(Text 2)
M: Did you hear of the earthquake in Iran? I just watched the news on TV.
W: Yes, I have just read the newspaper.
(Text 3)
W: How much did you pay for the used books?
M: I paid $5—half of their usual price.
(Text 4)
M: What do you think of the book I lent you? Not good?
W: Oh, it couldn't be better.
(Text 5)
M: What is the material?
W: These gloves are made of goat leather.
M: How many designs do you have?
W: We have three designs in that grade.
(Text 6)
M: Good morning. Anything I can do for you?
W: I'd like to look at some of these cars.
M: We have various cars. Do you want a domestically made car or an imported one?
W: A domestic car is cheaper than an imported one. So I'd prefer a domestic one.
M: OK. Please have a look over there.
W: I think I would like to see some cars with manual transmission.
M: Fine. What about the blue car? It is our latest model.
W: But I'd like an economical one.
M: OK. This white one?
W: It looks good. What price do you set?
M: Only $50,000.
W: Let me think about it. Can I have a test drive?
M: Sure. This way, please.
(Text 7)
M: What kind of insurance do you generally provide?
W: We offer various kinds of insurance, such as All Risks, WPA, FPA and TLO, etc.
M: I have some boxes of teapots to be shipped to Hoog Kong. Shall I take out TLO?
W: If you insure against TLO, the insurance company will pay for total loss only, but not for partial loss. I think this is too risky.
M: Sounds reasonable. Then what do you suggest?
W: I think All Risks will be suitable. The insurance company pays for total or partial loss on land or sea of the insured goods within the period of coverage.
M: What about FPA? I think the cost of FPA is a little bit lower.
W: Yes, it's true. But the FPA coverage is smaller than All Risks. It does not cover partial loss of a particular average.
M: OK. I'll take your advice and take out All Risks.
W: Now please fill out the application form.

M: Mmm, that sounds interesting. And at night?
W: Times Square has plenty of nightlife. There are many good theaters and clubs on Broadway. You can have a real taste of American music and dancing.
M: Great! Then I will need to relax a little next day, I suppose.
W: Well, there's Central Park. It is beautifully designed and has many wonders.
M: Good. What about shops? I do need to buy some souvenirs.

W: It's a pleasure.
(Text 9)
M: Good morning, Mrs. Smith. Take your seat, please.

W: Well, I'm out of work for the time being.
I used to work in a Japanese firm. But two months ago, the boss went back to Japan with his family, so the firm was closed down.
M: Does that mean that you can come here to work at any time on call if we hire you?
W: That's right. By the way, what is the salary?
M: One thousand five hundred dollars a month to start with, and in three months your salary would be increased.
And a year from now, you will have two weeks' holiday.
W: That's great.

My dad is a “Mr. Mom”. He was 50 years old when I was born. I didn't know why he was at home instead of Mom, but I considered myself very lucky because I was the only one of my class who had Dad around.
Dad did so many things for me during my elementary school years. He convinced the school bus driver to pick me up at our house instead of the usual bus stop six blocks away. He always had my lunch ready for me when I came home.
As I got a little older and tried to gain my independence, I wanted to move away from those “childish” signs of his love. But he wouldn't give up. In high school I was no longer able to go home for lunch, so I began taking my own. Dad would get up a little earlier and make it for me.
However, when I left home for college, I missed seeing my dad every day after school. At that time I called him a lot. It didn't matter what he said; I just wanted to hear his voice.

(2017·江苏省泰州市姜堰月考)
Everyone gathered around and Paddy read out loud, slowly, his tone growing sadder and sadder. The little headline said BOXER RECEIVES LIFF SENTENCE.
Frank Cleary, aged 26, professional boxer, was today found guilty of the murder of Albert Gumming, aged 32, laborer, last July. The jury(陪审团) reached its decision after only ten minutes, recommending the most severe punishment to the court. It was, said the Judge, a simple case. Cumming and Cleary had quarreled violently at the Harbour Hotel on July 23rd and police saw Cleary kicking at the head of the unconscious Gumming. When arrested, Cleary was drunk but clearthinking.
Cleary was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour. Asked if he had anything to say, Cleary answered, “Just don't tell my mother.”
“It happened over three years ago,” Paddy said helplessly. No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do. “Just don't tell my mother,” said Fee numbly(麻木地). “And no one did! Oh, God! My poor, poor Frank!”
Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said. “Fee, pack your things. We'll go to see him.”
She_halfrose_before_sinking_back,_her_eyes_in_her_small_white_face_stared_as_if_dead. “I can't go,” she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there. “It would kill him to see me. I know him so well—his pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, it's what he wants. We've got to help him keep his secret. What good will it do him to see us?”
Paddy was still weeping, not for Frank, but for the life which had gone from Fee's face, for the dying in her eyes. Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself. He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children. Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away. But Paddy's love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.
So he said, “Well, Fee, we won't go. But we must make sure he is taken care of. How about if I write to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?”
There was no excitement in the eyes, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks. “Yes, Paddy, do that. Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out. Perhaps it would ease Frank to think for certain that we don't know.”
21.Paddy cried because he thought ________.
A.Frank did kill someone and deserved the punishment
B.Frank should have told Fee what had happened
C.what had happened to Frank was killing Fee
D.Frank had always been a man of bad moral character
22.The underlined sentence “She halfrose before sinking back...” in Paragraph 6 shows that ________.
A.Fee was so heartbroken that she could hardly stand up
B.Fee didn't want to upset Paddy by visiting Frank
C.Fee couldn't leave her family to go to see Frank
D.Fee struggled between wanting to see Frank and respecting his wish
23.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.The jury and the judge agreed on the Boxer's Sentence of Life Imprisonment.
B.The police found Gumming unconscious, heavily struck by Frank.
C.The family didn't find out what had happened to Frank until 3 years later.
D.Frank didn't want his family to know the sentence to him, most probably out of his pride.
24.What is Frank and Paddy's probable relationship with Fee?
A.Frank is Fee's son and Paddy is Fee's brother.
B.Frank is Fee's son and Paddy is Fee's husband.
C.Frank is Fee's brother and Paddy is Fee's lover.
D.Frank is Fee's lover and Paddy is Fee's husband.

