【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
Day 1
I first heard of “Show Racism (種族歧視) the Red Card” when my friend Jill asked me to support their work. Basically, it's an organization which uses professional (職業(yè)的) footballers to help fight racism in sport and society. A few weeks later, he asked me if I wanted to do a bit more for them. I thought he probably meant for me to give money or do some voluntary work. But then he told me that a group of about 20 people were getting sponsored (贊助) to play the highest ever game of rugby (橄欖球) at 5,140 meters on Mount Everest.
Day 4
We're making our way up to the base camp — that's where most climbers start their final climb to the top — and then, we'll play our game. Today we started out at 8 am. We had to cross three suspension bridges (懸索橋). One of them was so high that you couldn't see the bottom. Then we walked through some beautiful forest areas before we started a two-hour uphill hike to Namche Bazaar.
Day 10
Base camp is basically just a lot of stones and tents. The walk up was really exhausting. Maybe if I was fitter, I wouldn't find this so hard, but then it was not just me — all of us got very short of breath.
Day 11
Today we played our game. It was supposed to be a “friendly” game, and last night, we had agreed we'd just walk and not run. However, it was a really heated game and two players were even sent off. We only played for 14 minutes. I think someone would have got hurt if we'd played any longer! My team won and I scored the last try! Of course, none of this matters. What's really important is that we did it and we've raised a load of money.
(1)The first time the author was asked to do something for Jill's work, he _____.
A.got a big shock
B.accepted his request
C.looked down upon Jill
D.spread the news to 20 people
(2)What can we learn about the game of rugby on Mount Everest?
A.It got little attention.
B.It was a bit competitive.
C.It ended because someone was injured.
D.It was held on the top of Mount Everest.
(3)The author's trip to Mount Everest can be described as _____.
A.frightening and fruitless
B.relaxing and interesting
C.hard but successful
D.short but fantastic

【答案】
(1)B
(2)B
(3)C
【解析】本文是一篇記敘文,作者記錄了他去珠峰打橄欖球比賽的經(jīng)歷。

⑴考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“A few weeks later, he asked me if I wanted to do a bit more for them.”可知,作者欣然答應(yīng)了Jill的第一次請(qǐng)求。故選B。

⑵考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“it was a really heated game and two players were even sent off.”可知,盡管賽前我們說(shuō)好了打一場(chǎng)友好的、只走不跑的比賽,但真正的比賽卻很激烈,甚至有兩名隊(duì)員被罰下場(chǎng)。故選B。

⑶考查推理判斷。根據(jù)作者描述他們穿越深不見(jiàn)底的懸索橋、遭遇缺氧、只打了14分鐘的比賽以及最終籌集到了善款可知,作者認(rèn)為此次到珠峰打球賽,過(guò)程雖艱難但卻成功地達(dá)到了目的。故選C。

Last Sunday, I take part in a walking activity with my friends. Early in the morning, we joined in other participants of different age. At 8:30, they gathered at the starting point, prepared ourselves for the long distance walking. As soon as the signal was giving, we set off along the walking route around the Sports Park. Some people walked fast, when others just took their time to enjoy the fresh air and the beautiful natural scenery. My friends and I cheered each other on, and reached finishing line. Regularly activities like this not only keep us fit, but also help get us closer with nature.

【題目】How to drive greener

Buying green can produce great benefits and so can small changes in your driving behavior. 1

1. Avoid aggressive driving. Sudden starts and aggressive driving can waste your gas. 2 That’s because just one second of high-powered driving can produce the same level of CO as 30 minutes of normal driving.

2. 3 A lot of us like to push the speedometer up to 75 miles per hour on the highway. However, slowing down to 65 miles per hour can increase your fuel economy by up to 10 percent and reduce the amount of pollution coming from your car.

3. Plan ahead. When possible, plan your trips to avoid the stop-and-go of rush hour. And remember to pack all of your tasks into one trip since a warmed-up engine produces fewer emissions (排放物).

4. Pay attention at the gas station. Don’t overfill your gas tank or try to top it off because spilled (溢出) gas changes into mixture of fog and smoke and can pollute groundwater. When you are finished filling up, be sure you tighten your gas cap. 4

5. Park smart. Parking your car in the shade not only helps you avoid feeling very hot in your car, but it helps minimize evaporation (蒸發(fā)) of fuel.

6. 5 By walking, cycling or public transport, you will make a big difference for our planet. Leave your car at home just two days a week. And you will help cut greenhouse gas emissions by 1,500 pounds a year.

A. Change the oil.

B. Slow down.

C. Leave your car at home.

D. And this type of driving behavior adds to pollution.

E. In this way you can save as much as 30 gallons a year.

F. The following advice can help you save gas and contribute to the well-being of our planet.

G. Parking in your garage when possible to cut down on summer heat and keep off frost in the winter.

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms, though my teacher emphasized the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.
One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be astonished gently shaking his head, shrugging his shoulders, saying, “You don't say!” “You don't say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not an appropriate topic. “Well, I'd better change the topic.” So I said to him, “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall By the way, have you ever been there. “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It is magnificent.” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide, “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted again by his order, “You don't say!” I couldn't help asking. I said, “Didn't you say you don't say” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, “You don't say actually means really It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don't pay attention to English idioms.” Only then did I realize I had made a fool of myself. Since then, I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions.

When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you can see a lot of people (walk) with dogs. It is still true that a dog is the most useful and faithful animal in the world, but the reasons why people keep a dog (change). In the old days people used to train dogs to protect themselves against attacks by other beasts. And (late) they came (realize) that a dog was not only useful for protection, willing to obey his master. For example, when people used dogs for hunting, the dogs would not eat what was caught without (permit). But now people in the city need not protect themselves against attacks of animals. Why do they keep dogs, then? Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery. But the (important) reason is for companionship. For a child, dog is his best friend when he has no friends to play with. For young couples, a dog is child when they have no children. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection friendship.
