-What _____ surprise to all his fans!（　�。�
A．the； theB．the； aC．a； aD．a； the

分析 -我聽說這位著名影星昨天和一位外國歌手結(jié)婚了．-這對他的歌迷來說該是多么意外�。�

解答 答案：C 題干中foreign singer是表示泛指，要用不定冠詞；what a surprise真想不到，一個意外或驚喜．故選C．

點評 冠詞是一種虛詞，本身不能獨立使用，只能放在名詞前幫助說明名詞所指的人或事物，它是英語詞性中最小的一類，只有三個，一種是不定冠詞a，an；一種是定冠詞the．此外也有些特定場合不用冠詞，即通常所稱的零冠詞．不定冠詞表示泛指，定冠詞表示特指．

18．Two of the hardest things to accomplish in this world are to acquire wealth by honest effort and，having gained it，to learn how to use it properly．Recently 1walked into the locker room of a rather well-known golf club after finishing a round．It was in the late afternoon and most of the members had left for their homes．But a half-dozen or so men past middle age were still seated at tables talking aimlessly and drinking more than was good for them．These same men can be found there day after day．a(chǎn)nd，strangely enough，each one of these men had been a man of affairs and wealth，successful in business and respected in the community．If material prosperity were the chief necessity for happiness，then each one should have been happy．Yet，it seemed to me，something very important was missing，else there would not have been the constant effort to escape the realities of life through scotch and soda．They knew，each one of them，that their productivity had ceased（停止）．When a fruit tree ceases to bear its fruit，it is dying．And it is even so with man．
What 1s the answer to a long and happy existence in this world of ours？I think I found it long ago in a passage from the book of Genesis which caught my eye while I was looking through my Bible．The words were few，but they became memorably impressed on my mind："In the sweat of the face shall you eat the bread．"
To me，that has been a challenge from my earliest recollections （memories）．In fact，the battle of life，of existence，is a challenge to everyone．The immortal words of St．Paul，too，have been and always will be a great inspiration to me．At the end of the road 1want to be able to feel that I have fought a good fight，I have finished the course，I have kept the faith．

41．Which of the following is indicated in the first paragraph？C
A．Wealth results from honest effort．
B．The men seated at tables in the locker room are lost in the significance of life．
C．For some people，no way can be found to escape the realities of life other than scotch and soda．
D．The men acquire wealth by planting fruit trees．
42．The underlined sentence"In the sweat of the face shall you eat the bread"means"B"．
A．Bread tastes delicious when sweat pours off your face
B．No pains，no gains
C．Failure is the mother of success
D．Bread comes from the sweat on your face
43．We learn from the passage that the authorB．
A．was a wealthy person in the community
B．held．a(chǎn) positive attitude towards an active life
C．was fond of associating with celebrities （名人）
D．kept a secret of the reason why he was so impressed
44．What is implied in the passage by the writer？D
A．To use wealth properly，eat，drink and be merry．
B．Where there is a will，there is a wav．
C．As life is but like a dream，a man is like a fruit tree．
D．If you cease to struggle，you cease to live．
45．The passage above is most probably taken fromA．
 A．a(chǎn)n autobiography    B．a(chǎn) photography book

3．Father's Garden
My father was always a good（酷愛的） gardener．One of my earliest memories is standing without shoes in the freshly tilled（翻耕的） soil，my hands blackened from digging in the ground．
As a child，I loved following Dad around in the garden．I remember Dad pushing the tiller（耕作機(jī)） ahead in perfectly straight lines．Dad loved growing all sorts of things：yellow and green onions，watermelons almost as big as me，rows of yellow corn，and our favorite---red tomatoes．
As I grew into a teenager，I didn't get so excited about gardening with Dad．Instead of magical land of possibility，it had turned into some kind of prison．As Dad grew older，his love for gardening never disappeared．After all the kids were grown and had started families of their own，Dad turned to gardening like never before．Even when he was diagnosed with cancer，he still took care of his garden．
But then，the cancer，bit by bit，invaded his body．I had to do the things he used to do．What really convinced me that Dad was dying was the state of his garden that year．The rows and rows of multicolored vegetables were gone．Too tired to weed them，he simply let them be．He only planted tomatoes．
For the first few years after he died，I couldn't even bear to look at anyone's garden without having strong memories pour over me like cold water from a bucket．Three years ago，I decided to plant my own garden and started out with just a few tomatoes．That morning，after breaking up a fair amount of soil，something caught the corner of my eye and I had to smile．It was my eight-year-old son Nathan，happily playing in the freshly tilled soil．
36．Why did the author like the garden when he was a child？B
A．He wanted to be a garden-crazy like his father．
B．He loved being in the garden with his father．
C．The garden was full of his favorite food．
D．The garden was just freshly tilled．
37．When all the kids started their own families，the author's fatherC．
A．stopped his gardening．
B．turned to other hobbies．
C．devoted more to gardening．
D．focused on planting tomatoes．
38．What happened to the garden when the author's father was seriously ill？B
A．There was a great harvest．
B．The garden was almost deserted．
C．No plant grew in the garden at all．
D．The author's son took charge of the garden．
39．Why did the author start his garden with tomatoes？A
A．He wanted to honor his father．
B．His son liked the fields of tomatoes．
C．He only knew how to grow tomatoes．
D．He thought tomatoes were easy to manage．

6．PALO AITO，California-"Switching off the television may help prevent children from getting fatter--even if they do not change their diet or increase the amount they exercise，"US researchers said last week．
A study of 192 third and fourth grades students，generally aged eight and nine，found that children who cut the number of hours spent watching television gained nearly two pounds （0.91kg ） less over a one-year period than those who did not change their television diet．
"The findings are important because they show that weight loss can only be the result of a reduction in television viewing and not any other activity，"said Thomas Robinson，a pediatrician （兒科專家）at Stanford University．
"American children spend an average of more than four hours per day watching television and videos，and rates of childhood being very fat have doubled over the past 20 years，"Robinson said．
In the study，presented this week to the Pediatric Academic Societies'annual meeting in San Francisco，the researchers persuaded about 100 of the students to reduce their television viewing by one-quarter to one-third．
Children watching fewer hours of television showed a significantly smaller increase in waist size and had less body fat than other students who continue their normal television viewing，even though neither group ate a special diet nor took part in any extra exercise．
"One explanation for the weight loss could be the children unstuck to the television may simply have been moving around and burning off calories，"Robinson said．
"Another reason might be due to eating fewer meals in front of the television．Some studies have suggested that eating in front of the TV encourages people to eat more，"Robinson added．
39．What do the first two paragraphs imply？D
A．Children in the US are tired of watching TV．
B．Watching TV can help children to loose weight．
C．Younger children watch more TV than older ones．
D．More TV viewing is harmful to children's health．
40．In average，the time American children spend watching TVA．
A．is more than four hours a day
B．is less than four hours a day
C．has doubled in the last twenty years
D．is more than doing any other things
41．The researchers made sure the students didn't change their diet in order toD．
A．keep them from getting too heavy
B．enable them to do more exercises
C．reduce their time watching TV
D．make their findings more believable
42．According to the passage，why can watching TV increase kids'weight？A
A．They usually eat more while watching TV．
B．They change their diet while watching TV．
C．They burn off more calories while watching TV．
D．They don't want to take exercise while watching TV．
