One of the most 12 moral values for Americans is honesty. The wellknown 13 about George Washington and the cherry tree teaches this value 14 . Little George cut down his father's favorite cherry tree 15 trying out his new hatchet. When his father asked him about it，
George said，
“I cannot tell a lie. I did it with my hatchet.” Instead of 16 ，
George received praise. Sometimes American honesty—being open and direct—can 17 people. But Americans still believe that “honesty is the best policy”.
Another 18 Americans respect is perseverance(毅力). Remember Aesop's fable about the turtle and the rabbit that had a 19 ？ The rabbit thought he could 20 easily，

the Samaritan man found a poor traveller lying on the road. The kind Samaritan，
24 just passing by，
stopped to help this person in need. Compassion can even turn into a positive 25 . In autumn 1992，
people in Iowa sent truckloads of water to help Floridians 26 by a hurricane. The next summer，
during the Midwest flooding，
Florida 27 the favor.
In no way can this brief description 28 all the moral values honored by Americans. Courage，

Ⅲ.阅读理解
Dog walkers provide a 20 to 60minute daily walk for a client's(客户)dog， making sure the dog answers the call of nature and gets proper exercise. They often walk more than one dog at a time. Some walkers work for dogwalking services， especially when starting out. Others have their own businesses，
and build by word of mouth and advertising. Dog walkers often work parttime， and some provide other services like pet sitting or transporting.
In New York，
dog walkers usually earn about $25 an hour. If you work for a dogwalking business， you may earn less；if you are on your own dealing with several dogs at the same time， it may be more.
What do you have to do to be a dog walker？
First， have a real love of dogs， and have a good knowledge of how to get on with dogs. Try calling dogwalking services to find out about openings. If you're on your own， you'll need to network and market yourself. You might advertise your services in pet offices， grooming businesses， or neighborhood papers. You will need business cards and a mobile phone， and have good references and a clean background. You'll also have to deal with taxes and insurance. You should be physically fit， friendly， neatly dressed and extremely dependable. Many dog walkers are bonded(被担保的)and insured， and this is a definite selling point to clients. Of course， you will be cleaning up dog waste！You will also be outside in all kinds of weather. You may have to deal with dogs that don't like each other， and difficult owners. It's also an upanddown kind of business—clients can come and go.
For pet lovers， spending the workday with dogs instead of navigating office politics is its own reward！You are your own boss—you can dress casually， your doggy clients will love you unconditionally， and you'll get some great exercise！
31.

课时作业(二十)
.1.C 本题考查convenient的用法。convenient意为“方便的”，常用于it is convenient (for sb.)to do…或sth. is convenient to sb.结构。convenient 常用it 作主语，指时间；另外，whenever引导时间状语从句，其谓语动词应用一般现在时表示将来。故选C。
2．A 本题考查time短语的意思。句意：桌旁坐着五个饥饿的孩子，食物很快就被吃光了。in no time马上，立刻；at one time一度，曾经；at the same time同时；on time准时。
3．B 本题考查祈使句。题目中的破折号相当于and。
4．A 本题考查交际用语。根据题意“是她的错”，因此是“向她道歉，没门儿”，而no way正是此意。
5．C 本题考查固定搭配。句意：这个问题不容易解决，所以你最好仔细地考虑一下。solution与介词to搭配。
6．C 本题考查名词辨析。句意：我没有心情说笑话。mood心情，心境； mind脑子，心思；form形式；thought想法。
7．D 句意：请不要说这个，我不想让它传播出去。get around(消息)传开，传出去。
8．B 本题考查非谓语动词。表示“被困在拥挤的交通里”，要用be stuck in，也就是主句主语与stick之间是被动含义。 A、C不表示被动。D则强调被动动作正在进行，这不符合语境。因此选B。
9．A 考查动词短语辨析。get down to (doing) sth.开始(做)某事。
10.
C 本题考查it 的用法。it在句中作形式主语，watching myself on TV作真正的主语。
.道德价值在美国就像在其他任何的国家一样。事实上，许多关于道德的观点全球是一致的，但是，不同的文化则有不同的故事和传统来作为载体。文章通过耳熟能详的故事，向我们介绍了美国的道德价值观。
11．D 由常识可知，道德价值观是特定文化的产物，所以选择culture(文化)。 continent大陆，陆地；character特征，特点；content内容。
12．B 句意为：美国人最基本的(basic)道德价值之一是诚实。
13．C 华盛顿砍樱桃树的故事，是早期流传下来的未经证实的故事，但已被普遍认为是基于史实的，所以选legend，意为“传说，历史传奇故事”。
14．B 通过一个故事清楚地(clearly)表达出了最基本的道德观念。
15．A 句意为：小乔治在试他的新斧头时砍倒了爸爸最心爱的樱桃树。while意为“在……时”， while trying out＝while he was trying out。
16．B 句意为：乔治非但未被惩罚(punishment)，反而因为诚实而被赞赏。
17．D 这里指的是对别人感情上的伤害，所以要用offend。
18．C perseverance和上文的honesty以及下文的compassion都是作者介绍的美德(virtue)。
19．B 由语境可知，这是龟兔赛跑的故事，所以要用race。
20．A 兔子以为自己可以很轻松地赢(win)，便睡了一会儿。
21．C 这里讲的是“坚韧，坚定不移(perseverance)”，所以应选give up。
22．A 圣经中《好撒马利亚人》的故事“描述”了一个流露同情心的人。
23．C 在这个撒马利亚人出发去某个(certain)城市的途中，看到一个可怜的旅客躺在路旁。
24．D 句意为：这位仁慈的撒马利亚人没有视而不见，而是停下来帮助这个需要帮助的人。
25．B 句意为：同情心还可以变成一个正面的(积极的)循环(a positive circle)。
26．D 在这几个词中只有hit可以表示“(自然灾害的)袭击”。
27．B 句意为：而在第二年夏天中西部闹水灾的时候，佛罗里达人便投桃报李。
28．A 句意为：在这么短短的一篇文章里，无论如何也不能将美国人所尊崇的道德述尽。cover“包括，论及。”
29．C 在所给的词中，只有loyalty(忠诚)和courage(勇气)，responsibility(责任)，gratitude(感激)同属于道德的范畴。
30．A 句意为：但是不论这张道德表是长还是短，道德的价值都是无价的。
.赚钱的方式千千万万，帮人遛狗也能赚钱，并且已经成了一种职业。那么遛狗员究竟能赚多少钱？他们应该具备什么样的素质呢？
31．A 主旨大意题。从本文第三段What do you have to do to be a dog walker？可知，作者是在向读者介绍遛狗员所要做的事，并非是做广告或是介绍纽约的生活。
32．B 细节理解题。综观全文可知，作者并没有提及如何驯狗的问题。
33．C 推理判断题。从文章第一段可以看出遛狗员通常是work parttime，并且provide a 20 to 60minute daily walk，因此想在每天的闲暇时间挣点钱的人看了这篇文章会有所收获。
34．D 段落大意题。文章第五段重点描述了遛狗员在工作时间可能面临的一些困难或麻烦，这是他们工作中不好的一面。
