Ⅱ.阅读理解(8 min.)Lifechanging disaster awaits the drunken driver. And he is proof. At just 18 years of age, he could be a classmate or a friend, and that familiarity adds to the power of his words. He has spoken to more than 2，500 high school students so far, and he has noticed their unusual silence.
“A lot of teachers say, ‘Don't drink，’ but I'm not going to say that, because I know that students are going to do it，” Nepola says. “I just say, ‘Don't get in a car.’”
One year ago, Nepola, having been with friends drinking, lost control of his car and was thrown into trees 20 feet away. He was found covered in blood, with many bones broken.
At Hackensack University Medical Center, his skull(头骨) was opened to relieve pressure on his brain. He was diagnosed with traumatic(创伤性) brain injury and remained in a coma(昏迷) and on life support for nearly three weeks.At Children's Specialized Hospital in New Brunswick, N．J. physical therapist Erin Leahy initially found Nepola unable to move the right side of his body. But by the end of his sixweek stay, he was able to walk out of the building. Leahy called that an inspiration and a miracle.
But Nepola's recovery is incomplete. Brain and muscular therapy(肌肉治疗) has helped him regain movement in his right arm, In the process of recovery, Nepola has thought deeply about what happened and why, and decided to share his story. Encouraged by his doctor, Sanjeev Kaul, he teamed with Gonzalez and began attending assemblies in April.
He said he was nervous at first, but has grown used to the spotlight. And his rehabilitation(康复) and visible trauma() help him draw serious attention from students.
Besides, “I'm not a wall，” he said. “I feel like I know how to talk to people.”
Driving drunk, he tells students, is like playing Russian roulette(俄罗斯轮盘赌博): “You might do it a bunch of times, 1. The main purpose of the text is to ______.

Ⅲ.阅读简答(10 min.)(原创)A Mother's Loves after the fire was put out.
This was a large fire. It took a long time and many firefighters to finally bring the enormous blaze under control. At that moment I was free to investigate the cat noises, which I still heard. There continued to be a tremendous amount of smoke and intense heat coming from the buildings. I couldn't see much, but I followed the meowing(猫叫声) to a spot on the sidewalk about five feet away from the front of the garage. There, rrified little kittens. Then I found two more, one in the street and one across the street. They must have been in the buildings, as their fur was badly singed (烧焦). I yelled for a box and out of the crowd around me, five kittens in the box, I carried them to the porch of a neighboring house. I started looking for a mother cat. It was obvious that the mother had gone into the burning garage and carried each of her babies, one by one, out to the sidewalk. Five separate trips into the raging heat and deadly smoke — it was hard to imagine. But what had happened to her?
A cop told me he had seen a cat go into a vacant lot near where I had found the last two kittens. She was there, lying down and crying. She was terribly hurt: her eyes were blistered shut, her paws were blackened, and her fur was singed all over her body. In some places you could see her reddened skin showing through the burned fur. She was too weak to move anymore. I went over to her slowly, talking gently as I approached. I didn't want to alarm her. When I picked her up, she cried in pain, but she didn't struggle. She gave me a look of utter exhaustion and then relaxed in my arms as much as her pain would allow. Sensing her trust in me, I felt my throat tighten and the tears start in my eyes. I was determined to save this brave little cat and her family. Their_lives_were_actually_in_my_hands.

