(1)The half-empty coffee cups, still standing next to their plates, tell of a morning like others. And yet, that grey covering of dust that everything wears tells a different story: it tells of screams, tears, confusion, terror and blood.
(2)Now the restaurant in the World Trade Center will never again serve breakfast. And never again will all those people go there to eat or work --- those people of America whose faces have entered our hearts. So many people whose faces we associate with life and liveliness _______ tonight. So many words remain unsaid, and so much happiness has been destroyed. In their places are tear-stained faces. My generation has seen this. On Monday, a fight with my sister and a bad grade seemed to be the biggest problems in the world. Tonight, so many people across the country know that America’s pain is at its worst ever. We have read about World War II, and we have seen the black-and-white pictures. But to most students, that’s an event on a textbook page that would never happen today.
(3) After all, this was a time of peace and wealth --- the United States was powerful and successful. There would be no more wars, and we were lucky to live in such a time. But when those planes hit; when firefighters with terror on their faces ran among the parts of the buildings that had fallen; when people screamed for their family members; when history was unfolding before our eyes, in full, clear colour ---- then we knew the world had been changed.
(4) Everything that had happened in the past seemed to take on new life through September 11, 2001. And when they say this is the worst wound in American soil, I say, I thought this place was an empire. And I say, I thought this was a time of peace. And I say, I thought we were safe.
(5) Knowing how many human beings turned to ashes in a second, and seeing some jumps from the buildings, I know that my generation is growing up in a world where mankind can still be evil. But seeing those heroes risk lives among the castle-like ruins, and seeing the eager blood donors at the hospitals, my generation has learned that tears are allowed, that mankind can also be beautiful, and that the ghost of evil will never defeat the spirit of good.

試題分析:
小題1:主旨推斷題。文章第一自然段采用情景再現(xiàn)的描寫(xiě)手法,第二自然段,通過(guò)對(duì)情景的回憶,講到世貿(mào)中心將不再供應(yīng)早餐,很多的幸福都被毀壞了,第四自然段降到在911之后過(guò)去發(fā)生的一切都似乎呈現(xiàn)出了新的面貌。最后一段作者通過(guò)美與丑,罪惡與善良的對(duì)比,作者深信邪惡永遠(yuǎn)戰(zhàn)勝不了正義,所以整體可知,這篇文章是用來(lái)紀(jì)念911襲擊的,即in honor of September 11 attack.
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)題。最后一段seeing those heroes risk lives among the castle-like ruins, and seeing the eager blood donors at the hospitals可知,作者看到那些英雄們冒著生命危險(xiǎn)在廢墟中展開(kāi)營(yíng)救行動(dòng),看到在醫(yī)院里絡(luò)繹不絕的獻(xiàn)血者時(shí),作者相信這個(gè)世界仍然是美好的。
小題3:從第一段And yet, that grey covering of dust that everything wears tells a different story: it tells of screams, tears, confusion, terror and blood.
可知,那些布滿灰塵的灰色覆蓋物,講述著一個(gè)不同的故事:它講述是尖叫,眼淚,困惑,恐懼和鮮血。故可知,it指上文的布滿灰塵的灰色覆蓋物。
小題4:通過(guò)后文,So many words remain unsaid, and so much happiness has been destroyed.很多話還未說(shuō)出口,很多的幸福都以毀滅,可知前文提到有這么多人,通過(guò)他們的臉,我們?nèi)阅苈?lián)想起他們的生活和熱情,這些人在今夜都不復(fù)存在了。故填are gone.
小題5:第二段We have read about World War II, and we have seen the black-and-white pictures.可知,作者提到了第二次世界大戰(zhàn),和黑白照片,這些對(duì)于很多學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō),只是教科書(shū)上永遠(yuǎn)都不可能再發(fā)生的事情。第三段,作者講到作者認(rèn)為這是一個(gè)和平?jīng)]有戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的年代,所以由此可知,911讓作者想起了第二次世界大戰(zhàn)。
點(diǎn)評(píng):文章作者通過(guò)911之前的情形和現(xiàn)在情形的對(duì)比,同時(shí)通過(guò)自己對(duì)人生的感悟,將自己所表達(dá)的“邪不壓正”的中心思想表達(dá)的很形象。答此類題目,因結(jié)合題目在文章找準(zhǔn)位置,盡量用文章的語(yǔ)句回答,同時(shí)如果字?jǐn)?shù)不多,可以采用只寫(xiě)主謂賓,將修飾成分去掉的方法答題。

