【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
“You're leaving again?” asked my daughter as she saw me packing my carry-on.
More than her words, it was her face that pierced (刺穿) my heart ---I could see how crestfallen she was.
“It's only for two nights, “I explained.
But that didn't matter to her. It was just one more trip after barely being home for five days. I decided in that moment to travel less whenever possible and I managed to avoid flying altogether for most of the summer. As a result, it was a summer full of discoveries. I realized that my kids really were proud of me. In their time away from me they had learned lessons I couldn't have imagined.
Recently I began traveling a lot again. But this time it was different, mainly due to the fact that I had seen firsthand that my children value strong female role models. They realize that hard work pays off. Being away from them even for a day at a time in many ways had done them a lot of good.
In particular, being a working mom is teaching my daughter how important it is to be independent and that you can follow your dreams. In many ways, her idea of a professional woman is much more realistic than what I imagined when I was her age. I think that even at nine years old she already knows that for all the success you might achieve, there is a price to pay, whether it's long hours, spending time away from those you love, or simply not having the energy to have fun at times. I know the wishes I would devote all of my time to her, but honestly, even if I didn't work I would rather she learned not to depend on me for everything, She needs to realize that she can fly on her own --- and that isn't possible if I am hovering over her every single second of the day .
I have also realized that having a career sets a good example for my son. He is not afraid of a strong woman, and has a great respect for them. When he's older, this will help him build healthier relationship.
Therefore, for all the working moms out there who work long hours, remember to value the positive lessons you might be teaching your kids.
(1)The underlined word “crestfallen” in Paragraph 2 can best be replaced by “_________” .
A.upset
B.excited
C.lucky
D.guilty
(2)How did the author feel about traveling a lot after the summer ?
A.She felt even worse than ever.
B.She felt quite proud of herself.
C.She felt very sorry for her kids.
D.She felt much better than before.
(3)The author hopes that her daughter will _______________________.
A.become more and more independent
B.be realistic about all her problems
C.become a very successful lady
D.become an honest person
(4)What is the author's main purpose in writing the text ?
A.To tell stories about her two kids
B.To show how to teach kids about careers
C.To encourage women to work as hard as possible
D.To prove kids can benefit a lot from working moms

【答案】
(1)A
(2)D
(3)A
(4)D
【解析】這是一篇記敘文,作者通過親身經(jīng)歷告訴我們職業(yè)母親對孩子們的巨大影響,孩子們會從中受益很多。

⑴考查猜測詞義。根據(jù)第一段中的“You're leaving again?“以及第二段中的” More than her words, it was her face that pierced (刺穿) my heart”“可知作者又要離開,從女兒的話語和表情都能看出孩子不高興,沮喪。crestfallen“垂頭喪氣的,氣餒的”和A項(xiàng)同義,故選A.

⑵考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“As a result, it was a summer full of discoveries. I realized that my kids really were proud of me. In their time away from me they had learned lessons I couldn't have imagined.”可知作者夏天旅行后收獲很多,對孩子們也有很大影響,所以說感覺比以前好多了。故選D.

⑶考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中的“In particular, being a working mom is teaching my daughter how important it is to be independent and that you can follow your dreams.”可知作者希望女兒像媽媽一樣越來越堅(jiān)強(qiáng),故選A.

⑷考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中的“being a working mom is teaching my daughter how important it is to be independent and that you can follow your dreams. I have also realized that having a career sets a good example for my son.”和最后一段中的'Therefore, for all the working moms out there who work long hours, remember to value the positive lessons you might be teaching your kids."可知作者告訴我們職業(yè)母親對孩子們的巨大影響,孩子們會受益很多,故選D.

It has been a long time since I did anything good for the environment. Feeling responsible to protect the environment, I decided to take the action again. I told my idea to my friends and we planned to plant tree on the hill in the countryside. We came to the foot of the hill and selected a place where looked suitably and settled down. We spend a few hours digging holes and placing the young seedlings. Then we wrote our wishes on cards one to one and buried it deep down the roots of the trees. We also took a lot of pictures. We were such busy that we didn't realize that it was time to go back. I felt really glad that we made difference to the environment.

