.阅读理解
English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet.One in every seven human beings can speak it.More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English.Of all languages,English has the largest vocabulary—perhaps as many as two million words.
However,let’s face it:English is a crazy language.There is no egg in an eggplant,neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger.Sweetmeats are candy,while sweetbreads,which aren’t sweet,are meat.
We take English for granted.But when we explore its paradoxes,we find that quicksand can work slowly,boxing rings are square,and public bathrooms have no baths in them.
And why is it that a writer writes,but fingers don’t fing,grocers don’t groce,and hammers don’t ham?If the plural of tooth is teeth,shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth?One goose,two geese—so one moose,two meese?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same,while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?How can overlook and oversee be opposites,while quite a lot and quite a few are alike?How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?
English was invented by people,not computers,and it reflects the creativity of human beings.That’s why,when stars are out,they are visible;but when the lights are out,they are invisible.And why,when I wind up my watch,I start it;but when I wind up this essay,I end it.

Ⅱ.完形填空
I arrived at the classroom,ready to share my knowledge and experience with 75 students who would be my English Literature class.Having taught in the US for 17 years,I had no 1 about my ability to hold their attention and to 2 on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue.
I was shocked when the monitor shouted,“ 3 !”and the entire class rose as I entered the room,and I was somewhat 4 over how to get them to sit down again,but once that awkwardness was over,I quickly 5 my calmness and began what I thought was a fact-packed lecture,sure to gain their respect—perhaps 6 their admiration.I went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a(n) 7 of achievements.
My students 8 diaries.However,as I read them,the rosy glow was gradually 9 by a strong sense of sadness.The first diary said,“Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. 10 her next lecture will be better.”Greatly surprised,I read diary after diary,each expressing a 11 subject.“Didn’t I teach them anything?I described the entire philosophical framework of Western thought and laid the historical 12 for all the works we’ll study in class,”I complained.“How 13 they say I didn’t teach them anything?”
It was a long term,and it 14 became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as 15 of my students.I thought a teacher’s job was to raise 16 questions and provide enough background so that students could 17 their own conclusions.My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide 18 information as directly and clearly as possible.What a difference!
19 ,I also learned a lot,and my experience with my Chinese students has made me a 20 American teacher,knowing how to teach in a different culture.
【语篇导读】作者通过授课的亲身经历,讲述并悟出了中西方教育文化的不同,这使她能更好地在不同文化中授课,成为一名更好的老师。
1.A.trouble B.ideaC.experienceD.doubt
答案:D
解析:由前面的“Having taught in the US for 17 years”可知,此处的语境是:“我”对“我”的能力没有疑问。no doubt表示“毫无疑问”。故选D项。
