3.BJuly 21st , 2007 was a typical English summer’s day — it rained for 24 hours! As usual, I rushed home from work at midday to check on the house. Nothing was amiss. By the time I lift work at 5 pm, however, the road into our village was flooded. Our house bad never been flooded but, as I opened the front door, a wave of water greeted me. Thank God the kids weren’t with me, because the house was 5 feet deep in water . We lost everything downstairs. And the plaster had to be torn off the walls, ceilings pulled down.At first we tried to push on through. We didn’t want to move the children out of home, so we camped upstairs. We put a sheet of plastic across the floor to protect us from the damp. But after three months, we felt very sick, so we moved to a wooden house in a park. The house was small, but at first we were all just delighted to be in a new place. Unfortunately, things took longer than expected and we were there for 10 months. The life there was inconvenient. What surprised me most was how much I missed being part of a community(社区).We had lived in a friendly village with good neighbors, and I’d never thought how much I’d miss that.Although-our situation was very bad, it’s difficult to feel too sorry for yourself when you look at what’s happening elsewhere. I watched a news report about floods in Northern India and thought , “We didn’t have a straw hut(茅草房)that was swept away , and our house is still sanding . We’re lucky .”We moved back home in August. With December coming, there’s reconstruction work to be done, so it’s difficult to prepare for Christmas. But I can’t wait — I’m going to throw a party for our friends in the village to say thanks for their support . This year, I won’t need any gifts — living away from home for months has made me realize how little we actually need or miss all our possessions . Although we are replacing things , there’s really no rush — we have our home back , and that’s the main thing .45. What does the underlined word “amiss” in the first paragraph mean?A. Wrong.B. Missing.C. Right. D. Found.

Also,some students don't know how to save time .They are not careful enough while they do their homework,so it takes them a Iot of time. Some students spend too much time watching TV or playing computer games.They stay up very late. Some students have to get up early every morning on weekdays to get to school on time by bus or by bike.lt can be a long way from home to school.

  • 第3题:

    B

    We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class.

    “You could win prizes,’’our teacher told US as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard. She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing,“The first prize is ten dollars. You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster. ”

    We studied the board critically. Some of US looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard,rocking the sheets to the fight or left while we conjured up our designs. Others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought. We had plans for that ten—dollar grand prize,each and every one of US. I'm going to spend mine on candies,one hopeful would announce,while another practiced looking serious,wise and rich.

    Everyone in the class made a poster. Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins, while others used nothing but colored construction paper. Some of US used big designs,and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one comer of our poster and let the space draw the viewer's attention to it. Some of US would wander past the good students’ desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness. It was yet another grown-up trick of the soil they seemed especially fond of。making all of US believe we had a fair chance,and then always—always—rewarding the same old winners.

    I believe I drew a sailboat,but I can’t say that with any certainty. I made it. I admired it. I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen,and then I turned it in.

    Minutes passed.

    No one came along to give me the grand prize,and then someone distracted me,and I probably never would have thought about that poster again.

    I was still sitting at my desk,thinking,What poster? When the teacher gave me an envelope with a ten-dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me.

    46. What was the teacher's requirement for the poster?

    A. It must appear in time.

    B. It must be done in class.

    C. It must be done on a construction sheet.

    D. It must include the words on the blackboard.


    正确答案:D
    【解析】细节理解题。由第二段末句,老师说的话You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster可知。

    Improve Your Memory

    To many people advancing age means losing your hair,your waistline and your memory.But is it an inescapable fact that the older you get,the less you remember? Well,as time goes by,we tend to blame age for problems that are not necessarily age-related.
    When a teenager can't find her keys,she thinks it's because she's distracted or disorganized, but a 70-year-old blames her memory. In fact,the 70-year-old may have been misplacing things for decades一like we all do from time to time.
    In healthy people,memory doesn't deteriorate as quickly as many of us think. According to psychologists,as we age,our memory mechanism isn't broken,it's just different.The brain's processing time slows down over the years,though no one knows exactly why.Recent research suggests that nerve cells lose efficiency and that there's less activity in the part of the brain that decides whether to store information or not.But it's not clear that less activity is worse.A beginning athlete is winded. more easily than a trained athlete.In the same way,as the brain gets more skilled at a task,it spends less energy on it.
    There are steps you can take to improve your memory,though you have to work to keep your brain in shape.It's like having a good body. You can't go to the gym once a year and expect to stay in top form.
    Some memory enhancement experts suggest using the AM principle.Pay attention to what you want to remember. Then give some meaning to it. We remember things when we focus on them, whether we intend to or not. That helps explain why jingles stick in our minds.They are played on loud,flashy TV commercials.They also use rhyme and music to help us remember better.
    Basic organization helps us remember the boring stuff. For example,rather than trying to recall a random list of groceries,we can divide them into categories,such as dairy,meat and produce. For important things like keys and money,we can set up a"forget-me-not"spot where we always keep them.
    We can also eat to aid our memory power. Whole grains,fruits and vegetables are excellent sources of glucose,the brain's preferred fuel. Another low-tech way to improve memory is to get adequate rest. Sleep may allow our brain time to encode memories.
    Interest in friends,family and hobbies does wonders for our memory.A sense of passion or purpose helps us remember. Memory requires us to pay attention to our lives,allowing us to discover in them everything worth remembering.

