Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix?

In 1969, the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland, Ohio. It 【1】(be) unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up. The river was so polluted that it 【2】(actual) caught fire and burned. Now, years later, this river is one of 【3】_most outstanding examples of environmental cleanup.

But the river wasn’t changed in a few days 【4】even a few months. It took years of work 【5】(reduce) the industrial pollution and clean the water. Finally, that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is 【6】(clean) than ever.

Maybe you are facing an impossible situation. Maybe you have a habit 【7】is driving your family crazy. Possibly you drink too much or don’t know how to control your credit card use. When you face such an impossible situation, don’t you want a quick fix and something to change immediately?

While there are 【8】 (amaze) stories of instant transformation, for most of us the 【9】_(change) are gradual and require a lot of effort and work, like cleaning up a polluted river. Just be 【10】(patience).

【答案】

【1】was

【2】actually

【3】the

【4】or

【5】to reduce

【6】cleaner

【7】that/which

【8】amazing

【9】changes

【10】patient

【解析】

試題分析:

【1】本題考查 be 動(dòng)詞的用法。此處描述的是1969年的污染狀況,為過去時(shí);主語為單數(shù)形式 it,所以填 was。故正確答案為 was。

【2】本題考查副詞。此處修飾整個(gè)句子,加強(qiáng)語氣,表示“事實(shí)上;竟然”之意,用 actual 的副詞形式 actually。故正確答案為 actually。

【3】本題考查形容詞最高級(jí)。此處表示“最容易理解的”,最高級(jí)表達(dá)方式有 “the + 形容詞/副詞最高級(jí)”或 “the + most + 形容詞/副詞原級(jí)”。故正確答案為 the。

【4】or 考查連詞。但是河水不是在幾天甚至是幾個(gè)月改變的。or或者,在否定句中意思是:和。表遞進(jìn)關(guān)系。

【5】to reduce 考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。這里是句式:It takes some time to do sth.做某事花費(fèi)一些時(shí)間。

【6】cleaner 考查形容詞的比較級(jí)。這里有than說明前面應(yīng)該用比較級(jí)cleaner。

【7】that/ which 考查定語從句的關(guān)系詞。你有一個(gè)令家人發(fā)瘋的習(xí)慣。that/ which代替先行詞在從句中做主語。

【8】amazing 考查形容詞。這里用動(dòng)詞-ing構(gòu)成形容詞,意思是令人......的。有一些令人驚奇的馬上就變化的例子。

【9】changes 考查名詞。后面的are說明前面是名詞的復(fù)數(shù),所以用changes 。

【10】patient 考查形容詞。be后用形容詞,意思是:要有耐心。

【題目】It is a very common thing for a person to have a good friend. My good friend is Diana. She is a rich and proud girl. She often thinks that she is too good to anyone, so nobody wants to be her friend.

One day after school, I was waiting for Diana when Vivien came up to me. She gave me a biscuit and I accepted it. We talked and joked, and from then on, I began to spend more time with Vivien than with Diana. I felt a little uneasy.

After a few days, I went to see Diana with some snacks when Vivien came and sat with me. She offered me a sandwich. She also offered one to Diana, but Diana refused it. She walked away. I was angry with Diana for being so rude. “Never mind.” Vivien said, “I am used to it.”

After school, I tried to catch up with Diana. While walking home, I tried to correct her attitude, but she didn’t listen to me. She said, “Go and join your “dear” Vivien. I know you make a new friend and forget the old one.”

For the next few weeks, we didn’t talk to each other. Then, one day, Diana came to Vivien and me, saying, “ I am really sorry about what I did.

【題目】Yuoki, a restaurant in Germany, is not your everyday all-you-can-eat buffet (自助餐). For starters, there isn't an actual buffet to fill your plate. Instead, customers are seated at a table and provided with iPads which they can use to order up to five small dishes every ten minutes. They can eat as much as they want for 120 minutes, but having the food served at short intervals (間隔) allows diners to constantly assess how hungry they are and order accordingly, preventing food waste. Also, the owner, Luan Guoyu, believes, “our eyes are bigger than our stomach”, so not being able to see the cooked food at the buffet prevents people from ordering more food than they can actually eat.

But Luan Guoyu's most effective way of fighting food waste, and the one that has attracted media attention, is his 1 ($1.15) fine for food still left on the plate. “It’s called ‘ all-you-can-eat’ ” he says, adding that the extra charge is not meant to increase his income, but to act as a warning against wasting food.

Luan Guoyu's system is unique in the state of Baden-Wurttemberg, but not in Germany. Okinii, a Japanese-style restaurant in Dusseldorf, has also been charging customer, the same 1 tax for unfinished food on their plates since 2013.

With so many people living on the edge of their nations, and food waste becoming a serious problem in developed countries, it will be interesting to see if more restaurants will start carrying out the “eat up or pay up” policy. Even if they give the money from this fine to charity, it would still help them to save money in dealing with waste, so it's a win for everyone.

1What does the underlined word “assess” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A. Doubt. B. Realize.

C. Judge. D. Compare.

2What will Luan Guoyu do when people can’t finish the food on their plates?

A. He will charge them extra money.

B. He will advise them to eat up the food.

C. He will ask them to take the food away.

D. He will warn them to order less food next time.

3What is the text mainly about?