2.A.impress B.put C.leave D.fix
答案:A
解析:impress on sb.sth.表示“使某人牢记某事”。故选A项。
3.A.Attention B.Look out C.At ease D.Stand up
答案:D
解析:由后面的“and the entire class rose”以及“over how to get them to sit down again”可知,上课班长喊“起立”。故选D项。
4.A.serious B.sure C.curious D.puzzled
答案:D
解析:从下文“I was somewhat over how to get them to sit down again,but once that awkwardness was over”可知,当时“我”“很困惑”,不知道怎样让他们坐下。故选D项。
5.A.found B.returned C.regained D.followed
答案:C
解析:根据上文“I had no about my ability to hold their attention”可知,作者很自信,后来班长喊“起立”,让她有点不知所措,但是这种尴尬很快结束了,她又重新镇定下来。此处要用regain“重新获得”。故选C项。
6.A.more B.even C.yet D.still
答案:B
解析:根据语境“sure to gain their respect—perhaps their admiration”可知,此处表示递进关系,要用even。故选B项。
7.A.thought B.sense C.feeling D.idea
答案:B
解析:从下文的“a strong sense of sadness”可知,此处要用sense,a sense of是固定搭配,表示“一种……感”。故选B项。
8.A.wrote B.hid C.kept D.read
答案:C
解析:写日记用keep a diary/diaries。write表示“写”,但不合英语习惯。故选C项。
9.A.replaced B.taken C.caught D.moved
答案:A
解析:从上文“I went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a(n) of achievements.”和下文的“the rosy glow was gradually by a strong sense of sadness”可知,用replace(代替)。故选A项。
10.A.Naturally B.Perhaps C.Fortunately D.Reasonably
答案:B
解析:根据“The first diary said,‘Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. her next lecture will be better.’”可知,这里表示推测,所以此处要用perhaps,表示“或许,也许”。故选B项。
11.A.similar B.same C.different D.usual
答案:A
解析:根据“Greatly surprised,I read diary after diary,each expressing a subject.”可知,学生们的日记表达了“相似的”内容,即“我”的第一堂课没有教给他们什么东西,此处要用similar。故选A项。
12.A.happenings B.characters C.development D.background
答案:D
解析:从下文的“a teacher’s job was to raise questions and provide enough background so that students could their own conclusions ”可知,此处要用background。故选D项。
13.A.may B.should C.will D.must
答案:B
解析:should作为情态动词,可以用来表示意外、惊喜或者对说话人看来是不可思议的(事情)。尤其在以why,who,how等开头的疑问句或某些感叹句中常常译为“竟会”“居然”。故选B项。
14.A.immediately B.certainly C.simply D.gradually
答案:D
解析:根据语境“It was a long term,and it became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as of my students.”可推知,“我”“逐渐”了解到“我”的教育观念和“我”的学生们的不同。故选D项。
15.A.that B.what C.those D.ones
答案:C
解析:those代指上文中的ideas。that代指上文中的可数名词单数或不可数名词;what表示“什么”;ones表示泛指。这三项明显不对。故选C项。
16.A.difficult B.interesting C.ordinary D.unusual
答案:B
解析:“我”认为教师的工作是给学生提出“有趣的”问题,给学生提供足够的背景知识,以便学生自己得到结论。所以此处要用interesting。故选B项。
17.A.draw B.get C.decide D.give
答案:A
解析:draw a conclusion表示“得出结论”。故选A项。
18.A.strange B.standard C.exact D.serious
答案:C
解析:根据下文的“provide information as directly and clearly as possible”可知,学生认为老师的工作就是给学生尽可能直接清晰地提供“准确的”信息。此处要用exact“确切的,准确的”。故选C项。
19.A.Therefore B.However C.Besides D.Though
答案:B
解析:根据语境“我”了解到了中西教育观念的不同,但是同时“我”也学会了很多,前后为转折关系。注意:though放句首当连词用时,后不接逗号。故选B项。
20.A.better B.happy C.normal D.good
答案:A
解析:“我”了解了中西教育文化的差异,知道了怎样在不同文化中教书,这使得“我”成了一名更好的老师。故选A项。

答案与解析:
【语篇导读】Allyson Ahlstrom虽然只有14岁,但是她已经帮助了很多生活拮据的女性。
1.an 解析:考查冠词。这里非特指,只是说成立了一个机构,故填不定冠词“an”。
2.called 解析:考查非谓语动词。这本书叫Generation Change,故填call的过去分词做后置定语。
3.teenagers 解析:考查名词。这里缺少一个名词做主语,且为复数形式,故填“teenagers”。
4.While 解析:考查连词。这里需填“While”引导时间状语从句。
5.thinking 解析:考查非谓语动词。这里after作为介词,后面需填动词-ing形式,故填“thinking”。
6.happily 解析:考查副词。reacted是动词,需用副词修饰。
7.were given 解析:考查时态和语态。they是give这个动作的承受者,因为这个动作发生在过去,故需用一般过去时的被动语态。
8.since 解析:考查介词。前面使用的是现在完成时,故这里需填“since”,表示从那以后。
9.wants 解析:考查主谓一致。主语是she,又因为这里需用一般现在时,故填want的第三人称单数形式。
10.helpful 解析:考查形容词。形容词做表语,表示“有帮助的”,故填“helpful”。
