4.The Extended FamilyMrs Sharp, a large, red-faced woman in her late sixties, has lived in Greenleas, a 'new town' in the countryside outside London, since 1958. Before that she lived in Bethnal Green, an area of inner London. She was moved to Greenleas by the local authorities when her old house was demolished.She came from a large family with six girls and two boys, and she grew up among brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, grandparents and cousins. When she married her boyfriend from school at eighteen, they went on living with her parents, and her first child was brought up more by her mother than by herself, because she always worked.As the family grew, they moved out of their parents' house to a flat. It was in the next street, and their life was still that of the extended family. "All my family used to live around Denby Street," said Mrs Sharp, "and we were always in and out of each other's houses." When she went to the shops, she used to call in on her mother to see if she wanted anything. Every day she would visit one sister or another and see a nephew or niece at the corner shop or in the market."You always knew 90% of the people you saw in the street everyday, either they were related to you or you were at school with them," she said.When her babies were born (she had two sons and a daughter), she said, "All my sisters and neighbours would help – they used to come and make a cup of tea, or help in some other way." And every Saturday night there was a family party. It was at Mrs Sharp's mother's house. "Of course we all know each other very well. You have to learn to get on with each other. I had one neighbour who was always poking her nose into our business. She was forever asking questions and gossiping. But you had to put up with everyone, whatever they were like."1.Why did Mrs. Sharp have to move to Greenleas? ()A.Because she had to work there.B.Because she didn’t like the old place at all.C.Because her house in the downtown area was knocked down.2.When she got married, she lived ______.A.together with her parents all the timeB.together with her parents for some timeC.far away from her parents’ house3.Why did she know so many people? ()A.Because she was easy going.B.Because they were either her relatives or schoolmates.C.Because she was good at making friends with people.4.The sentence “I had one neighbour who was always poking her nose into our business.” in the last Para. means ______.A.I had one neighbour who was always warm-hearted.B.I had one neighbour who was always ready to help us.C.I had one neighbour who always showed her interests in our private affairs.5.What does this passage mainly deal with? ()A.What the extended family is like.B.The relationship between Mrs Sharp and her neighbour.C.How Mrs Sharp brings her children up.

    Mrs.Janes gave music lessons at a school.She had a good voice and enjoyed singing,except that some of her high tones sounded like a gate that had been forgotten to oil.Mrs.Janes knew her weakness well,and took every chance she could to practice these high tones.As she lived in a small house,where she could not practice without disturbing the rest of the family,she usually went for long walks along the country roads whenever she had time and practiced her high tones there.Whenever she heard a car or a person coming along the road,she stopped and waited until she could no longer be heard before she started practicing again,because she was a shy person.
    One afternoon,a fast,opened car came up behind her so silently and so fast that she didn’t hear it until it was only a few yards from her.She was singing some of her highest and most difficult tones at that time and as the car passed;she saw an anxious expression came over the driver’s face.
    He stopped his car suddenly,jumped out and began to examine all the tyres carefully. Mrs.Janes didn’t dare to tell him what noise he had heard really was,so he got back into the car and drove off.

    Late one Sunday afternoon in September 1999,Oseola McCarty,an elderly cleaning lady passed away
    in the little wooden flame house where she had lived and worked most of her life.It may seem like an ordinary
    end to a humble life,but there was something quite exceptional about this woman.
    In the summer of 1995,McCarty gave $150,000,most of the money she had saved throughout her life,
    to the University of Southern Mississippi in her hometown. The money was to help other Mrican Americans
    through university.She had started her savings habit as a young child when she would return from school to
    clean and iron for money which she would then save.
    She led a simple,枷gal existence,never spending on anything but her most basic needs.Her bank
    also advised her on investing her hard-earned savings.
    When she retired,she decided that she wanted to use the money to give children of limited means the
    opportunity to go to university.She had wanted to become a nurse,but had to leave school to look after ill
    relatives and work.When asked why she had given her life savings away,she replied,"I'm giving it away
    so that children won't have to work so hard,like I did."After news of her donation hit the media,over 600
    donations were made to the scholarship fund.One was given by media executive,Ted Turner,who reputedly
    gave a billion dollars.
    She didn't want any fuss made over her gift,but the news got out and she was invited all over the United

    received the Presidential Citizen's Medal.Despite having no real education,she found herself with two honorary
    doctorates:one from the University of Southern Mississippi and the other from Harvard University.Her

