【解析】

【文章大意】帶著受傷的腳參加3 000米跑步比賽, 這注定沒法取勝。可是只要你勇于參賽, 堅(jiān)持到底, 你也會有所收獲。

1.選C。邏輯推理題。又是地區(qū)運(yùn)動會了, 可作者的腳由于上一次的(earlier)受傷仍然還沒有痊愈。注意本句中的過去完成時態(tài)及still的意義有著明顯的提示意義。slighter更輕微的; worse更糟的; earlier更早的, 上一次的; heavier更沉重的, 巨大的。

2.2】選D。邏輯推理題。根據(jù)上句可知, 作者不是認(rèn)為(supposed), 設(shè)想(imagined), 希望(expected)參加運(yùn)動會, 而是懷疑(doubted)自己是否應(yīng)該參加運(yùn)動會。

3.3】選C。邏輯推理題。但是我到了比賽場地, 準(zhǔn)備(ready)參加3 000米跑步。

4.4】選B。前后照應(yīng)題。其他的女孩子不是落到了后面(from behind), 靠近(close to, next to)作者, 而是沖到了作者的前面(ahead of)。后文as I fell farther and farther behind有所暗示。

5.5】選A。背景常識題。作者越來越落后, 作者不會感到驚訝(astonished), 也激動(excited)不起來, 而是感到慚愧(ashamed), 當(dāng)然不至于害怕(frightened)。

6.6】選A。詞匯復(fù)現(xiàn)題。這是作者在運(yùn)動會上聽到的最大的歡呼聲(cheer)。前面“Hooray! ”(歡呼的叫聲)也有所暗示, 后文I heard a cheer—   than the one I’d heard earlier和They must be cheering for the boys. 也都有明顯提示。

7.7】選B。邏輯推理題。第一名已經(jīng)先我兩圈到達(dá)了終點(diǎn), 作者心想可能自己不該參加比賽, 應(yīng)該放棄(drop out)才對。slow down(使)慢下來, (使)減速; drop out不參與, 離去, 放棄; go on繼續(xù)下去; speed up加速。

8.8】選D。邏輯推理題。然而我還是決定堅(jiān)持跑下去。注意前后句子之間的轉(zhuǎn)折意義。therefore因此, 所以, 表示因果關(guān)系; otherwise另外, 否則, 表示其他情況的出現(xiàn); besides此外, 還, 表示附加意義; however然而, 可是, 表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。

9.9】選C。前后照應(yīng)題。跑最后兩圈時, 作者無法輕松(with delight)起來, 也沒有害怕恐懼(with fear), 當(dāng)然也無法提前(in advance)到達(dá), 而是在腳疼(in pain)的狀態(tài)中跑著。前文My foot still hadn’t healed from a(n)   injury. 已經(jīng)有所提示。

10.0】選C。邏輯推理題。作者在想這一次已經(jīng)沒有辦法了, 明年就不參加賽跑了。文中一再談到race和track。

11.1】選A。邏輯推理題。由上文作者已落后且腳有傷, 可知作者認(rèn)為這樣做不值得, 故用worth, valuable后不能直接加賓語。

12.2】選D。前后照應(yīng)題。歡呼聲不是更弱(weaker), 更低(lower), 而是更大(louder)。longer缺少比較的對象或前提。

13.3】選B。邏輯推理題。作者轉(zhuǎn)身看到男孩子正準(zhǔn)備開始比賽, 確信(sure)大家是為男孩子歡呼。

14.4】選B。邏輯推理題。作者正準(zhǔn)備離開, 這時幾個女孩子走上前來。when在此句中作并列連詞, 意思是“正在這時, 就在那個時候, 突然”。while作從屬連詞, 表示“當(dāng)……時候”, 通常強(qiáng)調(diào)兩個動作或情況的同時發(fā)生; as作從屬連詞, 表示“當(dāng)……時候”, 通常強(qiáng)調(diào)一個動作或情況伴隨另一動作或情況; since作從屬連詞, 表示“自……以后, 自……以來”。

15.5】選D。邏輯推理題。作者對女孩的贊揚(yáng)不解, 因?yàn)樗齽倓偱苓^了終點(diǎn), 結(jié)束了比賽, 但跑在最后沒有獲勝, 輸(lose)了比賽。

16.6】選B。邏輯推理題。女孩子們的鼓勵使作者又找回了失去的希望(hope), 而不是歡樂(cheer), 興趣(interest), 經(jīng)驗(yàn)(experience)。

17.7】選D。詞語辨析題。作者決定明年還要參加(stick with)徑賽比賽。hold on把持住, 不掛斷, 停止, 繼續(xù), 常有hold on to的用法。turn to轉(zhuǎn)向, 求助于, 致力于, 開始行動; begin with首先, 用……開頭; stick with與……固定在一起, 堅(jiān)持做(某事)。