动词的语态(1)
1. C 句意：我们小时候就被教过。故用被动语态。根据句意应选一般现在时的被动语态。
2. B 句意：这个钻石矿是在那个小男孩玩捉迷藏的时候偶然被发现的。
3. B 句意：—你听说了市场的那场大火吗？—听说了，幸好没有人受伤。人是被烧伤，hurt与主语no one之间为被动关系，应使用被动语态。根据第一个人使用的是现在完成时强调对现在的影响，说明是过去的事情，但并非“过去的过去”，而要用一般过去时的被动语态，故选B。
4. D it 指代 the readingroom，所以只能用被动，考虑到only to be told 表示结果，所以选择D。
5. B 句意为：许多人在革命圣地留下了泪水。他们从心底里被感动了。根据主谓一致的原则，shed不是单数形式，可见其是一个过去式。
6. B 句意为：去年，仅在深圳就有64人死于电瓶车引起的268起事故中。有具体的过去时间用一般过去时，此处要用被动语态。
7. B 句意为：他们快到目的地时他的腿受伤了，被送到了附近的一家医院。他本人腿受伤是被送到医院的，而且是过去的动作。
8. A 句意为：一只受到老师和学生喜爱的温顺的狗昨天在收容中心得到领养。有具体的过去时间，用一般过去时；主语是狗不是老师和学生，用单数；狗是被收养，用被动语态。
9. A 句意为：本书的首页就告诉了我们怎样迅速地解决这个问题。此句谈到的是一本书的内容，这是一个客观事实，要用一般现在时。如果是主动的，应该是tell about/of sth.的结构，而此句的结构是tell sb. sth.。
10. B 句意为：为孩子们提供了很多项目，野营持续5到8天。根据后面一个分句可知是一般现在时，项目是被提供。
11. C 考查动词的时态和语态。句意为：今年有6名工人上班时死于心脏病。每个案例中都有一个完整的家庭被闹了个底朝天。此题含有两个句子，后一个句子是前一个句子的结果，根据上一个句子的一般过去时可知本句也应该用一般过去时，且其动作是被动的。
12. B 句意为：——为什么不走这条路？这可是捷径。——恐怕不行。路正在修。it指的是上文中提到的this road，其“修理”是被动的动作，I am afraid we can't.提供的信息是“现在不能走”，可见是“正在修理之中”。可见是“现在进行时的被动语态”。
13. C 句意为：——这本书我能借多久？——一周。你要在星期一归还。return the book确实是将来的动作，但是我们现在所填的是动词expect，这些表示“希望，想要”之类的动词如：want, hope等一般是不用于将来时的，要用一般现在时表示将来。
14. D challenge同ideas之间存在被动关系。句子表“当年牛顿的许多想法受到了质疑”之意。
15. D 句意：——你看上去怎么这么疲劳？——Fred半小时前辞职了。他的工作一直留在那里没人做。因句中有since所以要用完成时，又因空前主语是事情，所以要用被动。
16. C 句意为：琳达确保客人到来之前摆放好了桌子。考查动词set的用法和被动语态。set a table意为“摆放桌子”， tables为主语，故用被动结构。make sure后面一般接宾语从句。
17. D 句意为：因为越来越多的森林被破坏，每年都有大量的泥土被冲走。quantities of＋n.作主语，谓语动词一般用复数；earth 与wash away构成被动关系，故选D。
18. A 句意为：如果没有人注意，他就不会炫耀了。如果主句用将来时，在时间、条件和让步状语从句中要用一般现在时表示将来。又因if 从句是take notice of…的被动语态结构，故选A。
19. D 句意：出现在法庭上的证人受到鼓励说出事情的真相，而不是掩盖事实。此题主要考查“受到鼓励”应该用被动的形式。而who appeared in court是定语从句，所填之项是谓语动词，encouraged作谓语动词时没有被动的意义。
20. A 句意：据当地报刊报道说，火车冲下山去了，火车司机也在事故中丧生了。火车冲下山的过去发生的事，在这件事被报道之前火车司机就去世了，所以报道的动作是过去，而司机是在车祸中丧生，故用被动。
21. C 根据上文中的must have been可知是表示对过去的猜测。故用一般过去时。
22. C 句意为：亚马逊谷对地球的自然平衡来说是相当重要的，40%的地球氧气出自那里。这是一个客观事实，要用一般现在时，氧气不会自己跑出来，要用被动语态。
23. B 句意为：每天都在开发一些新的药物和设备来拓展我们的生活。从语境上看，develop 不仅要用被动语态，而且要用进行时态。
24. B 句意为：学生们一年可以获得50英镑来用之于课本和文具的开销。谓语为 give sb. sth.结构的被动语态形式。
25. B 句意为：随着科学技术的进步，越来越多的新的技术引进到IT产业中。技术应该是“被”引进，故用被动语态；根据语境句子应用现在进行时。
26. B 句意为：——亲爱的，味道如何。——牛肉不好吃，炒得太老了。从句意上看，“牛肉”应该是“被”炒，故句子要用被动语态；从时间上看，由于句中有 didn't taste very good，所以“炒得太久”应该在这一过去时间之前，故用过去完成时。
27. A 句意：到这个月末所有推迟的工作都将会完成。定语从句中的时态强调过去的动作对现在造成的影响，故用现在完成时；而主句的谓语动词所依据的时间状语是by the end of this month，by the end of＋将来的时间，用将来完成时。
28. B 句意：——正在广播我乘的飞机。我要上路了，再见。——再见，祝你安全抵达！根据对话所提供的情景可知，是上飞机之前的告别对话。
29. A 句意：商店上面的一间房子要举办一场聚会，有几个工人正在忙着摆桌子。根据were busily setting可知，主句用的是过去进行时，而“聚会的举行”就会是“过去的将来的动作”。
30. C 时态与语态。第一空定语从句的谓语locate为及物动词，用被动语态；第二空考查虚拟语气的用法：表示“建议”、“命令”、“要求”等相关的名词性从句用“(should) ＋v.原形”充当谓语。
