　　(2016·北京模拟)

　　Once upon a time, on his way to the Himalayas, was a saint(圣徒). He came across a shallow river he had to cross. Just when he was about to wet his feet, he saw a scorpion(蝎子)helplessly trying to come out of the river. It was almost touching the bank but not enough to gain hold of the ground. The saint saw scorpion’s struggle and decided to save it.

　　He picked up the scorpion in his right hand with the intention to place it on the dry surface. No sooner did he do that than the scorpion stung and rushed off the hand, landing in the water again. It struggled to come out of water again. The saint’s body was in pain but his mind, calm.

　　Seeing that the scorpion could lose its life, the saint used left hand this time to lift the scorpion out of water. However, it panicked and stung again. Once again, it sped off the hand and fell in water. He was left with both hands filled with pain. He was not the one to give up either.

　　He tried again. This time, he cupped his hands together and lifted the scorpion in one swift movement. Before it could react, he safely dropped it on the land. The scorpion disappeared into the pebbles that lay near the bank. He felt happy, for he succeeded in carrying out his rescue, for saving another life. It was worth the pain he thought.

　　At a distance, a man, surprised and shocked, had watched the whole process. He approached the saint and said, “Can I ask you a question please? ”

　　“Yes, you may. ”

　　“First of all, there was no need to save a scorpion. It does no good to anybody. Secondly, if you must save him, you could have simply tried once. I’m surprised that even after it stung you, you still went on. Why? ”

　　“Oh! That’s pretty simple, ”he replied softly rubbing his stung hands against each other. “This was a scorpion, a creature really low on the food chain, a creature whose nature is to sting(蜇), to panic, to harm. It is supposed to be weak. However, I am supposed to be a saint, a person whose job is to love everybody, to offer love. I am supposed to be the strong one, the one higher up on the food chain. With my principles, my philosophy(人生观)and practice, I am supposed to save other creatures. Right? ”

　　The man nodded. (395W)

　　(原创)A woman who lived in a coma(昏迷)for 42 years, unendingly cared for by her family, died Wednesday in her home in Miami Gardens, Fla.

　　Edwarda O’Bara was a 17-year-old high school student in 1970 when she became sick from her diabetes(糖尿病)medication and slipped into a diabetic coma.

　　Just before she lost consciousness, Edwarda asked her mother, Kaye O’Bara, to never leave her side, and her family never did.

　　Edwarda’s father, Joe O’Bara, and Kaye took care of their daughter—reading to her, playing her music, making sure she was turned every two hours, bathed, given insulin(胰岛素)and given nourishment through a feeding tube—until their deaths in 1976 and 2008, respectively.

　　After that, Edwarda’s sister Colleen O’Bara took over.

　　Her family’s unending care for her became a story told across the world.

　　And visitors from across the world traveled to the Miami Gardens every year, sometimes appearing at the doorstep on random days, other times for Edwarda’s yearly birthday party, a cheerful affair with decorations, balloons and cake.

　　Through it all, Edwarda remained in a coma.

　　But to her family and followers she remained alive.

　　Colleen O’Bara described her as“the best sister in the whole wide world”.

　　“She taught me so much, especially after she was in the coma, ”Colleen O’Bara said. “She taught me so much about unconditional love that I couldn’t say I had it before.

　　She taught me about patience that I didn’t have before.

　　I learned so much from taking care of my sister.

　　It’s like I grew up overnight. ”

　　In an announcement of Edwarda’s death posted Thursday on a website, Colleen O’Bara wrote, “Yesterday while taking care of Edwarda I noticed her looking directly at me and gave me the biggest smile I had ever seen.

　　She then closed her eyes and joined my Mom in Heaven. ”(310W)

　　5. How old was Edwarda O’Bara when she died?

　　A. 56.

　　B. 57.

　　C. 58.

　　D. 59.

　　6. Edwarda’s parents did everything below to take care of her except　.

　　A. reading to her

　　B. playing her music

　　C. taking a walk with her

　　D. turning her every two hours

　　7. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

　　A. Edwarda’s mother looked after her for 38 years in her coma.

　　B. Edwarda’s brother took over after her parents died.

　　C. Edwarda described her sister as the best one in the world.

　　D. Edwarda learned a lot from her sister.

　　8. What’s the main idea of the passage?

　　A. Edwarda’s family’s selfless care for her became a story told across the world.

　　B. Edwarda became sick from her diabetes medication and slipped into a diabetic coma.

　　C. Edwarda died after 42 years of coma and her family kept their promise to take good care of her.

　　D. Edwarda smiled when she died.

　　【语篇随练】

　　根据阅读理解A翻译句子

　　1. Just when he was about to wet his feet, he saw a scorpion helplessly trying to come out of the river.

　　【译】2. This was a scorpion, a creature really low on the food chain, a creature whose nature is to sting, to panic, to harm.

