答案:
本文是一篇记叙文,讲述自己对父亲一次不耐烦的反应而产生的懊悔之情,从而使作者在之后的生活中谨言慎行。
1. D 根据后面的other things began to...可知,这里表示转折关系。
2. A draw my attention的意思是“吸引我的注意力”,即当我长成少年,其他一些事情吸引了我的注意力。
3. B 根据第二段中,作者的朋友去看电影却没有叫上作者,作者因此而生气,可知,当时作者认为跟朋友在一起更棒。
4. C devote...to是固定搭配,意思是“把……用于”,即我为什么要花费整个星期日和他骑车啊。
5. A 当我表现出冷漠时,父亲也不吱声。keep silent“保持沉默”。
6. B in case意思是“以防(万一)”。当他计划自行车旅行的时候总会让我知道,万一我也想去呢。这里讲,即便父亲发现作者的冷漠,他还是会问作者愿不愿意去骑车。
7. A (be)in low spirits是固定短语,意思是“情绪低落”。由空后“我的两个朋友去看电影却没叫我”可知答案。
8. C 父亲进了(entered)我的房间。
9. A 根据前面内容可知,此处指父亲问我是否去骑车。
10. D 因为我情绪低落,因此父亲跟我说话时,我不耐烦地喊道(shouted):“让我一个人呆着。”
11. B 根据第二段第一句话可知,这时候是周日上午。
12. C 警察打电话通知(informing)我们,说父亲出了交通事故。其他几项不符合题意。convince“说服”;remind“提醒”;phone“打电话”,与前面的called重复。
13. A eventually最后;generally一般地;strictly严格地;broadly概括地。根据语意“几天后父亲才最终开口说话”可知,A项正确。
14. B 我轻轻地抓住父亲的手,害怕弄疼他。
15. D mean表示“指的是,意思是”,即作者向父亲解释自己对父亲说“对不起”的原因。这句话的意思是:我指的是我那天早上对你说的话。
16. C 父亲的意思是“我记不得那天(早上)的事情了”。
17. D manage a smile的意思是“强作微笑”,符合语意。18. B 我从来没有想过让父亲将我单独留下。
19. D 语言有不可估量的力量。由下文to choose our words可知答案。
20. C power在这里的意思是“能力”,即每个人都有能力选择自己要说的话,作者打算以后更加注意自己说的话。
.阅读理解
A powerful earthquake struck the northeastern coast of Japan at 2:46 p.m. local time on March 11th, 2011. Japans Meteorological Agency released its first tsunami warnings just three minutes later. The country has one of the best earthquake early warning systems in the world.
There are over 4,000 Seismic Intensity Meters(地震烈度测量仪)in place throughout Japan to measure earthquake activity. These meters provide information within two minutes of an earthquake happening. Information about the strength and the center of the earthquake can be learned within three minutes. There are also concrete sea walls around much of the Japanese coastline. But these measures proved no match for the powerful earthquake and tsunami.
Costas Synolakis is a tsunami expert in Los Angeles. He says, “Japan is one of those most wellprepared countries on earth in terms of tsunami warning. They had a warning. I think what went wrong is that they had not anticipated the size of this event.”
He says there are two reasons for this. Japan has not had any event anywhere near as big as this one in the last 150 years. And scientists had not expected such a large earthquake happening off the coast of Japan.
The 9.0magnitude earthquake was the 4th most powerful earthquake ever recorded worldwide. It was also the worst earthquake ever to hit Japan. The tsunami waves that followed were reported to have reached as high as 13 meters in some areas.
Costas Synolakis says Japan?s concrete sea walls were not built to handle such high waves. A tsunami wave can travel as fast as 800 kilometers per hour. To get to higher ground people would often have to travel for many kilometers. This can take more time than a fast traveling tsunami will permit. This is especially true in cases like Japan, where the center of the earthquake struck so close to the coastline. The tsunami waves followed almost immediately.
Experts say early warning systems will continue to be limited by these facts until earthquakes and tsunamis can be predicted.
1. From the second paragraph we can infer that________.
A. Japan is an island country
B. the center of the earthquake is located in the northeastern coast
C. the meters in Japan have dropped behind
D. many measures have been carried out to reduce the consequences of earthquakes in Japan
2. The underlined word “anticipated” in the third paragraph probably means “________”.
A. predicted
B. measured
C. counted
D. prevented
3. The underlined words “these facts” in the last paragraph refer to the following EXCEPT________.
A. the concrete sea walls can’t control the wave
B. it is the worst earthquake happening in Japan in the history
C. the speed of the tsunami is frightening and quick
D. there are many earthquakes in Japan
4. Which may be the best title of this passage?
A. Earthquakes and tsunamis can be predicted
B. A 9.0magnitude earthquake hit Japan
C. Japan’s concrete sea walls
D. A report about Japan’s early warning systems
5. On which column of China Daily can you find the passage?
A. Technology
B. Culture discovery
C. Travel
D. History
答案:
本文是科技文。日本的地震预警系统位居世界前列,能在地震发生后的两分钟内提供信息。三分钟内能够提供有关地震强度和震中的信息。在海啸预警方面,日本是世界上准备工作做得最充分的国家之一,但这次他们没能预测出这次海啸的规模如此之大。
1. D 推理判断题。A说法正确,但不是本段的推理;B不是由第二段推理得出的,是第一段中明示的信息。根据These meters provide information within two minutes of an earthquake happening. Information about the strength and the center of the earthquake can be learned within three minutes. 判断,C项推理错误。D项根据所列事实可以判断得出。
2. A 猜测词义题。根据第四段和第五段信息可知,日本的海啸预警系统是世界上最好的之一,此次失误在于没有预料到海啸的规模如此大。
3. D 细节认定题。根据文章倒数第二段、倒数第三段内容可知答案为D。4. D 主旨大意题。根据全文内容判断,文章介绍日本拥有世界上最先进的地震、海啸预警系统,但没有预料到这次大地震和海啸如此之猛。
5. A 推理判断题。本文主要介绍的是日本的地震、海啸预警系统的先进性和局限性。

范文:
Boys and girls,
Its a great honor for me to tell you something about our English club which lasts for two months. By the activities in our English club, we not only practise but also learn more English. For example, recently, one of our activities was about introducing different countries in Shanghai Expo. We divided ourselves into different groups which represented different countries, such as China, Japan, America, the UK. Each group introduced “their country’s” culture, advanced technology, environment protection, new green energy. What’s more, we tried to describe the development in the future. Through this activity, we have a good harvest in English and improve our oral English greatly.
All in all, I think studying English by activities, especially in connection with recent things, is a better method.
That’s all. Thank you.
