三、阅读理解
Poet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours(绕行路)in life than by the narrow road toward goals.I like this image.But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.
For years we made the long drive from our home in Seattle to my parents? home in Boise in nine hours.We traveled the way most people do:the fastest,shortest,easiest road,especially when I was alone with four noisy,restless kids who hate confinement(限制)and have strong opinions about everything.
Road trips felt risky,so I would drive fast,stopping only when I had to.We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired.
But then Banner,our lamb was born.He was rejected by his mama days before our planned trip to Boise.I had two choices:leave Banner with my husband,or take him with me.My husband made the decision for me.
That is how I found myself on the road with four kids,a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through.We took the country roads out of necessity.We had to stop every hour,let Banner shake out his legs and feed him.The kids chased him and one another.They?d get back in the car breathless and energized,smelling fresh from the cold air.
We explored side roads,catching grasshoppers in waist-high grass.Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother,or fish leaping out of the water,it was better than the best ride down the freeway.Here was life.And new horizons.
We eventually arrived at my parents? doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories.
I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique.On an empty section of road,everyone started quarreling.I stopped the car,ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead.I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence.
Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight.But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of a journey—and the best part of yourself.

四、短文改错
Dear Mrs.Li,
I am a student of Class Six,Grade One.The day before yesterday,I had borrowed a dictionary from the library.Fortunately,my schoolbag with the dictionary got stealing yesterday in a bus,which made me very angry.The dictionary belongs to the library after all.It is with great regret which I am writing this letter of apology to you.I feel terrible sorry for it.I do hope that what I did doesn?t give you such much trouble.As middle school student,I shouldn?t be responsible for what I did.I will compensate(赔偿) according to the loss and I want to know whether I can buy a new one that is the same as I lost to replace them.
Sincerely,
Wang Xia
一、单句填空
1.ourselves 句意:尽管天气不好,但我们在海边玩得很高兴。考查代词。enjoy oneself是固定短语。
2.Occupying 句意:忙于办公室日常工作的她没时间照顾自己的孩子。考查非谓语动词。
3.to whose 句意:我领着我的一个老朋友参观了这个城市,让她吃惊的是这个城市变化太大了。考查定语从句和surprise的用法。短语to one’s surprise意为“令某人感到吃惊的是”。 在定语从句中“谁的……”用关系词whose。
4.eventually 句意:在休息时间,有很多人排长队买咖啡,最终我们放弃了。考查副词。根据句意,应填副词 eventually“最终”。
5.Surprised 句意:托尼又惊又喜,站起来接受了奖品。考查形容词作状语的用法。
6.to 句意:在过去几年里他在那个偏远地区种树所付出的时间和努力现在被认为是非常有价值的。根据语境可知此处为devote...to...。
7.remembering 句意:在学习的时候,要把精力集中到那些要点上去,否则的话最后你就会什么也记不住。考查非谓语动词作宾语。end up doing sth.结果是……,最后是……。
8.In spite 句意:尽管我们努力去挽救这些始建于明朝时期的房子,但是当地政府还是决定把它们拆掉后新建现代化的大楼。考查介词短语。in spite of虽然、尽管。
9.before 句意:——还要等很长时间我才能得到考试结果吗?——不,今天下午3点前应该能弄好的。考查状语从句。根据语境可知用before引导时间状语从句,意为:在……之前(还有多久)。
10.the;a 句意:——我听说在这次事故中死亡人数多达24人。——是的,这个消息太令我震惊了。考查冠词。第一个空特指上一句话中提到的事情,应该用定冠词the;第二个空a shock一件令人震惊的事。
二、语法填空
[语篇解读] 本文就出国旅行时的注意事项给出了实用的建议。只有做好旅行前的准备工作,才能玩得开心。
1.healthy 考查形容词。此处的stay是系动词,后接形容词作表语。stay healthy意为“保持健康”。
2.travelling 考查非谓语动词。while doing sth.意为“在做某事时”,句中while与现在分词travelling连用,表示“在旅行中”。
3.If/When/While 考查状语从句。在此处用用when/while引导时间状语从句,表示“当你在国外旅行时”或用if引导条件状语从句,表示“如果你在国外旅行时”。
4.easier 考查比较级。much用来修饰比较级,因此此处需要用easy的比较级形式。
5.is stolen 考查被动语态。条件状语从句中缺少谓语,且passport与steal之间是被动关系,故用被动语态。
6.with 考查介词。表示“随身携带”,用介词with。
7.which 考查定语从句。关系代词which引导定语从句修饰表示地点的名词countries,which在从句中充当介词to的宾语,在此处介词提到关系代词前,故不能用that。句意:你要熟知你要去旅行的那些国家的法律和习俗。
8.unnecessary 考查形容词。句意:不要携带太多的钱及没必要的信用卡。故此空填unnecessary。
9.preparations 考查词性转换。make preparations意为“做准备”。误解分析:易受enough的干扰而写成to prepare,此处所填词应该作动词make的宾语,enough作所填词的定语。
10.a 考查冠词。have a good time意为“玩得高兴,过得愉快”。
三、阅读理解
[语篇解读] 本文为夹叙夹议文。题材为社会生活类。作者通过自己亲身的旅行经历,更深刻地理解了绕行道的意义——虽然会比较慢,但是我们能近距离地接近自然,感受到生活更多的乐趣。
1.B 细节理解题。第三段最后一句提到作者坚持走高速公路,到达的时候会比较累。A项与此相反,故排除。C和D项文中没有提及。
2.C 细节理解题。从第五段中的第二、三句得知:作者出于需要要走乡间小路。他们不得不每小时停下来让Banner伸伸腿并且喂它。故选C项(停车去照顾小羊羔)。
3.B 推理判断题。作者通过看到的自然现象得出感慨:走这样的路要比走最好的高速公路要好,这里才是真正的生活,并且增长了见识。故选B项(接近自然可以增加生活的乐趣)。
4.D 细节理解题。第八段中提到,在回去的路上,孩子们在车上争吵,所以作者就命令他们下车到前面等着,也就是要孩子们冷静下来不要争吵。故选D项。
5.A 主旨大意题。作者以诗人William Stafford对绕行道的理解引题,加上自己的亲身经历,进一步理解了绕行道更深刻的意义——它会让你发现旅行中最好的部分,也发现最好的自己。故选A项——绕行道的魅力。
四、短文改错
1.第二句中的had去掉 考查时态。根据时间状语the day before yesterday前天,可知用一般过去时。
2.第三句中的Fortunately改为Unfortunately 考查行文逻辑。根据句意“前天,我从图书馆借了一本词典。不幸的是,在一辆公交车上装有这本词典的书包被盗了……”,可知unfortunately恰当。
3.第三句中的stealing改为stolen 考查非谓语动词。schoolbag与steal之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词。
4.第五句中的which改为that 考查强调句型。此句为强调句型,It is+被强调部分+that+句子的剩余部分,故把which改为that。
5.第六句中的terrible改为terribly 考查副词。修饰形容词sorry要用副词形式,terribly为副词,意为“非常,很”。
6.第七句中的such改为so 考查固定搭配。so+many/much+名词为固定搭配。
7.第八句中的middle前加a 考查冠词。“我”是一名中学生,为单数,所以加a。
8.第八句中的shouldn’t改为should 考查行文逻辑。根据句意“作为一名中学生,我应该对我所做的事情负责。”判断用should。
9.第九句中的and改为or 考查行文逻辑。前后分句在逻辑上为选择关系,所以用or。
10.第九句中的them改为it 考查代词。it指代丢了的词典。
