　　I hardly remember my grandmother. She used to holding me on her knees and sing old songs. I was only four when she passes away. She is just a distant memory for me now.

　　I remember my grandfather very much. He was tall, with broad shoulder and a beard that turned from black toward gray over the years. He had a deep voice, which set himself apart from others in our small town, he was strong and powerful. In a fact, he even scared my classmates away during they came over to play or do homework with me. However, he was the gentlest man I have never known.

　　【参考答案】6.

　　1.holding----hold

　　此处used to意为：过去常常，to是不定式符号，故用动词原形。

　　2.passes----passed

　　根据前面was可知为一般过去时态。

　　3.much----well/ clearly

　　根据句意可知，我很清楚记得我的爷爷。此处very much是多的意思，不合题意。

　　4.shoulder----shoulders

　　根据常理，人有两个肩膀，故用复数。

　　5.toward----to/ into

　　根据句意，这里指：黑胡子变成白胡子。所以用短语turn to或turn into。

　　6.himself----him

　　句意：他的深沉的声音把他和别人区别开来。故用him。

　　7.he前加and

　　根据句中结构可知He had a deep voice…和he was strong and powerful是并列关系，故用and连接。

　　8.去掉fact前a

　　固定短语：in fact。

　　9.during----when

　　during为介词，后不能接句子；应用when这个连词引导时间状语从句。

　　10.never----ever

　　语义错误。根据句意：他是我认识的最温柔的人。可知将never改为ever。

　　Howling is a behaviour commonly observed among a wolf pack. As pack animals, wolves work together to hunt and rely on howling as an important means of communication among each other. There are different explanations of a wolf’s howl and it appears that there may be more to discover.

　　One theory is that wolves howl to bond better together. It’s almost as if howling together helps the pack stay together. Perhaps something similar to people feeling a sense of involvement with each other when singing a song together. But this theory may be wrong, explains Fred H. Harrington, a professor who studies wolf behaviour.

　　Indeed, there have been times when wolves have been seen one moment howling in a chorus, and the next, quarreling among each other. It appears that usually the lowest-ranking members of the pack may actually be“punished” for joining in the chorus at times. So is howling a way to strengthen a social bond or just a way to reconfirm status among its members? —Why do wolves howl for sure?

　　What is clear, however, is that howling is often used among packmates to locate each other. Hunting grounds are distant and it happens that wolves may separate from one another at times. When this happens, howling appears to be an excellent means of gathering.

　　Howling, interestingly, is a contagious behaviour. When one wolf starts to howl, very likely others will follow. This is often seen to occur in the morning, as if wolves were doing some sort of “roll call” where wolves all howl together to report their presence.

　　1. What is the possible similarity between wolves’ howling together and humans’ singing in chorus?

　　A. The act of calling each other.

　　B. The sense of accomplishment.

　　C. The act of hunting for something.

　　D. The sense of belonging to a group.

　　2. Why does Harrington think the “social bond” theory may be wrong?

　　A. Wolves separate from each other after howling.

　　B. Wolves tend to protect their hunting grounds.

　　C. Wolves sometimes have quarrels after howling together.

　　D. Wolves of low rank are encouraged to join in the chorus.

　　3. Researchers are sure that wolves often howl to　.　

　　A. show their ranks

　　B. find their companions

　　D. express their loneliness

　　4. “Howling. . . is a contagious behaviour” (in the last paragraph)means　.　

　　A. howling is a signal for hunting

　　B. howling is a way of communication

　　C. howling often occurs in the morning

　　D. howling spreads from one to another

　　阅读理解

　　阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

　　British men are encouraged to cry.

　　There are certain things British men like to believe about themselves. The first is that one day they will again win the World Cup. They also believe they do not cry.

　　Over the centuries, Britons are believed to have a “stiff upper lip”. But is this true?

　　Yes, it is. A recent study arranged by Kleenex on how the British express their emotions reveals that 95 percent of them still contain their emotions.

　　Moreover, while 72 percent think this is unhealthy, 19 percent can’t remember the last time they “let it out”. As a result, Kleenex is launching the “Let It Out” campaign that encourages Britons to grab a tissue and have a good cry.

　　These days, however, the male Briton’s attitude toward crying is changing. Though the majority still struggles to open up emotionally, a 2004 study by Oxford’s Social Issues Research Center found that 77 percent of British men considered crying in public increasingly acceptable. Half of London males admitted crying in front of their mothers. Scotsmen are the least emotional, although they are the most likely to cry at weddings.

　　Peter Marsh, director of the center, said: “Crying can now indicate sensitivity rather than weakness. Like with David Beckham, crying because you’re dropping off your boy at nursery isn’t seen as weak.”

　　Winston Churchill was said to be a frequent crier, shedding tears at seeing a survivor in an air raid shelter (防空洞), and when he saw his wife after a long absence.

　　Psychologists say that while society has accepted that men can cry, there are limits. Ronald Bracey, a consulting psychologist, said: “If a man began to cry when he was having stitches (缝针)in hospital, he would be considered as a wimp(软弱的人). Men still need to be seen as strong when it comes to physical pain.”

　　1. What does the passage mainly deal with?

　　A. Impression of British men.

　　B. British men’s dream of the World Cup.

　　C. Advice on how to control emotions.

　　D. Different attitudes British men have towards crying.

　　2. Which of the following concerning the British men is NOT true according to the passage?

　　A. They are supposed to easily control emotions over the centuries.

　　B. They are confident that they will again get successful in the World Cup.

　　C. About 50% of British men admitted crying before their mothers.

　　D. Nowadays, the male Briton’s attitude toward crying is changing.

　　3. The word “contain”in Paragraph 4 means______.　

　　A. store　B. hold back

　　C. include　D. stir up

　　4. What does the author think of the British men’s crying?

　　A. They should cry if hurt.

　　B. They should keep firm not to cry to show they are not wimps.

　　C. They should be brave in face of physical pain and cry if necessary when facing other problems.

　　D. They should “let it out”whatever problems they meet with.
