Ⅲ.阅读理解
I began working in journalism(资讯工作)when I was eight. It was my mother's idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself，
and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition.
With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible，
making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was supper time，
I walked back home.
“How many did you sell，
my boy？” My mother asked.
“None.”
“Where did you go？”
“The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.”
“What did you do？”
“Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”
“You just stood there？”
“Didn't sell a single one.”
“My God，
Russell！”
Uncle Allen put in，
“Well，
I've decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickle(五分镍币). It was the first nickle I earned.
Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells，
address adults with selfconfidence(自信)，
and persuade them by saying that no one，
no matter how poor，
could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.
One day，
I told my mother I'd changed my mind. I didn't want to make a success in the magazine business.
“If you think you can change your mind like this， ” she replied，
“you'll become a goodfornothing.” She insisted that，
as soon as school was over，
I should start ringing doorbells，
selling magazines. Whenever I said no，
she would scold me.
My mother and I had fought this_battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother，
dissatisfied with my father's plain workman's life，
determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that，
forty years later，
such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husband's people for true life and love.
31.
Why did the boy start his job young？
A．He wanted to be famous in the future.
B．The job was quite easy for him.
C．His mother had high hopes for him.
D．The competition for the job was fierce.
32.
From the dialogue between the boy and his mother，
we learn that the mother was________.
A．excited
B．interested
C．ashamed
D．disappointed
33.
What did the mother do when the boy wanted to give up？
A．She forced him to continue.
B．She punished him.
C．She gave him some money.
D．She changed her plan.
34.
What does the underlined phrase “this battle”(last paragraph) refer to？
A．The war between the boy's parents.
B．The argument between the boy and his mother.
C．The quarrel between the boy and his customers.
D．The fight between the boy and his father.

课时作业(十八)
Ⅰ.1.B 本题考查介词的用法。句意：Elizabeth取得了她难以想象的成功。beyond 超过。其他词义不符。
2．C 根据语境可知这个地图“非常有价值”，因此选C。
3．A 句意：她没有广泛的兴趣爱好，因此没有参加任何当地的俱乐部。narrow狭小的。
4．C 本题考查定语从句。从句还原后为“New York is an example of many cities”，所以选择of which。
5．B be designed for意为“为……设计/准备”。
6．B 考查动词短语的辨析。句意：你认为综合能力教学法抑制了聪明学生的发展吗？hold back意为“阻止，抑制”，符合句意。hold out意为“伸出，维持”；hold on意为“继续，不挂断电话”；hold up意为“阻碍，耽搁”，均不符合句意。
7. D 从结构分析，signs后面是非谓语作定语，sign与indicate是逻辑上的主动关系，因此用现在分词。
8．C 考查非谓语动词的用法。该题非谓语动词作定语，因China 与found 之间为被动关系，且该动作发生在过去，故用过去分词。
9．A 根据语境判断场景发生在买衣服的店主和顾客间。店主认为顾客想花10元买一件T恤衫太荒谬了。
10. B 考查句型搭配。句意：在山区种植果树是很有意义的。it是形式主语，真正的主语是动词不定式短语。make good sense意为“很有意义”。
.俗话说“贪小便宜吃大亏”，在生活中诚信显得很重要。本文通过描述Mr Glen的一段亲身经历说明了这一道理。
11．A 考查固定搭配。set up设立，成立；come up走近，出现；go up上升，增长；call up召唤，使想起。由语境可知选A，他成立了他的小公司。
12．C 根据全文可知，Mr Glen把这次教训当作交了一次“额外的”学费。extra额外的，不包括在价目内的。文章最后一段中because the additional high “school” fee也有暗示。
13．B 根据前文decided to return to the homeland可知，此处表示“离开”。
14．C 由空后的made through years of work after school and the scholarships 可知，他用他的积蓄(课外工作所得和奖学金)买的。saving存款，积蓄。
15．C 考查固定搭配。take down拿下，摘下；put down放下，拒绝；lie down躺下；look down俯视，跌价。此处的意思是：手表也要摘下来进行检查。
16．C 根据后文中nearly ￥100,000可排除A和B，从had to pay the tax可知，携带特殊的物品出境需要缴税。
17．B it代指前面的the tax。
18．D 根据后文中carrying fake and shoddy(劣质的)goods可知。
19．B be proud of以……自豪。他以为自己的小聪明会得逞，正洋洋自得。
20．A in the presence of Glen“当着Glen的面”。
21．D 定语从句的引导词which指代the watch，cost的主语为物，spend的主语为人。
22．A 根据Glen was amazed可知答案。他还没有明白过来是怎么回事，就被带到了办公室。
23．D 根据后文“他知道只有‘黑名单’上的人才‘享受’这种特殊待遇，工作人员仔细检查了他的箱子”可以判断，应选D项。
24．B 此处指根据多次出入境的经历，他知道……
25．A 工作人员警告他无论什么时候出入境，他都必须接受检查。
26．B 这是一个省略的条件状语从句。If(he was) found out reusing and carrying fake and shoddy(劣质的)goods, he would be charged according to law! find out“查明(真相)”。
27．D board the plane登机。
28．D 固定短语make a deep impression on表示“对……留下深刻的印象”。
29．A 根据前文故事可知，他的经历让他懂得了诚实的重要性。
30．A 他将永远牢记诚信——他成功的秘密。
.这篇短文讲述了一个年轻男孩在他妈妈的鼓励和帮助下，很早就参加了工作，四十年后成为一名著名的资讯工作者的故事。
31．C 细节推断题。根据第一段中的She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition. 可判断出男孩年龄很小时就开始参加工作的原因是他妈妈对他抱有很高的期望。
32．D 细节推断题。根据他妈妈说的话可判断出他妈妈很失望。
33．A 细节推断题。根据倒数第二段中的She insisted that，as soon as school was over，I should start ringing doorbells，selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me. 可判断出当男孩决定放弃工作时，他妈妈强迫他继续干下去。
34．B 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段中的She insisted that，as soon as school was over，I should start ringing doorbells，selling magazines. Whenever I said no，she would scold me. 判断出this battle指的是他与妈妈之间的争论。