    As we get older, our memory mechanism is broken,and so cannot be the same as it was before.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:B
    解析:
    本题给出的信息是正确的。依据是第一段第三句中提到“Well, as time goes by, we tend to blame age for problems that are not necessarily age-related.”其实,随着时间的流逝,我们会将一些不一定与年龄相关的问题归咎于年龄。题干中描述的“你年纪越大,记得就越少,这不总是正确的”与原文意思相符,所以选A。
    本题给出的信息是错误的。依据的信息句和上题信息句相同。题干所描述的“我们可以推理出记忆力的问题不是真的和年龄相关”,与原文不相符,因为“not necessarily”指“不一定”,而不是指“not really"(不是真的)。
    本题给出的信息是错误的。依据是第三段第二句:"According to psychologists, as we age, our memory mechanism isn't broken, it's just different.”据心理学家说,当我们变老时,我们的记忆机能不会失效,只是变得和以前不一样了。题干中所陈述的“当我们变老,我们的记忆机能失效,所以它就和以前不一样了”,这个说法与原文恰恰相反,所以选B。
    文章没有谈到这方面的信息。
    本题给出的信息是正确的。依据是第四段:"There are steps you can take to improve your memory,though you have to work to keep your brain in shape .It's like having a good body.You can't go to the gym once a year and expect to stay in top form.”虽然你工作以使你的大脑保持良好状态,但也有一些步骤可以用来提高记忆力。就像拥有一个好身体一样,你不能每年只去一次健身房还期望自己处于巅峰状态。题干陈述“你必须工作以使你的大脑保持灵活,就如同你努力运动使你保持体形一样”,这与原文意思相符,所以选A。
    本题给出的信息是错误的。依据是第五段第二、三句:"Pay attention to what you want to remember.Then give some meaning to it.”关注你想要记忆的东西,并且给它以某种意义。依此推出AM代表的意思应为“attention and meaning"。而题干中说的是“注意力和记忆”与原文不符,所以选B。
    本题给出的信息是正确的。依据是倒数第二段的第一句和第三句:"We can also eat to aid our memory power.”我们还可以通过饮食来帮助我们提高记忆力。"Another low-tech way to improve memory is to get adequate rest.”另外一种低科技的提高记忆力的方法就是要有足够的休息。题干中陈述“对食物正确的选择和大量的休息对记忆有益”,这与原文意思相符,所以选A。

    The Need to Remember
    Some people say they have no memory at all:"I just can't remember a thing!"But of course we all have a memory.Our memory tells us who we are.Our memory helps us to make use in the present of what we have learnt in the past.
    In fact we have different types of memory.For example,our visual memory helps us recall facts and places.Some people have such a strong visual memory that they can remember exactly what they have seen,for example,pages of a book,as a complete picture.
    Our verbal(言语的)memory helps us remember words and figures we may have heard but not seen or written:Items of a shopping list,a chemical formula,dates,or a recipe.
    With our emotional(情感的)memory, we recall situations or places where we had; strong feelings,perhaps of happiness or unhappiness. We also have special memories for smell,taste, touch and sound,and for performing physical movements.
    We have two ways of storing any of these memories. Our short-term memory stores items for up to thirty seconds-enough to remember a telephone number while we dial.Our long-term mem-ory,on the other hand,may store items for a lifetime. Older people in fact have a much biter long-term memory than short-term .They may forget what they have done only a few hours ago,but have the clearest remembrance(记忆)of when they were very young.
    Psychologists tell us that we only remember a few facts about our past,and that we invent the rest. It is as though we remember only the outline of a story.We then make up the details. We of-ten do this in the way we want to remember them,usually so that we appear as the heroes of our own past , or maybe victims needing sympathy(同情).

