　　Ⅰ.完形填空

　　I hadnt really planned on taking a trip this time of year, and yet I found myself packing rather hurriedly. I knew in__1__that this trip was going to be unpleasant.

　　I’m talking about my annual “Guilt Trip”. I got tickets to fly there on “WISH­I­HAD” airlines. I__2____my baggage all the way, which was weighted down with a thousand__3__of “what might have been”. No one greeted me at the “Regret City” International Airport.

　　As I__4__into the Last Resort Hotel, I noticed they would be__5__the year?s most important event, the annual “Pity Party”. I wasn?t going to miss that great__6__occasion.

　　Many leading citizens went there. First, there was the “Should­Have­Done” family.__7__came the “I­Wish” family. Of course, the “Opportunities” family, “Missed and Lost”， surely made an__8__. They each had a sad story to share. “It’s­Their­Fault” treated us with stories about__9__things had failed in his life, and each story was applauded by “Don’t­Blame­Me” and “I­Couldn’t­Help­It”．

　　To make a long__10__short, I became very depressed at the party__11__.

　　But as I thought about all the stories of failures__12__from the past, it occurred to me that all of this trip and the “Pity Party” could have been cancelled by ME!

　　I truly realized that I didn?t have to be there to be__13__. One thing kept going through my mind—I can?t change yesterday, but I__14__have the power to make today a wonderful day. Knowing this, I left “Regret City” immediately. Am I sorry for__15__I?ve made in the past? YES! But there is no way to undo them.

　　So, if you?re planning a trip to “Regret City”， please cancel all your reservations now. __16__， take a trip to a place called “Starting Again”， which I like so much that Ive made it my__17__residence. My neighbors, the “I­Forgive­Myself” and the “New­Starts” are very helpful.

　　By the way, you don?t have to carry__18__heavy baggage, because the load is lifted from your shoulders__19__arrival. Surely you?ll find this great town—it?s in your own heart. Look me up if you?re ready for a(n)__20__change in your life. I live on “I­CAN­DO­IT” Street.

　　答案：

　　本文形象地叙述了我们对生活应该有的态度。作者将自己的懊恼装进行囊，来到“后悔之城”，大家交流的都是已经过去、不可挽回的懊恼事，作者听得心情很沉重。于是，他改变旅行的目的地，来到“从头再来”这个城市，并喜欢上这里的生活，在一条叫“我能行”的街道定居下来。

　　1. C　语境说还没有计划今年这个时候要出行，但是还是在匆忙地打点行囊，我事先知道这次旅行将会是不愉快的，由此判断选C，in advance提前。

　　2. D　从下文可知我的行李很沉重，由此判断选D表示“拉，拖”。我一路拖着我沉重的行李，行囊中装满了1,000个“本来可能”的回忆，而当我到达“后悔之城”国际机场的时候，没有人来接我。文中最后一段第一句是答案提示。

　　3. C　既然是what might have been，那么叙述的就应该是过去的情况，“原本可以……”，因此此空选C，行囊中装满的是对往事的回忆。A“灵感”，B“处方”，D“纪念品”。

　　4. A　这里用短语check into表示“登记入住”：当我登记入住“最后的度假旅馆”时。

　　5. B　下文说很多有名望的市民都来到这家旅馆，由此判断选B，我在登记住宿时发现，这家旅馆将主办每年最大的盛事：一年一度的“后悔大聚会”。

　　6. B　下文提到Many leading citizens，由此判断选B，这是一次社交活动。

　　7. D　从语意的连贯和倒装句结构判断选D　首先到来的是名为“本来该做”的一家人，然后进来的是“我希望”这一家。

　　8. B　当然，名为“机会”“失去的与丢失的”这些家庭也粉墨登场了。这里用make an appearance表示“出现，到来”。

　　9. C　“都怪他们”给我们讲述他的人生中那一件件失败的事情。这里用how引导宾语从句表方式。

　　10. A　这里用固定短语make a long story short表示“长话短说”：长话短说，听了他们讲述的那些故事，我和往常一样觉得很失落。

　　11. D　四个选项的含义：after all终究，毕竟；in public公开地；ever since从此；as usual和往常一样。听了他们的讲述，作者和以往一样，觉得很伤感、失落。12. A　这些都是对往事的回忆，用bring sth. back (to sb.)表示“使想起，使回忆起”：当我思考这些被重提的失败时，我突然觉得我原本可以不来参加这次旅行和这个“后悔大聚会”的。

