈鱼的唇上取下,然后蹲下将鱼放回水中。第一段中提到他在湖上钓鱼,所以不可能把鱼放回到河流或海里,更不可能放入容器里。
28.B 鱼儿摆动着它强健的身躯,消失在水中。flee 逃跑;disappear消失;float漂浮;swim游。
29.B 的确他说得对。他再也没钓过那么大一条鱼。
30.A land 意为“将鱼钓上岸”。see看见;cast撒网;throw投,掷。
31.D the same fish指被他自己钓着的那条鱼。但每次他面临道德难题而举棋不定的时候,他的眼前总是浮现出那条鱼。
32.C 此处是强调句型。意指要付诸行动却很难。
33.B do right 做得对、得当。do wrong做得不对;do good做好事;do harm危害。句意:在没人瞧见的时候,我们是否仍始终如一,一丝不苟呢?
34.A 由下文For we would have learned the truth.可知此处是“被教给”。句意:在我们还小的时候,如果有人教我们要把鱼放回去,我们会这样做。
35.B 此处是形容词作状语,表示状态。句意:正确的决定在我们的记忆里变得鲜活。Ⅲ.文章向我们介绍了儿童小说作家Anthony Horowitz的童年生活、所取得的成就以及现在的幸福生活。
36.C 主旨大意题。纵观全文可以看出,文章讲述了一位成功的儿童作家Anthony Horowitz的经历、成就及其人生感悟。其他各项都是文章介绍的细节。
37.C 细节理解题。由第一段“‘not very bright’and couldn't win the attention of his very wealthy parents, who preferred his ‘clever’older brother.”可以排除
A、B、D三项。
38.D 细节理解题。由第二段“My teachers couldn't have had a lower opinion of me”可知答案。短语“have a low opinion of sb/sth”(对某人/事)评价甚低;轻视;瞧不起。本句意为“老师们对我的评价非常低”,由此可知答案。
39.A 推理判断题。由最后主人公对自己成功经验的总结“„you can be anything you want to be if you just believe in yourself.”可以看出,Horowitz给读者的建议就是:自信是成功的关键。

Dance serves many functions today for all people.Dance can be social and
competitive, an employment, or an educator.Yet beyond all of these thoughts, dance serves a_greater_purpose in today's culture.Recreational dance serves many purposes in society.It provides lots of ways for people to allow themselves to dance unprofessionally, whether it is alone or with a partner.Line dancing, western dancing, aerobic(有氧运动的)and dance
classes, are all taken for personal enjoyment.When a person uses dance as a means of exercise they are developing their movement skills and a better awareness of their body.Dance serves a recreational purpose when all people come together in dance at a party, club, or celebratory atmosphere.When taking dance classes a person begins to perfect the way their body is exposed to the people around them.Recreational dancing is one of the most revealing(具有表现性的)forms of movement in today's culture.Dance is used in various commercials(广告)to sell a product, advertise a show, or to produce the daily beauty image.It is all about movement.An advertisement
will display a woman moving across a tennis courts to sell a racket.The cameras provide a perfect viewing of her entire body, the way it moves and looks, and finally at the end we see the tennis racket.Commercials_can_sell_through_dance,_which brings them closer to our reality, and closer to our pocketbooks!
Dance also functions as a communicator in life.Whether a professional dancer is performing a piece of work on stage or a school girl walks down the street, we learn something about them.In a word, dance can tell what you are.36.What does the underlined part “a greater purpose”(in Paragraph 1)refer to?

课时作业(十一)
Ⅰ.1.D 考查动词的时态和语态。由make predictions可以看出,动作还没有发生,所以用将来时,演员是被奖励的,所以用被动语态,故选D。
2.D 考查过去分词作状语。remind 和其逻辑主语some drivers是动宾关系,也就是说,司机是被提醒的。尽管被提醒不要酒后开车,一些司机仍然心存侥幸,这十分危险。
3.B 考查动词的时态和语态。in the past few years为现在完成时的标志,主语
“thousands of films”和谓语动词“produce”为动宾关系,所以用完成式的被动语态。句意:在过去的几年里,世界范围内数千部电影被制作。
4.C still 应该放在被修饰的形容词前面,而enough应放在被修饰的形容词之后,所以选C,意为:足够的精力充沛。
5.C 考查动名词的用法。此处to是介词,其后him returning为动名词的复合结构。
