　　四、阅读理解

　　Until last spring,Nia Parker and the other kids in her neighborhood went to school on Bus 59.But as fuel prices rose,the school district needed to find a way to cut its transportation costs.So the school’s busing company redrew its route map,canceling Nia’s bus.Now Nia and her neighbors travel the half mile to school via a “walking school bus”—a group of kids,supervised(监护)by an adult or two,who make the walk together.

　　Many parents are delighted to see their kids walking to school,partly because many did so themselves.According to a 1979 survey,nearly half of school kids walked or biked to school,compared with only 16 percent in 2011.Modern parents have been unwilling to let kids walk to school for fear of traffic,crime or simple bullying,but with organized adult supervision,those concerns have reduced.

　　Schools and busing companies are finding other ways to save money.In rural areas where busing is a must,some schools have even chosen four-day school weeks.Busing companies instruct drivers to cancel extra stops from routes and to turn off the engine while idling(挂空挡).They are also using computer software to determine the most fuel-efficient routes,which aren’t always the shortest ones.

　　There could be disadvantages,however,to the busing cutbacks.If every formerly bused student begins walking to school,it’s an environmental win—but if too many of their parents decide to drive them instead,the overall carbon footprint can grow.Replacing buses with many more parent-driven cars can also increase safety risks.A 2011 report concluded students are 13 times safer on a school bus than in a passenger car,since buses have fewer accidents and withstand(经受住)them better due to their size.And some students complain about the long morning hikes,particularly when the route contains a really big hill.

　　1.According to the passage,how does Nia Parker go to school now?

　　A.By bus. B.By car. C.On foot. D.By bike.

　　2.In regard to walking to school,modern parents seem much concerned with the　. 

　　A.safety of their kids B.kids’ physical strength

　　C.time spent on the way D.changes in the route

　　3.To save money,some schools choose to　. 

　　A.shorten the school week B.take the shortest routes

　　C.stop using school buses D.use fuel-efficient buses

　　4.Busing cutbacks may lead to　. 

　　A.fewer complaints about long morning hikes

　　B.more students taking public transportation

　　C.an increase in carbon dioxide emissions

　　D.a decrease in the safety of school buses

　　一、单句填空

　　1.construction　句意:据说这个国家正在建设中的唯一的核电站将在2016年投入使用。考查固定搭配。under construction在建设中。

　　2.stuck　句意:汽车陷入了雪中,我们不得不步行走完剩下的路程。考查动词短语。get stuck in “陷入”。

　　3.permitted　句意:没有充分的理由学生们不允许离开教室。考查动词短语。permit sb.to do sth.“允许某人做某事”。

　　4.Stand　句意:站在山顶,你可以俯瞰全城。考查“祈使句+and/or+陈述句”句式。此句可转换为:If you stand on the top of the mountain,you’ll get a good bird’s-eye view of the whole city.

　　5.worth　句意:这篇文章很值得一读,但不值得翻译。考查固定用法。be worth doing“值得做……”。

　　6.read　句意:每天把一句谚语大声朗读几遍直到你能记住它。考查特殊句式。根据语境可知此处考查用祈使句来表达命令、建议或者请求。

　　7.it is　句意:——在你方便的时候过来看看我吧。——知道了,奶奶。考查固定搭配。表达“在方便的时候”应该用when it is convenient。

　　8.injured　句意:——杰克怎么了?——他在努力从大火中救一个男孩的时候一条腿受了伤。考查非谓语动词作宾补。分析句子结构可知此处考查have sth.done结构,one of his legs与空格处的动作之间是被动关系。

　　10.learning　句意:人的生命是有限的,但是学习知识是无限的。考查非谓语动词作宾语。空格前的to是介词,后跟v.-ing形式作宾语。

　　二、语法填空

　　[语篇解读]　作者是美籍华人,每天要在两种甚至更多的文化背景中度过,这让他有喜有忧。

　　1.was born　考查动词。这里是过去的事实,而且指的是出生,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。

　　2.variety　考查词形转换。这里指的是不同种类的食物,a variety of意为“各种各样的”,修饰可数名词的复数。

　　3.It　考查代词。it代指已知的情况。

　　4.a　考查冠词。这里是泛指,所以用不定冠词。

　　5.Sharing　考查非谓语动词。Sharing my culture and information about my nationality with others在句中作主语,也就是动名词短语作主语。

　　6.important　考查词形转换。这里需要形容词作表语。

　　7.Though/Although　考查连接词。主句和从句之间是让步关系,所以用引导让步状语从句的常见连接词。

　　8.confusing　考查词形转换。本句的主语是speaking a language at home and speaking another language in school,这件事令人困惑,所以用confusing。

　　9.expressing　考查固定搭配。有时候作者用英语表达的时候会遇到困难。have trouble(in)doing sth是固定用法。

　　10.difficult　考查词形转换。本空前的been说明这里需要一个形容词作表语。