18.8】選A。邏輯推理題。作者意識到力量和勇氣并非總是可以用獎牌和勝利衡量(measure)的。measure估量, 斟酌, 權(quán)衡; praise贊揚(yáng), 稱贊; test測試, 檢驗(yàn); increase增加, 增大。

19.9】選B。邏輯推理題。但是在我們戰(zhàn)勝了的“競爭”中, 力量和勇氣總是可以估量出來。sadness悲哀, 悲傷; struggle掙扎, 努力, 奮斗; disease疾病, 弊病; tiredness疲勞, 疲倦。

20.20】選D。邏輯推理題。最堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的人并非總是贏得勝利的人, 而是(but)那些遇到失敗挫折時決不放棄的人。or或者, 還是, 表示選擇關(guān)系; nor也不, 表示否定關(guān)系; and表示并列關(guān)系; but表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。

Last Tuesday, the Students' Union in our school advised that Senior Three students shall do something specially for their parents on their 18th birthdays. All the students are active in responding it and most of them have come up with their ideas. Some choose to write a letter saying it's best way to express their appreciations as well as love for their parents. Others will prefer to cook a big meal to show that they've already grown up.

As for me, I want to do up hair and wash feet for my parents. By doing which my parents have been doing for me I can really know how much they've devoted to bring me up. Being 18 years old mean that we should learn to be independent and that we should be responsible for us.

Has been a dream for 30 years but now the world’s first flying car is set to hit the roads this year.

Ever since the “Back to the Future” movies lit up our screens in the 1980s, designers have dreamt of cars that could take to the sky at the push of a button(按鈕). And now pilots can order their own “roadable” plane for just£127, 000.

The plane, which has fold-out wings that span 17. 5 feet, can be up to 115 mph. Back on the land, it can also travel at “highway speeds” in car mode(模式).

Fuelling(加燃料)the 19 feet long plane couldn’t be simpler—you just drive it into a petrol station and fill it up.

The spokeswoman added, “Never let bad weather change your trip. You can simply divert(使轉(zhuǎn)向)and continue on the ground until the weather clears. ”

On Saturday, Feb 12, 2000, two things happened that changed my life.

First of all, my baby sister got married. She was 26 this day, and yet to me she was still my baby sister.

I was happy, but also sad. Gone were the days of me bossing(支使) her around. My bossy behavior had once earned me the nickname Lucy. If you’re a fan of Peanuts, then you can clearly imagine my behavior as an older sister.

At one point, I left the wedding reception to get some air. I went outside and walked to a nearby playground. I’m not sure how long I sat there before my sister came and joined me. We talked about how we were both grown up. As she wiped a tear from my eye, she lovingly said, “You’ll always be Lucy to me.” We hugged.

Then, my cousin Mike walked over to tell us that it was time to cut the cake, and the second thing that changed my life that day came to pass.

“Hey, did you guys hear that Charles Schulz died today?” he said casually – as if it were no big deal. Then he took my sister’s arm and they turned to head back to the reception hall. “Coming?” they asked. “In a minute,” I replied, and I sat back down on the bench, dizzy from what Mike had just told me.

How could Charles Schulz be dead? He was my creator! He was almost like a father to me!

I had lost so many things on that day. My innocence had slipped away like a thief in the night. It was gone before I could do anything about it, taking with it all the treasures that I had held in my heart. I felt myself grow up in an instant. I saw, for the first time, what I really was – a 30-year-old woman with a husband of my own, and soon, a child of my own.

I took a deep breath and stood up from the bench. I turned and headed back to the hall, hoping I hadn’t missed the cutting of the cake. It was the day that my sister grew wings of her own and left the nest – the day that Lucy died, and I was born.

1.Why did the author feel sad at her sister’s wedding?

A. She was afraid of change.

B. Her sister was getting ready to move far away from her.

C. Her wonderful childhood with her sister had become a thing of the past.

D. She had nobody to turn to for help with housework.

2.When the author’s cousin told her that Charles Schulz had died, she __________.

A. felt a great sense of loss

B. burst into tears

C. thought he was joking

D. got angry at him for his attitude

3.What is implied when the author says that “Lucy died, and I was born”?

A. The author has realized how her sister must have felt about her and decided to change.

B. Lucy no longer matters to the author.

C. The author doesn’t like the nickname Lucy anymore.

D. The author is no longer sad and ready to face the fact that she is an adult.

4.The best title of the passage can be __________.

A. Two things changing my life

B. My baby sister’s wedding

C. Not Lucy anymore

D. Not innocent anymore