　　【译】Ⅰ. 1. 【解析】选D。考查非谓语动词和with复合结构。句意: 被警告晚上在街上有危险, 她不得不由一位朋友陪着回家。主语she与warn之间是被动关系, 应用过去分词; 在“with +宾语+宾语补足语”结构中, friend与作宾语补足语的动词accompany之间是主动关系, 用现在分词。故答案选D。

　　【变式备选】

　　Having been warned of danger in the street at night, she had to go home, 　by a friend of hers.

　　A. having accompanied　B. accompanied

　　C. accompanying

　　D. being accompanied

　　【解析】选B。考查非谓语动词。本题考查的是分词作伴随状语, 主语she与动词accompany之间为动宾关系, 所以要用过去分词, 相当于who was accompanied by a friend of hers。

　　2. 【解析】选C。句意: 你进来时我们正要给你打电话。be on the point of doing sth. 正要做某事, 即将做某事。when在此处是并列连词, 相当于and at this/that time。

　　【变式备选】

　　We were just　call you up　you came in.

　　A. about to; when B. on the point of; while

　　C. on the point of; when

　　D. about to; as

　　【解析】选A。考查句型。固定表达be about to do sth. when. . . 表示“正要做某事这时突然……”。

　　3. 【解析】选B。考查动词辨析。句意: 一个人所处的环境靠个人也许无力改变, 但至少可以选择如何适应环境。adapt oneself to使自己适应, 符合句意。match(使)相配, (使)相称; regulate调节, 控制; coordinate使协调, 都与oneself to不搭配。

　　4. 【解析】选D。考查短语辨析。句意: 这座岛屿位于福建沿海, 除了一个中国地标和树木之外一片荒芜。rather than而不是; instead of代替, 而不是; as well as也, 和; apart from除……之外, 远离, 且不说。

　　【知识拓展】as well as用法三原则

　　(1)as well as可以用来连接两个相同的成分, 如名词、代词、形容词、动词、介词, 通常不位于句首。此时, as well as连接的虽然是两个并列成分, 但强调的重点在前面, 不在后面, 意思为“不但……而且……”“既……又……”“除了……之外, 还有……”。翻译时要先译后面, 再译前面。例如:

　　①Living things need air and sunlight as well as water.

　　生物不仅需要水, 还需要空气和阳光。(连接名词)

　　②She helped Tom as well as I. =She and I helped Tom.

　　我帮了汤姆的忙, 她也帮了汤姆的忙。(连接主格代词)

　　③She helped Tom as well as me.

　　=She helped Tom and me.

　　她帮了我的忙, 也帮了汤姆的忙。(连接宾格代词)

　　④She continued her own work as well as helped me.

　　她除了帮助我, 还继续自己的工作。(连接动词)

　　⑤He calculates the weight of the material before, as well as after experiments.

　　他不但在实验后, 还在实验前计算材料的重量。(连接介词短语)

　　⑥The child is lively as well as healthy.

　　这孩子既健康又活泼。(连接形容词)

　　(2)用作介词

　　此时, as well as相当于besides, in addition to, 意思为“除……之外”, 后面通常接名词或动词, 尤其是位于句首时。

　　As well as/Besides/In addition to eating five-course meals, they drank seven bottles of wine.

　　除了五道菜外, 他们还喝了七瓶酒。

　　(3)well用于as. . . as的结构中

　　这种as well as结构表示比较, 引导一个比较状语从句, 意为“和……一样好”。例如:

　　He can operate the machine as well as I do.

