【解析】

1.答案：A　根據(jù)2空后的“there wouldn't be any birthday visitors”可知，Annie因為沒有人為她過生日而感到有點孤獨(lonely)。

誤區(qū)警示：考生容易誤選alone。做好此題的關鍵在于正確地理解lonely和alone的區(qū)別。lonely表示“孤獨的，寂寞的”，帶有濃重的感情色彩；alone意為“獨自的，單獨的”，側重說明獨自一人，強調的是客觀事實。

2.2】答案：B　作者給Annie購買禮物，暗示著Annie的家境不是很富裕。finances表示“財務情況”。

3.3】答案：C　根據(jù)13空后的“The real fun was packing them to be sent.”可知，作者想給Annie寄(send)賀卡和禮物。

4.4】答案：D　Annie收到禮物自然會感到高興，brighten表示 “使快活起來”，符合語境。

5.5】答案：C　作者想給Annie寄生日禮物，必然需要她的學校地址，因此選address。

6.6】答案：A　下文講述了作者給Annie準備禮物的過程，因此此處指作者有了一個主意(idea)。

7.7】答案：B　作者想(thought)也許需要再多一點慶祝生日時的歡樂氛圍。

8.8】答案：C　作者買了一些氣球、生日帽和其他的(other)新穎小巧而價廉的物品。

9.9】答案：C　11空前的“making the recording”表明，作者是用錄音機(recorder)錄下人們的歌聲。

10.0】答案：B　12空后的“so it really sounded like we had a party going on”暗示著人們?yōu)樗?sing)了生日快樂歌。

11.1】答案：D　其他人發(fā)現(xiàn)(found out) 我們在做什么時也加入進來。

12.2】答案：A　作者本來請了三個人唱歌，結果其他人發(fā)現(xiàn)了也跟著一起唱。add表示“添加，增加”。

13.3】答案：B　3空后的“a card and maybe a small gift”表明作者起初想買賀卡和禮物，因此選originally，表示“起初，原來”。

14.4】答案：C　此空后的“it was like opening a mini birthday party”暗示作者在精心布置(arranged) 一切。

15.5】答案：D　在把它們寄出去之前(before)的最后時刻作者又添加了一包紙杯蛋糕和一盒生日蠟燭。

16.6】答案：A　文章開頭的“was away for her first semester at college”表明Annie在學校，因此選dormitory“寢室”

17.7】答案：B　20空后的“it was the most fun birthday she would remember”表明Annie很高興(happy)。

18.8】答案：C　作者很高興Annie有一些朋友可以與她一起分享(share)這特別的一天。

19.9】答案：C　這是一個既容易又有趣的(fun)事情。fun意為“有趣的”；funny意為“使人發(fā)笑的，滑稽的”。

誤區(qū)警示：考生容易誤選funny。做好此題的關鍵在于正確地理解fun和funny的區(qū)別。fun除了作不可數(shù)名詞外，還可以作形容詞，意為“有趣的”，而funny意為“使人發(fā)笑的，滑稽的，奇異的”。

20.20】答案：D　Annie告訴(told) 作者這會是她能記住的最有趣的一個生日。

Sharing Beauty

It was in October. I was aimlessly wandering down the street, heading into a most gloriously beautiful sunset. I had an urge to speak to someone on the street to share that beauty, but it seemed everyone was in a hurry.

I took the next-best action. Quickly I ducked into a department store and asked the lady behind the counter if she could come outside for just a minute. She looked at me as though I were from some other planet. She hesitated, and then seemingly against her better judgment, she moved toward the door.

When she got outside I said to her, “Just look at that sunset! Nobody out here was looking at it and I just had to share it with someone.”

For a few seconds we just looked. Then I said, “God is in his heaven and all is right with the world.” I thanked her for coming out to see it; she went back inside and I left. It felt good to share the beauty.

Four years later my situation changed greatly. I came to the end of a twenty-year marriage. I was alone and on my own for the first time in my life. I lived in a trailer park which, at the time, I considered a real come-down, and I had to do my wash in the community laundry room.

One day, while my clothes were going around, I picked up a magazine and read an article about a woman who had been in similar circumstances. She had come to the end of a marriage, moved to a strange community, and the only job she could find was one she disliked: clothing sales in a department store.