【題目】It’s good to make mistakes,and here is why.

First of all,mistakes are a clear sign that we are trying new things.It’s always good to try new things because when we are trying new things,we are growing.If we never try anything new,how can we improve?The simple answer is,“We can’t”.

Another good thing about mistakes is that when we are making them,we are learning.Consider this—Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb.When asked how it felt to fail that many times,he said that he had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work.

When we make a mistake,we are much closer to success.Because every time we make a mistake,we eliminate one of the things that keeps us from success.

But all this doesn’t mean that we should go through life without considering the consequences of a mistake. Instead,when we try something new,we have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesn’t work out the way we want it to,we will be in a position to try again.We all have limited resources—in the form of time and money—so we shouldn’t blow them all on one approach to a problem.It’s best that we realize it probably won’t be perfect the first time and allocate these resources appropriately so we can learn,make corrections, and try again.Only by accepting and using our mistakes in this way can we make significant advances in our lives.

There is an old saying that goes,“If you’re not making mistakes,you’re not trying hard enough.”So go forth and make mistakes.

1Which can be used to replace the underlined word "eliminate" in Paragraph 4?

A. make up for B. get rid of

C. accept D. expect

2What do we know from the fifth paragraph?

A. We should ignore the possible consequences.

B. We should accept the outcome willingly.

C. We should make some limits for our next try.

D. We should avoid making the same mistakes.

3What is the text mainly about?

A. Dealing with mistakes. B. Making mistakes.

C. Making progress. D. Benefiting from mistakes.

4What may the writer suggest we say to ourselves when making a mistake?

A. Never mind,I tried my beat. B. Great!Now I have learned something.

C. This is a waste of time. D. Look at this mess.I should just give up.

【題目】Happy,angry,amazed—these are some of the emotions we like to express these days when we're sending a message on our smartphones.That's a quick way of telling someone how we're feeling.Yes,emojis have become a vital tool for communication.

The emoji was first invented in Japan in the late 1990s and the word "emoji" comes from the Japanese words for "picture" and "character".The number of different images has dramatically increased since then and now we have a picture for every mood or situation.

So now we are giving this new creation the visual "thumbs-up" but have you thought why we've become so addicted to using emojis? Professor Vyv Evans has written a book called The Emoji Code, saying "increasingly, what we're finding is that digital communication is taking over certain aspects of face-to-face interaction...one of the reasons why emojis are so popular is that they really do enable us to express our emotional selves more effectively."

Another advantage of emojis is that they are an international language—they don't use words but some pictures so they can be easily interpreted whatever your native language is. However, the emojis can sometimes be misinterpreted—if a friend sends you an emoji of a hammer, you may think he/she is angry when really he/she is saying he/she is clumsy!

Emojis are a good way for showing similar feelings. But as linguist(語言學(xué)家) Neil Cohn says, "To many, emojis are an exciting evolution of the way we communicate, but to others, they are a linguistic Armageddon(大決戰(zhàn))."It does show there is a lot more to our communication than words alone but does this mean the decline in traditional writing?

1How do emojis help people in communication?

A. They can interpret the foreign languages.

B. They will take the place of face-to-face interaction.

C. People can express their emotions effectively with emoijs.

D. People can express themselves clearly with emojis at any time.

2Which of the following words can replace the underlined "thumbs-up"in Paragraph 3?

A. doubt B. praise

C. ignorance D. attention

3What do you probably mean by sending your friend an emoji of B hammer?

A. You are awkward. B. You need a hammer.

C. He/She loses his/her temper. D. He/She should apologize to you.

4What is Neil Cohn's opinion on emojis?

A. They are not used by linguists.

B. They will take over the traditional writing.

C. They will become an international language.

D. They bring convenience and challenges to language.