　　13. B　我真正意识到我本来没有必要来这，把自己弄得很郁闷。

　　14. D　与前面语境呼应，这里用一般现在时的do加强语气：我无力改变昨天，但我确实有能力使今天成为—个美好的日子。

　　15. C　前面叙述的那些人或地方，都是为过去的错误在反思，因此选C。我也为过去的错误而后悔，但是没有办法使那些事情恢复原状。undo使恢复原状，消除……的坏影响。

　　16. A　从语意的连贯判断选A表示“代替，(不是……)而是”：假如你打算到“后悔之城”去，那么，请你取消所有的预订，改变行程到“从头再来”。

　　17. C　我如此喜欢这个地方，以至于我已经将它作为我永久的居所。independent独立的；mature成熟的；permanent永久的；dynamic有活力的。

　　18. D　作者在此继续提出建议：来到“从头再来”这座城市时，没有必要拖着沉重的行李，别(像我当初那样)拉着个大行李到处奔波。这里用副词around表示“到处”。

　　19. B　一来到“从头再来”，你就会放下过去的一切包袱。用upon表示“一……就，在……后立即”。

　　20. A　因为这个地方的名字叫“从头再来”，因此本空选A：假如你想“彻底”改变自己，就来找我咨询。我住在“我能行”大街。

　　Ⅱ.阅读理解

　　NANJING, June 13,2009(Xinhua)—China will see the longest total solar eclipse(日食)in 500 years on July 22, a scientist said Saturday.

　　The most important time of the total eclipse was expected to begin from 9：00 a．m. to 9：38 a．m(Beijing Time), said Wang Sichao, a research fellow with the Nanjing—based Purple Mountain Observatory under the Chinese Academy of Sciences. “The total eclipse will last up to six minutes, which is the longest one that can be seen in China in almost 500 years from 1,814 to 2,309，” Wang said.

　　He said viewers in parts of eleven provinces in Chinas southwestern, central­southern and eastern areas, such as Tibet, Hunan and Jiangsu, will be able to witness the total solar eclipse, while in most parts of Shanghai, viewers can also see the fantastic phenomenon. For viewers in other provinces, including Beijing, they can observe a part of the eclipse, he said.

　　A solar eclipse occurs when the moon is caught between the sun and the earth while each of them moves along their fixed orbits. In a total solar eclipse, the sun, the moon and the earth are directly in a line as the sun swings into the shadow cast by the moon.

　　Wang said the next total solar eclipse that can be seen in China will fall on March the 20th, 2034. “But it can only be seen in remote provinces, such as Tibet and Qinghai. It cannot be compared with the upcoming one—in terms of time of lasting and number of cities that can see the eclipse，” he added. The last total solar eclipse visible in China took place on the first of August last year. It was observed in northwest China and lasted two minutes in Yiwu County of northwestern Xinjiang, the best place to see the phenomenon.

　　1. According to the report, the total eclipse on July the 22nd will last________.

　　A. over a month

　　B. about 38 minutes

　　C. about 6 minutes

　　D. less than 30 minutes

　　2. Viewers can possibly witness the total solar eclipse in________.

　　A. Liaoning

　　B. Sichuan

　　C. Beijing

　　D. Xinjiang

　　3. When a total solar eclipse happens，________.

　　A. the moon goes into the shadow cast by the sun

　　B. the earth stays between the sun and the moon

　　C. the sun temporarily moves into the moons orbit

　　D. the sun is in a line with the moon and the earth

　　4. Which is the best title for this report?

　　A. China to witness longest total solar eclipse in 500 years.

　　B. The most important total solar eclipse will favor China.

　　C. The beginning time of the total solar eclipse is expected.

　　D. China has been the best place to witness the solar eclipse.

　　答案：

　　范文：

　　I still remember how nervous I was on my first day in the new school three years ago, when I found it difficult to follow my teacher in the first English class. The teacher spoke English throughout the class, which was totally different from the lessons I had taken before.

　　In the morning class the next day, the English teacher came to me while I was reading the text aloud as the other students were doing. After listening to me for a while, she gave me a big smile and said she liked my voice very much. The smile shone on the whole day and the following days. A week later, I volunteered to take charge of English study in my class.

　　Thanks to the comforting smile in my first morning class, I began to be confident.
