(2016·济南市高三调研)A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut. As the barber began to work, they started chatting. They talked __1__ so many things and various subjects. When they __2__ (final) touched on the subject of God, the barber said:“I don't believe that God exists.”
“Why do you say that?” asked the customer.
“Well, you just have to go out in __3__ street to prove that. Tell me, if God existed, would there be so many sick people? Would there be
abandoned children? If God existed, there __4__ be neither suffering nor pain. I can't imagine __5__ (love) a God who would allow all of these things to happen.”
The customer thought for a moment, but didn't respond because he didn't want to start an __6__ (argue). After everything __7__(do) and just after he left the barber's, he saw a man in the street with long dirty hair. The customer entered the barber's again and said:“You know what?__8__ do not exist.”
“How can you say that?” asked the surprised barber.“I am here, and I am a barber. And I just __9__ (work) on you!”
“No!” the customer said.“Barbers don't exist because __10__ they did, there would be no people with long dirty hair, like that man outside.”
语篇解读:本文是一个小故事。讲述的是一位男士到理发店去理发,和理发师聊起了上帝是否存在的话题。
1.about talk about sth.表示“讨论某事”。
2.finally 修饰动词touched应用final的副词形式。
3.the in the street表示“在街上”。
4.would/should/could/might 考查情态动词。本句是if引导的虚拟语气,与现在的事实相反,从句用一般过去时,主句应用would/could/might/should+动词原形。
5.loving imagine doing sth.“想象做某事”。
6.argument 根据前面的不定冠词an可知,这儿需要用名词形式。
7.was done 由后面的left可知,应用一般过去时;又因do 和everything是动宾关系,故应用被动语态。
8.Barbers 根据下文理发师说的话可知,这里是在说“理发师是不存在的”。
9.worked “我”刚刚给你理了头。此处是描述过去发生的事,故应用一般过去时。
10.if 如果理发师存在的话,就不会出现头发又长又脏的人了。
Ⅱ.短文改错
(2016·昆明质量检测二)I was asked to be a student teacher last week. My China teacher required me to give a lesson in my class. It was a first time that I had stood before class. I was thankful for her, because I had dreamed to be a teacher all the time. Considered that the class wouldn't listen to me, I felt so nervous that I could fall asleep the night before. On the morning to give the lesson, I found it heavy to move my foot. At first, I can hardly speak fluently. Otherwise, I found myself much more relaxed gradually, because my classmates looked at me encouragingly. Finally, I finished the lesson smooth. I will remember my this experience forever.
答案:第二句:China→Chinese
第三句:a→the
第四句:for→to
第五句:Considered→Considering; could→couldn't或could后加not
第六句:foot→feet
第七句:can→could
第八句:Otherwise→However
第九句:smooth→smoothly
第十句:去掉my或this

Dear Sir/Madam,
I'm Li Hua, a senior high school student from China and I'll graduate in June. I have been dreaming of being a student in Cambridge University, and I plan to major in Education.
I'm wondering what the admission requirements for international applicants are.I'll have learned English for six years upon graduation, but I need to know what kinds of tests of the English language are required for applicants. I scored well in TOEFL one year ago, but is that enough?
What's more, would you please tell me what materials I should
submit? Besides, when do you begin to accept applications and what is the deadline for them?
Looking forward to your reply!
Yours sincerely,

(2016·南宁第二次适应性考试)The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and the environment. These findings come from a new report in the journal Nature.
David Tilman, a professor of ecology at the University of Minnesota, America, examined information from 100 countries to identify what people ate and how a diet affected health. He noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. He found that as nations industrialized (工业化), population increased and earnings rose, more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet.
The Western diet is high in sugar, fat, oil and meat. By eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker. David Tilman says overweight people are at greater risk of noninfectious diseases like diabetes (糖尿病) and heart disease.
Unfortunately when people become industrialized, if they adopt this Western diet, they are going to have these health problems, especially in developing countries in Asia. China is an example where the number of diabetes cases has been jumping from less than one percent to 10 percent of the population as they began to industrialize over a 20year period. And that is happening all across the world, in Mexico, in Nigeria and so on.
And, a diet bad for human beings is also bad for the environment. As the world's population grows, more forests and tropical (热带的) areas will become farmlands for crops or grasslands for cattle. We are likely to have more greenhouse gas in the future from agriculture than that coming out of all forms of transportation right now.
Mr. Tilman calls the link between the diet, the environment and human health, “a trilemma” — a problem offering a difficult choice. He says one possible solution is leaving the Western diet behind.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。《自然》杂志上一篇新的报告表示,西方饮食对人的健康和环境有不良影响,人们应警惕西方饮食带来的危害。
1.According to the passage, more greenhouse gas might be given off in the future from ________.
A.transportation
B.developing countries
C.agriculture
D.developed countries
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的最后一句可知,未来更多的温室气体排放可能来自于农业,故选择C项。
2.David Tilman believes that ________.
A.the diet, the environment and human health are closely connected
B.the Western diet is the only choice as the nation industrializes
C.people in tropical areas are more likely to have heart disease
D.traditional diets are more balanced than the Western diet
解析:选A 推理判断题。根据最后一段的第一句可知,Tilman先生把日常饮食、环境和人的健康之间的联系称为三难困境。由此可知,它们三个是紧密相关的,故选择A项。
3.We can infer from the passage that ________.
A.Nigeria has the largest number of diabetes cases
B.overweight people are at higher risk of infectious diseases
C.the examined information comes from developing countries
D.industrialization contributes to the spread of the Western diet
解析:选D 推理判断题。根据第二段的最后一句可推知,工业化、人口增长和收入增加造成了西方饮食的传播,故D项正确。
4.The main purpose of the passage is to
________.
A.call on us to protect the environment
B.warn us of the danger of the Western diet
C.remind us of the importance of health
D.advise us to have a balanced diet
解析:选B 写作意图题。综合全文,尤其是根据文章最后一段的最后一句可知,西方饮食有害健康,不利于环境,故作者是想通过该文让人们警惕西方饮食带来的危害。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
(2016·资阳市第三次诊断)Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. __1__
Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.
First of all, good talkers ask questions. __2__ One wellknown businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It's a common question, but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matters — sometimes to really personal questions. __3__
Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn't. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively.
__4__ If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he's really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it's time for you to change the subject.
Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If you're saying goodbye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “I've really enjoyed meeting you.” __5__ Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they've known you half their life.
A.Real listening at least means some things.
B.You can become a popular person.
C.Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question.
D.And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.
E.If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret.
F.It's polite to listen to others with a smile.
G.These people have something in common.
答案:1~5 GCDAE
