【解析】

試題分析: 笑聲是人們生活中不可或缺的，沒有笑聲的生活是慘淡寂寞的。那么如何在我們的生活中尋找更多的快樂，獲得更多的笑聲呢？在本文中作者對此提出了幾條建議。

【1】B 考查對上下文語境的理解。在本段中作者通過講述Nancy Alguire的經(jīng)歷，說明笑聲會感染人們，由此判斷B選項內(nèi)容符合語境，選B。

【2】G考查對上下文語境的理解。根據(jù)上文內(nèi)容和空后內(nèi)容To this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people who enjoy life and laughing.可知過得開心快樂的方法之一是要和快樂的人們在一起，讓人們的開心感染到自己，故判斷G選項可以起到承上啟下的作用，選G。

【3】D 考查對上下文語境的理解。本段中心內(nèi)容是建議人們收集自己喜歡的卡通和笑話，幽默，而D選項Keep a laughter file.“建立笑聲檔案”，內(nèi)容可以概括本段，選D。

【4】A考查對上下文語境的理解。 前后句內(nèi)容都是建議人們面對困境用笑聲去應(yīng)對，由此推斷A選項You can soften the worst blows through humor（用幽默去迎接最嚴(yán)重的打擊）內(nèi)容符合語境，選A。

【5】F考查對上下文語境的理解。前句內(nèi)容告訴人們笑聲是每個人生來具備的能力，而F選項But it’s also something that has to be developed.也指出了laughter的特點，是對上句內(nèi)容的進(jìn)一步補充，故答案選F。

Since my childhood, libraries had played an important role in my life. When I was a pupil, I regarded on my every trip to the school library as an adventure. I enjoyed my stay at the library when I could read various book I was interested in. It was for this reason why I decided to volunteer at a library. At first I had difficulty remember where each book should be shelved, and I got used to doing so soon with the help of a kind librarian. Working in the library might seem bored for most people.

【題目】One is not born able to speak a language. One is born able to make a noise. I have heard babies cry in America and in China. I can’t tell any difference. But when I hear someone from America speak English and hear someone speak Chinese, I can tell you there are a lot of differences.

I believe a common(普遍的) problem with Chinese students’ learning English is that they were not taught to think in English. They have an idea spoken in English and want to translate the idea into Chinese, then they think in Chinese of the proper reply and translate it into English. After along period of speaking the language, one begins to think in the foreign language naturally. You will learn faster if you begin to think in English at the very beginning of your study. Many students ask me: What can I do to improve my spoken English?

【題目】I am 26. I’m clear that I’m never going to catch up with Mother Teresa. But I want to do something to help people every single day like her.

Everybody thinks we just serve food and soda. The safety training is serious and stressful. Caring for 49 people in a business class in 90 minutes is not easy. I had a roommate who was a waitress; she just left a candle and a table cloth burning, and I used a fire extinguisher (滅火器) to put out the fire. If something goes bad at her job, she calls the police. But if something happens up in the air, it’s up to us.

I’m single and have no kids. I’ve flown every Christmas since 1995. If I fly, someone else can be with their kids. Christmas in an airport can be depressing, but it’s the little things that make a difference.

________It’s hard to put on a smile and just pretend everything is great when it isn’t. I’ve seen co-workers lose a family member the day before a trip and just pull themselves together (take control of their feelings and believe in a calm way). At the end of a 14-hour flight, it’s like, “It was really nice to help you, but I’m ready for you to get off the plane.” Those last 15 minutes can be the longest 15 minutes of your life. You can’t wait to turn off the flight attendant’s voice and get something to eat without anyone saying “Excuse me.”

Sometimes I go all day and never hear a “please” or a “thank you.” When you say thank you, it’s huge. It makes us feel like you actually see us as fellow humans. We’re up there together at a height of 30,000 feet, enjoying the miracle (奇跡) of the modern flight.

【1】What’s the author’s attitude towards Mother Teresa?

A. Grateful B. Fearful C. Doubtful D. Admiring

【2】How did the author like her roommate’s job?