　　他操纵这台机器和我一样熟练。

　　5. 【解析】选C。考查非谓语动词。句意: 由于工作受到表扬, 他激动得无法入睡。本句的主语he与动词praise之间为动宾关系, 所以要用过去分词作状语, 相当于原因状语从句Because he was praised. . . 。故答案为C。

　　6. 【解析】选A。考查定语从句。句意: 我确实非常爱我妈妈, 但是情况发展到这样一种程度: 她甚至不想让我看到她以前的样子。当先行词是point, case, situation等时, 定语从句多用where引导, where在从句中作状语。

　　【变式备选】

　　There is never a point in your life　you can truly say, “I have mastered English completely. ”

　　A. where B. when

　　C. that

　　D. which

　　【解析】选B。句意: 一生中永远没有一个时候你可以真正地说: “我已经彻底掌握了英语。”本句中point的意思是“(某一)时刻”而不是表示“(某一)地点或程度”, 故答案为B。

　　7. 【解析】选C。考查非谓语动词。句意: 这个到2015年竣工的工程将大大扩展这个城市的电话网络。动词不定式的被动形式表示“将要被……”, 作project的定语。

　　【变式备选】

　　The project　by the end of 2011 greatly expanded the city’s telephone network.

　　A. accomplished

　　B. being accomplished

　　C. to be accomplished

　　D. having accomplished

　　【解析】选A。根据时间状语by the end of 2011可知, 此工程已经完工, 名词project与动词accomplish之间为动宾关系, 所以要用过去分词作后置定语。分词的完成时形式不可作后置定语, 只能作状语。

　　8. 【解析】选C。考查动词短语辨析。句意: ——我们讨论一下昨晚提出的问题, 好吗? ——没必要那么急。我正要去参加一个会议。head for表示“朝着……前进, 走去”; look for寻找; join in参加(某项活动); take part in参加(活动); 但后两个短语不能接meeting, conference等词。

　　9. 【解析】选A。考查动词辨析。句意: 如果你帮我们的忙, 工作做起来会更快。assist相当于help, 符合语境。consult商议, 请教; conduct控制, 管理; question询问, 盘问, 都不符合语境。

　　10. 【解析】选B。考查动词短语辨析。句意: 他们能让你感到被人理解, 他们会鼓励你追逐你的目标, 追求你的理想。go after追逐, 追求, 符合语境。go through检查, 完成; go against违背, 对……不利; go ahead开始, 前进, 都不符合句意。

　　11. 【解析】选D。考查形容词辨析。句意: 由地方政府公布的数据表明, 这个地区仍然缺乏教学资源。unique独特的; essential基本的, 必要的; natural自然的; inadequate不足的。根据句意可知答案选D。

　　12. 【解析】选C。考查动词辨析。句意: 他主张锻炼和好的饮食习惯是健康生活的关键要素。assume承担, 假定, 采取; adopt采用, 采纳, 收养; advocate提倡, 主张, 支持; convince说服, 使确信, 使信服。根据句意可知答案选C。

　　【变式备选】

　　Some people advocated that the government　stricter measures over the second mortgage on the house.

　　A. took B. would take

　　C. take

　　D. takes

　　【解析】选C。advocate表示“提倡, 主张”时, 后面的宾语从句要用虚拟语气, 即谓语部分要用(should)do形式。故答案为C。

　　13. 【解析】选B。考查非谓语动词和谓语动词。句意: 一听到这个消息, 女孩就立刻冲了出去, 行李就留在地板上, 消失在黑暗中。第一个空表示女孩这么做造成的结果, 所以要用现在分词作结果状语, 第二空作宾语the luggage的补足语, lie在这里表示“位于”, 与luggage之间为主动关系, 构成leave sth.

　　doing结构, 第三空是并列谓语, 和前面的动词短语rushed out为并列关系, 故答案为B。

　　14. 【解析】选C。考查时态。句意: 到科学家们弄清楚暗物质的基本结构时, 我肯定人类将已经在科学上取得了惊人的进步。by表示“到……为止”, 引导时间状语从句时, 主句的谓语用完成时态; 又因为时间状语从句中用一般现在时表将来, 故答案选C。

　　15. 【解析】选B。考查名词辨析。句意: 对你们的帮助, 我们趁这个机会向你们表示衷心的感谢。appreciation在本句中表示“感激; 感谢”。enjoyment享乐, 欣赏; entertainment娱乐; 款待; application应用, 申请。