    Animals do not have a long-term memory.
    A: Right
    B: Wrong
    C: Not mentioned

    答案:C
    解析:
    根据文章第二段第二句话可知,视觉记忆可以帮助我们记起事实和地方,故本题表述正确,视觉记忆可以帮我们记起曾经去过的地方。


    根据文章第二段最后一句话中的“Some people have such...pages of a book...”可知题干正确,故本题表述正确。


    根据文章第三段中的“... words and figures we may have heard but not seen or written...”可知题干表述错误。


    根据文章第四段最后一句可知,perform physical movements说的是special memories。因此题干错误。


    联系全文,本文主要说的是人的记忆,而未提及动物。


    文章倒数第二段对short-term memory和long-term memory作了区分,并未进行重要性的比较。


    根据文章最后一段第一句话可知,关于过去我们只记得一部分,剩下的都是自己编造的,故本题表述正确。

That helps explain why jingles stick in our minds.They are played on loud,flashy TV commercials.They also use rhyme and music to help us remember better.
    Basic organization helps us remember the boring stuff. For example,rather than trying to recall a random list of groceries,we can divide them into categories,such as dairy,meat and produce. For important things like keys and money,we can set up a"forget-me-not"spot where we always keep them.
    We can also eat to aid our memory power. Whole grains,fruits and vegetables are excellent sources of glucose,the brain's preferred fuel. Another low-tech way to improve memory is to get adequate rest. Sleep may allow our brain time to encode memories.
    Interest in friends,family and hobbies does wonders for our memory.A sense of passion or purpose helps us remember. Memory requires us to pay attention to our lives,allowing us to discover in them everything worth remembering.

    Some people tend to have better memories than the rest of us.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:C
    解析:
    本题给出的信息是正确的。依据是第一段第三句中提到“Well, as time goes by, we tend to blame age for problems that are not necessarily age-related.”其实,随着时间的流逝,我们会将一些不一定与年龄相关的问题归咎于年龄。题干中描述的“你年纪越大,记得就越少,这不总是正确的”与原文意思相符,所以选A。
    本题给出的信息是错误的。依据的信息句和上题信息句相同。题干所描述的“我们可以推理出记忆力的问题不是真的和年龄相关”,与原文不相符,因为“not necessarily”指“不一定”,而不是指“not really"(不是真的)。
    本题给出的信息是错误的。依据是第三段第二句:"According to psychologists, as we age, our memory mechanism isn't broken, it's just different.”据心理学家说,当我们变老时,我们的记忆机能不会失效,只是变得和以前不一样了。题干中所陈述的“当我们变老,我们的记忆机能失效,所以它就和以前不一样了”,这个说法与原文恰恰相反,所以选B。
    文章没有谈到这方面的信息。
    本题给出的信息是正确的。依据是第四段:"There are steps you can take to improve your memory,though you have to work to keep your brain in shape .It's like having a good body.You can't go to the gym once a year and expect to stay in top form.”虽然你工作以使你的大脑保持良好状态,但也有一些步骤可以用来提高记忆力。就像拥有一个好身体一样,你不能每年只去一次健身房还期望自己处于巅峰状态。题干陈述“你必须工作以使你的大脑保持灵活,就如同你努力运动使你保持体形一样”,这与原文意思相符,所以选A。
    本题给出的信息是错误的。依据是第五段第二、三句:"Pay attention to what you want to remember.Then give some meaning to it.”关注你想要记忆的东西,并且给它以某种意义。依此推出AM代表的意思应为“attention and meaning"。而题干中说的是“注意力和记忆”与原文不符,所以选B。
    本题给出的信息是正确的。依据是倒数第二段的第一句和第三句:"We can also eat to aid our memory power.”我们还可以通过饮食来帮助我们提高记忆力。"Another low-tech way to improve memory is to get adequate rest.”另外一种低科技的提高记忆力的方法就是要有足够的休息。题干中陈述“对食物正确的选择和大量的休息对记忆有益”,这与原文意思相符,所以选A。

