I called out for an old man in the waiting line. Before I got on the rickshaw, I 2 (automatic) asked how much he would charge to take me across to the Mall. I 3 (tell) “10 dollars”. Then I started bargaining. He just gave a hard smile and said, “Whatever you feel like, please give me. It is not necessary4(bargain) on this small amount.”

I was a bit ashamed at myself and kept quiet while he continued, “5(like) those taxis, my vehicle does not run on petrol or diesel(柴油) or even gas; 6 runs on my sweat. So please give it to me 7 a smile, for the money has to feed so many 8(hunger) mouths at home.”

When we reached the Mall, I gave him the money and the smile 9 requested and added a gentle pat on his back. He smiled back as if to give me a receipt and I would preserve his smile for 10 long time.

【解析】試題分析:本文屬于記敘文,講述了在紐約乘坐人力三輪車時(shí),車夫的一番話讓我感覺他們生活的艱難與不易。

1distance 考查名詞。本題橫線前面是形容詞short,說明橫線上應(yīng)該使用名詞,所以使用形容詞distant的名詞形式distance。

2automatically 考查副詞。在英語中副詞通常做狀語修飾形容詞、副詞或動(dòng)詞,形容詞通常做定語或表語。本句中使用副詞automatically在句中做狀語修飾謂語動(dòng)詞。

3was told 考查時(shí)態(tài)語態(tài)。本句中主語I與動(dòng)詞tell構(gòu)成被動(dòng)關(guān)系,且根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知本文敘述過去發(fā)生的事情,所以本句使用一般過去時(shí)的被動(dòng)語態(tài)was told。

4to bargain 考查不定式用法。本句中it是形式主語,真正的主語是不定式短語to bargain on this small amount。

5Unlike 考查介詞。本句中介詞unlike...不一樣;句意:和那些出租車不一樣,我的這種車不用汽油,用的我的汗水。

6it 考查代詞。在英語中it通常指代上文出現(xiàn)的同一事物,本句中it指代前句中的my vehicle。

7with 考查介詞。本句中介詞with表示帶著,表示伴隨。請(qǐng)面對(duì)微笑把錢給我, 因?yàn)檫@錢要養(yǎng)活很多張饑餓的嘴。

8hungry 考查形容詞。在英語中形容詞通常做定語修飾名詞,或做表語和系動(dòng)詞構(gòu)成系表結(jié)構(gòu)。本句中使用形容詞hungry做定語修飾名詞mouths。

9as 考查連詞。本句中連詞as意為...一樣。引導(dǎo)方式狀語細(xì)節(jié),在后面省略了we were。句意:當(dāng)我們到達(dá)購物中心的時(shí)候,像被要求的那樣我給了他錢和微笑,并溫柔地拍了拍他的后背。

10a 考查固定短語。短語for a long time很長一段時(shí)間,該短語在句中作時(shí)間狀語。

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

【1】 When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure beats dance into view.

The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 2.

The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears: clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. 3 It included such items as automobile sand new houses.

By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “l(fā)ife-enriching”level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction-the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body-this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “l(fā)uxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. 4

On this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?

A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. 5In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.

A.Then a third level appeared.

B.Human wants seem endless.

C.When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears.

D.There are several levels of wants in one’s life.

E.At this stage, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure.

F.Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.

G.Different people have different wants on each level.

【題目】Japanese high school students either walk or ride bicycles if the distance is not too great. In other cases, students must take public buses and trains. After junior high school, students attend schools based on their high school entrance examination scores. So some students travel a great distance to attend the school.

【題目】This year, Face book, the social media website announced that it would cooperate with several news organizations including The New York Times, The Guardian, and the BBC to place news stories directly into users’ personal Face book webpage. Stories published using Face book Instant will load more quickly and keep the style of the original publisher, who will keep all the advertising income the stories earn at least for now. The deal shows how important social media has become to news organizations, and is a clear sign of how the world of news is changing and has been for a while.

Many thought of it as the death of the newspaper, when Google News began in 2002. It had no human editor. Instead Google used, and still uses, a secret computer program that selects and displays news stories according to the reader’s personal interests, More recently, Associated Press and Yahoo have been publishing computer-written articles. Both use special software to automatically produce stories about company financial results and sports reports areas where the quality of writing is felt to be of secondary importance to the accuracy of the data.

I think we should be concerned about such developments. One concern is that Facebook, Google and other social media websites see journalism as a sideline (副業(yè)), a way of putting people in front of advertisements. It isn’t their primary function so if it stops making them lots of money, they’re likely to stop doing it.

There’s another concern that computer-written articles are not actually journalism at all, because what a human news team produces is actually quite complex. A well-written news story puts information in context, offers a voice to each side of an argument and brings the public new knowledge.

Although economics and speed of delivery mean readers will probably choose a computer-written story over a carefully shaped article at least for daily news I don’t think the computers will be writing any in-depth articles for a while yet.

【1What is the main purpose of the article?

A. To report on a new computer service offered by Facebook.

B. To advise readers against reading computer-written news.

C. To express concern about recent trends in online news.

D. To describe the process of online news reporting.

【2】Computer-written news reports have so far focused on sports and finance because ________.

A. these are the most popular topics for online readers

B. writing style is less important than accuracy in these areas

C. information on these topics is more easily available

D. there are fewer journalists specializing in these areas

【3】What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A. Business. B. Advertising.

C. Facebook. D. Journalism.

【4In Paragraph 4, which of the following is mentioned as a characteristic of a well-written news article?

A. The information presented is up-to-date.

B. The author’s opinion is clear.

C. The language used is vivid.

D. Different views on the topic are presented.