    First,she stopped a man who refused to answer any questions because he had no time.Next,a?man told her it was none of her business whether he used deodorants or not.Then she interviewed a?man who was hard of hearing and,instead of answering her questions,began asking her all sorts of?his own.Finally,Carol found a young man with a pleasant smile on his face.He was coming towards?her slowly and seemed ready to talk.He looked surprised when she put her first question."I′m doing?a research,too.It′s about soap powders,"he said.

  • 第12题:

    问答题
    Practice 7  When Mary Lennox was sent to Misselthwaite Manor to live with her uncle everybody said she was the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen. It was true, too. She had a little thin face and a little thin body, thin light hair and a sour expression. Her hair was yellow, and her face was yellow because she had been born in India and had always been ill in one way or another. Her father had held a position under the English Government and had always been busy and ill himself, and her mother had been a great beauty who cared only to go to parties and amuse herself with gay people. She had not wanted a little girl at all, and when Mary was born she handed her over to the care of an Ayah, who was made to understand that if she wished to please the Mem Sahib she must keep the child out of sight as much as possible. So when she was a sickly, fretful, ugly little baby she was kept out of the way, and when she became a sickly, fretful, toddling thing she was kept out of the way also. She never remembered seeing familiarly anything but the dark faces of her Ayah and the other native servants. And as they always obeyed her and gave her her own way in everything, because the Mem Sahib would be angry if she was disturbed by her crying, by the time she was six years old she was as tyrannical and selfish a little pig as ever lived. The young English governess who came to teach her to read and write disliked her so much that she gave up her place in three months, and when other governesses came to try to fill it they always went away in a shorter time than the first one. So if Mary had not chosen to really want to know how to read books she would never have learned her letters at all.

I had only been on Facebook for one day.I just typed Dawn's name in and I hoped for the best.It was a bit scary when I contacted her. I thought she might be married and would have a dozen kids."

    6.Mr. Eaton added:"We just knew instantly as soon as we met up again.We didn't even have to discuss it or propose.When we knew each other all those years ago,I was a white van man and Dawn had a sports car. I still got a white van and Dawn still has a sports car. Some things never change.She always said that we would see each other again.I just didn't think it would be 27 years."The couple are due to get married in Exmouth on March 20.

  • 第17题:

    The Apgar Test
    The baby was born at 3:36 p. m. At 3:37, she scored 4 out of 10 on her first test. At 3:41, she scored 8 out of 10. The doctor was glad.
    Another baby, born at 8:24 p. m., scored 3 out of 10 on his first test. He scored 4 out of 10 on his second test. He took another test at 8:34 and scored 5. ___1___ He called for help1.
    These newborn babies took a test called the Apgar test. This test helps doctors diagnose problems. ___2___ Most babies take two tests. The first is at 1 minute after birth, and the second is at 5 minutes after birth. If a baby’s score at 5 minutes is less than 6, the baby takes another test at 10 minutes after birth.
    The Apgar test is not an intelligence test. It’s a test that shows a baby’s health right after it is born. The Apgar test measures things such as a baby’s color, heart rate, and breathing. The test has five parts, and the score for each part can be 0, 1, or 2. ___3___
    A doctor named Virginia Apgar developed the test. Apgar went to medical school at Columbia University in New York City in 1929. She faced many challenges because she was the first woman in the program. However, she was one of the best students in her class. After medical school, she started treating patients2.
    Apgar also became a researcher in anesthesiology, a new topic in medicine at the time3. During her studies, she learned how to give patients anesthesia. ___4___
    In the 1940s, many women started to have anesthesia when they gave birth. Apgar had a question: How does anesthesia affect newborn babies? In 1949, when Apgar was a professor at Columbia’s medical school, she created her simple test. She wrote a paper about her methods in 1953. Soon after, people started using the Apgar test around the world.
    In her work, Apgar saw that many newborns had problems. She wanted to help these babies survive. She stopped practicing medicine in 1959, and she went back to school to get a master’s degree in public health. ___5___
    Today, the Apgar test is still used all over the world. Newborn babies don’t know it, but Virginia Apgar is a very important person in the first few minutes of their lives.