Then something that happened to her changed everything. She said a woman came into her department store and asked her to step outside to look at a sunset. The stranger had said, “God is in his heaven and all is right with the world,” and she had realized the truth in that statement. From that moment on, she turned her life around.

1.The author asked the woman to go outside to ______.

A. admire the sunset B. cheer her up C. offer some help D. have a chat

2.Four years later, the author ______.

A. found her dream job

B. put an end to her marriage

C. worked in a laundry room

D. lived in the same community

3.After reading the article in the magazine, the author was probably______.

A. disappointed B. puzzled C. inspired D. overjoyed

It’s 5:00 in the morning when the alarm rings in my ears. I roll out of bed and walk blindly through the dark into the bathroom. I turn on the light and put on my glasses. The house is still as I walk downstairs while my husband and three kids sleep peacefully. Usually I go for a long run, but today I choose my favorite exercise DVD insanity. Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes. My heart races as I face my body to finish each movement. As I near the end of the exercise, I feel extremely tired, but a smile is of my face. It’s not a smile because the DVD is over, but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.

Some people enjoy shopping, smoking, food, work, or even chocolate. But I need exercise to get through each day. Some shake heads when they see me run through the town. Others get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother’s chocolate cake. They raise their eyebrows, surprised by my “ no thank you,” or by my choice to have a salad. Over the years, I have learned it’s okay to just say “ no”. I shouldn’t feel sorry for refusing food that I don’t want to eat.

So what drives me to roll out of bed at 5:00 a.m.? What gives me the reason to just say to ice cream? Commitment. A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety, increases self –confidence and energy, extends life and above all improve my body shape. This is the point where a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my favorite pair of jeans that now fit just right. It’s through commitment and sweat that I can make a difference within myself inside and out.

1.Why is there a smile on the author’s face in the morning?

A. Because she sees her family sleeping peacefully.

B. Because she finishes her favorite exercise

C. Because she enjoys the interesting DVD

D. Because she feels a sense of achievement

2.Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2?

A. She doesn’t treat others politely

B. She likes to make others surprised

C. Others don’t understand what she does

D. Others try to help her by offering her food

3.What does the underlined word “commitment” in the last paragraph mean?

A. Good health B. Firm belief

C.A strong power D.A regular half

4. What can we learn about the author from the text?

A. She acts in a strange way

Jobs and work do much more than most of us realize to provide happiness and contentment.We're all used to thinking that work provides the material things of life—the goods and services that make our modern civilization possible.But we are much less conscious of the degree to which work provides the more important psychological well?being that can make the difference between a full and an empty life.

Historically，work has been associated with slavery and sin (罪惡)and punishment.And in our own day we are used to bearing traditional complaints.Against this background，it may well come as a surprise to learn that not only psychologists but other behavioral scientists have come to accept the positive contribution of work to the individual's happiness and sense of personal achievement.Work is more than a necessity for most human beings；it is the focus of their lives，the source of their identity and creativity.

Rather than a punishment of a burden，work is the opportunity to realize one's potential.And the opposite is true，too.For large numbers of people，the absence of work is harmful to their health.Retirement often brings many problems surrounding the “What do I do with myself？”question，even though there may be no financial cares.Large numbers of people regularly get headaches and other illnesses on weekends when they don't have their jobs to go to，and must take care of themselves.It has been observed that unemployment，quite apart from financial pressures，brings enormous psychological troubles and that many individuals'conditions become worse rapidly when jobless.

But why？Why should work be such a significant source of human satisfaction？A good share of the answer rests in the kind of pride that is stimulated by the job，by the activity of accomplishing.

1.Which of the following statements can NOT be learned from the passage?

A．People feel happier and more content than they realize when working.

B．Work is likely to provide you with the chance of achieving your potential.

C．Happiness can only be gained through working.

D．A lot of people will suffer physically and psychologically without work.

2.Traditionally，people are used to believing ________.

A．work is related to negative aspects

B．happiness has nothing to do with work

C．identity and creativity depend on work

D．work is not only a necessity for humans but the focus of their lives

3.What would the author probably discuss in the following paragraph?

A．What the proper way to balance work and life is.

B．How work brings people pride in accomplishment.

C．Which is more important：the material things of life or psychological well?being.

D．How people overcome the problems arising from retirement.

4.Which best describes the author's attitude towards work in the passage?

A．Doubtful. B．Concerned.

C．Approving. D．Neutral.
