(2016·安徽七校高三第二次大联考)
Public bookshelves are appearing across Germany on street corners,city squares and in suburban supermarkets.In these freeforall libraries,people can grab whatever they want to read,and leave behind anything they want for others.There’s no need to register,no due date,and you can take or give as many as you want.“This project is aimed at everyone who likes to read.It is open for everybody,”
Michael
Aubermann,one of the organizers of the free book exchange said.
The western city’s latest public shelf was put up next to Bayenturm.It is the fourth free shelf that Aubermann’s group,the Cologne Citizen’s Foundation,has placed outside.“We set up our other outdoor shelves last year and it’s been working really well,”
said Aubermann.The public bookshelves,which are usually financed by donations and cared for by local volunteer groups,have appeared independently of each other in many cities,suburbs and villages.Each shelf holds around 200 books and it takes about six weeks for a complete turnover,with all the old titles replaced by new ones.
Even commercial book stores and online book sellers seem to support the idea of free book exchanges.“We see this project rather as a sales promotion than as competition,”
said Elmar Muether.“If books are present everywhere,it helps our business,too.”
So far,the Cologne book group has had few problems with damage or other problems.Aubermann said,“Propaganda (宣传) is the only kind of literature we do not allow here.”
At another bookshelf in the Bayenthal neighborhood,the lower shelves are reserved for children’s literature only.“It is important that we make it easy for everyone to participate in this ‘reading culture on the street’—from old readers to kids to immigrants,” Aubermann said.
While most of the shelves have so far been put up in upscale_neighborhoods,Aubermann and the 20 volunteers who help look after the project are planning to put up future shelves in poor neighborhoods,where citizens often don’t have as much access to literature.
1.Which of the following is TRUE about the public bookshelves?
A.People can take the books and leave their books at will.
B.People can’t borrow books unless they donate books.
C.People can borrow whatever they like after registering.
D.People have to return the books according to the required time.
2.According to Aubermann,the public bookshelves________.
A.are financed by local volunteers
B.have been going well since their birth
C.were managed by the local government
D.will hold more books and take a shorter turnover
3.The underlined phrase “upscale neighborhoods” refers to________.
A.communities that have many people
B.communities that have many tall buildings
C.communities that are free to live in
D.communities that are of high grade
4.Which might be the best title for the passage?
A.Public Reading Becomes Popular Worldwide
B.New Trends of Bookshelves in Germany
C.Public Bookshelves Spread Across Germany
D.Reading Culture on the Street in Europe

.单项填空
1.解析: 第一句是提出建议,因此应该用“That sounds great.”来接受对方的提议。
答案: C
2.解析: 句意为:——你更喜欢这两个包中的哪一个?——大的那个。我觉得它非常漂亮。第一空“the+比较级”意为“两者中更/较……的”;第二空:a most=a very,无比较含义。
答案: A
3.解析: 考查倒装。no sooner...than...意为“一……就……”。当no sooner位于句首时,句子需要用部分倒装。根据was asked可知本空应该用过去完成时。
答案: A
4.解析: 句意为:多拉有一些缺点,但是从整体上来看,她似乎是个既聪明又讨人喜欢的人。on the contrary相反;up to now到目前为止;in return for作为对……的回报;on the whole从整体上看,总的来说。
答案: D
5.解析: 在This is the first time that...句型中,从句常用现在完成时,且appoint与woman之间为动宾关系,故选C。
答案: C
6.解析: 考查名词辨析。根据“Black一家得靠朋友和亲戚过活”可知,他们在一场大火中失去了一切。possession用复数形式表示“财产”,符合题意。gallery画廊;reputation名声;signature签名。
答案: D
7.解析: 句意为:虽然电脑对我们的日常生活很方便,但它也可能会引起其他问题。本题考查状语从句。while相当于although,意为:虽然,尽管;whether是否;because因为;as因为,由于。
答案: D
8.解析: 考查动词辨析。句意为:当今,孩子们接触过多暴力网络游戏,这对他们的性格发展不好。be exposed to接触……,暴露在……,符合题意。

答案: C
10.解析: 句意为:——Tom在吗?——请稍等,我去看看能否为你找到他。hold on别挂断;hold up举起,竖起;hold out伸出;hold off推迟。根据语境可知,B项正确。

12.解析: 句意为:——我希望在我的生日聚会上能见到你。——噢,天哪,我差点忘了。什么时候?本题考查动词时态。根据语境是到现在为止几乎忘记了,所以用现在完成时最合适,因此D项正确。
答案: D
13.解析: 句意为:——难道那不是我们的英语老师吗?——不是,不可能是他。他正在大厅里演讲。由后面“他正在大厅里演讲”可知答案为can’t(不可能),表强烈的否定推测。mustn’t被禁止,绝对不能;won’t将不会;may not也许不。
答案: A
14.解析: 句意为:Johnson是刚毕业的大学生。他很难应付出现的任何问题。本题考查宾语从句的用法。连接代词whatever引导的名词性从句作介词with的宾语,whatever又在从句中作定语修饰problems,whatever problems arise相当于any problems that arise。
答案: C
15.解析: 句意为:直到他们离开学校后,他们才意识到他们的老师是多么爱他们并给予了他们许多帮助。not until引导的状语位于句首时,主句要用部分倒装语序。
答案: A
