Ⅳ.阅读理解
When I was an education official in Palo Alto，California，Polly Tyner，the president of our school board，wrote a letter that was printed in the Palo Alto Times.Polly’s son，Jim，had great difficulty in school.He was classified as educationally disabled and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers.But Jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room.His parents acknowledged his academic difficulties，but always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride.Shortly after Jim finished high school，he was killed in a motorcycle accident.After his death，his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper.
Today we buried our 20－year－old son.He was killed instantly in a motorcycle accident on Friday night.How I wish I had known when I talked to him last that it would be the last time.If I had only known I would have said，“Jim，I love you and I’m very proud of you.”
I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he brought to the lives of the many who loved him.I would have taken time to appreciate his beautiful smile，the sound of his laughter，his genuine love of people.
When you put all the good qualities on the scale and you try to balance all the irritating phenomena such as the radio which was always too loud，the haircut that wasn’t to our liking，the dirty socks under the bed，etc.，your angry feelings won’t amount to much.
I won’t get another chance to tell my son all I would have wanted him to hear，but，other parents，you do have a chance.Tell your young people what you would want them to hear if you knew it would be your last conversation.The last time I talked to Jim was the day he died.He called me to say，“Hi，Mom! I just called to say I love you.Got to go to work.Bye.” He gave me something to treasure forever.
If there is any purpose at all to Jim’s death，maybe it is to make others appreciate more of life and to have people，especially families，take the time to let each other know just how much we care.
You may never have another chance.
41. According to the passage，we know that________.
A．Jim kept to himself
B．Jim did very well in his studies
C．Jim’s parents were patient with him
D．Jim failed to finish his high school
42. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A．Many people in the school loved him.
B．Jim’s smile cheered up his family.
C．Jim was killed in a motorcycle accident at the age of 20.
D．Jim wanted to be a motorcyclist after his graduation.
43. The underlined word “irritating” in Paragraph 4 means__________.
A．annoying
B．aggressive
C．impatient
D．thrilling
44. By writing the letter printed in the Palo Alto Times，the author intends to________.
A．mourn her son’s sudden death in a traffic accident
B．remind people to be cautious of motorcycles
C．suggest people taking the chance to express their love in time
D．appreciate more of life than ever before
45. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A．Love Your Family
B．Do It Today
C．Walk with Pride
D．Appreciate Smiles
课时作业答案
Ⅰ.单项填空
1．C 根据“I’ve been writing a novel this year”意为“一直忙于写一本小说”可知，并不是经常去看电影，而只是偶尔去看。often和frequently意为“经常，频繁地”，nearly意为“几乎，差不多”；occasionally意为“偶尔，有时”，符合语境。
2．C How often...？是问频度，表示“多久……”，how soon表示“从现在起还要多长时间”，how long表示“多长时间”问时间，how far“多远”问距离。
3．A now and then意为“不时，时而”，符合句意。here and there到处，处处，more or less或多或少，sooner or later迟早。
4．C absolutely绝对地；extremely极端地；thoroughly详细地，彻底地；completely完整地。
5．C be set in以……为背景，此处用过去分词短语，相当于一个非限制性定语从句which is set in Tang Dynasty的省略形式。
6．A 本题考查it作形式宾语的用法，真正的宾语是后面的不定式短语“to finish the work in such a short time”。
7．D she played in the film是宾语从句，修饰role，构成短语play a role in sth.“在……中扮演角色”。
8．C come out意为“出版”，符合句意。come about产生，come across偶然遇见，come over过来。
9．C 此题考查名词词义的辨析。抽象名词fun不可数，不可与a/an连用，也不可加s。而pleasure作不可数名词时，意为“快乐，娱乐，满足；意志，愿望”，也可作可数名词，意为“使人快乐的事，乐趣”，可与不定冠词连用。
10．D moved用于“人感到感动”； moving则指事物“令人感动的”。
11．B care about关心，顾虑，在乎，care for喜欢，想要，照顾，take care小心，当心，take care of照料，照顾。
12．B make sb.do sth.但用在被动语态中应为sb.be made to do；marry是及物动词，后直接跟宾语，即marry sb.。
13．C 本题考查分词的完成式作状语。wait发生在谓语动词realize之前，故用完成式。句意为：在排队等了半个小时后，汤姆突然意识到他把钱包忘在家里了。
14．D get married强调动作；be married强调状态。
15．A take place和appear是不及物动词(短语)，所以没有被动语态。
Ⅱ.句子翻译
16．To their disappointment，they have to go on working during National Day.
17．It’s agreed that his uncle should be the CEO of the computer company.
18．He played an important part in the committee.
19．They fell in love with each other at the first sight and got married soon.
20．我非常高兴招待父母吃饭。
Ⅲ.完形填空
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。讲述的是作者在慈善协会收养动物的经历。
21．D 由上文的adopt a couple of kittens以及第27空后的settled on adopting two kittens可知，这里有许多动物供人们“收养”(adoption)。
22．B 由第32空后的a new building to help可推出慈善协会场地有限。room用做不可数名词，表示“空间”。
23．C 两个分句之间为让步关系。即使动物的空间和供给都很有限，但是那里的工作人员尽职尽责。
24．D still尽管如此，然而，表示转折。
25．A 尽管那里的工作人员尽职尽责，但他们好像没有足够的食物和药品来维持动物“健康”(healthy)。
26．A 每只动物都非常可爱，作者都喜欢。fall in love with...爱上/喜欢上……。
27．C 母亲和作者“最后”(finally)决定收养两只小猫。settle on sth.选定/决定某事。
28．D “我们”给两只小猫取了名字叫做Sox和Sierra。name在此用做动词，意为“命名，取名”。
29．B “我们”到前台签协议，履行手续。sign the papers签协议。
30．D 由第39空后的in the donation box可知答案。在签协议的时候，作者注意到了柜台上的一个捐助箱。
31．C 由下文推断，慈善协会希望得到各界捐款，改善现状。
32．C 慈善协会希望获得足够的捐款来给动物们买更多的给养，并且新建大楼，以此来帮助更多被抛弃的动物。
33．A be sure to肯定，一定会。
34．C 由下文的through the parking lot at the store可推断，作者和母亲是去购物。
35．D 作者注意到离车不远处有一张绿色的纸。notice表示“(无意识地)注意到”。
36．D 作者走过去，把钱捡起来。pick up捡起。
37．B what to do with如何处理。
38．A 作者请母亲陪同一起到慈善协会献爱心。
39．D 作者把20元的钞票放在捐款箱内。

Ⅳ.阅读理解
【语篇解读】 本篇是一篇记叙文，通过一位母亲的经历和体会告诉人们要及时表达关爱。
41．C 理解文中具体信息，由第一段第三句中：“...and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers.”可知。
42．D
理解文中具体信息，A、B、C项分别在第一、二、三段中提到，D项未提到。
43．A 根据上下文推断生词的词义，根据画线单词之后的例子。收音机声音太大，不喜欢的发型，床下的脏袜子等可推断出irritating是“使人不快的；烦人的”意思。
44．C 理解作者的意图、观点和态度。由文章的最后三段可得出答案：及时表达关爱。
45．B 理解主旨和要义，考查概括能力。标题含义为“从现在做起”。
