【題目】 news came to us as great surprise that Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 crashed with 154 Chinese passengers on aboard.

A. A; a B. The; a C. The; the D. The; /

【答案】B

【解析】本句中含有一個同位語從句that Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 crashed with 154 Chinese passengers on aboard說明前面的名詞news的內(nèi)容，說明該詞表示的是特指，故使用定冠詞the；第二空的名詞surprise驚訝，原來是一個抽象名詞，要單獨使用。但是在本句中是一個具體的名詞，表示“令人驚訝的事情”。驚訝：載有154名乘客的馬來西亞航班MH370墜毀的消息對我們來說是一件非常令人驚訝的事情。故B正確。

【題目】Juac has made the leap from being an African refugee (難民) to a chess champion in the United States. His job is to share his expertise(專長) with students in schools, chess camps and other events.

During Sudan's civil war in the mid-1980s, Juac was forced out of the country with 20,000 0ther so -called Lost Boys. He fled to Ethiopia, then to Kenya staying in a refugee camp for eight years, where he learned to play chess.

Juac described a dangerous journey in which half the boys didn't survive. To eat, they had to kill wild animals.

"There were animals on the way. It was about a thousand miles and sometimes there was no water. When we were in Ethiopia, we had to cross the river and there a lot drowned."

Juac arrived in the United States in 2004 and began working as a security guard. Winning a chess tournament gave him this teaching opportunity. Juac believes chess helps prepare young people for life.

"Some kids are not interested, so it's your job to make them like the game, to explain them what chess is going to help them with." He said. "Like, I can tell, this game will give you patience, and help with your math skills."

Julie Cathone, a second grade teacher in Jackson Public School, agrees. The School's principal, Meghan Kelley, said Juac and chess have made a big difference.

"What a role model. I mean when you think about just overcoming, and finding what you love and turning that into your life's work."

Juac said he enjoys the freedom he has in the United States. But his passion is playing and teaching chess to youngsters. His boss, Michael Propper , said Juac has one great advantage.

"I think he's believable. I think they look at him and he's so unassuming that they feel like they can do what he's doing and be a person as he is too."

Ju ac still has a big goal ahead of him-becoming an international chess master. With his skill and patience, Propper and his peers have no doubt that will happen.

【1】How long did Juac most probably stay in Ethiopia?

A. About six years. B. About eight years.

C. About twelve years. D. About sixteen years.

【2】We can learn from the passage that Juac _

A. must be teaching kids chess for free

B. is patient and good at math problems

C. surely has his own chess school in American

D. hasn't taken part in international chess contests

【3】The underlined word "unassuming" probably means __

A. not appear important B. seem to be very great

C. appear very charming D. be not strict or serious

【4】Which is the best title for this passage?

A. "Lost Boys" Experienced Difficult Times.

B. Former Sudan "Lost Boy" Appears in NYC.

C. Former Sudan “Lost Boy" Becomes Chess Master.

D. African Boy Is Teaching Chess in the United States.

【題目】No poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed”, until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student. Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end, so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.

All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally, the most telling “interpretation”(解讀) of it, suggesting tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once. Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on records or on film, is obviously a special reward. But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it or, best of all, reciting it.

I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it, if there isn’t time for both. I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry. Poetry is “ a criticism of life”, and “ a heightening(提升) of life”. It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”, and it “can save your life”. It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.

I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.

【1】To have a better understanding of a poem, one should________.

A. discuss it with others B. analyze it by oneself

C. copy it down in a notebook D. practise reading it aloud

【2】According to the writer, one of the purposes of teaching English is to get students________.

A. to understand life. B. to enjoy poetry.

C. to become teachers. D. to become poets

【3】What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply?

A. More importance should be attached to the teaching of poetry.

B. Poetry is more important than any other subject.

C. One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry

D. Poetry is the foundation of all language and literature courses