The old-fashioned general store is fast disappearing. This is, perhaps, a pity, because shopping today seems to lack that personal contact which existed when the shopkeeper knew all his regular customers personally. He could, for instance, remember which brand of tea Mrs. Smith usually bought or what sort of washing-powder Mrs. Jones preferred. Not only was the shop a center of buying and selling, but also a social meeting place.
A prosperous general store might have employed four or five assistants, and so there were very few problems in management as far as the staff were concerned. But now that the supermarket has replaced the general store, the job of the manager has changed completely. The modern supermarket manager has to cope with a staff of as many as a hundred, apart from all the other everyday problems of running a large business.
Every morning the manager must, like the commander of an army division, carry out an inspection of his store to make sure that everything is ready for the business of the day. He must see that everything is running smoothly. He will have to give advice and make decisions as problems arise, and he must know how to get his huge staff to work efficiently with their respective responsibilities. No matter what he has to do throughout the day, however, the supermarket manager must be ready for any emergency that may arise. They say in the trade that you are not really an experienced supermarket manager until you have dealt with a flood, a fire, a birth and a death in your store.  (Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)
小題1: Why is it a pity that there are fewer old-fashioned general stores now? _____________________________.
小題2: The shopkeeper was often the most well-informed person in the neighborhood because _____________________________.
小題3: The words “… a flood, a fire, a birth and a death …” in the last sentence refer to _____________________________.
小題4: What must the manager do every morning? ___________________________.

閱讀下面短文,回答文后的5個(gè)問(wèn)題,并把答案寫(xiě)在答題卡指定區(qū)域內(nèi)。
[1] If you read a newspaper or listen to a newscast(news report) recently, you may hear or read a strange word, “staycation.” Staycation is a new word the American press(newspapers, radio, and television) is using to describe a vacation very close to your own home, or simply staying at home during your vacation. It is a combination of the words “stay” and “vacation”.
[2] According to many news reports, these staycations are very popular among American families this year. Why? The high price of gasoline for cars and airplanes has made it very expensive for Americans to travel compared to past years. When you combine this with the weak American dollar, it all adds up to people deciding to stay close to home during their traditional summer vacations. Of course, some places are more interesting to “stay home at” than others. And if you live in a very small town, well, you may just want to skip your vacation and save your time up to next year!
[3] Everything is expensive nowadays, and let’s face it—a vacation just may not be in your plan this year. You don’t have to give up family fun just because you can’t              ; instead, follow my tips for an economical staycation filled with old favorites and new adventures! Staycations have achieved high popularity in current hard economic times in which unemployment levels and gas prices are high. 
小題1:What is this passage mainly about? (within one word)
小題2:Which two words make the new word “staycation”? (within 3 words)
小題3:What’s the meaning of “staycation”? (within 20 words)

小題1:Four students carry a special boat named "Simida" made of 1,504 empty plastic beverage bottles to a lake for its maiden voyage at Chongqing University of Science and Technology in Southwest China's Chongqing municipality, Sept 14, 2011. It took the four students two months to make the boat which is 4.48 meters by 1.3 meters and weighs 58.2 kilograms. The maiden voyage lasted about 20 minutes with plenty of students witnessing the occasion.
小題2:As he journeyed back, he was caught by pirates, because he was always richly dressed and often mistaken for a prince or a noble young man. The pirates thought his parents would like to pay a handsome ransom for his safe return.
小題3:Another habit which can slow your reading is called “subvocalization”. In this case your lips do not move, but you will “hear” each word in your head as you read silently. 
小題4:If a student behaves very badly the principal can suspend the student. The student cannot come to school for one, two, or three days. Mr.Lazares didn't like to suspend students. When he suspended some students, they were happy. “A three-day vacation!”they thought.     
小題5:Later, as a member of an after-school science club, I was challenged to solve problems about the natural world by experiments, initially by repeating already known experiments but later by being required to design new ways to solve the puzzles I had raised.

