一、阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2分,满分16分)
A
I am a strong believer that if a child is raised with approval,he learns to love himself and will be successful in his own way.Several weeks ago,I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing up from his chair to go over the math lines.I kept asking him to sit down,telling him that he would concentrate better.He sat but seconds later,as if he didn’t even notice he was doing it,he got up again.I was getting frustrated,but then it hit me.I started noticing his answers were much quicker and more accurate when he stood up.Could he be more absorbed while standing up?
This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe.I was raised to believe that a quiet,calm child was a sure way to success.This child would have the willpower to study hard,get good grades and become someone important in life.
Now those same people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of DNA and personality qualities,and all you can do is loving and accepting them.As parents,throughout their growing years and beyond that,we need to be our kids’ best cheerleaders,guiding them and helping them find their ways.
I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate.Obviously,he is concentrating just in his own way and not mine.We need to learn to accept our kids’ ways of doing things.Some way may have worked for me but it doesn’t mean we need to carry it through generations.There is nothing sweeter than being personal and unique.It makes us free and happy and that’s just the way I want my kids to live their own life.

B
My first day of high school was like any other’s:registering,finding new classmates,meeting new teachers,and seeking new friends.
During lunch,I ran into my first snag(困难) of the day.At the dining hall,as the checkout(付款处) lady asked for my money,I realized that I had forgotten my lunch money.When I told her about it,I heard a voice behind me.I turned around and there stood a teacher telling her he would pay for my lunch.He told me his name,Mr Pete Walker,and said,“If you get a chance,you should take my history class.” I recognized his name,and told him I was in his class later that day.Mr Walker befriended me on the very first day of school at a very crucial time of the day—lunch!
He always told us we should do more than we ever thought.He pushed us to do all things better.He coached many sports,and sponsored many after-class activities.If we were interested in something,he would find a way to expose us to it by inviting speakers,taking us on field trips,or obtaining information for us.
Two years later,my junior year in school was clicking along nicely when one day I was riding my motorcycle and I was hit by a car.I spent six days in hospital and was at home in bed for two weeks before returning to school.Mr Walker stopped by the hospital each day with my work from my teachers.Once I was at home,he would bring my work too.
After high school,I attended the United States Army Airborne School in Fort Benning,Georgia.I knew my parents would be there the day I graduates,but they brought an unexpected guest.They came across Mr Walker at lunch several days before and told him I was about to graduate.His visit,however,was not a surprise to me.

【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了一位热心出租车司机不辞辛苦归还乘客遗忘在他车上的手机的感人故事。
1.C 根据前面的动词left及后面的地点状语“in the cab”,并结合下文出租车司机把手机交给“我”,然后“我”又交还给朋友的内容可判断,这里的leave意为“落下,忘带”,故选C项。luckily“幸运地,幸运的是”;secretly“秘密地”;carelessly“粗心地”;hopefully“有希望地,有前途地”。
2.C 根据前面的“had called others”可知选C项。accept“接受”;appear“出现”;answer“接(电话),应(门),回答”;receive“收到”。
3.A 根据前面的“It was a rainy morning,which for cab drivers in this big city”并结合常识可知,在大城市下雨的早晨,出租车司机是很忙的。
4.A 根据下一句“I told him the street where I lived”可知,出租车司机是要询问能够把手机交给“我”的地点,故选A项。leave有“交托”的意思。
5.B 根据后面的“jumped out of bed”可判断,“我”动作很快,故选B项。
6.A 上文 “ 5 jumped out of bed and got dressed”的目的即是下文中提到的“I could meet him at the street corner”,故选A项。so that“以便,为了(表目的)”;even if“即使(表让步)”;unless“除非(表条件)”;as“随着(表时间),由于(表原因)”。
7.D 根据后面主从句中谓语动词的形式had taken,could have made(虚拟语气)可判断,这是“我”自己假设的情况。故选D项。
8.D 此句指“我”觉得出租车司机在那么忙的时间段跑那么远的路来交还手机,如果有乘客的话,本来可以赚不少钱,故选D项。
9.C 根据后面的原因状语“for having such a kind and beautiful heart”可知选C项。
10.B 结合语境可判断,“我”是为朋友的手机失而复得感到高兴。
11.B 根据前面的“who had recently moved to this country”并结合常识可知,对于一个刚刚来到陌生城市的人来说,手机是多么重要。
12.D 根据上文“我”帮着朋友从出租车司机那里拿到手机及前面的“my friend could thank him”可判断,“我”询问出租车司机的名字是想让朋友日后亲自感谢他。
13.A 根据前面的“He said my thanks were all that he could”及司机空跑那么远的路专程来送手机的热心行为可判断,司机认为“我”的感谢已经足够令他高兴。enjoy表示对客观事物的自然感受,其他三项都是主观意识,不符合语境。
14.B 根据上文可知,朋友的手机被出租车司机交托到了“我”的手里,再结合后面的“tell him how I had received it”就更加明确答案为B项。
15.C 根据与此处并列的名词“the taxi driver”以及上文所出现的人物可判断,此处是指“我”本人。
16.D 根据后面的宾语“the card”可判断选D项。
17.D 上文“I 9 him for having such a kind and beautiful heart”有提示,这里指出租车司机热心助人的优秀品质。
18.C 根据下面的“make people around in the city”可判断,这里泛指其他的人,而不是特指亲戚、朋友或者邻居。
19.B 根据后面与之并列的形容词cheerful可判断选warm“温暖的”。shocked“震惊的”;satisfied“满意的”;confident“自信的”。
20.A 根据上文“And he said that he would pass it on to 18 around him and do what he could to make people around in the city feel 19 and cheerful.”以及后面的“to pay it forward”可判断,朋友要把这种助人的精神传递下去,他已经等不及要实施行动了。can’t wait to do sth.“等不及做某事”。
二、七选五阅读填空(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
Speaking English is not only about using proper grammar.To use English effectively,you need to understand the culture in which it is spoken.Here are a number of important tips to remember when speaking English in the United States.
