【解析】

這是一篇應(yīng)用文。本文介紹了一個(gè)旅游項(xiàng)目的情況，包括參觀地、價(jià)格和提供服務(wù)等信息。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Places you’ll explore部分中And nowhere was it more popular than in St Andrews, the Home of Golf.可知最受歡迎的地方莫過(guò)于高爾夫之鄉(xiāng)St Andrews。由此可知，在St Andrews，高爾夫曾經(jīng)是一項(xiàng)非常受歡迎的運(yùn)動(dòng)。故選D。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Prices部分中 Adult price: 45 per person Discount price: 40 per person (Seniors over 60 and children between 5 and 15; unfortunately, we don’t allow children under 5 years old on the tour)可知普通成年人票價(jià)為每人45英鎊，60歲以上及5-15歲之間的孩子票價(jià)為40英鎊。由此可知，一位48歲的父親帶著16歲的女兒和5歲的兒子需要買兩張45英鎊的票及一張40英鎊的票，一共支付130英鎊。故選C。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Customer reviews部分中Grant was an excellent and intelligent guide who cherishes his Scottish heritage.可知Grant是一位優(yōu)秀而睿智的導(dǎo)游，他珍視自己的蘇格蘭傳統(tǒng)。由此可知，旅行提供了導(dǎo)游服務(wù)。故選A。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)Customer reviews部分中A great day out. Fully recommend the tour. Gillian and Eric were not only friendly but very knowledgeable.可知外出的美好一天。完全推薦這趟旅行。Gillian和Eric不僅友好而且知識(shí)淵博。由此可以推斷出，通過(guò)呈現(xiàn)兩位顧客贊美的評(píng)價(jià)性語(yǔ)言，來(lái)增加此行程的吸引力和誘惑力。故選B。

【題目】 Earlier this year I removed all Internet services from my home, which was very upsetting at first, but I have lived that way. 【1】

I was not content with the time I was wasting—I felt I could do more purposeful things than spend it on the Internet. If there is something I want to research on the Internet.

【3】 I log on (登錄) to watch some videos or laugh at funny pictures, but I go on the Internet with the intention of doing these things. Whenever I’m on the Internet now, I use it in a deliberate way, a way that benefits me and my life, and a way that adds value.

【4】 I could focus on writing without being disturbed. I have more time to read, to write, to think, to exercise and to walk. Because I’ m out of the house and there are people around. I meet new people. Additionally, I have more time for friends and I feel less stressed and my thoughts are clearer. My mind is more focused on important things. 【5】 Plus, I no longer long for the Internet like I once did.

【題目】 Chinese Paper Cutting or Jianzhi is the first type of paper-cutting design, since paper was invented in the Eastern Han Dynasty in China.

It’s a very distinguishing visual art of Chinese handicrafts. The art form later spread to other parts of the world with different areas adopting their own cultural styles. After hundreds of year’s development, now they’ve become a very popular means of decoration among country folk, especially women. The paper-cuts are also used to decorate doors and windows, and therefore they’re sometimes referred to “chuang hua”, meaning Window Flower. Paper-cuts are chiefly used as decorations. However, today, Chinese paper-cuts are also used for religious and ceremonial purpose, and they’re buried with the dead and burned at funerals.

Chinese people believe the red paper-cuts on the door can bring good fortune and happiness to the whole family. The paper-cuts are more often seen during traditional Chinese festivals, particularly in Chinese New Year, the Spring Festival. They’re also given as gifts to friends or other family members.

Paper-cuttings aren’t produced by machine, but by hand. There’re two methods of manufacture (制造): one uses scissors, the other uses knives. Knife cuttings are fashioned by putting several layers of paper on a relatively soft foundation (襯底). Following a pattern, the artist cuts the motif into the paper with a sharp knife he usually holds vertically. The advantage of knife-cuttings is that considerably more paper cuttings can be made in one operation than with scissor cuttings.

It’s easy to learn about cutting a piece of paper but difficult to master it with perfection. One must grasp the knife in an upright fashion and press evenly (均勻地) on the paper with some strength. Flexibility is required but any hesitation will damage the whole image.

People find hope and comfort in expressing wishes with paper-cutting. For instance: for a wedding ceremony, red paper-cuttings are a traditional decoration on the tea set, the dressing table glass, and on other furniture. A big red paper character ‘Xi’ (happiness) is a traditional must on the newlywed’s (新婚夫婦) door.

【1】It can be learned from the second paragraph that ___________.

A.paper-cuts are mainly used as presents

B.females are better at paper-cutting than males

C.paper-cutting varies from area to area

D.paper-cuts are used in various ceremonies but funerals

【2】What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?

A.Forms of paper-cutting.B.Means of paper-cutting.

C.Advantages of knife cuttings.D.Characteristics of paper-cutting.

【3】From the fifth paragraph, we can learn that ___________.

A.paper-cutting requires great strength

B.pause in paper-cutting makes no difference

C.it is by no means easy to acquire paper-cutting skills

D.it is fashionable to learn paper-cutting

【4】The author develops the last paragraph by ___________.

A.using examplesB.making comparisons

C.analyzing causesD.describing processes

One day when I was walking home, I had heard a noise behind me. It was a pretty dog, and he followed me home. Dad was surprised, saying she looked as the Smiths’ pet dog. Realizing she was very tired, I gave her a bath but kept her company until she felt comfortably.

A big surprise came next morning, when I found her with four little cute puppies! I was in great excite. Before long Dad led Mrs. Smith in, that thanked us for taking care of the dog. She asked whether I wanted to keep one of them — I was thrilling for the sudden joy!