[1] Learning to save money when you’re young is an important lesson. All good lessons and habits begin early, and saving is a skill that everyone needs. Many people-adults included-do not have a good sense of saving for the long run.
[2] Make sure you save and don’t spend too much, which is a good way to build up wealth. I have put my earnings in a bank. Many teens I know spend all the money they earn so it never has a chance to grow. Young people should realize that their teenage years are a great time to begin saving.
[3] At high school many parents pay for almost everything , so your expenses can be small, If you have a lot , you should have fun with some of the money. But you should also save some so that it will grow. Then you can begin planning for your future.
[4] After high school, college is expensive and then “real” life begins, with expenses such as food and rent. You can hold on to a good percentage of the money you earn as a teen. The earlier      ,the more time the money has to grow. If you are in your thirties without any savings, you will always have to struggle. The earlier you begin saving, the easier it is to create a nest egg.
[5]Later in life it can be hard to start saving because general costs of living are more expensive and you may only have enough to pay your bills. If you want to buy a house and have a family, you need money to start with, which comes from saving.
[6]Saving early will mean you will have to work for fewer years when you are older. It will also allow you to spend time doing the things that you want to do. In addition, it will mean you can live the way you want to without worrying.

閱讀下面的短文,然后以約 30 個(gè)詞概括故事的主要內(nèi)容。
Who says honesty is dead? Last Tuesday morning Alan Reed, a student, was at the bank. He asked to take out $ 50 but the bank clerk mistakenly gave him five twenties instead of five tens. For a few seconds he wondered what to do. Should he give the extra money back? Keep it? If he kept it, he could buy several new books, or he could take his friend Alice to a fancy dinner. Probably no one would ever notice. Besides, this would make up for all the times he’d been overcharged. But then he looked at the clerk. She was a middle-aged woman with a sweet face, and she reminded him of his mother. She had been nice to him, and she looked pressured in her work. Then it occurred to him that the lady would probably get in trouble. Worst of all, Alan felt, he would probably feel guilty about keeping the extra cash. So Alan gave back the money.
The bank clerk was so impressed that someone was honest enough to return money not rightfully his that she contacted the newspaper. So there you have it. What would you have done if you’d been in Alan’s position?

[1]Global difference in intelligence is a sensitive topic, long filled with a large number of different opinions. But recent data has indeed shown cognitive (認(rèn)知的) ability to be higher in some countries than in others. What's more, IQ scores have risen as nations develop --- a phenomenon known as the "Flynn effect". Many causes have been put forward for both the intelligence difference and the Flynn effect, including education, income, and even non-agricultural labor. Now, a new study from researchers at the University of New Mexico offers another interesting theory:intelligence may be linked to infectious-disease rates.
[2]The brain, say author Christopher Eppig and his colleagues, is the "most costly organ in the human body". Brainpower consumes almost up to 90 percent of a newborn's energy. It's clear that if something affects energy intake while the brain is growing, the impact could be long and serious. And for vast parts of the globe, the biggest threat to a child's body -- and therefore brain ---is parasitic (由寄生蟲(chóng)引起的) infection. These illnesses threaten brain development __________. They can directly attack live tissue, which the body must then try every means to replace. They can invade the digestive pipe and block nutritional intake. They can rob the body's cells for their own reproduction. And then there's the energy channeled (輸送) to the immune system to fight the infection.
[3] Using data on national "disease burdens" (life years lost due to infectious diseases) and average intelligence scores, the authors found they are closely associated. The countries with the lowest average IQ scores have the highest disease burdens without exception. On the contrary, nations with low disease burdens top the IQ list.
[4]If the study holds water, it could be revolutionary for our understanding of the still-confusing variation in national intelligence scores.