Conversation tips.
Talk about location. 1 When speaking to strangers,ask them where they are from and then make a connection with that place.For example:“Oh,I have a friend who studied in Los Angeles.He says it’s a beautiful place to live in.” Most Americans will then willingly talk about their experiences living or visiting that particular city or area.
Talk about work. 2 It’s not considered impolite and is a popular topic of discussion between strangers.
Talk about sports.Americans love sports! 3 When speaking about football,most Americans understand “American Football”,not soccer.
4
Many Americans prefer first names.Americans often prefer using first names,even when dealing with people in very different positions.Americans will generally say,“Call me Tom.” and then expect you to remain on a first name basis.
Public behavior.
Always shake hands. 5 This is true for both men and women.Other forms of greeting such as kissing on the cheeks is generally not appreciated.
Smoking is out!Smoking,even in public places,is strongly disapproved of by most Americans in the modern United States.
(2015·河北唐山一中调研)
A.Addressing people.
B.Talking with people.
C.However,they love American sports.
D.Americans love to talk about location.
E.Americans commonly ask “What do you do?”
F.Americans prefer to make friends with foreigners.
G.Americans shake hands when greeting each other.
【文章大意】本文是说明文,介绍了美国人际交流中的一些技巧以及言行举止方面的礼仪。
1.D 根据关键词location可知,D项具有连接上下文的作用。
2.E “What do you do?”是谈论工作的,在此处承接上文“Talk about work.”。
3.C 根据关键词sports可知,C项承上启下,为正确选项。
4.A 根据文章结构,此处应当起到提示下文的作用。空格后面一段谈的是如何称呼别人,故A项符合语境,address此处表示“称呼”。
5.G 根据关键词shake hands可知,G项内容与上文“Always shake hands.”衔接。
三、短文改错(满分10分)
There are lots of experience in our life.The most unforgettable one for me is the speech competition holding last year.I’m interested in English.When my English teacher told me that I had chosen to take part in the speech competition,I devoted me to the preparation.I was determined to win the first prize.I was such nervous when I stood on the stage that I forgot everything.Not until I caught a sight of my teacher did I calm down.Finally,I do a good job.When I heard I got the first prize,my heart was filled in joy and tears rolled down.Through this speech competition,I understand that it is confident that makes people successfully.
1.第1句:experience→experiences。experience作“经历”讲时是可数名词,根据前面修饰语lots of可知需用复数形式。
2.第2句:holding→held。此处是后置定语,hold与被修饰的名词competition是被动关系,故用过去分词。
3.第4句:在chosen前加been。根据句意“老师告诉我说我被选中参加演讲比赛”可知,此处需用过去完成时的被动语态。
4.第4句:me→myself。devote oneself to sth.为固定短语,意为“某人专心于某事”。
5.第6句:such→so。形容词nervous前需用so,构成“so...that...”句式。
6.第7句:删除a。catch sight of表示“看见”,为固定短语。
7.第8句:do→did。本文讲述的是去年发生的事情,主体时态是一般过去时。
8.第9句:in→with。be filled with“充满”,为固定短语。
9.第10句:confident→confidence。此句是强调句,被强调的是主语confidence。confident是形容词,不能充当主语。
10.第10句:successfully→successful/succeed。“make sb.+adj.”或“make sb.do sth.”表示“使某人怎么样”或“使某人做某事”。
