三、转化
将一个单词由一种词类转用为另一种词类，这种构词就叫做转化。单词转化后的意义往往与未转化前的意义有密切的联系
名词转化为动词
Back n.背 →
支持，后退
Handle n.柄，把手→ 处理
对付
形容词转化为动词
slow adj
慢的 → v.放慢
better adj 较好的→ v.改善
动词转化为名词

四、阅读理解
（2017·山东省济南市高三3月高考模拟考试）
A
Suppose you don’t need your car today. And suppose, as it happens, that a stranger in your area does need a car. Would you be willing to rent yours out?
Severalcar-sharing start-ups, including Getaround, RelayRides and JustShareIt, are eager to conneccar owners with renters this way. The companies have different rules, but participating owners receive, generally speaking, about two-thirds of the rental earnings. RelayRides says an owner of a midsize, late-model sedan who rents out a car for 10 hours a week could expect to clear about ＄3,000 a year.
Peer-to-peer car sharing remains in the trial stage; it can be found in San Francisco and a few other places. It has a long way to go before it becomes the auto equivalent of Airbnb, the surprise success story for peer-to-peer sharing of space in apartments and houses.
Shelby Clark, founder of RelayRides, says potential investors in his company have been concerned that owners will be afraid to hand their car over to strangers. To address that, he points to Airbnb, saying, “Letting people sleep in your living room is much more of a disturbance into your personal space than letting someone use your car.”
All of these companies offer their own insurance coverage for their renters, which are supposed to put owners’minds at ease. But only two states—California and Oregon—have passed laws to clarify that an owner will not suffer any consequences should a car-sharing renter have an accident.
“In all the other states, legal ambiguity remains,” Shelby Clark says. “If a renter should be involved in a serious accident in those states, the victim can be expected to go after every party possible, including the car’s owner.”
Also to remove the worries of car owners, the driving records of renters are checked for recent serious violations.
56. What does the underlined word “sedan” in Paragraph 2 probably refer to?
A. A kind of car.
B. An owner of a car.
C. A renting company.
D. A car-sharing renter.
57. Which of the following is true of Airbnb?
A. It cares little about personal privacy.
B. It deals with house-sharing successfully.
C. It is a very popular car-sharing company.
D. Its ideas are being tried out in some states.
58. If a car-sharing renter should have an accident in California, the car’s owner
A. has to take legal responsibility
B. will not suffer the consequence
C. is not covered by health insurance
D. must pay the insurance for the renter
59. According to the text, more car-owners will participate in the service, if
A. legal ambiguity is clarified in all the states
B. renters are warned not to violate traffic rules
C. more money is given to participating owners
D. people are aware of the importance of sharing
60. It can be learned from the text that car-sharing
A. makes no profit
B. remains in popularity
C. is against the state law
D. is a new business model
B
After spending a year in Brazil on a student exchange program, her mother recalled, Marie Colvin returned home to find that her classmates had narrowed down their college choices. “Everyone else was already admitted to college,” her mother, Rosemarie Colvin, said from the family home. “So she took our car and drove up to Yale and said, ‘You have to let me in.’s”
Impressed—she was a National Merit(全国英才) finalist who had picked up Portuguese in Brazil—Yaledid, admitting her to the class of 1978, where she started writing for The Yale Daily News “and decided to be a journalist,” her mother said.
On Wednesday, Marie Colvin, 56, an experienced journalist for The Sunday Times of London, was killed as Syrian forces shelled the city of Homs. She was working in a temporary media center that was destroyed in the attack.
“She was supposed to leave Syria on Wednesday”, Ms. Colvin said. “Her editor told me he called her yesterday and said it was getting too dangerous and they wanted to take her out. She said she was doing a story and she wanted to finish it. ”
Ms. Colvin said it was pointless to try to prevent her daughter from going to conflict zones. “If you knew my daughter,” she said, “it would have been such a waste of words. She was determined, she was enthusiastic about what she did, it was her life. There was no saying ‘Don’t do this.’This is who she was, absolutely who she was and what she believed in: cover the story, not just have pictures of it, but bring it to life in the deepest way you could.” So it was not a surprise when she took an interest in journalism, her mother said.
61. From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 we can infer that
A. Yale University was her last choice
B. Yale must keep its promise to Marie
C. Marie Colvin was confident of herself
D. Marie Colvin was good at persuading
62. Marie Colvin’s story suggests some of the best qualities of being a journalist are
A. patience and confidence
B. honesty and curiosity
C. flexibility and creativity
D. determination and courage
63. Which of the following is the correct order to describe Marie Colvin’s life?
a. She was doing a story in Syria and got killed.
b. She was admitted to Yale University.
c. She studied in Brazil as an exchange student.

The National Park Service in the United States will mark its one hundredth anniversary in 2016. As it nears its second century, the Park Service plans to increase its educational programs for students and teachers.
The plans include transportation support for one hundred thousand students each year to visit national parks to learn about nature and history. Yellowstone is believed to have been the world’s first national park when it was established in 1872. Other students will get a chance to see parks in faraway places through Skype and other online programs.
The National Park Service also works with partners to provide education. One of its partners is a nonprofit organization called NatureBridge. NatureBridge is celebrating its fortieth anniversary and says one million young people have taken part in its programs. The organization works with students from kindergarten through twelfth grade and uses national parks as its classrooms. It provides field science programs at Yosemite National Park and four other locations in California and the northwestern state of Washington.
Now, NatureBridge is launching an East Coast center with a four-million-dollar grant from Google. The program will begin in April at the Prince William Forest Park in Virginia. Students stay for three to five days in NatureBridge programs. The activities are aimed at developing their science skills. For example, they learn about different soils and study water quality under a microscope. Jason Morris, executive vice president of NatureBridge says when they are not sleeping, eating or in a laboratory, the students spend their time outdoors.
Julia Washburn is associate director of education and interpretation for the National Park Service. She says in a time of budget cuts, the agency has to find ways to still meet its goals. And one of the most important services that the Park Service provides every day is nature interpretation.