    词汇:
    diagnose /'dai gn uz/ vt. & vi. 诊断(疾病)
    anesthesiology /, nis,θizi’ l d i/ n. 麻醉学
    anesthesia /, nis'θizi / n. 麻醉

    注释:
    1. called for help:需要帮助,求救。call for:需要,要求,提倡;来找(某人),来取(某物)。
    2. she started treating patients:她开始治疗病人。treat sb.有三种意思,分别是“对待某人”“治疗某人”和“款待某人”。treat作“治疗”讲,是普通用语的治疗,意义广泛,cure多用于疾病方面,heal多用于创伤或外伤方面。
    3. at the time:当时,在那时。同义短语有at that point, at that time, on the occasion。

    练习:
    A Doctors add the scores together for the total Apgar score.
    B She spent the rest of her life doing research and raising money to help newborn babies.
    C A score of 10 is uncommon.
    D The doctor was worried.
    E They decide if a baby is normal or needs special care.
    F Anesthesia is a procedure that makes patients lose consciousness, so they do not feel any pain during surgery.


    答案:
    解析:
    答案与题解:
    1. D 由第二段的前半部分可知这个婴儿三次健康测试的分数都不理想,而且最后一句提到他需要救助,说明他的情况不容乐观,所以医生应该担心。因此,答案为D。
    2. E 第三段中第二句话提到这项测试帮助医生诊断新生儿的问题,即医生可以根据测试结果判断新生儿的健康状况。因此,答案为E。
    3. A 顺承本段倒数第二句的句意可知选项A和选项C都可以,但选项C说10分的成绩不常见,这一点由全文其他地方推断不出来。因此,答案为A。
    4. F 本段第二句话最后提到阿普加学习给病人实施麻醉,而选项F讲的是麻醉是什么,正好与本段第二句话句意吻合。因此,答案为F。
    5. B 本段主要讲的是阿普加帮助新生儿的愿望以及她为此所做的努力,纵观六个选项符合段意的只有选项B。因此,答案为B。
    阿普加测试
    下午3:36,一个婴儿出生了。3:37时,她的第一次健康测试成绩是4分(总分10分)。3:41时,她的成绩是8分,医生感到非常高兴。
    另一天晚上8:24,另外一个婴儿出生了。他的第一次测试成绩是3分,第二次成绩是4分。8:34时又进行了一次测试,成绩是5分。医生非常担心,这个婴儿需要救助。
    这些新生儿进行的是一项叫作阿普加的测试。这项测试帮助医生诊断新生儿的问题,他们根据测试成绩判断新生儿是正常的还是需要特殊护理。大多数的婴儿会接受两次测试。第一次是在出生后1分钟,第二次是在出生后5分钟。如果婴儿在第二次测试中的成绩少于6分,那他们需要在出生10分钟后再进行一次测试。
    阿普加测试不是一项智力测试。它是一项在婴儿出生后表明其健康状况的测试。这项测试会测量诸如婴儿的皮肤颜色、心率、呼吸一类的项目,总共包括五部分,每一部分的成绩可以是0分、1分或2分。医生把每一部分的成绩加起来就是这项测试的总分。
    一位名叫弗吉尼亚 阿普加的医生设计了这项测试。1929年,阿普加去纽约的哥伦比亚大学医学院就读。由于是这个学科里的第一位女性,使她面临了许多挑战。然而,她却是班上最好的学生之一。完成医学院的学业后,她开始给患者治疗。
    阿普加还是麻醉学方面的研究者,当时麻醉学是一项新的医学课题。在求学过程中,她学会了如何给患者实施麻醉。麻醉会使病人失去意识,因而他们在手术过程中不会感到任何疼痛。
    20世纪40年代,许多妇女在分娩时开始使用麻醉。但阿普加有个疑问:麻醉是如何影响新生儿的呢 1949年,当阿普加在哥伦比亚医学院担任教授时,她创造了这项简单测试。1953年,她写了一篇关于该测试方法的论文。不久之后,人们开始在世界范围内使用阿普加测试。
    在工作中,阿普加发现许多新生儿都有健康问题。她想帮助这些新生儿活下来。1959年,她中止了行医,回到学校攻读公共卫生硕士学位。她把自己的余生都奉献给了医学研究以及筹集资金帮助新生儿。
    今天,阿普加测试仍然在全世界范围内被广泛运用。虽然新生儿们并不知道,但弗吉尼亚 阿普加却是他们生命的前几分钟里非常重要的一个人。