A. Various German restaurants.

B. The seriousness of food waste.

C. Secrets of managing a restaurant.

D. Special ways to fight food waste.

4What does the author think of the “eat up or pay up” policy?

A. Unfair. B. Funny.

C. Reasonable. D. Doubtful.

Dear Mr.Zhang,

We have held a discussion whether it is good or not for a top student to share a desk with a slower student.Some are for the idea.It is well known that everyone had strengths as well as weaknesses.Although slower students are not good at lessons,they might do good in another fields.In addition,top students can help slower ones with their lessons, which benefit them too.However,others don't hold the same view.They think some slower ones are always making the trouble,such as break school rules.Besides,slower students often ask top students question,which affects our studies.

In my opinion,I support the idea so we can make progress together.

Yours,

Li Hua

【題目】Restaurants in Miami Beach

Steve’s Pizza

So many pizza chains compete for the attention of tourists in South Beach, but ask a Miami Beach local where to get the best pizza and they’ll tell you about Steve’s. This is New York style pizza, handmade with care and good ingredients(成分). New branches of Steve’s Pizza are opening elsewhere in Miami, all in non-tourist areas.

Opening hours: 11 a.m.-10a.m.

Cattleman’s Steakhouse

This place is 20 miles east of the city, but local folks would probably drive 200 miles to eat here. The food is good, and the scenery is even better. Come early and wander around the grounds of Indian Cliffs Ranch, where you’ll see everything from rabbits to buffalo (水牛), then catch the sunset either before or after your meal.

Opening hours: 5p.m.-10p.m.

Absolute Baking & Café

The screen door is always swinging open at this town hot spot with giant breakfasts. Try the green chili on eggs – it’s made from scratch, as are the organic(有機(jī)的) breads. Lunch includes salads, big sandwiches and local grass-fed beef burgers. Don’t miss a square of soft, fresh carrot cake.

Opening hours: 7a.m.-2p.m.

Walt’s Wharf

Everybody’s favorite for fresh fish (some drive in from LA). Walt’s packs them in on weekends. You can’t make reservations for dinner (though they’re accepted for lunch), but it’s worth the wait for the tree fire–grilled seafood and steaks in the many-windowed ground floor or upstairs in captain’s chairs.

Opening hours: 11a.m.-10:30p.m.

1The new branches of Steve’s Pizza are mainly intended for ______.

A. New Yorkers B. tourists

C. the locals D. foreigners

【題目】As an effect of the high fuel prices spent on bus transportation, some American schools are changing to a four-day week. That means longer days instead of the traditional Monday through Friday schedule.

Having been approved for three years and beginning in the fall, students in the Maccray school district in Minnesota will be in school from Tuesday to Friday. Each school day will be 65 minutes longer. Officials say the district expects to save about sixty-five thousand dollars a year in transportation costs.

In new Mexico, the first school district changed to a four-day week in 1974 because of the Arab oil boycott(抵制). Now, 17 out of 89 districts use it.

In Custer, South Dakota, students have been going to school four days a week since 1995. Superintendent Tim Creal says the change has saved about one million dollars over just the past eight years. He sees other benefits, too. Students get more instructional time, and activities that used to take up class time are now held on non-school days. He says that in the future, the growth of online classes could make it possible to require even fewer days in school. High fuel prices are driving college students to take more online classes.

A four-day school week sounds like a great idea for students and teachers, but working parents may have to pay for child care for that fifth day.

1According to Tim Creal, what makes it possible to have even fewer days in school?

A. The increasing number of private tutors.(私人教師)

B. The development of teaching methods.

C. The increase in the number of online classes.

D. The growth in the income of Americans.

2It can be learned from the passage that______

A. students will be in school from Monday to Tuesday.

B. four-day week was first carried out in South Dakota.

C. Maccray will save one million dollars every year.

D. Minnesota state has approved the four-day week plan

3The passage is mainly about______

A. some school’s four-day week plan

B. districts using a four-day week.

C. how to save on transportation fees.

D. expense of school transportation.

【題目】A new research shows that in Britain more and more people are returning to the old tradition that the whole family has a meal at table. Worrying about the obesity(肥胖癥) and breakdown of a family, people change their eating habits so greatly, according to analysis. They find the number of the family having a meal together increases by 5% from 2002 to 2004, and most people who have meals with their family come from the rich social class.

The new discovery makes doctors and the people struggling against obesity extremely excited. Giving up the tradition that the whole family have a meal together is exactly one of the reasons for a series of problems including children’s overweight. If a child has a meal in front of the television or the computer alone, he will often eat some fast food.

Jason Collins is one of the persons returning to the old tradition. Collins is a manager of a bake house. He finds after he gets used to having a meal at home with his child, the child becomes much more obedient(聽話的). Dr. Jin is a child psychologist, and she expresses welcome to this result of the study. She says it can make parents have a very good chance to chat with the child when the whole family have a meal together.

1What makes people change their eating habit back to the old tradition in Britain?

A. Worrying about their children

B. Worrying about some social problems

C. Worrying about the living expense

D. Worrying about health and family problems

2How do the people who hope to lose weight feel about the new discovery?