I have safely arrived on the boat Pangaea. It's amazing that all of us get the chance to be the captain of it! This is the boat that Mike Horn once sailed to the South Pole.
We stopped in Bluff, and set off to meet the Maoris (毛利人).
I thought at first that the Maoris were wild men living in a tribe (部落) and wearing animal fur. But actually they live just as we do, both with their clothes and food.
We came to a hut (小屋), which was decorated with patterns from long ago. Before entering, we were told to line up, men following women as an old woman stood in front of the hut singing. You can tell that they haven't left all their traditions behind.
The old lady gave us an introduction to the legends of New Zealand, the Maoris and the Pounamu (a local green stone).
Then came the most interesting part, sharing the Maoris' song and dance. Boys learnt how to dance the Haka and for girls it's the Uka. While the Maoris performed the songs, I enjoyed rocking my body and blinking my eyes with the rhythm (节奏), an instinct (本能) that came straight from the heart. Amazing!
What's more surprising was that after the show, an old Maori lady came to tell me that she had two granddaughters whose faces looked just like mine!
Yes, the first Maoris sailed to New Zealand from Asia, which might indicate a close relationship with Chinese people! No wonder I was so moved by the dances and songs the Maoris have! It is so heartwarming to touch a culture that is so far away, but which you can relate to so closely.
Li Jun won a onceinalifetime opportunity after seeing a piece of short world news in 21st Century Teens last October. In January, she joined a 10day training camp to the Alps in Switzerland, set up by South African explorer Mike Horn. Now she is on a 15day trip to the Southern Island of New Zealand with eight teenagers from around the world.
25.The best title for the passage is ________.
A. A Pleasant Journey
B. The Magical South Pole
C. Meeting the Maoris
D. A Brave Explorer
26.We can infer that Bluff belongs to ________.
A. the South Pole B. New Zealand
C. Asia D. Switzerland
27.The “Haka” and “Uka” in Paragraph 6 refer to ________.
A. the Maoris' languages
B. names of different songs
C. two dances
D. ways to make a living
28.We can infer from the passage that ________.
A. Mike Horn once visited the Maoris
B. the Maoris are all Chinese
C. Maori women's social position is higher than men
D. the Maoris have their root in Asia
答案
25.C 标题归纳题。根据文章第一段和全文可知,作者乘 Pangaea 第一次接触毛利人,全文介绍其见闻。
26.B 推理判断题。根据第二段和第五段可知,作者到达的地方属于新西兰的岛屿。
27.C 词义猜测题。根据第六段第一句中 sharing the Maoris' song and dance 可知这里两个词分别指男子和女子所学班的舞蹈名称。
28.D 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的 Yes, the first Maoris sailed to New Zealand from Asia, which might indicate a close relationship with Chinese people! 可知答案。