A. It was the same as hers B. It was more interesting than hers

C. It was easier than hers D. It was more serious than hers

【3】Why does the author fly every Christmas?

A. Because she has nowhere to go.

B. Because she’s trying to be a helpful co-worker.

C. Because she owes her co-workers some favors.

D. Because she’d like to earn more money.

【4】What does the author imply by saying the underlined sentence “We’re not robots”?

A. Flight attendants are not stronger than robots.

B. Flight attendants also experience emotions.

C. Flight attendants get tired while robots don’t.

D. Flight attendants need to rest now and then.

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。

We all use money every day. It is essential because we can pay money for whatever we want.Money is recognized as banknotes and coins.

However,many years ago people couldn’ t go to the shop and buy what they wanted.They had to get what they wanted through the barter trade(實物交易).It was really difficult,for the barter often depended on coincidence of wants.For example,the seller of grain has to find a buyer who wants to buy grain and who also could offer something the seller wants to buy.And one more example,if a wheat farmer needs what a fruit farmer produces,a direct exchange is impossible because seasonal fruit would spoil before the grain harvest.The solution is to trade fruit for wheat indirectly through a third intermediate commodity(中間的商品),such as cattle,salt,shells,wine.However,commodity money had their disadvantages.For example,cattle,fur,precious stones couldn’ t be cut into smaller pieces and it was inconvenient to keep and transport them.Thus coins were invented.

The earliest known coins in the western world came from Lydia in about 650 B.C.Greek cities,the Great Persian Empire and Roman Empire quickly adopted the new useful technique of metal currency.And by the end of the 6th century,coinages were common throughout the region.However,coins as well as commodity money had many disadvantages.For instance,coins quickly show wear(磨損) and they usually have small value,so it’ s difficult to count large sums of coins.

At first,paper money was used in China in about 650 A.D.After then,it was used in Persia and Japan.In Europe,paper money was firstly produced in the Netherlands in the 16th century and in the USA in the 17th century.Paper money is worthless but symbolic.In other words,paper money is just a note.It has a purchasing power because the government announces it as money and citizens accept it universally.

【1】The writer explains the difficulty of barter trade by_______.

A. telling stories B. using examples

C. presenting a theory D. making a comparison

【2】What do we know about the early coins?

A. They usually had large value.

B. They were first used in Greece.

C. They still had many disadvantages.

D. People didn’ t like the metal currency.

【3】Paper money was used earlier in_______.

A. Rome B. Greece

C. the USA D. the Netherlands

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A. Function of money. B. History of money.

C. Invention of money. D. Types of money.

There is one type of illness in the world that affects more people than anything else and is very deadly. What is this illness? It is depression. Serious depression requires professional treatment. 【1】 Everyone’s circumstances are different, but the causes of self-induced (自我誘導(dǎo))depression are common: low self-esteem, hurtful thinking and a bad attitude.【2】

1. Examine ourselves and set a goal.

First we must look at ourselves, truly and honestly examining our motives for what we wish to achieve. If you are dissatisfied because you feel you haven’t or can’t do anything, then one step is needed—to set goals.

【3】Think of them as sand; one grain may be insignificant but as a group they form the beach. Once you have set and attained small goals for yourself, move on to slightly larger, more challen ging goals.

2.【4】

There are a number of factors that can make us think negatively and one of those is diet. In my opinion, a person who eats a lot of take-out and fast food is feeding their body junk. Start by eating better foods which give the body much NEEDED minerals. If your physical body is happy, it’s much easier for your mental body or “thinking ability” to be happy.

3. Think about good things and smile

Think about good memories you had, or generally think of things that make you smile.

【5】A smile can be the difference between an average day and a great day.

If you follow these steps, positive change is inevitable.

A. Go on a diet and keep a good figure.

B. Remember, everything you wear costs money but to wear a smile is free.

C. However, self-induced depression is something each of us can change.

D. Feed ourselves well and be physically health.

E. Always start your goals relatively small and easy to attain.

F. Good memories help you keep a good state of mind.

G. So how can we change the way we think, feel, and cultivate a cheerful attitude?