    All the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great amhition:to De the lucky?customer who did not have to pay for her shopping.For this was what the notice just inside the?entrance promised.It said:"Remember,once a week,one of our customers gets free goods.This?May Be Your Lucky Day!"
    For several weeks Mrs.Edwards hoped,like ninny of her friends,to be the lucky customer.Unlike her friends,she never gave up hoping.The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which?she did not need.Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed.She dreamed of?the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say:"Madam,this is Your Lucky Day.Everything in your basket is free."
    One Friday morning,after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car,she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea.She dashed back to the supermarket,got the tea and went towards the cash-desk.As she did so,she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her."Madam,"he said,holding out his hand,"I want to congratulate you!You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!"

    Mrs.Edwards must have been

    A.pleased
    B.delighted
    C.proud
    D.disappointed

    答案:D
    解析:
    【考情点拨】推理判断题。【应试指导】pleased与delighted都意为“高兴的”,可排除A、B两项。proud自豪的,也可排除。Mrs.Edwards成为幸运顾客时,她已把买好的东西都放进车里了,此时只有茶叶还未付款,所以她失望的是她现在只买了茶叶。

    第一篇

    Oseola McCarty

    Late one Sunday afternoon in September 1999,Oseola McCarty,an elderly cleaning lady passed away
    in the little wooden flame house where she had lived and worked most of her life.It may seem like an ordinary
    end to a humble life,but there was something quite exceptional about this woman.
    In the summer of 1995,McCarty gave $150,000,most of the money she had saved throughout her life,
    to the University of Southern Mississippi in her hometown. The money was to help other Mrican Americans
    through university.She had started her savings habit as a young child when she would return from school to
    clean and iron for money which she would then save.
    She led a simple,枷gal existence,never spending on anything but her most basic needs.Her bank
    also advised her on investing her hard-earned savings.
    When she retired,she decided that she wanted to use the money to give children of limited means the
    opportunity to go to university.She had wanted to become a nurse,but had to leave school to look after ill
    relatives and work.When asked why she had given her life savings away,she replied,"I'm giving it away
    so that children won't have to work so hard,like I did."After news of her donation hit the media,over 600
    donations were made to the scholarship fund.One was given by media executive,Ted Turner,who reputedly
    gave a billion dollars.
    She didn't want any fuss made over her gift,but the news got out and she was invited all over the United
    States to talk to people.Wherever she went,people would come up to her to say a few words or just touch
    her. She met the ordinary and the famous,President Clinton included.In the last few years of her life,
    before she died of cancer,McCarty was given over 300 awards:she was honoured by the United Nations and
    received the Presidential Citizen's Medal.Despite having no real education,she found herself with two honorary
    doctorates:one from the University of Southern Mississippi and the other from Harvard University.Her
    generosity was clearly an inspiration to many people arid proof that true selflessness does exist.

    When her generosity was made ________.
    A:people donated billions
    B:hundreds of students got scholarships
    C:hundreds of people put money into the fund
    D:she was sent to university

    答案:C
    解析:
    本篇文章主要讲述的就是奥莎拉·麦卡迪把一生的积蓄全部奉献给了那些她并不认 识却需要帮助才能完成学业的年轻人。她的这一举措震惊、激励了全世界,得到了全社会的 认可。
    由文章第二段最后一句话及第三段可知,奥莎拉·麦卡迪工作很辛苦,只进行基本需 求的消费。她很努力地存钱,并且银行也给她投资的建议。
    由文章第四段第三句话“When asked why she had given her life savings away, she replied, 'I'm giving it away so that children won't have to work so hard,like I did."’可知答案为C。
    由文章第四段第四句话“After news of her donation hit the media, over 600 donations were made to the scholarship fund.”可知答案为C。