    The Need to Remember
    Some people say they have no memory at all:"I just can't remember a thing!"But of course we all have a memory.Our memory tells us who we are.Our memory helps us to make use in the present of what we have learnt in the past.
    In fact we have different types of memory.For example,our visual memory helps us recall facts and places.Some people have such a strong visual memory that they can remember exactly what they have seen,for example,pages of a book,as a complete picture.
    Our verbal(言语的)memory helps us remember words and figures we may have heard but not seen or written:Items of a shopping list,a chemical formula,dates,or a recipe.
    With our emotional(情感的)memory, we recall situations or places where we had; strong feelings,perhaps of happiness or unhappiness. We also have special memories for smell,taste, touch and sound,and for performing physical movements.
    We have two ways of storing any of these memories. Our short-term memory stores items for up to thirty seconds-enough to remember a telephone number while we dial.Our long-term mem-ory,on the other hand,may store items for a lifetime. Older people in fact have a much biter long-term memory than short-term .They may forget what they have done only a few hours ago,but have the clearest remembrance(记忆)of when they were very young.
    Psychologists tell us that we only remember a few facts about our past,and that we invent the rest. It is as though we remember only the outline of a story.We then make up the details. We of-ten do this in the way we want to remember them,usually so that we appear as the heroes of our own past , or maybe victims needing sympathy(同情).

    Visual memory helps us recall a place we have been to.
    A: Right
    B: Wrong
    C: Not mentioned

    答案:A
    解析:
    根据文章第二段第二句话可知,视觉记忆可以帮助我们记起事实和地方,故本题表述正确,视觉记忆可以帮我们记起曾经去过的地方。


    根据文章第二段最后一句话中的“Some people have such...pages of a book...”可知题干正确,故本题表述正确。


    根据文章第三段中的“... words and figures we may have heard but not seen or written...”可知题干表述错误。


    根据文章第四段最后一句可知,perform physical movements说的是special memories。因此题干错误。


    联系全文,本文主要说的是人的记忆,而未提及动物。


    文章倒数第二段对short-term memory和long-term memory作了区分,并未进行重要性的比较。


    根据文章最后一段第一句话可知,关于过去我们只记得一部分,剩下的都是自己编造的,故本题表述正确。

    I recently went to a charity party. At the end of the visit our host told us that the following Monday was his birthday. He asked21, as a gift to him, we would do something kind for someone else on that day. I thought that was a terrible birthday 22 !

  • 第21题:

    I strongly believe that understanding is more important than love, especially when it comes to parenting and intimate relationships. As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other. The painful reality is that love is just not enough. I"ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to better understand. I hope I"ll continue my work to understand them. The willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water. Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships. As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper—and healthier—our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes

    • A、Because we are caring the others too much.
    • B、Because it is quite difficult to understand the others.
    • C、Because we believe we are always right.
    • D、Because the others have done something wrong.

    Practice 4  I would say to the House, as I said to those who have joined this government: “I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.”  We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering. You ask, what is our policy? I can say: It is to wage war, by sea, land and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us; to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: It is victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival. Let that be realised; no survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no survival for the urge and impulse of the ages, that mankind will move forward towards its goal. But I take up my task with buoyancy and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men. At this time I feel entitled to claim the aid of all, and I say, “come then, let us go forward together with our united strength.” (Sir Winston Churchill)

    正如我曾对参加本届政府的成员所说的那样,我要向下院说:“我没什么可以奉献,有的只是热血、辛劳、眼泪和汗水。”
    摆在我们面前的,是一场极为痛苦的严峻的考验。在我们面前,有许多许多漫长的斗争和苦难的岁月。你们问:我们的政策是什么?我要说,我们的政策就是用我们全部能力,用上帝所给予我们的全部力量,在海上、陆地和空中进行战斗,同一个在人类黑暗悲惨的罪恶史上所从未有过的穷凶极恶的暴政进行战争。这就是我们的政策。你们问:我们的目标是什么?我可以用一个词来回答:胜利——不惜一切代价,去赢得胜利;无论多么可怕,也要赢得胜利,无论道路多么遥远和艰难,也要赢得胜利。因为没有胜利,就不能生存。大家必须认识到这一点:没有胜利,就没有英帝国的存在,就没有英帝国所代表的一切,就没有促使人类朝着自己目标奋勇前进这一时代相应的强烈欲望和动力。但是当我挑起这个担子的时候,我是心情愉快、满怀希望的。我深信,人们不会听任我们的事业遭受失败。此时此刻,我觉得我有权利要求大家的支持,我要说:“来吧,让我们同心协力,一道前进。”