Nuclear power's danger to health, safety, and even life itself can be described in one word: radiation.
Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected by human senses. It can't be seen or heard or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all round us but we can't detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. Similarly, we can't sense radioactivity without a radiation detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things.
At very high levels radiation can kill an animal or a human being outright by killing masses of cells in important organs. But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no level or radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright, your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproduce themselves in an unusual way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.
This is another reason for some of the mystery: about nuclear radiation, serious damage can be done without the knowledge of the person at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak or easy to get serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.
Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth.
29.According to the passage, the danger of nuclear power lies in ________.
A.nuclear story
B.radiation detection
C.radiation level
D.nuclear radiation
30.What does the underlined word “outright” mean?
A.instantly
B.fiercely
C.widely
D.correctly
31.Which of the following statement is NOT true based on the article?
A.Similar to radio wave, nuclear radiation can never be detected.
B.Radiation is dangerous since it does harm at any level.
C.In some cases it's less harmful to have your cells killed rather than damaged by radiation.
D.Awareness of radiation damage needs to be aroused among people.
32.Which of the following would be the best title of the article?
A.Nuclear Weapons Lead to Numerous Deaths
B.Radiation, Detectable or Undetectable?
C.Radiation, A Mysterious Killer
D.New Findings of Nuclear Power
答案与解析
29.D 细节理解题。从第一段Nuclear power's danger to health, safety, and even life itself can be described in one word: radiation. 可知选D项。
30.A 词义猜测题。从画线词后的by killing masses of cells in important organs. 可知outright 的含义为instantly(立刻)。
31.A 细节理解题。从第二段最后两句Similarly, we can't sense radioactivity without a radiation detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things. 可知A项错误。
32.C 标题归纳题。从全文内容归纳可知C项为最佳标题。

(2017·江西南昌一中月考)
On Easter Sunday 1967, Jim Thompson was on vacation in Malaysia. While staying in the Cameron Highlands, he stepped out for a walk alone through the jungle. And that was the last anyone ever saw him. It was as though he had disappeared into thin air. To this day, no clues have been found as to what happened to this wealthy American businessman who is credited with singlehandedly reviving(使复兴) the Thai silk industry.
Thompson was born in the United States in 1906. He studied architecture and worked for several years before joining the army during World War Ⅱ. He was sent to Thailand, where he worked with a United States intelligence agency. It was this first taste of life in the Far East that changed Thompson's life. When the war ended, he decided to leave the army and move to Thailand permanently.
While traveling around Thailand, Thompson came across what he considered extremely beautiful samples of handwoven Thai silk. At that time, weaving silk by hand was almost an extinct art in Thailand. Very few people were interested in doing it, and even those weavers still at work only did it as a supplement(补充) to their regular income from other work. However, Thompson was intrigued by the silk he found and began seeking out weavers and their samples.
Eventually, his search led Thompson to Ban Krua, a very poor district in Bangkok. In Ban Krua, Thompson found a whole community of weavers living very close to each other. Although Thailand is generally a Buddhist country, these weavers were Muslim—a fact that helps explain why they all stayed together within their tight community to support one another. Thompson was so impressed with the material being woven in this village that he took samples to show fashion magazines in New York. These magazine writers were amazed with the quality of this silk and wanted more. Thompson returned to Ban Krua with orders for more silk and persuaded the weavers to supply his new company, which soon made Thompson and a few of the Ban Krua weavers very wealthy.
As his business continued to grow, Thompson began to explore other interests. He began collecting works of art and building his own house. But Thompson did not just build an ordinary house. He wanted a unique Thai house. He searched the country for authentic Thai houses representing the best examples of old Thailand. Six of the houses he found were then brought together and reassembled into a single home, which Thompson finally moved into in 1959. Today, the house is both a historical treasure and an attraction for Thai people and visitors to Bangkok.
As for Thompson's disappearance, although no hard evidence has been found, there are many theories explaining Thompson's fate. Some say he was captured and killed by a political group. Others think he was murdered by gangsters(匪徒) or business competitors. And there is one theory that says he met a local woman and stayed to live in the jungle with her. Perhaps he simply died in the jungle from falling into a hidden cave or hole, or being eaten by a tiger.If his body was eaten by wild animals, it would explain why no trace of the Thai Silk King has ever been found.
33.When did Thompson first go to Thailand?
A.As a child.
B.As an adult.
C.As a college student.
D.As an old man.
34.What did Thompson find in Ban Krua?
A.A factory that made Thai silk.
B.Beautiful clothes made of Thai Silk.
C.A large, exquisite house.
D.People to help his business.
35.Which statement about Thompson's house is true?
A.It has a single big room inside it.
B.Thompson never actually lived in it.
C.It looks ordinary from the outside.
D.It was made from several old houses.
答案与解析
33.B 细节理解题。从第二段第二、三句He studied architecture and worked for several years before joining the army during World War Ⅱ. He was sent to Thailand,...可知B项正确。
34.D 细节理解题。从第四段最后一句Thompson returned to Ban Krua with orders for more silk and persuaded the weavers to supply his new company, which soon made Thompson and a few of the Ban Krua weavers very wealthy. 可知选D项。
35.D 细节理解题。从第五段中He searched the country for authentic Thai houses representing the best examples of old Thailand. Six of the houses he found were then brought together and reassembled into a single home, which Thompson finally moved into in 1959.可知D项正确。

64.popularity 名词作宾语。
65.relief 名词作表语。
66.privately 修饰实义动词用副词。
67.built in recent years 与现在完成时连用,现在完成时态的被动语态为:have/has been+过去分词。
